Nintendo Makes You Stupid

Wherein The Gord reveals the truth behind Nintendo.

“I’d like to buy this game.”

“Very well then, that will be $45.60 with tax. Also, do you have a memory expansion for your Nintendo 64? Perfect dark requires it.”

“I do.”

“Are you sure? It’s one of these units that plugs into here.”

Gord proceeds to show the customer what he’s talking about as the customer doesn’t look so bright by holding a Nintendo 64 up and pointing to the memory expansion slot.

Customer leaves, returns with parent. Speech repeats with mother.

They leave content.

Next day, the customer returns.

“This game doesn’t fit my machine.”

Gord plugs it into his Nintendo 64.

“Seems to fit into mine. Does your machine work with other games?”

“Yes, see?”

<Dramatic Pause>

“Sir, that is a GameBoy Advance.”

“Perfect Dark didn’t fit!”

“Well, yes, I suppose it wouldn’t. So when I held up a Nintendo 64 and pointed out things on it, you didn’t say ‘that doesn’t look like my machine’ because…?”

Why would I sell mod chips? Hell, why not go all the way and start selling copies too so I can make extra money! Do they not think?!
