Post Magazine Pictures Unveil The... Erm... "Vii"! (NintendoLife)

Magazine Pictures Unveil The... Erm...

GoNintendo.com have uncovered some rather amusing magazine pictures which seem to promote a Nintendo Wii rip-off known as the "Vii".

While it's name is not exactly going to win awards for originality it's design is not likely to either, given the console is a cheap plasticy rip-off of both the Wii-remote and the Wii console itself.

Even Nintendo's marketing has been somwhat paid homage as the magazine shows older gamers enjoying their "Vii".

We do love a copy-cat.
