Taiwan's Next Media Animation TV – the news studio creating digital CGI reenactments of popular news stories – has focused in on Nintendo’s 2011 financial losses, created one of the most hilarious news video’s we’ve ever seen.

We already knew that Nintendo was suffering some financial losses, but in the following video, Mario gets crushed by giant Game Boy and sucks money away from a group of old people with giant vacuum, but the best part of the whole piece might be when Mario kicks a GameCube across the room while two kids were playing it. This is true art.

Nintendo will survive as always, and that video was a little scary. . .

I start thinking that this video was made with the help of Sims 3 0_0

That wasn't nearly as funny as I was led to believe.

To make the WII-U, you will need: - 1 x Mario look-a-like - 1 x Drill

Genius!

The wiener shots in Spartacus were less disturbing then that video.

weird video... true info but nintendo will undoubtedly bounce back. Not completely sold on the Wii U but I wasn't on the Wii either

Conan O'Brien shows some of these videos from Taiwan on his show every once in awhile, and man are they weird/hilarious/low quality!

I like how Iwata gets beaten up with a kinect.
by E-Dudnetnin Sunday, January 29, 2012 at 03:46 PM

That was very strange. The noises the kids in the video made though were hilarious.
