Chinese Wii knock-off gets sequel, Vii 2
While Nintendo is too busy these days, keeping up with demand for the Wii, to even consider working on an improved version of their revolutionary system, the Chinese that created the Vii, that funny replica of the Nintendo Wii, already have a sequel ready, the Vii 2.
Sure it might not have been as good as a Wii, it might have had games that fit better on a late 80’s-early 90’s NES, but hey it’s Chinese what do you expect? Anyway the Vii must have been quite a success in
All of you Vii fans out there, don’t get your hopes up, the Vii 2 plays exactly the same crapy games its predecessor did, it just has more expansion ports for peripherals and console add-ons, should any moron of a developer wish to create any gadgets for it.
In conclusion, all I can say is: F**kin’ Chinese man!
Hello there. Two things I would like to bring to your attention. First, this is not a sequel, it’s simply another product that happen to look like the wii. No where does it actually say “Vii 2″. Just because two product look similar doesn’t mean they are from the same company.
2nd, I appreciate that you had the courtesy of using “Fucking Chinese man” and not… “Fucking chinks”. It is clearly a lot better and it shows a lot more class.

Why did you have to use such language? Do you think it helps to make your point? I’m afraid not.

Oh no! how dare he say “Fucking Chinese Man” it ruined my day!
My god! it sickens me that there are actually people like you out there who get offended at any politically incorrect mark. You make me sick!
As for that system, the fact that China goes unchecked with their consumer goods (ie Volkswagen rip off’s and now this) should be the true injustice here!
Puh-puh-puh Peace out!

I understand that such language might appear blunt, but I simply had to say it that way.
Comment by Emmanuel | December 23, 2007
You do know Nintendo is a japanese company right… they also have headquarters in china…
Also, why are you criticizing them for mispelling power while you cannot even write a professional article?
Oh and btw if you did not know, I am sure Nintendo did not put their whole development team in the factories to create wii’s. So I am sure Nintendo is already working on a next version
Comment by Anonym | December 23, 2007
He meant something to the effect of “Those F**kin’ Chinese, man!” which is something I wouldn’t personally take offense to if it was referenced to, for example, me as a Canadian.
“F**kin’ Canadians, man!”
Yah, not very offensive.
Or did you actually think he was referencing a single Chinese man, the Chinese man that made all the Viis?
Grow some testicles and learn to interpret language, or get off the internet, where free speech and lack of grammar/punctuation are abound.
Comment by George | December 23, 2007
I think a better way of putting it would have been:
“Those crazy guys in china will knock anything off”
I don’t think it was meant to racial in any way.

Comment by Someyoungguy | December 23, 2007
This is interesting in that I have never seen this technology. Can it be modded? What type of peripherals will it take and finally what kind of media does it run?
Sounds from the articles that the games suck but i did some digging around google and can not find any info on how to buy one of these things or how much they cost.
Does this thing really exist or is it just a new kind of vaporware?
Comment by bill | December 23, 2007
I was laughing out loud up to the last line… The last line is where the “article” turned from funny to nasty. I don’t recall whether it was intended or not, it’s racist.

I has unsubscripted your blog just now.
I think it is not worth reading articles written by persons like you.
At the end, one word to you, “YOU ARE VERY FOOLISH”
bye.
Comment by subscriptor | December 23, 2007
Oh come on people…if you think that’s racist than I don’t even want to explain anything to you. I only said it to emphasize the fact that they have a habit of copying stuff AND in a terrible manner. Didn’t you ever own a pair of slippers that said Mike instead of Nike or Juma instead of Puma? It might not have been the best choice of words, but that DOESN’T mean it’s racist!
I’ve never even met a Chinese person so I can’t possibly have anything against them, I’d rather you call me an ignorant than a racist. I see the racism issue is still very popular, which is a good thing, but it has no point here.
Comment by admin | December 23, 2007
“F**kin’ Chinese man!”
How is that not racist? You are clearly making the distinction that the Chinese are worse in some way or form than another race here.
You are ignorant and also racist. They are not mutually exclusive.
And what is up with your analogy? It has nothing to do with anything.

Listen, the fact that I don’t like their copying habits does not make me a racist! Now about last line, I said it before, maybe not the best thing I could have said, but I did not mean it to sound racist. It seems I’ve failed…shit happens

How come in movies they can say “F***in Americans” or “Damn american” and no one gets offended or comes to our rescue but as soon as “F***in (insert region)” is mentioned its racist. Maybe he should have said “F***in Asia” then all of asia could be offened. I mean his comment had nothing to do with who/whom made the product. You 120% PC people are ridiculous. I never knew that calling chinese people “Chinese” was being racist. What should we call them then? Euroasians? You tell me.

