World of Nintendo
20 more Nintendo happenings in the real world
16)Amaze-o-Nintendo NES bag
Given that games industry people regularly debase themselves for a cheapo branded bag at events such as the Leipzig expo, the maker of this fantastic one-off satchel would have a queue of would-be slaves if she were to take it to the rebranded, invite-only E3 in May.
17)Super Mario trombones
How much you love this will depend on how much you love the soothing tone of the old trombone, but it gets better/funnier/more painful on repeated listenings.
18)Stupid human Mario Kart
What would Mario Kart be like if you replaced the karts with tiny bicycles and swapped the cute Nintendo characters for a bunch of somewhat less cute human beings? The answer is in this video, which mostly involves people throwing things at each other as they attempt to scoot around a park on vehicles far too small for their giant legs. It’s a damning indictment of the game’s shameful disregard for realism.
19)Blue light
Does your nunchuk disappoint you with its lack of a blue light? Follow these simple instructions and, at last, your thumb can be bathed in blueness.
20)Pimp your Wii
Just when we were getting fed up waiting for Nintendo to announce some new colors for Wii, along comes a chrome mod kit that makes us rather thankful our consoles are all decked out in tasteful white.
