So now rather than losing 1 game, you can lose up to 10 games at a time while connected to this POS...That's the Dufus certified product of the year...As a matter of fact something that ridiculous deserves a whole new category...Something like Dufisity-someone or something exhibiting the characteristic of a dufus... :kekeke:

A Juice Box is a kids mutimedia player like the Tiger Video Now systems that play cartridges with cartoons and other videos on them similar to the cartoon video carts you can play on the GBA.

I'm pretty sure if a man buys one of these, when he gets it, his penis falls off or shrinks off. Pretty lame idea.

Dude! Ads for Juice Box and VideoNow are all over children's programming. You can't go a half hour without seeing an ad for either or both on Kid's WB, Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, or Disney Channel.

I don't get any of those channels up here in Kanadia :D
I'm assuming this "Juicebox" you speak of is a total piece...?

Yeah. Both JuiceBox and Video Now look like junk. There's really no need for any of it if you have a VHS or DVD player.

My little brother has a video now. It's actually pretty cool and gets great battery life. The video quality is pretty bad though. He's 2 so there is no way I'm letting him hold my dvd player!

I remember seeing a commercial for the juicebox... I thought it was going to be an inexpensive sd/compactflash player. Guess I was wrong, good thing I forgot the name of it just after I saw the commercial.

There is actually a 60 dollar kit that comes with a USB CF (I think it was CF anyway, could have been SD) reader, and 32mb card, and some software to put music on the thing. I thought the juicebox was going to be shit compared to the Video Now since its cart based, but it looks like its pretty cool.

Now if someone would find a way to burn discs for video now.......

There is a way.

I'm not giving you a link because you knew the only reason I wanted one was because you could burn discs for them.

Not to mention that it's not even worth it to get a VideoNOW color player with the prices of portable DVD players reaching the sub $100 range.

I guess the VN player is more durable.
