Wham-O Toys Coming To Videogames…Kind Of A Big Deal

slipslide.jpgYou might not know Wham-O Toys, but you've certainly heard of their biggest properties: the hula hoop, Frisbee, hacky sack and Slip 'N Slide. They just signed an agreement with FOG Studios to bring their properties to the videogame world—and from the looks of it, mostly the Wii.

FOG speaks of the possibilities of Frisbee on the Wiimote, hula hooping with the Wii Fit board and branching out to other systems, including PCs, as motion technology reaches more platforms. They also cite dance pads as having potential for hacky sack, which was probably done better by the EyeToy. As for Slip 'N Slide, I cannot wait to buy that peripheral...or to see Reggie try a Wiislide on stage wearing nothing but a Speedo and blue footies.
