New Game Turns Baby Doll into Wiimote Attachment

We've seen bizarre Wii remote accessories before (this bowling ball encasement certainly comes to mind), but everyone else can quit now -- 505 Games has won. Because as Aussie-Nintendo reports (via Kotaku), their latest Wii exclusive title Baby and Me encases your Wii inside a baby.

No, really. The special edition of this child-rearing game aimed at little girls comes with a baby doll with a slot in its back for the Wii remote, which allows the doll to react "by giggling, gurgling or crying through the Wii remote [speaker]." At last, this makes real the futuristic vision of doll playing made tantalizingly vivid in that one scene in Steven Spielberg's virtuoso sci-fi flick Minority Report (pretty sure there was a scene like that in there, haven't seen it in a while).

But the doll doesn't just giggle or cry. With Balance Board support, you can also "rock baby to sleep, burp baby, [and] teach baby to walk." There will be 10 "Baby Mode" games such as "feed baby" and "send baby to sleep," and 8 "Play Mode" games such as "rattle, catch, clap & balloons."

We really hope "rattle," "catch," and "clap" aren't played using the Wiimote-equipped baby.

Don't waggle the baby.

I was hoping you meant this.

Yay! Now I can play a video game about shaking babies instead of just having a school assignment on them.

What a weird idea.

Heh might be intresting to hear Yahtzee's take on this sometime.

- You stupid dog.

Will that game have the wrist strap warning on it?

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

Metal Mario · 11-02-2009, 03:44 PM

^It would if they used my idea.

I will shake the baby vigorously until the game tells me it's dead.
