Not sure if you’re ready to invest in a Shenis or a P-Mate? Well now you can test-drive a virtual experience, and pee on some cats at the same time, all thanks to ThinkGeek, who imported a bunch of copies of this game. ThinkGeek reports that this game for the Wii, which already has a mostly-female audience in Japan, is gaining popularity amongst the most notoriously influential consumer segment in that nation: young women. I don’t normally jump onto “Japan is Wacky” news for the heck of it, but this is both genius and totally puerile, so why not? You can duel with your friends, enjoying algorithms that create “Amazing Realistic Pee Fluid Dynamics.” It’s even useful practice for using a single-strap harness — if they had intended this game for guys, they probably would have built it in a two-strap style, am I right?
And actually, part of the reason it’s genius is because it’s PLAYING on the idea that “anything weird is believable when it comes from Japan” to get people to fall for an April Fool’s joke, as well as a dash of the hoary old “girls have penis envy” theme. I found this one really late, I know — but it’s one of the better ones I’ve run across this year and I figured it deserved linking!! I mean, they made video of a whole fake game with streams of urine, for god’s sake.

Yeah, but you have to realise that now they’ve faked this up, someone will actually make the game within a few months.
If only it were true! Unfortunately, this game was Thinkgeek’s annual april fools day item.
Write Name in Snow Stage! BEGIN!
Read the fine print, tera =D
FOOOOOOOLED YOOOOOOOU
If current American anime fans are anything like those I used to hang out in school or some of the anime-con attendees I encountered at cons…this game will add another perceived “kink” they feel “is Japan”.
Hey….if some actually believed that Japan is a wonderful world of ever exploding cities, rampaging armored mechs, and flying bipeds tossing around energy balls and military-grade ordinance, I would not be surprised if this starts the new perception among these types of Japanese hardcore gamers peeing all over the place to get their gaming fix. :roll:
If it were real, I would totally play it.
Oh gawd, extra points for peeing on the cats. XD
I don’t understand what the wiimote-helmet is for though. Optic pee-beams?
