Nintendo won't sue over that.

They'll just site back, look at sales figures, and chuckle to themselves. :-)

American generally are dumb-and like sueing.

A group of "obease" people in america sued Burger King etc because they claim they had no idea eating seveal whoppers a day would make them fat.

err..wheres the funny part of that?

The whole video comprises of a few Mario look a like characters jumping across the screen and then it ends, wheres the humour in that?

And the start? Please. 'Lamecube' and 'It's so lame it hurts'. I was expecting a witty, intelligent spoof of Mario games, instead it's just two immature 5 year old remarks, there was nothing clever there at all.

I guess that is Microsoft's response when Nintendo release a game that smashes anything on the X-box ;-)

Of course I was being stupid about the sue thingy. As well as the hammer to the Xbox thing :D

However, people in America sue THEMSELVES for falling off THEIR own ladder.. and that guy won!

Hmmmmmmmmm, funny how this legendary Ninty sense of humour disappears once the joke is on their console isn't it. ;-)

How would Nintendo sue Microsoft er-no ? I dunno about Japan, but in America, companies slating rival brands is pretty common in advertisements, etc. Unlike here, they don't have to use a blank bottle and call it something like "other competitor" in big letters.

I don't see what's wrong with taking the mick out of the Xbox!
