I skimmed over it, and came away with:
'It's too pink.'
Gimme a break, from what I see pink is IN.
Look at all the pink items in the stores - everything from cutlery to computers is available in pink, and someone must be buying those items, right?
The blonde buxom beauty who had a secret bikini in her first appearance and a painted on leotard in practically everything else? Not the best example JG.
wow... thats stupid... plus whats up with the laugh a 0:12?
Random 'let's be silly for the camera' nonsense , spliced together in quick cuts to give it that Rock video/ toy commercial feel that girls just love.
I suppose there's a real name for it but this style of video editing seems very popular.
No offense to anyone whose job it is to do such editing; I'm just trying to identify it somehow.

Well, the problem is, its an article from Yahoo.
I know what you mean, but their articles are some of the most interesting sometimes, despite the obvious Tabloid ish ness.
DB, I agree that N.G.C. may not have much redeeming value in terms of educational content and is for the most part a series of ads.

You say this as though I'm supposed to know the history of this person; this video is the first time I've ever seen her.
Painted on leotards? Secret Bikinis?
I want the link to the pictures you've been looking at!
But you must hand it to Nintendo; most Girl Gamers I've seen gravitate mostly toward the 'cuter' game titles, so if they could package them in a way that appeals to their target audience ..
but I find their choice of Actors ineffective, she looks more like she's selling makeup than video games.
One thing she said that I found interesting was that they may develop a new game based on N.G.C. user feedback.
Do you think this is true, or they've got a game already developed, waiting for release come what may?

I don't have a problem with Nintendo going full on pink. All I'm saying is it's not unexpected from them, their main character is an Italian stereotype and they thrive on diabeetus level cuteness.

It isn't so much that it's full on pink, more that it's .. it's .. so

And I have to say that after watching a few episodes of N.G.C., it is kind of crappy.
I wasn't expecting a grand show but
( Click to show/hide )
It's poorly narrated - not taking into account the blond girl's thick accent {South African?} making it difficult for me to understand , you can tell when the teleprompter hasn't advanced fast enough, ruining her performance.
Furthermore during the episode 'unboxing the 3DS', I got the impression the writer doesn't think girls are very smart.
Girls are capable of opening a damn box without detailed instructions believe it or not!
NOW I can see what that 'backlash' was about.
Poor move by Nintendo, in my opinion.
ON Stereotypes:
Yes there are a lot of them, aren't there?
But then how many truly original character ideas can there be - there have to be some marginally familiar characteristics to endear new game characters to the audience, right?

You like Alex Jones? Don't you know he's a puppet of the very people he rants about all the time? He's the best distraction they could have, no one will believe the NWO is real when people like this are spreading the message-
Not on a personal level; he seems too 'Alpha' at times, and used to get quite preachy.
I wish they would get someone more even - tempered and well - spoken for their broadcasts.
About the picture, can you tell me exactly what he was talking about at the time ?
Have you ever once watched his show?

Definitely one of the more crazy things you've said over the years, and I get the feeling you're trolling, especially when you follow up with:

If you think that face is scary then I should post some of those people on TV - the ones who threaten guests with physical violence, call for people to be 'taken away', etc. if their guests state views other than those being presented by the host of the show.
This one guy had some kid on whose dad was killed on 9/11, and all the kid said was he didn't believe the official story, whereupon the host said:
'Get out of my studio before I tear you apart!'
AS far as the existence of the N.W.O., I remember a TV broadcast by Ronald Reagan saying there is such a thing.
Furthermore I posted a collection of video quotes by world leaders talking about the N.W.O. some time back, which you obviously did not watch.

We're getting a bit off topic now. All I have to say is, can you prove Alex Jones isn't a puppet of the NWO agenda? No you can't. His complicity is equally as valid as the conspiracy theories he pushes to sell books and get ratings.
I LOL'd myself when I realized what thread this is.
Yessir, just a bit off - topic hee hee hee.
Ok, my final word on AJ is at least he gives you the links so you can see what he's talking about for yourself; it seems like most other news don't.
It's not a perfect news outlet but what they say makes more sense than the 'guy with a boxcutter' nonsensical stories presented by others.
