Wii Nerf Crotch Bat reviewed
Those redundant Wiimote shells aren't the only Nerf items you can get for the Wii. We introduced Pelican's Nerf Sports Pack way back in February, but it's apparently just now becoming available as a real item. It may look like any other Wii Sports-targeted Wiimote attachment set, but it differs in one significant way, which can be summed up in one silly, trademarked word: Nerf.
All of the attachments are encased in Nerf foam, which, according to the IGN reviewer, allowed Pelican to make them all larger and heavier, and thus more realistic-feeling. Having a small, Nerfy baseball bat like that also tacitly encourages re-enactment of a certain Saturday Night Live skit that we can't help but mention every time we talk about Nerf. This time, it just seemed especially relevant.

Is it too late for Rockstar to add a Crotch Batting multiplayer minigame to Manhunt 2?

Ha ha that might be the only thing these tacky shells (not these ones in particular, but any of this sort of 'bat/club/raquet' cuh-RAP that people are tryin' to mad phat bank on. My two cents is 'just leave it to the imagination, the psychotropic drugs, the lifelike quality of the movement you experience with the Wii remote, some alcohol, being schizophrenic, or WHATEVER to simulate realism, but do not attach fake looking mini clubs that reach about a foot to your remote that's just... SILLY! Of course I don't mean to ridicule anyone who DOES like these things... which I realize now I just did... I really am a jerk... sorry!

Fr anyone who doesn't get the SNL reference, you can go to You Tube and search for Nerf Crotch Bat to see the commercial, or follow this link:
