Wii and PS3 clone a real "Winner".

Wii and PS3 clone a real "Winner".

Not again. Yes, the Wii has gotten it's fair share of public attention and praise over the last couple of years, so much in fact that people are creating their own rip-offs to get in on some of the money making. The latest on the list of course is...... "Winner".

Yes, this new videogame console has been dubbed "Winner". As you can see, it uses a motion sensitive controller/pointing device just like the Wii, but also allows for MP3 playback, karaoke, and has a built-in Photo Channel player. Put simply, look at it as a very VERY poor attempt at a PSWii.



Quote:
The Winner provides fun, interactive ways for you. Wherever there is a Television. With Winner, you can participate in sports, increase your fitness, and socialize with family and friends, watch your health, educate yourself and your family and engage in leisure time activities. A distinguishing feature of the console is it's Wireless Controller which is used as a handheld pointing device and can detect acceleration and orientation in three dimensions via the built-in G-sensor. Additionally, players can also use Winner as MP3 player, karaoke, and digital photo player.
Unique enough right..... RIGHT? Well anyway, if that didn't impress you then the consoles specifications will.

Dude, that's so fake and weak, it's not even funny... I like how people THINK they can even come close to touching the Wii with their own Rip-Offs...

I like the idea of combining 2 Major game systems in one. But this one looks like an epic phail.

Great news article Budge.

Lolz, good name. But seriously how can people advertise it's "unique" when EVERYONE knows that the Wii is the one everyone cares about w/ the motion sensor? I always wonder what games these rip-offs actually have. I might buy it........just to smash it into oblivion and burn it. I did it w/ a ripoff DS before lol. Sure it'll give them money, but it gives me the pleasure of beating on a wannabee.

They can try, if they want to fail.
