Now I'm glad I waited. Here's the breakdown:
1. A
Suicide Girls member (not one of the models) says that their favorite games include
Mario and
Zelda.
2. SG admin gets
form letter from a
Nintendo attorney.
3. The form letter is
very widely publicized (in an Internet sense of the words, anyway).
4.
Nintendo apologizes, even offering a free system and game (to steal a joke from about a million people, make mine Virtual Boy
Panic Bomber and a
64DD).
5. Apology is
widely publicized
(in an Internet sense of the words, anyway).
So how's that for a non-story?
Also, Slate staff
disclose who they're voting for and why.
