The Viagra mouse's ball being grossly over-lubed is hysterical. For a promotional product, they really went the extra mile.

"lubricated laughter" ahaha. I love it when creators add in extra fun for those of us that like subtitles

Those puns during the Viagra mouse bit were rock solid

the viagra car mouse was definitely facing some "stiff" competition in the car shaped mouse world

I cannot believe the Viagra mouse stands up when the user touches it. The designers must have laughed during testing and decided it was a feature.

"The scroll wheel is rather unsatisfying and rather small." I thought Clint was done with the Viagra puns by the time he got to the bullet mouse, but I was wrong.

Ironically, the Viagra mouse was really hard to use.

As a child I remember finding a Bulletmouse in my mom's bedside cabinet, really cool to see one in an LGR video!

"The reason this sucks is because it's awful" Fair.

It’s pretty common here in Europe too. Not as extensively and generally limited to pharmacies though: gifts are a way to convince them to suggest that specific company’s product instead of a competitor’s. Not really a healthy practice, but it’s thankfully heavily mitigated by a legal obligation to inform clients about equivalent drugs by lesser known brands, which are chemically identical but cheaper.

Stiff floppy, short chord, lubed ball - that Viagra mouse is the gift that keeps on giving

Three Weird Computer Mice is my new favorite show! I can't wait to see what the next three mice are!

"Viagra made a car-shaped mouse" is not a sentence I thought would ever exist.

I can't wait for more adventures from the Box of Stupid Mice. Those puns gave me a long hard smile.

2:21 Clint just casually dropping puns, absolutely relentless

When Clint was mentioning the Viagra mouse short chord I truly expected him to say "I hear they have a pill for that"

The Viagra mouse is genius design, it literally makes it hard for you.

"3 and a half inch floppy." Good thing there's Viagra for the floppy. Not sure how much it helps that length part. Not that size matters, tho.

Holy crap I had that Viagra mouse when I was in high school. It's just as LGR says. People representing the brand come into doctors offices all the time pushing their product and give out dumb little gifts. My mom would bring home weird plushies, mice, flash drives all with a product name on it and this was one of them.

A4 tech 4D mices came in multiple flavours, and they all were awesome. I had one of these, but with USB cable (not wireless). And it was awesome. And the middle button menu was the best thing for a programmer. As well as the vertical scrolling :)

On a totally unrelated note: "Viagra, Bullets and the 4th Dimension" is a great movie titel…

Considering he was ripped into his 50's, Viagra was the PERFECT sponsor for Mark.

This is a level of subtle pun overload I've rarely experienced.

Clint going full Carolina at the end was definitely something

The 4D mouse was the mouse of choice at the cyber cafe I went when I was a kid. We used to throw of the aim of some other kids that were playing Counter-Strike with a spare mouse from behind their chairs since it can pickup the infrared from afar

I remember we also had that kind of strange/funny/sometimes stupid little gifts when I was in the French Navy. I often came back home with some watches, plushies, pens and USB drives with something related to the French Navy printed on them. I even had a USB key where the casing was made from the alloys used for the engines of the Rafale. Inside I had some videos of the presentation of the Rafale by Dassault in the old days and a desktop them with all the noises and cursors related to the Rafale Marine. Lol I really liked this one, tbh.

the 4d mouse seems like it really would've appealed to spreadsheet workers

A4Tech always had some strange budget features. I remember my "wireless, batteryless" mouse. It arrived with a mousepad connected to USB transferring power wirelessly to the mouse and recieving its input. That means it did not work away from the surface of the pad provided by them, but who cared, it did not need batteries! And was wireless! :) Nice piece for its time, hope You get hands on one day. I gave mine away sadly. As always- great video. Thank You.

What I love best is when you find absolutely ridiculous looking mice that you conclude are actually not bad at all.

Damn the puns, and triple-entendres. Curiously though, I'd have thought the Viagra hardware would have gotten rid of any software. Also, Hard Drivin' for the DOS might have a been a game to try. Though, even that had worked, I'd wager the steering would have been stiff. 4D mouse would actually be useful for scrolling through PDF files. I often read service manual, which have minute text and pictures on them, so a +100% zoom is constant, as is scrolling in the, 4th dimension, which we all know, is horizontal. Would the programmable button have been useful for rudimental macro key inputs? Or could the extra scroll wheel be used for, say, gear shift in racing games?

I can't stop giggling at the "no gun required" thing on the package for the bullet mouse.

The drifting on the "4D mouse" is probably due to the roller only being on one side, and when the mouse is moved too fast the mouse ball is bumped against the opposite side of the cradle and not making contact with the roller anymore. I assume the mouse would behave the same with fast up and down motion as well.

