Is this for real? Anyone seen one? And why won't they ship it outside Canada.

It's made by HIP right? Hip something, me forgets.

Yes it's quite real and initial reports were that the controller itself was quite heavy (for obvious reasons) and the LCD screen was of very poor quality (for obvious reasons).

FWIW there's a Gamecube version too.

Car trips (but why?) or lan parties I guess

Right now, with my housemate playing KOTOR on the big screen I can see a potential use for the PS2 one.

50% clearance price drop like after a few months it was released. I've seen them go for $39.99 new.

They made them for all three systems. Recalled from GameStop after a few months.

Due to poor sales or a defect?

I would want one of these though... they look interesting...
