Look, Let's Tap is ridiculous. We know this. But it's the kind of ridiculous so extreme, I can't help being excited about it--especially because, honestly, the game is kind of fun. Playing games with a cardboard box is either the stupidest idea ever, or the smartest idea ever, or perhaps both.

Here's a new trailer.
  


Here's the box art.


As of press time, Sega still has not responded to inquiries about the inclusion of a special box controller within the shipping box.

The E3 bombcast about Let's Tap is an instant classic.

Who can afford four cardboard boxes during the current economic difficulties?  Get real, Nintendo.

To think this guy brought us Sonic the hedgehog. The box looks like any generic Wii 3rd party game out there. Might get it if its cheap

I'm curious how it works with that stupid condom on the wiimote absorbing the minute vibrations.  And the box art makes it look like some sort of keep the dildo away from me game.  The game itself looks fun and has some great music, but I'm afraid the stupidity of the Western Wii audience has ruined any chance for this game.

As for it coming with an extra box, I'm sure it's extra money and perfect to bilk money out of the saps.
