Sega Toys indoor fireworks projectorFireworks are awesome. Big booms accompanied by pretty lights are always cool. But alas, indoor fireworks are dangerous. So rainy days tend to be boring. Not anymore. Sega Toys has unveiled the Uchiage Hanabi. Now you can get your fireworks on indoors.

It’s a projector that displays “fireworks” on your walls and ceilings, with realistic movement and sound. You can even create your own fireworks and program your own shows. You won’t feel the booms and you won’t smell the smoke, but at least it’s pretty.

Feeding Nemo: Sega Toys’ handheld aquariumThis device looks like a Wiimote and an iPod collided at seaworld. It’s a toy that’s similar to the Tamogotchi toys, but in this case it features a fish in an aquarium that is displayed on the screen. Your mission should you choose to accept it, is to take care of it so that it survives. Your fish grows, but so does the world around it, giving you some interesting game options.

You can play using a dolphin or an angelfish and it even has three mini games you can play with your digital pet. If you love virtual fish, this device is good for all ages and may even teach kids how to care for a fish, though I doubt it. Keeping a real fish swimming takes more then button pushing.
