            What Nintendidn’t [yet], because that DS ad is a lot more recent and I don’t remember Nintendo itself having anything quite that risque in the '90s.

              This reply is offensive. We both went to all that work and you didn’t even have the decency to say “What Nintendidn’tyetbecausethatDSadisalotmorerecentandidon’trememberNintendoutselfhavinganythingquitethatrisqueinthe’90s.”

        The French magazine ads for tech in the 1990s were absolutely wild

        There’s no way that’s a real Nintendo ad.

            I think your response is deadpan, but just to be clear, there’s no way that’s real. I can be convinced by someone creating a properly faked Photoshop of it in a real magazine, however.
