    That's right folks, it's the long awaited Dry British Guy (of Polystation 3 and POP Station fame) review of the Sport Vii (aka the Vii 2) -- the video game console of your nightmares. When a product is as anticipated as this, you expect a little disappointment here or there, and the KenSingTon Vii 2 doesn't fail to deliver... er, on failing that is. Watch in horror as you're taken through the bizarre knock-off world that is the Sport Vii software suite, including a wide variety of games involving horribly mutated-looking rabbits. Watch the video after the break and get all the facts -- our suggestion is that you hang on till the very end for an exciting twist.

    Meet Vii 2, the second generation faux Wii that's been downgraded to a baby blue box reminiscent of the NES – or is that supposed to be a PS3? The new Vii has been formatted for NTSC & PAL standards and now bears several warnings: THIS IS NOT A Wii – it will not play Wii games Vii is a game console designed just for kids and toddlers! Designed with THEM in mind, not the big kids Slower game speeds Included in the box (literally built-in) are the Vii's 11 original classics, like Fry Egg and Come On. New to Vii 2 is an expansion cart packed with 7 all-time favorites, including MaJong 13 and its thrilling sequel, MaJong 16. As always, the Viimote includes a "3 axes G-SENSOR" and "10 different sounds." QwickieDeals is currently selling Vii 2 for $140.

    Hot on the heels of the original, massively successful Vii, comes the Vii 2, this time from "Kensington." We're pretty hot on the NES-inspired design and ergonomic, soft-touch Vii-mote, but seriously -- a "porwer" button? Time to start bringing the A-game, guys. Check a few more pics after the break.[Thanks, Anonymouse]
