So I think it's official. A Wii Pole Dancing game! 😮 How crazy is that? Problem? It's Peek-A-Boo who's behind it. 👎 Vid: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fg3EUZ0SU5Y http://gizmodo.com/387152/the-wii-pole-dancing-game-is-really-coming http://multiplayerblog.mtv.com/2008/05/02/wii-pole-dancing-game-intended-for-fitness-fun-for-men-and-women/

I'm pretty sure both those articles are a joke. The picture is so blatantly photoshopped, and I agree that Wii would never let something like pole dancing be part of it's gaming product line. While WE know that pole dancing is great for fitness 😉 the general consumer market would not be aware of that. Besides, Wii is losing popularity worldwide and will be obsolete soon... 😕 And if it is true, and there is a game coming sponsored by Peekaboo, you can be that WIi is going to have even more lawsuits on its hands!!! 😂

This was announced last year (2008) and I haven't seen anything since. The pic is def photoshopped. That remote is HUGE! 😀 I highly doubt that this will ever come to light...and I would be kinda glad if it dosen't (esp under Peek-a-boo) just because it would probably come across as a joke and making fun of those that pole!

I know the image is photo shopped, lol. It's a barbie on a pole with a Wii remote pasted over her hand. 😂 But I've heard a lot about this, so it may be legit. Nintendo's site won't bring anything about it up though if you search for it.

W T EFF!?!!? Ok first of all I could photoshop a better pic than that!!! ( and I just may, just for fun...) And as someone who got suckered into buying an Electra-pole, I'm rather angry about this... How can peekaboo possibly market themselves as a "real" dance pole??? I still have the piece of crap laying under my bed... store wouldn't take it back without the original box, so at least now I have something to compare to. But I'm truly hoping that this isn't going to happen for real... for the sake of all the poor souls that land flat on their tookus and/or face from using the peekaboo pole

I bought the Electra Pole as well, and if you're just looking to dance around it, spin a little, and etc., well, it's not too horrible. It's def not good though. 😕 I still have the box I bought it in and all the original packaging, but the problem is that the store only does store credit and I don't need 120 dollars worth of Spencer's items. 🙄 Without a receipt, I doubt they'd take it at all. But back to the point. Now I wanna photoshop a picture for this. We should have a "Make A Wii Pole Case Cover!" Contest! 🥂

Oh dude I'm so Photoshopping something like right now!!! *opens Google image search to find pics* I'll post it when I'm done with it! 😀
Foxy_Rei ·
It's not letting me upload pics (still) so I'm linking back to my Photobucket account: First try, if I'm bored I may do more 😀 I was hesitant to use a pic of a real person for fear they'd come after me... http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i81/Namara_the_Roatian/wiipole.jpg
hahaha...thats really good i like it. and it only took you 30min!

Lol thanks, but that was pretty straight-forward. The pics I used had plain, solid-colored backgrounds so one click of the Magic Eraser, crop to what I wanted to use, rotate or flip around, resize, and then drag onto the new image. If I had used a pic of a real person it would've been a little more difficult... I'm feeling challenged now... hmmm... *opens photoshop again* Ok I'm just editing this post to add what I just did so I don't double post... Not the greatest and not too much to it... I'll probably take this down before too long before I get emails telling me they're going to sue me for using the Wii logo or something stupid like that... http://i70.photobucket.com/albums/i81/Namara_the_Roatian/wiipole2.jpg Once again no big deal... hardest part was the hand.

Oh, hahaha, that one's awesome! 😀 Love it. I'm going to have to try now.
Carmen Electra was working on a pole game with Wii. that was sometime last year... maybe 1 year ago? I was working in an IT environment at that point, so, the guys thought it was funny to send me the link to the news item. Until I suggested we made a competition out of it in the office when the product was released. 😂 "just like a singstar night!!" Nothing more was said. I think it was on http://www.gizmodo.com
