Nintendo Totally Flattered By Microsoft’s Avatars

Nintendo – under the impression they created the very idea of representing an online persona with a cartoon avatar – are flattered that Microsoft chose to use the things for their upcoming Xbox Live revamp. How flattered? They even throw in the dreaded “c” word, with Reggie telling the Spanish-language Club Nintendo that “copying is a way flattering, so we’re very flattered”. You know what else is flattering? Reggie’s new do. Seems…thicker than it used to, no?

Reggie says no hard drive…but a better solution, while Miyamoto says enough with the peripherals [Go Nintendo]
