Wait, Wait, Wait... The Wii Remote Accessory is a Baby?
Written by Jasmine Maleficent Rea   

It's standard knowledge that the majority of games released on the Wii are targeted to children in some fashion. But so far the marketing to girls in the depths of their baby doll obsession is limited. That was until the advent of Baby and Me [via Technabob]:

So, it is a game marketed with a baby doll.... The catch is that the Wii Remote goes inside the doll to monitor how the player treats it. If you shake this baby, the Wii will know, and that eerie blue light could possibly be the system pinging the appropriate law officials.

Baby and Me also supports the Wii Balance Board, allowing you to rock the baby to sleep. Sounds riveting -- we'll take a whole set.

Interesting concept. I just hope the poor baby doll won't get shaken around as much as a Wiimote.

Their is something very unsettling to me about how little girls are marketed to. Everything is cooking and cleaning and baby making and fashion. Seems horribly sexist but it's almost a tradition at this point. Like encouraging little boys to go off to war.

I just got me a new phobia.

Oh. My. God.

This is clearly a sign of the apocalypse.

I'm mostly freaked out by how pink and pale that little girl's face is.

Welcome to my Gamefly queue. Seriously, with this and Party Babyz, the Wii is becoming the console of choice for weird uncles everywhere.
