CAMY International Reveals “Hero Pack” for Wii

Ah, the Wii. It’s amazing to have so much fun and look so silly at the same time. Swinging your arms about, sweating profusely, it’s easy to see why most retail stores do not allow customers to demo the system. It was only a matter of time before such a strange console became victim to even stranger peripherals. Ahem, ladies and gentlemen, I present… the future.
That’s right. CAMY International is producing authentic Link Sword/Shield replicas to be used with your Wii remote and Nunchuck. While it is unknown whether or not you might see this strange device on your local Gamestop shelf, I’m sure your local Japanese importer could get their hands on it.
Check the advertisement here to see all the aspects of the device itself. You may need to read the fine print, as it seems a peripheral like this comes with a lifetime no girlfriend policy.
Haha, awesome. Problem is, they need two swords, so you can swap from your boring one to the Master Sword when you get it
It’s like a car accident, you just cannot look away.
This is another peice of Wii Accessory junk. will they ever stop? It looks cool yes, but is it necessary? NO! so its junk. like the rest of the junk accessories like this. Dont waste your money. that wont make you do any better at Zelda, only make you look like a dork playing it.
Well, really, we don’t ‘need’ consoles, they’re not necessary at all for us to get on with our lives (a pack of cards did the trick, what, 50 years ago, even when TV had just come out?) but the fact is we have them.
Also, if you have this, then yeah, you’ll look like a fool, but you know you’ll be having fun and the onus is on the on-looker’s; why are they looking through your window
One could say all the equipment needed to utilize XboxLive was junk, but we still have it. You do it because it’ll help you enjoy the game and this would. Same thing, different product.
Hmm, I wonder if the Wu with 2 dots over the u is the same as the Wu with 2 dots that are connected of the u.
Something, like that u (look at the top right, it is not comparable with the “Wii”), tells me Nintendo didn’t OK this, and while the sword and shield may be different from the Zelda games to get them in hot water, the fact that they say Wii a couple of times and clearly show the Wii, wi controler, adn nunchuck might.
I hope Nintendo sues over this, and if for some strange reason they did give this the OK, and can’t sue CAMY, they should sue whoever had the idea for this in the first place, just because it’s so bad.
