As an editor for Destructoid, a fair bit of swag comes my way. Okay, not very much swag at all -- a t-shirt there, a mousepad here, a Phantom Hourglass made of tin and a Bomberman duffel bag I had to claim from fierce competitors in a Bomberman Live tournament at Hudson's offices. We've also been doing more reviews and as such have been receiving more games. A package arrived today that I really, really hoped was Flash Focus, but as it turned out--

Crisps. Fuckin' crisps! Nintendo-branded and Wii-contest-sportin' crisps, but crisps nonetheless. They came in a big-ass box with lots of padding, 'cos, y'know -- don't want to damage them crisps.

Until January 25 or so they're going to be branding Pringles with Nintendo trivia and characters and shit, printed directly onto the pringle. There's also some kind of contest going on where you can find codes printed on the crisps and enter them in on the Pringles website or somesuch to win a Wii and, presumably, more crisps.

So, to recap: Nick Chester, svelte and suave editor-in-chief of Destructoid gets unbelievably fuckin' hip Beretta replicas from Midway; Aaron Linde, rotund yet lovable and cuddly reviews editor of Destructoid gets a can of pringles. Sounds like someone's trying to send me a message.



Nintendoooooooooooooooooooooo!
