Not me, that's who... doesn't....

But like, apparently the preorders were pretty thick.

So the question is, did the thing sell awesomly or not? I'm thinking.... okay honestly I have no idea, but I'm cautiously saying it did pretty well.

Okay, legal: No. The site seems to be down right now, probably because of high traffic. But how awesome is this? Not only is it a handheld but you can also use it as a console for two player games! I wonder how much it costs and how long the batteries last... now if it could only play SNES games...

Here are the rules:
1. The children are ordinary 5 year olds, race is mixed, and gender is evenly split.
2. You are in an empty lot or basketball court.
3. No weapons allowed
4. The five year olds get one day of combat training for using their numbers against you.
5. You get one hour of training in fighting a mob.
6. Children knocked unconscious lose, if you are knocked unconscious you lose.
7. The children will show NO fear!

How many can you defeat?!

So, can a lightsaber cut through adamantium?

!TAKE NOTE TENDITES!~: The Goron Bureau of Information reports that there are two mysteries surrounding the Tendo City community:


1.) There is a city called Tendo in Japan, and thus is "Tendo City":

2.) There is an evil cult that also has assumed the name of "TCforums", only their address ends in a dot-net:

Denis Dyack: Nintendo was just top kiddy for us, even though I said just a few months before we left them that I wanted to work with them forever. But we soon realized that the future was with Sega, because they are so NOT teh kiddy. Have you seen Shadow the Hedgehog? It's Sonic--with a fucking GUN. That's badass, man!

Sega: We are continually striving to destroy our company. *laughs* I, I gotta tell you, it's taking longer than we thought it would! Haha! Our next step: Hire Trip Hawkins to design our next console.



The news article is somewhere. I'm too lazy to post it. It's true though!

My friend and I where discussing this earlier.
Would science advance, by genetically enganering a baked potato to use as a 10/100 ethernet gateway router?

Discuss....
