Alright. I’m not even sure how to get started on this one. I’m not sure what the hell I was expecting when I got this email.. but I don’t think that was it. The premise is actually kind of cool in a weird, I’m not sure I want to admit that I want one, kind of way. Essentially it’s a plush that can definitely be used like a pillow. I can see me getting comfy with this and settling in for a round of Street Fighter. The sting of getting my ass kicked might be a little less hurtful while I’m cuddled up to one of these.
The press release (which you can of course view in its entirety below) does bring up a point I hadn’t considered. This could be fabulous for cosplayers. Think about it! Now when you HADOKEN you can really HADOKEN, if you are just acting out the moves for fun or as part of your cosplay. For the price of $24.99 the power can be all yours to wield!
I guess if you are into plushies, you cosplay, or you are a Street Fighter lover.. this ball might be for you?
