It’s time you faced facts.
Everything that was groundbreaking and amazing to you as a child is LAME to your kid.
Case in point: back in the day you probably won the adoration of your school with a public Simon exhibition, but kids today are pretty nonplussed by a giant Frisbee that lights up and beeps, which is why you need a Hasbro Electronic Hyperslide. Everywhere Simon zigs, this thing says, “OMG LOLZ U R TEH SUXX!1!!eleventy!”
Keep your colored plastic pads, old man. This thing’s got hyper discs that, instead of mashing with your grubby little mitts, you zip, shoot, and slide under the little archway in the order that the voice calls. Yes, this thing speaks. And lights up. And plays music. And to think you were impressed with a tone and a light. What a moron!
It’s got four different modes, and on the off chance your kid’s got a friend they can play two player mode. You might not be cool or able to understand their newfangled toys, but the good news is they’ll still need you to buy the AA batteries.
If you’ve got a little one under six or so, pass on this one. They might be as confused as you are with this. But it’ll be even more embarrassing if they’re not.
