It was announced today that Nintendo and Nickleback have signed a 4 year contract for soundtracks to various games. All well, you may think, but whats the big shock? Well the Nintendo/Nickle contract started LAST YEAR with the first game on the agenda being SUPER MARIO SUNSHINE!

Nickleback were set to record songs such as 'How You Remind Me (Of Mario 64)' and 'Fat Italian Hero' but the small print in their contract stopped such things. After a lengthy, undercover court case, Nintendo came out the victers which means that Nickleback have now got a hefty $5 million burning a hole in their pockets.

Although They were not allowed to RECRD for Nintendo during the production of SMS, Nintendo put in some advertising for the bands latest sing 'Too Bad'. Whenever Mario dies, the new singles name flashes up at the bottom. the music on the game is said to have subliminal advertising too, although this is unconfirmed at the present moment.

Nickleback will be recording a whole album for Ninty to use called 'Silver side Of The Disk Down', and will be coming out on these shores before christmas.

Well I think it's safe to say we've well and truly torn apart Tribute's post and confidence :D.

It was good, but could have been better :D.

OK it took me a bit but then it sounded to far fetched.

Good idea...just not done well...a bit like EA making james bond games.

By that I suppose you mean me? I didn't take it seriously for one minute, I just think it could have had a lot more thought put in. I like my jokes to make sense, and also to be funny.
