We have a winner...

China is quickly becoming known for its knock-off video game systems, none more (in)famous than the "Vii", a Nintendo Wii wannabe with far worse graphics and sketchier motion detection. Here's another shot at the prize though, presciently titled the "Winner". It attempts to replicate the PS3's multimedia functions while adding a touch of Wii with a motion detecting controller, and it is priced to move at $120-150. Watch out PS3, you have some serious competition for dead last in the console war!

Wii already released in China?

I really hate sites that don't date their posts. Like this one. I assume it's not a new post because it says the Wii is expected to hit Chinese store shelves in late 2008, but guess what it's 2009 now, so why is my google news alerts just picking this up now. Stupid. 

Also stupid because I'm pretty sure that it's still not in China, officially. I mean, how could it possibly compete with the Vii anyway?
