Only in Japan: Potty Games


Guys, ever get bored while taking a whiz? Ever wish you had some kind of motivation to keep your stream flowing? Well move on over to Japan and all your problems can be solved! Japanese game company Sega, famous for bringing us iconic figures as Sonic the Hedgehog, have created a new urinal based gaming interface. The game, called “Toirettsu", works like this. Players earn points by actually aiming at sensors inside the urinal. 

According to this article on Popsci.com,  the games have been installed into restaurants and other public areas to prompt men to stop aiming at the floor. You can expect more games like to pop up around the country as it provides convince for workers and advertisement for the companies involved.  Sorry ladies, you won't be finding this game any of your restrooms. For now this is only for men, and only in Japan.