Comment by Gabriel | December 23, 2007
everyone here is an idiot. so is me saying “Fucking Sudanese” racist? any of you PC liberal pussy mother fuckers would say no because of the “travesty” in darfur. so its not me attacking a type of people (niggers) but rather me attacking a group. his “fucking chinese man” is a reference to how china makes knock-offs of everything and no one ever does anything about it.
the most racist people i’ve ever met in my life are the ones that call out people for being racist. you are all worthless pieces of society that couldn’t wipe your own ass.
I got money that says “Subscriptor” is chink.
this is why i hate the left wing.

Comment by chicken master | December 23, 2007
Bahaha, they prefer the term Asian-American? Doubt it. PC idiot. Being politically correct is a fallacy in itself.
Don’t lie either, there are a lot of things that you yourself, PC kids, probably buy that you do not want made in China. And why would that be, hmm? Why did the little old Chinese lady I saw in Kohl’s the other day pick up a can opener, say, “Pfft, made in China?” and toss it down??
You guys are only making a big deal because it said fucking. If it was just, “Chinese, man!” you wouldn’t have said anything.
Comment by PublicDisease | December 23, 2007
Wow, they use so much energy on stupid stuff like copying games, why not use that same energy to copy and reproduce basic human rights, freedom or democracy.
Don’t get me wrong, I like the chinese, they have good food and women, but I think sometimes they’re priorities are backwards.
Comment by wii | December 23, 2007
Yes, the last line was racist because he’s impugning the entire race of people, rather than the people who created the shoddy product. The fact that this is a crappy knock-off product has nothing to do with the fact that it was made in China, since there are a lot of high quality products that we need and use every day that are Chinese in origin, and China certainly doesn’t have a monopoly on crappy knock-offs.
Zune anyone? I don’t see anyone saying “f*cking Americans” when there’s a crappy American knock-off.
Comment by ClueTrain | December 23, 2007
Wow. Totaly off topic i’d say. So aside from what the article is ment to be discussing you all would rather nit-pic and complain about one word of the 100 that has nothing to do with the actual topic. You all know you’ve cussed out a race wether meaning to or not. Wether it be your own race or some other race. And you all know you’ve just simply cussed period. Dont be hypocrits people. Lifes to short to be whining about what one man thinks. If you dont like the article then ignore it and move on. The world is not going to end because of what he says so stop acting like it. The Admin says he should be called ignorant then…i’d say you all are the ignorant ones.

Definately it is more idiotic then writing a psp on a 30$ chinese made dual sim capable mobile phone , with a vga camera fitted and having a big sticker to say 3.0Megapixel hahahahaa, sure they can get away with this kind of mispelling , and poor quality products in china only.

OH BY the way i fully respect the right of the writer of this article of bieng a racist or liberal or a democrat. I thought his comments as racism, but it really might not be even near it. and its high time that people should realise internet is and cannot be something they wanna control. everyone has right to say anything yes eveen if he is a racist. Chill@@
Comment by mandya | December 23, 2007
Hahaha, watching you all flailing around about one quasi-racist tongue-in-cheek comment is hilarious. Good old internets.
The guy who first wrote the “Asian-American” comment was quoting The Big Lebowski, a reference that kinda proves you don’t have a sense of humour if you took it seriously. If you haven’t seen that movie, go and see it now, because it’s a comedy cornerstone and the best thing the Cohen Brothers have ever come up with.
As for this, well, I don’t really care. I know that there are cheap Chinese knock-off consoles going around, though I prefer somebody reviewing them with a sense of humour and parody rather than somebody just taking the piss out of the fact that the Chinese still haven’t mastered spelling basic words correctly on their products.
You all fail. Apart from the guy who originally put the Lebowski reference in the comment thread. The rest of you are out of your element.

Comment by vsjnbsn | December 24, 2007
Hi Spooky and admin,
Some facts you should know:
1. Not all Chinese have the copying habits.
2. The phenomenon of copying not only exists in China. but also exists in many countries, even ever existed in USA and Japan in history. It is a normal phenomenon in a certain period in the development process of a country.
3. The persons who make copies just to make a living, just like you writing the second-hand news in your blog here. And
4. The “Vii” is not “Wii”, it is legal in law.
If you don’t like the copying habits, you can express your specific emotions on the copiers, don’t on all the persons in the country of the copiers. For example, I think you are ignorant, but I don’t think all persons in your country are ignorant.

