Everything’s small in Japan: a 1.5-incher Wii

These days, things just get smaller and smaller. The old adage of “size matters” is just about as void as the marriage of Spears and Federline. They say that going small is better. Smaller mobile phones, smaller handhelds, smaller everything. But how sure are we that small is always beneficial?

Now, not only can you play your Wii on a laptop. Here’s a vid of some guy (dubbed pekingdbz) playing WarioWare on a 1.5-inch TV screen. Why he’d want to do that, we don’t know. Why someone ever made a 1.5-inch TV in the first place, we don’t know. But from the looks of things, this 1.5-incher is a novelty item straight from Japan, built into a diorama showing a Japanese living room. It’s called the “Shouwa Television” and among one of those gadgets classified as “miscellaneous” or better yet of the “WTF” genre.

I’ll tell you what’s beneficial with this microscopic screen! On the lighter side of things, at least reducing the size of your TV screen reduces that much of your chances of smashing it to itty bitty pieces. Right?
