Six of the most memorable video game-related kids meal premiums, ever
Sure, they aren’t nearly as fancy as $100+ statues but kids meal toys they are certainly more affordable.

Check out this giant 4-month-old baby using a WiiMote like a phone. See, the Wii’s motion sensitive controller is so simple, even a baby can use it.
