I drove for hours to the Wal-Mart out in the country side where no one give a shit about the Wii to get one and I was the only person that jumped up and down and there are 5 on the shelf. It is wrong to see the copycat but another side of me saying I don’t blame them. It is a hot game console and you don’t produce enough then people would seek for alternative. Why wouldn’t you search for alternative when you stand in line for hours and all they can say is: sorry, we are out of wii. We only have total of 18 and you are customer number 98. All game console makers are a bunch of greedy produce less to jack the price up. They are no difference then countries rich in Oil. Second and Third world countries don’t give a shit about integrity nor copyright craps. If people save their entire household monthly income to buy a Wii and come to find out that they don’t have any more then they will look for alternative, cheaper, better and in this case bigger box. This should be a lesson for all the console makers to produce more and stop being so greedy. Did you see the inside of the case? Some poster in here laughs about the size of it but I applauded. Nintendo haven’t figure out how to make their inside console smaller. The Chinese Vii made definitely use less power since there is no moving part. This is wrong, very wrong.

Trade is too lucrative to cut as well, and the Chinese know it. At the same time, I think people stereotype too heavily manufacturers with the people. Considering that the slew of Chinese painters, fashion designers, and many other artists are surpassing Japan's in international recognition for it's uniqueness already (ironic huh). They don't lack ideas or creativity, they simply are stealing profits from other businesses because the law lets them, and I think that's the real reason people are frustrated... it's one thing if you hide behind the guise of being poor or lack of current education, but when you can invent the stuff but choose to continue to rip profits, well, different story.

Just a bunch of chinese hoping consumers will confuse "Wii" with "Vii" so they can make fat stacks of cash. Though it's probably a better effort than most Chinese rip-offs, I'll give them that.

I guess as long as they don't ever invent anything on their own it can't get stolen. Perhaps that's part of the official plan, "They can't steal what we don't invent -- steal for the greatness of China." Sounds like capitalism with Chinese characteristics.

They install their factories over there to explore cheap labor, and the Chinese explore them back through this piracy; those ripoffs come straight from the same floor where the originals come from.

This kind of blatant theft is going to eventually drive manufacturers elsewhere. Maybe not today or tomorrow, but at some point corporations will recognize the threat China posses to their business.
