  1. Awesome stuff, I'm going to have to go somewhere as mario and take some pics. Somewhere like a birthday party. Or the pub. Or work.
  2. Come on, own up! I have... A pair of Nintendo boxer shorts: For some reason my girlfriend didn't look as impressed as I'd hoped when I first got them, and proudly displayed them by dancing in front of her singing the mario tune. A mario baseball hat: Or I will have once Mr Ebay Seller Man posts it A pack of nintendo playing cards: And I've also got my girlfriend 2 Nintendo related prezzies for Christmas/birthdays: A plush yoshi: And Super Monkey Ball figures: And one of my mates from the pub has this Nintendo beanie:
  3. Aye, I'm sure that 3motion put theirs together on the bus on the way to E3.
  4. However the revo controller is remarkably similar to this, http://www.gamesindustry.biz/news.php?aid=8294 , revealed months and months before Nintendo first announced their "revolution" in control
  5. Ocean finance adverts at least have some redeeming features. They surprise you with each new set by doing what you would think was impossible, getting even uglier people to interview. And they expect you to take financial advice from the interviewees, people who got themselves into so much debt that they had to take out a high-interest loan secured on their home that they'll be paying off for the rest of their natural life!
  6. Dammit, scrolled down all the posts, just about to post about the Sony bouncy balls one and someone beat me to it! George Foreman cracks me up too. The advert I am so utterly sick of it's unbelievable is the WKD blue panda pop advert with the 2 blokes racing to the fridge in slow mo. How come they're still running it, they wanked it dry months ago, and it wasn't funny in the first place. It's on every single break on Sky Sports. My mate went and lived in America for 8 months, came back and the first thing he said when he met us in the pub and looked at the TV was "Is that bloody advert still on?!"
  7. I know! You know like how kids play with toy cars? Maybe you could like get on your knees with the rev controller and move it along the floor going "Nnnnnrrrrrr, Nnnnnnn, NRRRRR!" to make the car go round the track.
  8. Quality shop, got a mate who works there.
  9. E-mailed them telling them not to bother, and that we really don't want Dobly 5.1. Didn't really, e-petitions don't work anyway. But I really don't care about it to be honest, I'd rather they didn't bother and kept the price down. EDIT: Why e-petitions aren't worth the paper they're not written on: http://www.snopes.com/inboxer/petition/internet.htm
  10. "Together, these companies are known for such properties as Blinx" Hmmm...
  11. They've got cracking names. Shifty powers, Sergent Malarky...
  12. Couldn't you have used the same argument against mixed race couples having kids in the 50s/60s? Would it have been irresponsible for mixed race couples to have children, because it would be unfair on the kid if kids at school bullied them saying "Your Dad's a xxxxxxx" or whatever?
  13. Notice that the only state to suffer an attack in the US, along with the cities containing the financial, high-casualty and symbolic targets voted against Bush, and the people out in the sticks who are highly unlikely to have an Al Quaeda piloted plane flown into their barn killing 2 cows and a farm hand voted for him.
  14. Don't forget there are Christian groups who think 9/11, hurricanes, the london bombings were all God's wrath against The US / England for accepting homosexuals. The ones who celebrate coalition deaths in Iraq and wave signs saying "Thank God for dead troops", "Thank God for 9/11" and "Thank God for AIDS". Nice people.
  15. I can't help but smile when I hear "Adam and Eve, not Adam and Steve" soundbite. I don't really think the Garden of Eden is a place to look to for relationship advice, bearing in mind their children presumably had sex with their sisters in order to populate the planet. As for Christian Extremists, I think the Westborough Baptist Church, along with those who bomb abortion clinics would all come under that term.
  16. Most of this political correctness stuff is just made up anyway. "They've banned people from saying Merry Christmas", "You're not allowed to say blackboard". Who's they? My housemate, 2 friends and both my parents are teachers, no-one's ever told them not to say blackboard. That whole "Natwest have banned piggy banks to avoid offending Muslims" story was a big porkie as well. But people just eat it up and take it as gospel along with "Asylum seekers eat our donkeys" http://www.abc.net.au/mediawatch/transcripts/s1494636.htm
  17. Maybe these people would have something to say about it if Nintendo went too heavy on the patents, bearing in mind they unveiled it in May http://www.3motion.co.uk/html/home.htm
  18. The cheekiest thing about GAME is their "lowest price guarantee!" sticker on every game they've got labled as £39.99 which is 30-35 quid at just about any indy games shop you want to walk in.
  19. Picked it up months ago from my friendly local gameshop (The same one that always breaks release dates and was letting people buy Mario Kart yesterday ) Is it still not out over here? That's ridiculous!
