So I was browsing the web the other day trying to gather info on something I got for Christmas. When I came by this:
It's called the Chitendo Vii. It apeares to be a 32 bit Plug n Play that has almost has the same features as the Wii when it comes to controling the games. It seems like it's only avaible in China right now. But it sure looks cool. But has a $170 price tag. Here more info about the Chitendo Vii:

Who knows if the Namco Portable will ever become a reality?

There's also a Vii 2 that just came out. (Or is about to, I forget which one
)
Why is it that every time I post in a thread, it dies?

$170 for a 32 bit system with 12 games?
I was looking through the EBGames flyer, and stumbled across some system I've never seen before.

Second page, I think. For some reason my computer really doesn't want to open it right now.

The Vii has really nice graphics
Wouldn't make me shell out $170 though, still looks to be a clone of a higher quality, than... say Popstation or something.

I just watched a video of this thing, five minutes of rambling Chinese and repeat clips. Definitely one of the funnier ads I've seen for knock-off junk.

Chitendo....
Actually, it looks decent. Not worth $170, but still...
I'd imagine right now you wish you were a cuttlefish...

And if you look at the bottom of the first video. There's a Phone number you can call to order one. I don' t have the money but me thinks it could be the best bet of getting one.