Ah yes, the Ford Taurus Viagra mouse. Just what everyone wants!

I could see two scroll wheels being really helpful for graphic design. I'm often holding the key command to scroll horizontally when using Illustrator, PhotoShop and InDesign, so it would be handy to just be able to do that with my mouse

I had one of these great 4D Mice that had a ball instead of the Mousewheel. The idea was not bad but it also meant that you could never really scroll either straight up/down or straight sideways. I still ended up using it for quite some time.

I had a double wheeled mouse, much like that 4D one. This would have been around 2004-ish(?) It was optical, and the double offset wheels, made scrolling really fast. I loved that mouse. It got run over all of things! It fell out of my bag when packing up at a LAN party and I failed to notice. I started backing out, heard a crunch, got out and saw my beloved pointer flattened in the driveway.

"This floppy is quite stiff" - LGR

Seeing that storage I feel like someone's going to do a tour of LGR's collection in 30 or 40 years.

Fun fact about that NASCAR car you were talking about: in 2002 it came 2nd in the championship with Mark Martin, after a five-way battle for the championship went straight into the dumpster in the final stretch of races. It was Mark's 4th runner-up championship finish in his 15th try. Tony Stewart would eventually win the championship in 2002.

As a Brit I sometimes watch live American telly so I can watch nascar, and me and my mrs are completely flabbergast to how strongly you guys get advertised prescription drugs. Over here people are generally unaware about any kind of medication aside from what’s prescribed by the GP. Generally though unless you’re exempt any prescription is £7 regardless of what it is whereas you guys get totally shafted. We’re expecting our first baby and we won’t pay a penny at point of service to have it at the hospital whereas you guys expect to pay like 50k!

"I can't wait to plug this in!" Oh god. That is not what I needed to go with my morning coffee.

I loved my A4Tech mouse back in the day. It was the best optical mouse I was able to find at the time, and it was only $15-$20 at a computer fair.

Every line of dialogue during the Viagra segment is everything I could have ever opened for

Man, the Viagra mouse segment had the puns I expected, but the history of the drug as well as the critique of the American healthcare system was cool 👍

Imagine you go to the doctor's getting told your terminal while he is drifting a NASCAR around on his desk

The remark about unobservable spacetime earned my like and then some. Thanks for all of the high-quality, free video content over the years, LGR.

Was disappointing that the viagra mouse wasn’t shaped like the pill

love seeing all dose old pc´s in the background makes me happy

so what you're saying is, the Viagra mouse was a bit "dysfunctional"

These vids are great for if I'm ever sent back in time to the late 90s, I'll know exactly what cool tech to buy

I love how the 4d mouse box says their product is 30% faster than 400 DPI with no context at all

my new favorite channel, LazyMouseReviews. I love it.

Overlubed ball and a stiff disk. Yep, it's an LGR video alright That bullet mouse, even today, would fit in perfectly on the hardgoods shelves of a Duluth Trading Co store

The bit about an optical mouse in the 4D mouse was under a section advertising other mouses in their lineup.

Around 1998-2000, I thought that soon all mice will have two scroll wheels. It was just SO useful when making stuff in CorelDRAW! The wheel was saving a lot of time when creating details in images, especially when drawing precise Bezier curves - you could draw at high amplification, and easily scroll the screen for the next part of the curve. I had several 2-scroll A4Tech mouses over the years; only moved on after I stopped creating graphics.

The 4D mouse is pretty neat. I’d move the receiver back a bit cause that light would drive me nuts. The packaging could use some corrections 🤔 but other than that, super cool!

the short cable from the Taurus makes kinda sense when you remember that back then many practiioners had those small computercases which sat under the monitor on the desk. Not that it makes that thing any better...

So, let me get this Viagra mouse thing straight: • The part that was supposed to be long was short. • The front end goes up when you use it. • Using it is really *hard.* • As in, you had almost no control over it. • It had way too much lube applied. • It's black and larger than your average mouse. • If you're not careful, it could cause pain. • LGR was done after using it for only a few minutes. • After LGR used it, the ball was dry.

Moment i saw the title I knew exactly what you had on your hands, I had the Mark Martin Viagra mouse as a kid, one of the few pieces of merch i got during his time flying the Viagra flag!

I put this on and my cat loved it. She was captivated the second you plugged in the Viagara mouse

I love the emphasis on all the things that could be a joke about Viagra. XD

@LGR Clint, this was definitely an oddware episode. Funny as all heck too!

You just couldn't resist making a "stiff competition" joke about the Viagra mouse, could you? It's okay, I wouldn't have been able to stop myself, either.

