Pictured: Something far, far cooler than a little plastic gun shell
I never had any interest in the original N64 Goldeneye, because I really sucked at it, and Eric Fortenbery doesn’t lose contests, he wins them. Or he quits them because they’re unfair. But enough people thought that the game was totally “boss,” and “wicked rad” that they decided to make a new version for the Nintendo WHEEEE! Anyway, because all Wii games are required by Japanese law* (*the same system of law that forces every Japanese citizen to eat whale meat for breakfast, lunch, and dinner) to utilize a ridiculous peripheral, Wii Goldeneye (Wii-deneye? Golden Wii? *laughs so hard nose starts bleeding*) brings us a ridiculous peripheral. From Destructoid:
The leaked information (which panned out to be legit) did, however. It showed off two a “gun” shell for the Wii Remote and nunchuk, as well as a golden classic controller. What would those be worth to you?
GameStop seems to think $69.99. The retailer is listing a “James Bond: Goldeneye Controlller” on its website, although it provides no details other than that Activision is behind the peripheral.
Seventy skins seems like a lot for such a relatively useless accessory, but one must remember that almost everyone in the world is a rampaging moron. Mark my words, sonny, these dorky little toys will sell like hotcakes on a cold winter morning. (*calls grandson by the wrong name*)
*cancels pre-order on GameStop*
I’m no moron.
