Nintendo Wii Wannabes

I love the International Gateway section of CES, where more than 800 exotic exhibitors seek U.S. distributors for their under-the-radar gadgets. It’s discouraging, though, to see several Nintendo Wii clones (complete with motion controllers) that you could almost mistake for the real thing -- until you see the crappy-looking games on offer, that is.
