The Executive Pong Set
A: Pong.
Almost 30 years later would you expect to pay anything to own this game? What if somebody asked for $750 for your very own Pong game. You'd probably start swinging in a rage of furious anger.
Well Above you see the Executive Pong. It's a video game for suits, yuppies and other hob-nobs. The LED projector fits in the palm of your hand. Add some bluetooth controllers and you have yourself a cocktail party favorite.
I hate to be the jerk in the room, but it's still just Pong. Nowadays Pong can capture the attention of a 7 year old for a half-hour and that's if you're lucky. Who would ever pay for this?
Considering my last post I deserve to get slapped if this isn't real. If you find out anything along these lines let me know, I will admit defeat to the day of fools.

this is an April fools day joke from think geek.
just makes your blog look stupid for running it as a a real story
Is that what they call "constructive criticism"?
I like to think that, rather than us looking stupid, it just makes the ThinkGeek people look clever. Kudos to them!
If you read the last sentence of the post I was quit aware of the possiblity that it was an april fools day joke. I actually even attempted to call ThinkGeek, but only got an automated response, so I decided to post it, with that last sentence as a disclaimer.
Hey, it happens. That's what april fools day is all about. My roomate had her grandmother convinced she was pregnant.
Note: No 80's video games were harmed in the production of this post.
