Title: So I Got a New Hat...

  Back when Nintendo announced the Platinum rewards for Club Nintendo members, I was offered either a Mario hat or what amounted to a Punch-Out!! demo. I chose the former. Last week, I recieved a simple cardboard box in the mail for NOA (Nintendo of America). Realizing the significance of the parcel, I cut it open only to find a wonderful red hat contained within.    


A note suggested that the hat was not machine-washable, and that all dirt should be cleaned out with a wet rag. It is also, and this is strange, not meant to be worn as an actual hat. Screw that noise! I changed my T-shirt for these pictures, but you should know that the pants were already on.

The shirt could've been a Yellow Cape.

The pants could've been Yoshi Green.

I want those pants.

I chose the WiiWare game because you can always buy the Mario hat on eBay or something, the only way to get the game is from Nintendo. I just got an e-mail saying I have until June 30, 2010 to download it.

I thought for sure that this thread was somehow going to be about this comic (http://www.penny-arcade.com/comic/2002/03/11/).

I miss when Penny Arcade used to be funny.

I still think it is. My friend Marcus and I often read it together, out loud. He's Gabe and I'm Tycho. Brings a whole new level of hilarity to the new and old comics.

Stereotypes about gamers just took two giant leaps backwards.

He decided to Letterman me instead of just giving into my demands behind the scenes.
I'll find another way.
