Wow EPIC FAIL. Read the article as it says nothing about NIntendo making these.

Umm... I believe it's a 3rd party vendor designing these accessories, not Nintendo. So.. single fail?

Little do you know about vedio games.Oh how nice calling people stupid as well............

This is honestly the worst thing I have heard of for Wii. The only cool accessory I've heard of is the spray paint ca from that company in Sweden. At least that will have a game attached and is artistic.

Won't this just perpetuate the problem with people letting go of their remotes?

Do any of these items actually enhance the gameplay experience? If they don't then I don't see the point. While a wii bowling bowl may look "cool" people will not buy it just because of that if they do not perceive it to have an associated functional aspect, such as making it easier to play bowling

I'd buy them both together if they we're in the bargain bin and sold together for like $5 just for the novelty. But since they'll both probably cost $20 or more when/if they release, I'll have to pass.

Hey, at least people would be less likely to throw their controllers at their TV when they are attached to the boxing gloves like that. Of course, that would deny us hours of quality Youtube footage...

honesty........ do you realy play vedio games? let alone a Wii?

When are people going to stop bashing produced that dont have to cost more then what they are worth? PSP3 etc types of followers.

Wii owners are the ones that enjoy games and now wht the want to buy and use.
