That’s ONE way to sell PS3 Controllers

The other night, Lono and I had to make a late night run to Walmart to get some medicine for his daughter, and while he was searching for the right medicinal concoction, this caught my eye.

Can you guess what it is you are looking at? Here’s a closer shot of the hilarity, after the jump.

Obviously Microsoft is paying big money for these endcap displays, and I can’t help but feel they might have a problem with this. Alex and I have decided that at least one misguided parent or relative, is going to see the Xbox logo, and pick up a controller for the wrong system.

Given the sales numbers for the PS3, I can’t guess I blame Walmart for doing ANYTHING to unload all of those extra Sixaxis Controllers.

    Well, I guess you gotta do what you gotta do to get rid of the controllers, even if it means selling them under your competitions brand name. Of course, I could see a unaware mom picking up the controller thinking it was an xbox controller. I know my mom would.
