All your friends and foes,
they thought they knew ya,
but look who's in your heart now.
Thank you, Nintendo. Sometimes, when you get your game on, it's hard to remember how late into the night you've been playing. Thankfully, Nintendo has always got your back and warns you to take a break, maybe walk for a bit if you've been sitting down for a while, and to keep your eyes from getting stressed from staring at the TV too long. Don't forget to stay hydrated, too!

Nintendo cares about you. So why don't you take a break, imps?

That's because Koreans have a habit of playing for 50 hours straight, standing up, and falling over dead when the blood clot hits their heart.

Pretty much every Nintendo game since the Wii involves an in game message or character telling you its time to go outside and stop playing video games

Its kind of hosed up if you think about it

I remember in the Wii U normal discussion thread someone mentioned how it's an optional feature that the gamepad occasionally lights up to display sales when the system is off and it launched into a long argument.

Just another reminder of the awful conditions the Kim family (Glory Be Unto Them) is sparing the people of north Korea from. When will the world stand up and take notice???
