South Park Wii

Based on evidence from the latest South Park episode, the writers are clearly big fans of Nintendo’s new console, the Nintendo Wii. During the episode Cartman is strongly considering cryogenically freezing himself for the 3 week build-up to the Nintendo Wii release to get away from his frustration of not being able to play it.

Such strong coverage in a world-renowned show is sure to bring Nintendo some extra customers. The only remaining question is whether it was some clever marketing by Nintendo, paying the show to feature it, or whether the writers really do love the Wii.
