HOW NINTENDO IS SELLING Wii TO WOMEN (GETTING FIT AND ANIMAL CROSSING)
This is a promotional (ie, paid for by Nintendo) advertorial (ie, an advert pretending to be part of the magazine) in UK magazine Prima.
What's unusual about this is that Prima isn't a video game magazine, it's a magazine about clothes and shopping and diets and "Ooh! This one's got flowers on it!" aimed at bored housewives.
Nintendo is saying that Wii is family fun that could stop your wayward 14-year-old daughter huffing lighter fluid and wanking off boys in stolen cars. Before you know it your family will be like a family from a TV sitcom instead of like a family from the news, all thanks to the unifying family force of... Nintendo Wii.
"Time indoors can be quality time too". It's nice to see a positive spin applied to the world's most anti-social hobby.
We've got another girlfriend off MySpace.
AND WHAT IS THIS?! Has Nintendo granted the Wii Animal Crossing world exclusive first-look to UK woman magazine Prima?!
The "health benefits of a little light exercise"? Nintendo is trying to make Wii sound like something that will make fat women thin. This could be a genius move. After all, this is how we became lettuce millionaires in the early 1980s.
Prima - first for Nintendo Wii exclusives. And also for stuff about PMT and hormone replacement therapy and what trousers to wear to the office party.

that animal crossing thing looks like a new warioware minigame.
Women shouldn't be able to play ANY games at all. They get enough fun out of cleaning, cooking and ironing.
I'm just cracking up at the line "Turn off the TV", clearly the Prima writers don't actually know what a games console is
So Zorg, Did you scan in your own copy or borrow yer mam's?
Cosmo would have had more wank opportunities.
and it would have told you 100 ways to improve your wanking.
I can't believe they got Gillian Mckeith to endorse it in that top pic
Zorg probably works in Superdrug. No doubt reads Prima in between serving customers and updating this site on his wanky 3g phone*.
Word verification was "adpenemq", sounds like a suppository or something...
*probably why updates are so sparse, takes a fucking week using the keypad input
The Animal Crossing thing's already in Nintendo Official Magazine. It's a mini-game on the new Wario Ware.
I want one! I SO want one!
A Wii would be nice too!
It's worse than Prima writers telling you to Turn off the TV!, this is a "Advertisement Feature" which means Nintendo themselevs are saying the best way to play Wii is to turn off the TV, having seen the Red Steel videos they may be on to something.
Still, it's nice to finally see a Nintendo advert which shows loads of screenshots instead of a never ending string of numptys on a sofa.... HEYWAIDDAMINUTE!
Now for the important part... would, would, wouldn't, would, wouldn't, would, wouldn't, would, would, wouldn't, would, wouldn't would.
hey er... didn't the triforce write a book of the same title? cough.
time indoor's = jerking of to that MILF on the last cover.
Could do with more lesbians.
Can't someone hire one of those 'barely legal' porn starlets (complete with braces) to shove the controllers up her arse and vag AT THE SAME TIME?
And then take pictures, obviously.
that animal crossing pic is actually from wario ware
Nintendo :puke: The only thing I'd buy it for would be NiGHTS: JOD
Heck every little console nowadays is :puke: God bless my saturn and dreamcast to live until the end of times.
