The Jinsei Game Puchi by Taraka Tomy...play+exercise!

The Jinsei Game Puchi is a celebratory product as Jinsei Game (game of life) celebrates its 40th anniversary. They have now come up with the Jinsei Game Puchi which is a pedometer-based game. First things first, A pedometer or step counter is a device, in modern times usually portable and electronic or electromechanical, that counts each step a person takes by detecting the motion of your hips. Takara Tomy is releasing a toy that mixes the exercise qualities of the Lap Around Japan toy with the tamagotchi-like interactivity of Takara Tomy’s other “jinsei series” products

The game has a very peculiar function as you cant play till you get some excercise and when I say exercise I mean 300 tiring steps. With every 300 steps you take, the wheel gets a single spin to move you through the game. 300 steps for a single spin. This doesn't work for me, may be Roger federer will buy Jinsei Game Puchi after it is made available at the end of July 2008.
