I've been a Nintendophile since Game & Watch days, but i just can't see how you can play games with a remote control type controller!?

Surely the other unused hand will twitch towards the remote thinking it has a part to play?

This sounds like a good package but, of course, that depends on the price! Myers have confirmed $399 and you get a racing game GT Pro which is a reworked Gamecube game and comes with a steering wheel.

Default You Can Play It!!!

Just had a go of this in Myer in Pitt St, Sydney...


It is a great laugh!
I had a go on Tennis and Bowling.. it is really incredible how well it works, and how quickly you can pick up the contols... Even my mum could use it!!

If you are interested and get a chance, then check it out (but do not blame me if you decide to put in a pre-order!)
