Your wife is gorgeous.

/late

Hahah, what???

She does look really beautiful. o_o

They're going to find more pictures, you know.
More!

now you're just bragging, Bashcraft...

Question is Bash, how did you find this?

COngrats Ash your wife is very pretty. I assume Mini bash got the looks from her? haha i kid. But the internet is full of closet pervs

@icepick314: Ohh and agreed. I now envy Mr. Bashcraft

That guy in the background looks overdue for a shave.

I mean.. lolwut?

@Balance_In_Life: I'm sure his wife was thinking the same thing :P "I was doing important research on ... Sexy Japanese Gaming women... I'll just go to sleep on the couch now..."

Yes. i like.

@Anemone: We are both banned... /cry

@Balance_In_Life:

lol. i think some people are going to get banned for stupid comments though. you two should be fine :p

Nice! Upon further investigation, the DS appears to be "promo-ing" a Gintama game.

@shindokie: Damn it, I was gonna go to bed too. Now with what this thread should do to the Kotaku population i can't help but stay up and watch. Well I guess I can always sleep when I'm dead! :P

Critical Blow Ruisu has taken 9999 Damage

Next, Bash will be telling us how he's eating some heavenly new Pocky flavor available only in Japan. *grumble*grumble*....you insensitive prick.

Does that come with a huge stylus? That huge DS?

Nice Work Bashcraft *high fives*

@Balance_In_Life:

But if you die you will miss whats to be the next chapter because Ash is ninja and will down the sights that display his wife. Shit i would. I got your back Ash, Now to sleep with my eyes open. I just hope i wake up and i'm not banned :X

I'll be in my bunk.

@shindokie: TAKE down*** edit ninja button please

You're a very lucky man. With that cool son of yours, you must have the good life!

I'm sure you will be telling this one at parties to come.

If thats a real DS she must be like 4 inches tall! My god man good catch.

I saw a big PSP like that at Wal Mart. but it was like some skin for a TV.

Poor Mrs. Bash! The reposting of the pic is sure to guarantee it ends up on another unsavory site in the near future...

Wow that's creepy.

@xpnet: I had a joke to say but well. It pales in comparision to yours so i have no comment on the picture.

i would say she isn't hot so it seems i'm not sucking up. Result head chopped off
I would say she's caliente but it would seem i'm too overly complimenting her for just her looks. Result head chopped off

so after seeing those choices... that DS is PHAT with a capital H O T

Hmmm...
Looks like she likes to have fun with oversized objects...

That's the internet for you, right there. I hope she's not offended.

Is that DS just needlessly big because it can be, or what? Unless that top screen is some sort of tv, it seems pretty pointless. It would be cool if the touchscreen could be used to select trailers or something, but that doesn't seem to be the case. Oh well, it prints money and all that, so whether or not Nintendo used odd promotional gimmicks seems to be inconsequential at this point.

not to sound like an ass, but I wasn't expecting Mrs. Bashcraft to be so...hot.

edit: I just clicked the link. lol @ the lady holding the N64 controller. Reminds me of the stock 'people playing games' photos used by companies in their catalogues over here.

We had those Huge DS TV thigns in AUS for the Connection tours. The pokeman battles would be played out on them.

@Zyzex_Remix: If Ashcraft looks like a rock star, it's only natural to expect his wife to look like a Japanese Liv Tyler (my girlfriend's observation).

@myd12: Lol!!

Well, I'll avoid the banhammer by not commenting on a writer's wife. Instead, I'll comment on the naked girl bent over the arcade cabinet. To her I say, "You should be using both hands to play that game. Now go ahead and place your right hand on my joystick...er, I mean the joystick. Freudian slip."

Any approximations on how long before Bash posts on kotaku looking for a place to crash?

everyone: jealousy +10

Umm.. is this a ban-bait?

@tomsamson: *drinks potion of cure severe envy+2 D12*

No Hi res picture? I kid, I kid!

You, sir, are one very lucky dude!

Maybe Kotaku needs to start putting big ugly watermarks across their original photos.

I'd be really annoyed with the site which stole the photo if I was in Bash's position.

She's beautiful :D

You're a brave man to post a picture of your wife... the hoardes may go crazy.

I've come to the conclusion, in this thread, that any compliment given about a woman over the internet, no matter how pure the intentions, reads as being really, really creepy.

So I'm going to just go ahead and compliment the DS. It's a very nice DS.

Yeah, the selection of pictures is interesting and she is pretty. That is weird with her picture is lumped between some naked women. I'm sure they could easily find other pictures that seemed to keep the same theme.
Like sexy clothed women, or sexy naked women. That first picture just made me cold.

*shivers*

I hope 4chan does not get wind of this -_-

So uhh, off-topic - but did the giant DS actually work? That must've been a difficult stylus to maneuver!

@Foxy_Blue: 4chan and Something Awful forums, two reasons to never, ever, ever to put any picture of yourself on internet. Ever.

Bash, I gotta say it man.. I think you're absolutely crazy for posting pictures of your wife. Just crazy..

I'm moving.

Hee! Mr Bashcraft!.. "Internet" is not mature enough for that stuff to show. Your wife is nice. Congrats!. You are a lucky*** * . Hehehehee....
Mrs Bashcraft, please don't kill Mr Bashcraft for this. He is a cool guy, we all learn to love and admire.
