Looks like the caption says "in the dark" to me.

Just because you can't get a woman, it doesn't mean everyone else who plays videogames can't.

So does that make DSlite the best thing to do in the dark?

Ppl like you give gamers a bad name. I almost never blog, but i do enjoy reading them, and reading your post compelled me to respond. I would honestly like to see some sorta poll by Jostiq regarding gamers and girls.

Funny... seems to me the Nintendo fanboys would be the most likely to get laid with all of the family/child/girl friendly games...

Like being a Nintendo fan has anything to do that? A gamer is a gamer, fanboy.

It's a good thing Sony didn't run with this ad, cause then the ad would go from quirky to ZOMG HORRID!

You don't know many gamers, do you...

Silver --

Maybe the post originally said "after dark" in YOUR dimension, but in MY dimension, it now says "in the dark." (Translation: thanks for pointing out the typo, I fixed it :D)

I do, and the majority of them have g/fs. How is that possible you ask? Because they aren't your stereotypical geeky/fat/pimply faced/nerd/etc gamer.

You play videogames? Welcome to Dorkville!

If one looks a bit on the internet, one can find someone who can provide irrefutable scientific evidence of anything.

I know a lot of golfers, and they all drive Hondas!

You see, I'm making that up.

My experience states that barely 10% of gamers have the requisite social skills to attract a girlfriend (note this has absolutely nothing to do with weight/complection/etc. Those are entirely different issues that can't be effected by one's hobby)

This may conflict with your experience, but I feel if we extrapolated this a larger sample, say, of all the people who read jstiq, the actual number will be closer to mine than yours.

I have had a moment just like this, probably one of the happier moments in my life. My gf loves Yoshi's Island. But unlike the picture, neither of us are models.

Here's the deal: somebody has to sex up all the hot nerd chicks. That's where Nintendo fans come in. ZAM.

Leaving comments on someone else's blog is not blogging, it's commenting. Blogging is when *you* write the posts and other people complain about them.

I'm betting neither of those models plays video games, speaks english or eats anything but tofu and sprouts. Finding a chick into games that looks like this is about as tough as finding a doable chick in a comic book store. There's a whole new level of dork right there.

My woman likes Platform and Racing games but she isn't good enough to play games like FPS's or TPS's. The controls are to difficult for her.

She was watching me play Resistance last night (Im on Chapter: The Last Hope, when you have to shoot the rods while that damn Angel shoots at you). She really wants to be able to play games like that its just that the controls are to damn hard. She kicks ass at Sonic though.

Keep that stereotype alive, boys. Shouldn't you be in school?

Who does it in the dark?!?! I want to SEE who I'm shagging; That's half the joy of it!

If you turn out the lights to have sex, you should stop having sex. Now.

If I had someone lying next to me looking that hot, I really think I would have put the GBA down and been going for at least seconds.

i'm not sure i get the premise of the add, i mean i get that their refering to sex but where's the fun of sex if you're doing it in the dark and you can't see anything?

You use the backlit screen to show you the way. And you play Sextris.
