In this vaguely unsettling clip from G4, Attack of the Show host Kevin Pereira exorcises his desperate frustrations at being constantly mocked by the entirety of the gaming establishment by beating the everloving snot out of a defenseless DS Lite.
The segment is framed as a sarcastic attack on the large number of people who are having hinge-cracking issues. Thanks for the plug, G4, but I'm completely at a loss as to what Pereira's point is.
That the Lite is flimsy? I don't think so...he really used some force on that thing. That Lite owners are whiny? I'm not seeing it. The hinges are definitely cracking; this isn't just some made-up FUD. That he's so rich and macho he can destroy neat toys like that and laugh his cruel laugh? Could be...maybe his female co-host got so flustered by his silverback display that she showed him what the Touch Generation was all about. Maybe he just thought it would be funny. But I don't get it.
Did anyone see the rest of this episode? Can you shed any light on what the hell was going on here? It's okay...we won't tell anyone you watch G4. Thanks, Joe and Eric.
