    Bloody lord, 30 seconds of buffering (when moving the slider) just to play a 19 second clip?

    And of course that Mario mention is just a fancy one-liner, and not really anything else.

    Haha. Good stuff. I love little nods like this.

    On a side note, isn't it ridiculous we have to watch a 30 second commercial before watching a 19 second video? #assassinscreedii

    It completely bypasses lil ads such as those at the beginning of videos and on most webpages. #assassinscreedii

    I literally just got to that about 20 minutes ago, shortly before calling it a night on the game. Cracked me up something fierce. All the "[word x]-a's" have been giving me the giggles anyhow, but that was really choice.

    And yes, I'm really hoping that this Mario teams up with a Luigi at some point in the game.

    Breaking the fourth wall would entail Mario looking directly into the camera and addressing the audience directly, rather than this. I'm kind of disappointed that this is all over the web, though- I got a good laugh out of it when I saw it in-game. #assassinscreedii

    Spoiler Alert:

    He is later betrayed by his oft forgotten brother. The conniving Duke Luigi betrays his older brother and the Mario family name when he aligns his resources with the dreaded Baron Wario von Wario.

    Er... not sure if this has been pointed out, but it's not "Nintendo's World Store" or just "World Store"... it's Nintendo World. I thought the headline looked odd, and had no idea what it even meant at first. It makes no sense without the "Nintendo" in front of it. It's kind of like calling Mario Galaxy "Galaxy Game" or "Mario's Galaxy Game".

    You *can* call it "Nintendo World store", but the "store" is not part of the name - the name of the place is really just Nintendo World. #newsupermariobroswii

    This game WILL sell more copies than a single console version of MW2 (for arguments sake, let's say the 360 version) by next spring.

    There...I said it. #newsupermariobroswii

    @Knoxximus ver. 5.66: It'll definately sell more than the ps3 version. Even if every ps3 owner in the world bought a copy of MW2 - Mario would only need to sell something like 10 copies... :-D #newsupermariobroswii

    @Knoxximus ver. 5.66:
    That much is obvious.

    The Wii has double the hardware sales of either the 360 or PS3. Keeping in mind that this is a first party Nintendo title - if not the consoles flagship franchise - then the smart money has always been with Nintendo keeping true to their promise. #newsupermariobroswii

    @Knoxximus ver. 5.66: That I have no doubt. Nintendo titles continue selling for a long time while even the biggest of other titles tend to drop off a fair bit after the first month or 2. Hell I honestly wouldn't even be suprised if someday, lifetime sales were more than MW2 on all platforms combined. Reggie's challenge however was to beat 1 platform by the end of the January sales period. That could be a little trickier. I wouldn't be suprised if that one went either way though to be honest. #newsupermariobroswii
