New Pad Helps Stabilize Board Peripherals, Or Something
We get some strange peripherals in the mail here at GI, but usually not strange peripherals for other strange peripherals. Enter Dek, a new peripheral designed to help increase stability with Tony Hawk's skateboard peripheral, as well as games that utilize the Wii's balance board. Yeah, seriously.
Here's a picture of the pad in its full, creepy suit-wearing monkey glory:
The pad is endorsed by pro rider Pat Milbery. "My board control was greatly improved with the Dek. The Dek graphics make me stoked to play," Milbery is quoted as saying, in a voice we can only assume sounds a lot like Keanu Reeves. If that doesn't sell you on this one-of-a-kind accessory, maybe these pictures of our own lovely Tim Turi using it will:
Here's the Dek, doing what it does. All it does
Look at the stability!
The Dek pad is available for $30 at getdek.com. Not that we're recommending it.
I’d like to ask you to support Game Informer’s continued coverage of games with a subscription. For less than two dollars per issue, we mail you a full year of 10 print magazines, each with cover stories and preview features filled with exclusive details about the most exciting upcoming games. We profile and interview game creators. We look back on the rich history of gaming, and we celebrate what’s next.
Here on the website, we offer much of our content for free, including game reviews, daily news, videos, event coverage, and more – all with minimal ads.
We do so with a small editorial team, alongside contributing paid writers from around the world – over 65 individuals from 9 countries around the world, just in the last couple of years.
It’s not possible without support.
In a time when game makers and games coverage have faced hard struggles and layoffs, the future of this 30+ year magazine and community is at risk. Our new standalone magazine subscription is the number one way you can keep us alive – and we believe you’ll get a pretty fantastic gaming magazine in your mailbox every few weeks for your trouble.
Thank you.
