Check Out Sega's Urinal Console In Action

[Azaraxzealot]

so... their country is in ruins, their games industry is in the shitter, there's children starving in africa, and japan spends their time developing Cat ears that read your mind, burgers made from shit, and game consoles you piss on?

i have no further comment

Wait, microwaves near manparts?
No thanks, I'm not in the mood for a hotdog in the bathroom...

I'm frankly not sure what perturbs me more about this, that someone would even think a concept like this is tasteful in any way or that someone would consider investing money into buying the product.

 

[YonderTunic]

This is one of those things where I am completely unsure if what I am witnessing is the greatest thing I have seen, or the absolute worst.

I do believe this is the pinnacle of what we like to call a Widget (WJT): Weird Japanese Thing. [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/WidgetSeries]

I honestly can't really think of what to say, as my first thought was "Well, that's a widget". followed immediately by the circuits in my brain frying from trying to figure out why Japan would ever invent something like this.

To be fair a popular thing with some parents is to put a cork or piece of coloured sponge in the toilet to 'train' young boys to 'aim', this is just a high tech version, and if it leads to less public bathrooms looking like men have been standing IN the urinals and pissing out onto the floor, then it has to be a good thing.

I'm only surprised that you're not required to aim at the mouth of a catgirl in school uniform is all, why not go for it, if you're going be distasteful, go hog wild, I think...

japans bathroom technology is centuries beyond other earthlings but also very very strange.

legal issues with having cameras installed in bathrooms maybe?.

So it's a Dreamcast that you piss on?

...

So it's pretty much just a Dreamcast?

 

[The Floating Nose]

HAAAAAAAA....Japan....making strange technologies since....well..ever ! That's why i love that country so much it's SO different from what we have here that it becomes cool. If i would go to Japan i would spend 2 hours sitting on a bench just to see how people dress, act and talk.

"What did I do at work today? Oh, I helped put the finishing touches on a game that operates by measuring the player's piss. It's gonna be huge."

 

[Chibz]

My... Boyfriend wants one. Where will I be able to buy one for him?

Spoiler

 

[Twilight.falls]

This is just silly enough to be false but just Japanese enough to be true.

 

[viking97]

do want

 

[Johnnyallstar]

Well piss on this idea.... No, literally, piss on it.



I may need to import one of these and get a translator, no matter the cost.

 

[t3h br0th3r]

Are you serious? are you F---ing serious right now?

they want me to compete with other men using my what!?!

I honestly just though this thread was just some dude trolling but i think instead sega is trolling us all.

Although seeing the bride's face show up in the urinal would be funny...unless her dad has to take a wiz.

 

[Monsterfurby]

Honestly - these are the things no one could make up. I love this world.

Also, this is probably the only console to only be available to 50% of the public - what a bold marketing move.

Alternate answer: Finally, a game my girlfriend will *not* win at!

What is this I don't even
If this had been in any country than Japan the creators would get hospitalized.
Sega, how low you've sunken...
This product is sexist, how are women supposed to use it?

 

[2fish]

First thought:

Internet has taken solid form! e-peen is now IRL???

Second thought: U Wee the game... can I get it on the WiiU?

Third thought: Gotta give this a go.

 

[Ninedeus]

Hey, you'll never know. Might be a silly idea now but it just might click and be the next big thing. Next thing you'll know people will be talking about strategies to get top scores and posting FAQS. Disturbing, yes. Impossible....no.

I wonder what the guy meant when he said it would be 10000 Yen per game, did he mean game that the thing displays, or did he mean that people pay money to pay before going?

I'm thinking it is the first one, because 10000 Yen when I ran it through a currency calculator, it said it was $124.40 USD.

My question to you would be, how is this sexist if women can't use it?

Why would women be going in the men's room?
