Nintendo talks Wii Party Evites (Joystiq)

[R.O.B.]

Filed under: Culture, Nintendo Wii

Instead of going out to the local sin parlor and imbibing tumbler after tumbler of sin-juice with strangers of the opposite sex, invite your friends and family over to your small studio apartment to play video games! Sure, it's not for everyone, but we're big fans of Wii parties (why do you think Nyko made this frankenstein?).

To help in your efforts to infect the cooler, more socially sophisticated demographics, Nintendo has teamed up with the folks at Evite to promote Wii parties (and planning for them!). GameDaily briefly spoke with Nintendo's Perrin Kaplan who said, "We wanted to contribute to the trend by helping it to grow organically by working with Evite to suggest topics and designs." First on that list are: Mario Party, Family Reunion, and Wii Sports. Other potential party ideas: Minigame Overdose Party and Space Pirate Killing Party.

No one uses Evite anymore though! It's all Facebook, facebook, yada yada!

This really has to be the most ridiculous thing ever. I admire Nyko for making it in a way!

SWEET SUSAN I have to get me one of those...if only to have the pleasure of disposing of it.

I love how there's a neon light to help you find the crisps!
