Ever notice that some of the worst singers don’t actually realize how bad they sound? Well, this Scoring Karaoke Game might give them a hint. The microphone can detect the pitch of each note you sing, and rates results accordingly, letting you know if your performance is too high or too low in pitch. The microphone has 100 songs stored in its memory and works wirelessly in conjunction with the control box. Just plug in the box and sing along with songs played via your TV for hours of potentially embarrassing entertainment! You can even download new songs to the microphone via your computer or the machine’s SD card slot. Comes with 2 AA batteries, USB cable, AV cable and AC adapter.

Dropping in just in time for Halloween, the i-Fly Vamp Remote Controlled Flying Bat is sure to spook any onlooker. This bat can flap its wings and even has sinister glowing red LED eyes, so you can see it flying in the dark. Creepy! It also has a patented mechanism that can alter the bat’s wing geometry to allow for turning, either with the wings flapping or in glide mode. The controller works up to 100 feet and also serves as a charger for the bat. You’ll get about 10 minutes of flight time per 30 minute charge. It even comes with an extra set of wings, which a novice user like myself would probably need. i-Fly Vamp via Red Ferret No Comments »

A little geeky for adults but, my kids would so love this Super Mario Chess Set. Of course it’s setup just like any other Super Mario game. Good (Mario) virus evil (Bowser), with all the game characters the world has come to love and obsess over. Mario, the Princess, Yoshi, Bowser and the favs are all included. Even those darn little coins are pawns in the game. 32 hand-painted pieces in all, a metal collectors box, a game board, and instructions. A great way to introduce chess to kids…
There is one little fact I’d like to bring up before you buy the chess set. For some strange reason, Luigi is the Queen in this chess set!? Can’t wait to hear your comments on this one… $40 – Super Mario Chess Set (via Coolest Gadgets) 1 Comment » Posted by: Michelle in Baby, Toys