“Look buddy, I wasn’t referring to any part of your review being racist apart from the last line which I clearly quoted. You wouldn’t have been deemed a racist if you skipped out the last remark.”
And that’s where you fail. When reading an article you should take everything as a whole, and you have now revealed that you were taking his comment out of context. Therefore, your opinion is worthless because it is incapable of seeing the bigger picture. Also I’d say that most of the comments here are on the side of the author, so based on democracy, he has not been “deemed” a racist.
Listen. Racism is much deeper rooted into your being than making passing comments at how Chinese people copy things for profit (here’s a reality: they do). The way he said it is in no way a confirmation of any sort of philosophical view that the author has on life or the Chinese people. Calling him a racist is accusing him of something that isn’t as light as you seem to take it. I am from Tennessee and while the American Southeast is not the only traditional hotbed of racism in the world (obviously) I can confirm that most racists are very serious and believe truly that they are right in condemning other races. I have had people tell me that black people are the problem with the United States today, and NO level of rational reasoning can convince them otherwise.
This author isn’t a racist, and if you think his comment is racist you are a politically correct fool.
Comment by Sledfang | December 24, 2007
Wow,actually it’s the most interesting present I get in st eve.Well,Vii2 is an…upgrating…product of Vii1(much better,much strong..eh..),it’s all come from Chinese’s copying habits(It’s hard to be definated as good or bad and it’s not my topic).More info is here:
http://news.mydrivers.com/1/92/92817_1.htm
Before this,do you really know what Chinese think?I hope you to view these links:

2.威力棒三代的外观会和哪款国外品牌游戏机出现惊人的相似？”
Sorry but do you Learn Chinese?It’s a pity if not…simple translations here:
Now let’s espect the Vii2’s inner dismounting photo and Vii3!Here given two questions:
1.The area of Vii2’s motherboard is?
2.Vii3 will most probablly take after which foreign famous game console?
However,you still got images to understand.Happy st eve!

Comment by ross | December 27, 2007
seven things i’d like to point out:
1. counterfeit products exist everywhere. it’s not a chinese only issue, and its only a small portion of chinese companies that do this.
2. the reason why americans aren’t angered by “fucking americans” is because, like it or not, they probably know they deserve it. is it just me, or does it also happen to be the americans going around bombing the crap out of whoever it has a slight dislike of? hmm, there seems to be a connection…
3. to people with serious sinophobic issues, please, get off the internet. this isn’t 4chan.
4. if you got a problem with the chinese products flooding your country’s markets, blame your own country’s lack of production power in those markets. dont forget, its always been the americans pushing for global free trade. ironically, once its here, they dont like it. and dont forget the fact that most of the consumer products in your home are made in china. therefore, you are not entitled to the right to dislike products. unless, of course, as a chinese guy above said, you threw all your made-in-china belongings out your window, including your clothes.
5. for all you european dudes out there, your age of glory is over. the days of you lording it over entire foreign races under your shackles of imperialism have long ended. hey, who knows, maybe one day china will “rent” an island or two off the coast of england, or maybe even some land ON england…
that’s for poisoning our people with opium and enslaving our nation.
6. democracy/human rights isn’t the new roman catholicism. don’t start another crusade. if you do, keep in mind it’s guaranteed to end like the 10+ ones before it.
7. dont mess with the 愤青’s. i’m not kidding. lol.

Big fucking deal, a product that borrowed some design features from the Wii… It doesn’t have a Wii logo does it?
And yes it’s true everything gets copied in China, but you get what you pay for. Don’t like shitty chinese products, buy european or japanese ones for four times the price.
I live in China and I use the phrase “fucking chinese” but i also say “fucking americans” or “fucking europeans”. It’s not a fucking derogatory statement, “fucking chings, rednecks or eurotrash” however is.
Comment by iaminchina | January 8, 2008
I’ve seen countless imitations that originate in China. But why the heck did the comments have to focus on the last thing Spooky wrote.
I agree with Spooky. I’m sick of them ripping these products off. They’re unoriginal pricks that don’t even have the wits to come up with their own concepts and designs.
If you don’t understand the severity of ripping other products off, then obviously you have never created something worthy of a Copyright. You’re too damn ignorant to understand what it’s like to have your work copied by a bunch of cretins that lack the creativity to come up with their own designs.
Stupid fu*king copycats.

Comment by tom | January 10, 2008
99% of the comments here are completely rediculous.
What you all are calling racism isnt racism at all. Hell, even the “fucking american” comments are more of a political statement than racism. American isn’t a race, caucasian is a race, as is asian, etc. You people might want to actually give things some serious thought before you open your easily offended mouths. So take a moment to get your panties out of a bunch and grow up a little bit.
On another note. The reason there are so many Chinese products in everyones homes are that they’re a supply of cheap labor, thus reducing the manufacturing costs for companies based in other parts of the world. Frankly, most 100% Chinese designed items I’d gladly do without. I’m just saying that Chinas history of self innovation without basing products on other companies designs are questionable at best. This product is an example of that.
It just seems like another attempt to take advantage of the ignorant, and make a dollar any way possible. Wow. Maybe the Chinese are more like the Americans than they think. Just something to think about before you all go back to making personal attacks at one another.
Comment by mik | January 12, 2008
Dude, you do know you are using something which is made in China such as cloth, PC, TV….
If you don’t like Chinese, never ming, just don’t use anything which is made in China.
Anyway, Vii2 is stupid,you know what, nobody will buy that even they are Chinese.
Hope you could learn something!
