We've got a drawer set aside at Joystiq HQ for all the Wiimote doodads that accessory makers want us to buy. Admittedly, we haven't bought anything to put in there yet but, then again, the accessory makers haven't yet made that grappling hook accessory we've been dreaming of.
That said, this "Cooking Mother" kit, custom made for all the Cooking Mamas out there, is just impractical enough to tie this Zelda junk for most useless Wiimote accessory ever. Impressive to be sure, but it's still not going into our drawer.

Now that's just retarded. All these companies trying to bank off the Wii's success with their shitty products. It's a damn shame.

I think this is contagious. I just built a scalpel attachment for Trauma Center.

If you buy this, you need to be seriously beaten.

Why not buy REAL utensils, REAL food, and cook a FREAKIN, REAL meal.

Wiimote attachments are the new ET.
Some day, the Nevada desert will be full of these.

I do really wonder who buys this crap.
I see these attachments at gamestop in the bargain bin knocked doen to $3, so I don't think they are selling well.

This is exactly what I'd expect for that little wii thing. Plastic products for your little sister to play with. Serious gamers need not apply.

well, you can't, because you can't find receipts of all the dishes on the game. That WOULD be a great feature, but heck, I guess they were too busy teaching the lady to speak English to put that in there. ;)

With all these shitty attachments, I wanna see some company go off the deep end and make a penis/dildo attachment for the wiimote, and make history with the first AO-Rated ACCESSORY by the ESRB.

Must fight urge to buy, it's to hard, oh fuck it I am getting them.
You see there is such a thing as being TO hardcore a gamer, when you buy an elite just for the HDMI port you have a problem and should seek help.
Or embrace it and just buy every stupid thing like this that comes along, hopefully this will work with Ninjabread Man... HA!

Dustin, buddy...pal.
If you find yourself actively fighting the urge to buy this piece of shit, YOU'RE the one who should seek help.
This has nothing to do with being a 'hardcore' gamer.

That's what my post said, it said I need help. Here, I will quote myself to help you:
"You see there is such a thing as being TO hardcore a gamer, when you buy an elite just for the HDMI port you have a problem and should seek help."
In this case the "when you buy" is referring to me.
Anyway thanks for your concern, but I was being tongue and cheek, I don't mind that I buy stupid shit like this, it's $20 bucks and worth the laugh to me, but then you might value the $20 more than me and so you wouldn't buy it, and the world keeps turning.

I dont think they are related. HotshotX is funny, Longshotx was just a PS3 fanboy

Dustin,
My 'concern' is that you are inadvertently creating a demand for garbage software.

Too bad that Manhunt 2 got an AO rating...I'm sure one of these rip-off accessory companies could have made a killing on some wii-mote attachments...lol
