I liked it.

 

I had bought those for my son.  Of course now that he is six, he perfers puzzlers, platformers, and RPGs.

I wonder though if what Nintendo is proposing to patent is using the IR for these games. Because as others have said, they have been around (including by Nintendo) almost since the start of video games.
