It was a press event, Nintendo showed off the goods, Paris showed hers (why was she at Sundance?).
From: http://nintendo-revolution.blogspot.com/ On Nintendo´s press server there is an article summing up Nintendo´s presence at the Sundance film festival. It reads: DID YOU KNOW? NINTENDO DRAWS AN A-LIST CROWD AT SUNDANCE Jan. 25, 2006 Celebrities from the worlds of music, film and television lined up to check out the coolest Nintendo products on display at the Sundance Film Festival. Luminaries like Paris Hilton, Good Charlotte, Rob Lowe, Jessica Biel and the Beastie Boys visited Nintendo this week in Motorola’s Moto on Main celebrity lounge in the heart of Park City, Utah. Visitors to the lounge got to check out all the hottest new Nintendo games for the top-selling Nintendo DS™, Game Boy® Micro and Nintendo GameCube™. Celebs like Lance Bass, Shannon Elizabeth, John Malkovich, Kristen Bell, Lucy Liu, William H. Macy and Tommy Lee received hands-on demos of the Nintendogs™ puppy training program and the hot Mario Kart® DS racing game, which features wireless online play via Nintendo® Wi-Fi Connection. They also got sneak previews of the upcoming Metroid® Prime Hunters, Super Princess Peach™ and Tetris® DS games for Nintendo DS. The music-making program Electroplankton™ piqued the interest of the Beastie Boys, who will receive copies for themselves. Other Nintendo visitors included Minnie Driver, Dennis Quaid, Chris Masterson, Joe Pantoliano, Adrian Grenier, Michael Rapaport, Nick Nolte, Daryl Hannah and Giancarlo Esposito. Nintendo´s James Sakshaug was lucky enough to show their games and hardware to the celebrities, including Mixmaster Mike and the Beastie Boys, which suddenly combines my two main passions in life, for the first time. I just knew they´d love ´Electroplankton´. Want to see for yourself? Head on over to WireImage, search for ´Nintendo´ within the ´Caption´ heading and you´ll see almost three pages of various celebrities playing Micro and DS. Don´t pay too much attention to the taglines, though. They believe Reggie Fils-Aime to be ´CEO Nintendo´ and list Beastie Adam Yauch´s nickname as ´MAC´. Good turnout for Nintendo, though. http://www.wireimage.com/GalleryListing....&logsrch=1

If it gets casual gamers to take notice of Nintendo then I'm all for it.

I suppose... Though, to be honest I wonder if the normal attenders of Sundance weren't offended by what I would call, if I were them, a "corporate spectacle".

They let Paris Hilton in. They don't have the right to be offended by anything.

That's true.

I'd do Paris. She's got DSL. No cable modem for this honey. Prrrowl!
Of course, it'd have to be spontaneous and I'd have to be humilating her the entire time. But I'll leave that part out (even though I just didn't, but I was originally thinking of details).

That's harsh, I like it though.
DJ/ .....Sundance IS a corporate spectacle! It's a bunch of people, may of them new directors, experimental directors, actors who place the art of acting above stardom and then your general line of people who should be castrated through the head, like Paris there. NICK NOLTE WAS THERE Nolte: what's this Reggie: A Nintendo DS! Nolte: can I ENHALE it? Reggie: ...I dont... know... Nolte: *takes deep breaths, pressing nose against DS* Reggie: ...

Inside scoop: That DS was not even on! Paris was simply using the screen's reflective surface to check herself out. Either that, or she was disoriented by being surrounded by people who are famous for a REASON and thought she had found someones makeup compact. Either way, the whole situation spells HILARITY!
The Earthworker Race has ended. Everybody wins.

Are those the Metroid DS's that are rumored? I just noticed that they're a shiny red...
28th January 2006, 10:26 AM
I think they're the ones that come with Mario Kart DS.
