Dynacom's Wi Vision: not a Wii, not a vision (it's a knock-off)

Engadget, Posted Jan 18th 2008 7:44AM by Joshua Topolsky

Enter the Wi Vision, a "game console" meant to evoke Nintendo's money-maker by name, though it evokes something decidedly crappier in appearance... like a melting Genesis standing on its side.

What about the specs and price, you ask?
