Mini PolyStation 2 PS2 knock-off

Some companies ride on the coattails of a hot device by accessorizing the hell out of it. Other companies take a different tack: manufacturing ridiculously blatant knock-off versions of the same device. The Mini PolyStation 2 has as its precedent the PolyStation 1, and we're glad to see that this upstanding company has managed to somehow dodge legal action long enough to put out the sequel. But do you think they'll be forced to stop selling the dual-shock controllers?

[Thanks, Robert]

I remember the PolyStation 3 I saw about a year ago, by my school in NYC. It looked like a Playstation 1. That same store has the X-treme box (guess what that one looks like?), and a ripoff of the Gameboy Advance, but I can't remember the name of that one. They all came with light guns, bootlegs of old Nintendo games, and cost $20. Damn, do I love NY.

Of course, that's just good business.

You forgot to mention that is Chinese hardware which can be found
inside UFO catcher in Japan. It's not for sale. PolyStation 1 as well.

Of course...in Japan, you can get a REAL PS2 from a game machine (GBAs too). I know people who tried to win them many times... :D

Uh...is there anything you CAN'T get out of a UFO catcher (or at least coin operated machine of some type) in Japan :) ?

'I know people who tried to win them many times... :D'

I know the feeling...if that dang porno DVD hadn't kept getting the way, that 'Ab-tronic' would have been MINE !!!
