Nintendo Boasts Excellent Wii Games
KYOTO, Japan – Nintendo has announced that they expect to sell 18.5 million Wii consoles by March 2008 on top of the more than 20 million they had sold by December 31, 2007. This came on the heels of a record profit for the company during the nine months preceding that date.
“Lesser companies would settle for complacency during these prosperous times. But we know that the sole reason for our recent success has been the high-quality games that top-tier developers have made for our console,” Nintendo President and CEO Satoru Iwata said at a press conference.
“After making the console purchase, Wii owners depend on a consistent flow of these great games, like Ninjabread Man and History Channel: The Battle for the Pacific,” he continued. “I bet a lot of young Wii fans were bursting with gratitude when they found December-release games like Game Party, The Golden Compass, Billy the Wizard: Rocket Broomstick Racing, and Rock ‘N’ Roll Adventures under their Christmas trees.”
“Getting great games to our Wii owners is how we establish and keep brand loyalty,” Iwata remarked. He said that maintaining their high standard of quality is almost a form of viral advertising. “For instance, when someone purchases Jenga: World Tour, Counter Force, Godzilla: Unleashed, Dancing with the Stars, or Monster Trux Arenas, he’s going to be telling all of his friends about it. That’s the kind of word-of-mouth transmission we depend on,” he said.
“We’ll continue to churn out these awesome games as quickly as possible. Oh, we’ve delayed the new Smash Bros.,” Iwata concluded. “Thank you,” he said to scattered applause.

If you chop something and would like it featured on the front page, include (in your thread-starting post) a hyperlink to an icon’d version of your file that’s scaled like this image: icon
Then let me know by PM or MT2 chat that you’d like it featured.
In order to ‘chop something, simply get Photoshop or Gimp and download the Chop PSD found in the Pragmatic Links Zone at the top. Inside you’ll find a layered Photoshop file that lets you make cards, and fonts to install so that you have the right fonts (you might have to change the card text font to MPlantin rather than Plantin).
Also, do you see the goodgamery.com watermark at the bottom of the card above? Stick that in there, too. That way if people directly link to your hilarious card, others will know where to go.

Clinton Kicks Off MT2 Super Tuesday, Disintegrates
SAN FRANSISCO, Cal. – Hillary Clinton kicked off MiseTings2 Super Tuesday in a live press conference today. "All of the humor contest entries had been received and processed," she said. She announced and that the polls were now open for MT2 members to elect their favorite pieces of humorous content submitted throughout January.
As she spoke, her eyes began to well up with tears. "Sometimes it's a battle, you know, this whole contest thing," she said, her voice wavering. "Waking up every day, knowing that, without any breaks, you have to bear the responsibilities of dealing with the stresses of the MT2 contest."
Her next sentence was cut short when she started to lose her voice. "Excuse me," she said. "My _____ has _____ coming _____ going." Then she began to cough repeatedly. She started to cry as she coughed. Fluids began to pour from every facial orifice as the coughing became increasingly violent. She fell off of her chair and onto the ground. Her coughing became more infrequent as her body spasmed. Reporters backed away as a liquid pool expanded around her. When the press conference ended, what had once been Hillary Clinton was now just clothing and water upon the ground.

Hillary Clinton’s Comeback Contest
MANCHESTER, N.H. — Reeling after a third place finish in the Iowa caucuses this week, the Hillary Clinton team is seeking to retool and rework their campaign strategy to compensate for a new state and a new demographic. Acknowledging that over 72% of New Hampshirese are fans of the card game Magic: The Gathering, she is running a “new humor article or other content” contest, asking for submissions and rewarding the most original and humorous of them.
“My opponent always talks about ‘hope, hope, hope.’ I say that he is a ‘dope, dope, dope,’” Clinton said to a New Hampshire crowd on Saturday, receiving a chorus of “boos” in response. “I don’t think he understands New Hampshirites like I do, and that’s why I’m running this ‘Mystic cards’ contest,” she continued.
Clinton is running the contest in a joint partnership with new Magic forum MiseTings2. MiseTings2 will display the submissions and reward the three best of them with three booster packs of Lorwyn each. The MiseTings2 administrator, who could not reveal his name or gender for security purposes, notes that this will set him back about $30, bringing his total site investment to $40. He added, however, that if there are more than 10 total submissions from different authors, he’ll up the prizes to 5 packs each.
He also happened to mention that the due date for the contest is February 5th, long after the relevant primaries, and that authors should free to post entries directly in the “Magic Cards Humor and Other Gaming Humor” subsection. He also said that non-Magic humor, as long as it’s gaming-related, is acceptable, and that his partnership with the Clinton campaign does not necessarily imply support.
