NCAA Could Live Without USB Desktop Dunk – But Could You?

Written by Richard Blanchard on March 6th, 2008. Posted in Useless Novelty

The catch phrase from Firebox for the USB Desktop Dunk is “Shoot hoops without breaking a sweat.“  Not bad – and looks like a great little gadget gift for the young ones.

Complete with 4 mini basketballs the goal is to bounce them into the hoop.  You can put the USB Desktop Dunk to good office use in “competition mode” which is 2 minutes of pure stress trying to get the high score.  Or, if you need to sharpen those virtual hoop skills, chill  in “continuous play” mode.

For added stimulation, the USB Desktop Hoops game throws out some audio fanfare with every 10 points scored (it scores 2 points per shot).

“It’s just like being an NBA pro, minus the money, the fame, the adulation, the bling and the ability to jump really high. “

Firebox is claiming this USB gadget to be one of the most addictive games they’ve seen.  Here’s an animated .gif for some motivational click through.
