Just watched a little movie on xbox.com.
Basically its making fun of Nintendo and Mario Sunshine. Its called Notendo Lamecube. Basically you get Mario, Princess and Yoshi all jumping around collecting fruit with Kirby floating in the air. At the end you get this X-Box robot thing that scares them off and it ends with the statement "X-Box - Not for pansies".
Afterwards theres a couple of options. One says "View the movie again" the other says "Check out games that aren't for pansies".
I know this is probably gonna get a few Ninties in here having a go but it gave me a chuckle so I thought a few of you lot might wanna see it. Anyway, they have a laugh at anti Bill Gates stuff so who cares.
If you can't find the movie, theres a link to it at xboxrules.com. ;-)

Oh how I marvel at the extent of Microsoft's wit. Whoever said they had no imagination? Christ, it's like kids from other schools who stick their middle fingers up and think it's amazingly funny.
Nintendo will probably just take it as a bit of competitive banter, and laugh it off. The fact that Mario Sunshine's selling more than Halo will also be a big help.
:D

I think everyone would when it comes to mocking competition...
I wonder what the reaction in offices (for any company) is like when a company TAKES a dig. I think Nintendo will laugh this one off, not least when they compare the sales of Mario Sunshine compared to Xbox games... :-)

Should that not be MS HAVING a dig?
Anyway, pretty funny. MS have a sence of humour when it comes to making fun of the competition.
