At least there hasn't been news of it coming to the US..... yet.

This thread isn't really meant to make fun of the Wii or Wii fans, but man, this had me laughing. I mean, come on. lol
I remember seeing something like this in a cartoon a long time ago. I think it was Rocko's Modern Life.

Well, if I were you, I'd start by doing that before I decided to post anything, let alone call someone gullible.

You're not going to have much luck writing to a Chinese company in English.

I don't think this could work yet?
Smell generators require fluids, that You need to refill. This thing doesn't look like it can be refilled.
And the smell differs per game? But what information does it use to determine the smell with for a game? Or is it preprogrammed? If that's the case how does it update?
Hmm, i have some doubts about this. And with the sweating smell... they've got to be kidding. Who would want something like that?

it is an interesting idea, but for the price that the console almost cost, is a bad idea.

I know it is fake, dont worry. Just saying the idea is good

Why would I want my living room smelling like sweat when I play Wii sports, oh wait, I dont play that any more. Wait does that mean its gonna smell like Epona's crap when I play twilight princess? Also, why? And finally they should make this for all consoles so I can smell Snake's cigarette smokes going right into my face or smell fresh Brumack in the morning. But its obviuosly a fake, it says so if you actually bothered to read the description, but seriously, wii has gotten some bad gimmicks but not as bad as sega but seriously why would anyone believe this???
