Look, there he is. That is what you're subjecting gaming to. We can literally hear Gunpei Yoki turning in his grave as his beloved GameBoy gets ready to play host to what can only be one of the most detestable creations ever: the Crazy Frog.
dtp, one of Germany's oldest and wisest publishers was given the rights today, allowing them to publish a range of Crazy Frog themed games on handheld systems, including the GBA.
"The Crazy Frog is one of the most popular licenses of today's entertainment market. It is an exciting project to apply all our developing and publishing experience", says dtp's CEO Thomas Baur.
It will be released during the 'Christmas period' and if it dares to get the Christmas No.1 we will seriously consider our love of gaming. Industry suicide is imminent, the Frog spares.
Oh no....

It was indeed on The Simpsons... dunno if it was a real game also though. Crazy Frog is a disease to our minds, as if little kids aren't annoying enough :'(
The Bible game... it's pure EVIL. Just like Paperboy 2, then.
*shudders*
EDIT: Ahahaha, on that link. "Also consider: GTA Advance".

*nods*
There was a Bible game?
> Sometimes I don't understand you people.
No, *we* (collectively) don't understand *you*.
>Nobody is forcing you to buy the crazy frog game.
Well, duh, but it's a matter of principles. A Crazy fsking Frog game. You don't see anything wrong with that?
>it won't actually be doing anybody any harm.
It makes me want to hurt myself, does that count?

Seriously, though, this is a new low in video games. Yes, it's up there with "Mario teacher your kids to read", the Robot add-on for the NES, and The Bible game.
Kill me now.
