Oh yeah, a toy that teaches you how to utilize 'The Force'. You know, from Star Wars.

The Force Trainer (expected to be priced at $90 to $100) comes with a headset that uses brain waves to allow players to manipulate a sphere within a clear 10-inch-tall training tower, analogous to Yoda and Luke Skywalker's abilities in the Star Wars films.​

First of all, being able to manipulate a ping pong ball IS IN NOT WAY analogous to Yoda and Luke Skywalker's abilities -- those dudes could throw ****ing spaceships around.

A state of deep concentration is needed to achieve a Force-full effect. "When you concentrate, it activates the training remote," says Frank Adler of toymaker Uncle Milton Industries, which is creating the Trainer. "There is a flow of air that will move the (ball). You can actually feel like you are in a zone."​

Deep concentration....in a zone....hmmm, that sounds familiar -- of course, Skee-ball!

so when you think hard it reads the brainwaves which causes a fan to blow and make the ping pong ball rise?
