Wiiwaa is a forthcoming Wii game which involves you cramming your Wiimote into the mouth of the bizarre stuffed animal you see... oh just watch the video after the break.
@(Unverified) For younger kids who don't have dirty imaginations like the bulk of the engadget readers, that seems like a pretty good game. Points for deviating from the standard controls of even the Wii and making interaction with actual 3d objects the interface.
@(Unverified) True, at first i didn't know what to think, but from seeing the video, it seems to be a pretty smart idea. I could easily see this being popular with Nintendo's younger demographic.
@eyhk Definitely. Looks like an excellent use of the motion based controls of the Wii to give a game a very simple control setup that would be easy for _anyone_ to pick up and use. Looks like a great way to allow even the youngest of children to play a game on the Wii.
However, it's still no replacement for that same kid going out and climbing trees and riding bikes. Oh, the good old days...
THIS IS AWESOME! I just can't imagine what other people will think of a mid 20 something drinking and maniacally laughing while playing with a stuffed animal. This is going to be fun :P
My goodness this video has brought me a vicarious joy that i have not had since i was a kid. this game looks waaaay cool. i would kill to play this game when i was a kid. I imagine this game selling well.
Um, well technically Nintendo is a japanese company, so... this kind of this is pretty pedestrian. When they come out with a robo-Princess Peach that you can ...er... "power up" via Wii Insertion... maybe the FCC will have to step in and tell the Japanese to take their 'interesting culture' elsewhere.
Um, well technically this game is made by the Swedes. Yes the Japps have or will approve it for licensing, but it came from the messed up mind of a Swede (or at least is being developed by them).
Funny, I heard they were making a wii-mote attachment for the penis. Might still need to keep a strong strap on it though to keep it from flying across the room during vigorous "gaming"
Now that we've thrown 'em off the trail, use the form below to get in touch with the people at Engadget. Please fill in all of the required fields because they're required.
Words truly escape me.
How does deep throating a stuffed animal.... you know what? Never mind.
@gofthick MEE WANT COOKIIIIII OMM NOM NOM NOOM NOM NOM
@gofthick I just love that they used a track by Justice in the ad. Totally awesome :)
@gofthick then did you know that originally it went up that thing's… ass?
@gofthick
I didnt think of that until you sickos; thx!
You have a point though... a velcro flap in the back would have worked.
@gofthick Notice how it looks you straight in the eye while you insert the remote.
WTF!!!
huh looks like a mouthful. tah hah hah hah
WOW!
That is crazy!

Next up, a game with Barbie...
@(Unverified) Why?
@bwkk im pretty sure if u mod the doll into a barbie doll we've satisfied the needs of the new game and all those pervs at hand.
Why?
@yoavraccah
because lonely 35 yr old fat guys have Wiis, er, needs too!
Moving on from the obvious references, I don't think it's a bad idea.

@YvesOfWinter
But the doll still is kind of ugly.
Agreed. I think this is a wonderful interface for a young child.

YES BUT IT LOOKS LIKE HE'S DEEP-THR.........
ok sorry, it is indeed an interesting idea

@chickenplucker
all those colors and funky visuals would be going to waste if all you did was drink
*coughLSDcough*
@Nzad
Your are correct, what was I thinking lol
@chickenplucker I think it'd more appropriate if you were stoned. Just think of the possibilities.
@Nzad
Well if you've heard the track by Justice, the intro fades in to the music with: " Do the D-A-N-C-E! E! E! E! E! E! . . . "
@chickenplucker

Where is the world going?

It's funny because his avatar is a dog
@(Unverified)
That was the idea...
Great way of selling simple games to young children, the only real question would be around the longevity of it all.
put the remote up his A** he'll do naughty stuff too xD
A whole new level of interactivity for blow up dolls is on the horizon.
Please let there be an Ecstasy mode were you just hold and stroke that fuzzy fella for 7 hours... for points.
I heard they're working on a penis attachment for the wii-mote
@Exbloder

How you get the Wiimote out? I'm guessing you have to wait a few hours - after which you better get the Handy Wipes ready.
@JonahFalcon
the dolls are bulemic, they throw it up when nobody is watching
change that ugly stuffed thingy to a classic pooh and I am sold.
