After its largely successful lampooning of World of Warcraft, South Park has wandered back into videogame territory. In the episode aired last night on America's Comedy Central, Cartman is shown pacing up and down outside his local videogame store waiting for the launch of Nintendo's Wii. When his mother arrives and asks when the console will be available he replies 'three weeks' and continues pacing. 'It's like Christmas times a thousand' he later agonises.
Now that Nintendo has secured the infantile satire vote, surely there's no stopping Wii?
