Nintendo has upheld its reputation as the family-friendly game company for many years. And like Disney, Nintendo also has some not-so-righteous NSFW elements in their content. Check out 5 examples of Nintendo innuendo; or what the Kartel likes to call, “Nintenduendo”.
"When Nintendo pulled back the curtain on its newest handheld rig, the 3DS, at E3 2010, the comparisons to the Virtual Boy were inevitable. After all, Nintendo had already taken a crack at 3D once before. Yet it would seem that in the last 15 years, the House That Mario Built did not let go of its dream of 3D without extra equipment. And as Nintendo gasses up the hype machine for the 3DS, it is taking precautions to not stumble into one of the Virtual Boy's epic failprints."
"Rosy-red tinted glasses won’t even save Nintendo’s Kid Icarus from suffering the effects of Grandfather Time. If Kid Icarus was an aged cheese, it would stink worse than both Limburger and Petite Muenster combined."
A great episode of The Bender awaits you. James will be buying a new system soon (he has had both a PS3 and Xbox 360, both have broke on him in the past). I ended up trying to show James the benefits of the Xbox 360, while Perry attempts to do the same for the PS3, and Allison swoops into talk about the Wii, but ends up saying pros/cons of the 360 and PS3. Plus we cover game news and the such. Enjoy!

"A portion of a Nintendo Power interview with Miyamoto...
NP: And, of course, I have to ask: have you given any thought to putting a new Kid Icarus game on Wii or DS?
Miyamoto: Wait, please. I'm really surprised how popular that is. But you are the first person to ask at this E3!
Well, telling us to wait is the easiest way to keep us quiet. That way, if/when a new Kid Icarus is announced, we can say that Miyamoto was right!"

"Sometime during September, a gallery took place that I admit I never heard of. The "Out of Controller" exhibition in Australia. Entries were designed to win prizes of cash and a chance to give a game idea to Nintendo Australia. The theme was basically the name of the exhibit, you can see all the lovely Nintendo characters outside the realm of their games."
"In the months leading up to the Electronic Entertainment Expo 2008, sources told IGN that a Wii remake of Kid Icarus was underway and destined to be unveiled at the event. Unfortunately, a day prior to the show, we learned that said project would not be on display after all. So when we met up with Nintendo mastermind Shigeru Miyamoto, we had Kid Icarus on the mind. Our first question was, simply, where is Kid Icarus for Wii?
Miyamoto smiled. "Yeah, I'm not the producer of any Kid Icarus t..."
In case you don't know what I mean by the title - No matter how classic and influential certain characters or games are, you will always find that one guy (especially on the internet) who has the gall to criticize Halo, Metal Gear Solid, and Grand Theft Auto. Some will even go as far as to insult Mario - and other classic characters. Overrated is their battle cry.

"Since its birth, video gaming has undergone an incredible evolution, from simple sprites and a ghost-eating Pac-Man to todays domination of home consoles. After all that time, any gamer whos worth their weight in rupees will remember (fondly, or otherwise) some once-common sights that went the way of the Virtual GameBoy, never to be seen or heard from again. CRACKED recalls some video-game staples of yesteryear, and admits that, in the end, there are still more of them kicking around than w..."