It makes sense that the Viagra mouse would have been PS/2 in the early 2000s, since hospital computer equipment is about 10-15 years behind normal consumer electronics.

I think maybe Viagra should have teamed up with the "bullet mouse" instead of nascar. The levels of irony would not be lost on today market.

11:58 Looking at the picture on that box, it looks like the wired version was optical. Makes sense as early optical wireless mice had very bad response times and battery life.

Innuendo was approaching "Mark Fixes Stuff" levels with the Viagra mouse.

“Stiff competition” 😂 You crack me up little buddy!

27:00 WTF - Redneck Hunting has PiP scopes? That's actually impressive! Most AAA games today still don't have that.

Never thought I’d hear my hometown of IGH mentioned on LGR, another fun trip through Crazy Mouse Land.

I used to have a 4D mouse. Probably one of the best mice I have ever owned.

I love how you made so many euphemisms (stiff, lubed, rub it the wrong way, push it up, short cord, etc) without even chuckling. I wouldn't have been able to make all those passive comments without laughing out loud. Always looking forward to your next video. Cheers!

No no no, the actual mouse is 4 dimensional, you're only interacting with the 4D object's 3D shadow

The a4tech R4 mouse that I have been using for the past couple of years now, really seems to be indestructible. Also, even though it looks as if it was made for lefties, I think it is one of the most comfortable mice that I have ever used. A4tech really doesn't seem to be such a bad manufacturer of mice 🤓👍🏻

I absolutely Loved your Double Innuendos with the Viagra Mouse! 🤣

Never thought I would ever be watching a video about a mouse for a computer from viagra and the irony that it's so lubed on the mouse ball.

Am surprised at how well the infrared on the 4D mouse worked.

Really loving this weird mice series ngl!

The A4Tech software looks identical to the stuff AOpen used to bundle with their mice. Kudos on all the puns btw 😂

10:46 The package contents for the 4D mouse are on the side of the box, that 3.5mm cable is not supposed to come with it. Also the cable isn't inside the compartment with the transmitter, it is sitting on the side wedged in by the mouse where anyone could just steal it from the front of the box. I pretty sure someone else stuck that 3.5mm cable in there and that it didn't actually come like that from the factory.

"This is awesome" That's what I said when I got my first USB optical mouse. Compared to what I was dealing with, everything before was garbage.

The 4D mouse came with a lot of cheap supermarket computers in the late 90s here in Germany. This was one of the things that immediately told me „you will spend the next hours cleaning up the system tray for a bar of chocolate in front of this heap of crap your relatives bought“. I guess the wheel that picks up the ball was read by an optical sensor which was enough for them to market it as optical.

The car mouse seems to firmly stand far and above the rest of the competition

Clint really hit me deep with all those hard and fast puns in the beginning!

The short cord makes sense back in the 2000s since they probably rested their monitor on the tower. So the travel wasn't as far.

A4 Tech, thats a name I haven't heard in a long time. I recall in the 90's they used to be really common here in Australia, but over time Microsoft and Logitech, and others became more popular. Good to see they're still around. Regarding the Viagra mouse - regarding your comments on drug advertising on TV - we never see that here as its completely illegal, but having started a new career in the TV industry last year, I occasionally watch live broadcasts from the US (usually live sport), and get to see the raw feed from the US before its overlaid with the local Australian ads, graphics, etc. Seeing your drug ads was a bit of a shock at first, and nearly 12 months on I still giggle every time I see them, because its just something you never see here.

4:55 the car is trying to get upright... It's not a design flaw, it's a feature, considering the manufacturer 😉

Stiff, lubed up, turned on. These Viagra puns are killing me

I'd say the 'lube' in the Viagra mouse would be leaky capacitor juice.

"Stiff competition" I see what you did there, Clinto

The saddest thing about this video is that the mouse software seems simpler and more intuitive than Logitech's GHub. I hate GHub so much.

You had probably the longest run of innuendo humor I've ever seen!

Hi Clint! I've had this A4Tech 4D mouse (wired version) back then and it was really usefull. I can't remember how I did it exactly, but the secund scroll was mapped as "double speed scroll" and the early internet browsing has become a pleasure! ;)

Clint, I loved all the subtle innuendos for the Viagra Mouse. It gave me a nice laugh.

A race car? Viagara should have used the Logitech Cyberman instead. Now that thing was stiff.

Omg must have been hard to think of all of those puns during the Viagra mouse. You clearly had too much fun with yourself there 😂

I had this 4D Mouse. It was commendable.

1:55 "It had some other uses that 'popped up' during testing." Nice word choice there haha

Fun fact: Viagra can randomly cause sudden, irreversible vision loss in some people. Be careful out there.

Your laugh is so contagious…good stuff lgr
