Imitation is the best form of flattery as they say, but this Chinese company may be going a little too far with this Wii ripoff. Even the most trustworthy soul would be hard pressed to give this console the benefit of the doubt since they don't even bother to disguise the name: they call it the Vii.

Everything from the console's design to the Wiimote (or the Viimote?) looks almost exactly the same. Two questions pop into mind: "Is it cheaper than the Wii?" and "Can it play Wii games?" Well, even if both questions are answered with a yes we probably won't see the Vii hit the market en masse or even leave the country for that matter, considering the obvious legal issues.

We'll have to see whether or not Nintendo will take any legal action. Updates as we get them.

I wonder if they copied the Wii???

One Word: Wow

hA
LOOKS NO DIFFERENT
I know its so sad... I wonder if (*cough*when) Nintendo is gonna sue
oh christ >_<
My lawsuit senses are tingling.
It's china. they probably can't do much.
At first I wasnt paying attention to the article I just thought those pictures were Wii ones.

Wow big rip off. Big Grin
Wow, what a crappy rip off. Reminds me of the "X-Game 360" (actually a dodgy NES emulator):

LOL at the POWERSTATION2 next to it n_n

thats just effing ridiculous
wow...if you're going to rip off a console at least make it less obvious...
Naw, it doesn't matter over there. China rarely gets official launches so the next best thing is a clone by some cloning-company. The big companies have no jurisdiction in china anyway, so they can't do anything about it.
if im not mistaken in the bottom right corner there is a screenshot(s) of new super mario bros

You're right, it is! OMG WTF?! Sue sue sue Nintendo! Sue em for all they've got! Clearly this company has hit an all time low to stoop to copying. I mean, why?? And to even go as far as to include screens of a Nintendo game? I don't get it, what's going on here?

Because in China, people sell bootlegged stuff on a street corner. XD
LMAO at the name Vii. Sounds like how the Germans pronounce Wii.
