New GAP site = Nintendo Meets Hampsterdance
Huh?
I don't get it.
Yes, you can simulate trying on clothes and wardrobe combinations but the quality of the clothing a characters is lousy on account of the characters having to dance.
Not a bad idea on paper but it's neither entertaining or helpful in terms of using it as a clothing simulation.
So, I don't get where this is going.

I think the point is that it's a stripper. It's supposed to be funny. It's not a clothing simulation... It's a strippogram to send your friends.

Hi Sean, I think you're quite right.
Perhaps unfortunately for me, I found it neither entertaining nor titillating.
If it was either, I think I could have gotten on board.
(Although in retrospect, I do recall not being in the most jovial of moods which shouldn't have but did perhaps affected my take on it).
That said, I'd still argue that in terms of execution it falls far short of subservient chicken or virtual bartender in terms of its strength as a viral.
