...to clamp down on your kids' play time. This handy gadget takes us back to the retro days of arcades by charging Little Jimmy or Jane for their time on the console box. It could be a handy side-earner; invite little Sam and Nora and Betty and Burt and Marvin and Ethel and Mark and Roslyn and Caroline and Gareth and Neil and Sara and all of the rest of the local ankle biters 'round and charge 'em a quarter every time they want to have 15 minutes of token time on Resident Evil 4. Or GTA.
Features include:
• Simple token-activated operation. The PlayLimit system includes 40 tokens — each token allows 15 minutes of game playing or TV viewing. • Ability to control video games and TV viewing. The PlayLimit system includes the necessary cables to connect to a game console and a VCR, DVD player, or cable television source. • On-screen display and audible warnings for time expiration. The large time display on the PlayLimit console warns you when play time is running out so you can save your game or add more tokens. A countdown timer also appears on the TV screen, the TV beeps at intervals. • Pause button allows breaks without losing time. You can press the Pause button at any time so you can leave your game without being penalized. • Secure case with key access for parents. Parents have the key to the token box where they can retrieve tokens. The token box also is where the back panel of the PlayLimit console is secured, preventing cables from being removed. • Additional secured modes for parents. The token box contains switches a parent can set to allow unlimited play or prevent all play.
