Comments on ‘Japan: Wii Mario Kart more popular than PSP erotica’Friday 18th April 2008 12:49 GMT "a wild stab in the dark"Ashley Pomeroy • Friday 18th April 2008 14:32 GMT
Surely "we're groping around in the dark" would have been a better pun; unless you're implying that The Register is staffed with the kind of people who go into a knife-wielding rage when confronted with breasts. Like in that film. MarioKart, best game everAnonymous Coward • Friday 18th April 2008 14:39 GMT
I played mariokart for the WII last night for the first time. I must say it is absolutely fantastic. There has not been a game that made me jump out of my chair and shout so loudly in years. All the kids were standing around looking at the two owl lads shouting at the TV like, well like little children. Fantastic game, getting it tomorrow for myself NSFW!Richard • Friday 18th April 2008 14:55 GMT
I know it says 'erotica' in the title, but I wasn't actually expecting Hentai splashed across my office screen. Some quick minimising and a bit add blocking of images and I could read the article in peace. A bit of notice would've been nice though. NSFW!!!John Macintyre • Friday 18th April 2008 15:15 GMT
Guys guys guys, I accept that the title clearly states PSP erotica, but under the assumption there's not images attached! NSFW label please! To be fair, in a country surrounded by vending machines that turn dirty after 10pm etc Wii Mario Kart is probably a welcome break from the available pron fest they have (do they race faster than other countries as they try to get to the pron quicker?) All we need now is Wii pron, it's not like the device isn't ready for such a thing with the various controllers... special case for the two remotes perhaps...

Funny that this game is allowed because strictly speaking it is a UMD Video. They allow adult Video content on a games console, but not adult Video Game content. shameAnonymous Coward • Friday 18th April 2008 15:32 GMT
same they never translate their decent ero and ecchi games... oh andAnonymous Coward • Friday 18th April 2008 15:46 GMT
It's almost certaintly a visual novel/dating sim of some sort where you make decisions at various points that move you down various story archs. Nowdays they also tend to have mini games in them. Some games are deep and interesting, others funny and exciting and more then a few dull repetative porn fests. andAnonymous Coward • Friday 18th April 2008 15:48 GMT
it isn't the first such title on the psp, I know they did Comic Party for the PSP and I'm pretty sure they did Clannad, there are probably more though. If memory serves the DS has a few ecchi titles too. Wii pr0nOli Wright • Friday 18th April 2008 16:38 GMT
I thought one of the widely touted reasons for not allowing homebrew on the Wii was that someone would instantly use the wiimote for a self-pleasure-simulator. Never quite understood why they would though ... because it's more acceptable when playing with your mates? Anyway, thirded the NSFW request! Keep finding that the NSFW isn't put into the headline when they first hit the RSS feed as well! hmmmmoogles1234 • Friday 18th April 2008 16:45 GMT
I wouldn't consider a girl in a swimsuit NSFW, its same thing you'd see during summer on the MSN page with ads. Might want to lookup "hentai" on google.. its very very different then whats in this article :P You call that NSFW?Mad Hacker • Friday 18th April 2008 17:39 GMT
I can't imagine why that wouldn't be safe for work. A drawing of a girl in a bikini? But then I didn't have a problem with the picture of Saddam Hussein after his execution that The Register chose to show as well. I also didn't understand why some people considered that NSFW. It was news. News is truthful, news can be ugly. I cannot imagine an employer having a problem with that. Re: MarioKart, best game everMatt Kemp • Friday 18th April 2008 18:00 GMT
I'd definitely say it's fun, and the Wii wheel attachment works fantastically well - the only thing I'd say is that it is the single most infuriating game I own for it. The increase to 12 racers and increased number of powerup boxes means that it's mentally hectic - you can drop from first to 12th in one easy jump. I guess that's part of Mario Kart though, and it's great in multiplayer for smacktalk - the only problem is you can't fit the wrist strap on easily, so in single player the temptation to throw that bastard across the room is so hard to resist.
