Nicole Kidman the new face of Nintendo ... Wait, what? photo

Yes, you heard me right. Nicole's not satisfied with the film biz alone; apparently the 40-year old actress has quite a weakness for the make-you-smarter DS titles. Perhaps she namedropped at the right time, for now it seems she has been chosen to front the Nintendo advertising campaign for its "brain training" titles. While this news doesn't quite hold up to the sizzle of the Salt N Pepa reunion, it certainly made me perk and take notice.

Personally I'm ambivalent to Nicole, but I'm wondering what demographic Nintendo thought they would appeal to by including the actress in their campaign. If this is to set a trend, I have several votes for famous people I would like to see representing game product. Michael Jackson is an obvious choice, as he has such appeal with kids. Place any game on Scarlett Johnansson's naked breasts and I'm likely to buy it. Also, I'd be willing to pay to see Paris Hilton playing Nintendogs on her pink DS in jail.

Well she's either playing Brain Age or Hotel Dusk...

DeusPayne at 06/24/2007 20:33

Pfft. Fuck those games, she's playing Planet Puzzle League.

Jim Sterling at 06/24/2007 20:37

I'd like to have sex with her, but I wouldn't be able to scrub the Cruise out of her cunt.

Oni at 06/24/2007 20:43

Permanent sloppy seconds

iliketuna at 06/24/2007 20:49

i want to show her my arbok

RJG at 06/24/2007 20:55

Anything that has been naked with Tom Cruise should be viewed with extreme caution.

Then again, she is a redhead.

And an Aussie.

And she DOES like Nintendo...

...so conflicted... ;_;

Aaron Linde at 06/24/2007 20:55

agh is today huge image day or something!???

Nicole Kidman will haunt my nightmares :(

Colette Bennett at 06/24/2007 20:56

Totally Lickable Cunt.

Sharpless at 06/24/2007 21:01

I invite her to haunt mine.

Oni at 06/24/2007 21:12

@Wiisucks: Only if you don't resize them. Make sure you post them as huge as you can. It will make people like you more. Honest.

Colette Bennett at 06/24/2007 21:13

Of course I mean your picture WiiSucks! And for the record, I don't hate anybody.

Artadius at 06/24/2007 21:23

What the fuck is going on in this comment section??

Azereki at 06/24/2007 21:31

Shouldn't that blatant display of trolling warrant a ban or something? Since when did Destructoid turn into a community that welcomes individuals with extreme cases of mental retardation? >.<

Sharpless at 06/24/2007 21:40

There needs to be a series of features on types of trolls. I believe WiiSucks falls under the Masochistic Attention Whore category. One of the most tiresome, and one of the most tricky, because you just want to beat the shit out of them - but that's exactly what they seem to want you to do. It's a dilemma.

BluDesign at 06/24/2007 22:00

I'm one to post pictures in my post, but I do so inregard to people at work who can't have bewbs onscreen, or those who don't like scrolling to see a whole picture.

But I don't think posting a picture contradictory to someone's post suggestion is reason for ban. Lord knows I've accidentally posted a 2 page long picture on here before (total accident!) and I didn't see a ban, nor did I have to explain myself for it to the higher ups.

I would say that these things are tolerable provided we don't start getting hammered with Hunter99 posts about getting WOW gold. Hunter99 is a douchbag.

MaxVest at 06/24/2007 22:00

For the sake of research and the progress of humankind, I did a Google Images search on "Scarlett Johansson's naked breasts" to see what popped up (?). I'd buy ten of whatever she's selling. 'Tis the power of Two.

BluDesign at 06/24/2007 22:01

Oh, and Nicole is sniffin' her finger 'cause it was just in my anus.

Mmm, minty fresh.

Jordan Grim Devore at 06/24/2007 22:04

When I heard about this, I said to my self (out loud), "Fuck huurr."

Mxyzptlk at 06/24/2007 22:13

If they want someone to promote Brain Age, why not Mensa member and not-quite-as-hot-as-Nicole-Kidman-but-still-hot Geena Davis?

Detry at 06/24/2007 23:05

Because that would make too much sense Mixie.

Trevor McGee at 06/24/2007 23:16

That picture makes me think that she's figured out another use for the Wiimote...

Sharpless at 06/24/2007 23:17

Wait, Grim, why is this a bad thing? I mean, it's not a good thing, but I wouldn't say it's bad. Unless you meant you'd like to fuck her, in which case I concur.

Jordan Grim Devore at 06/24/2007 23:28

Well first off, I hate Brain Age with a burning passion. Secondly, who wouldn't like to fuck her?

Oni at 06/24/2007 23:41

Wiisucks: Get sepsis.

Shipley at 06/24/2007 23:48

Nicole Kidman is still totally on my list, even after years of Cruise. Even though he's gay.

Detry at 06/25/2007 00:03

WiiSucks: I'm glad your internet cherry is getting popped at D'toid.

That is not cruel.

You have no idea how cruel we *can* be.

I believe you are just green, a total newbie.

Grow some labia, call back, we'll be here. And no more stupid, Come back with stupid and you will meet the hammer.

If your not new to the internet: The help you need is very expensive and you should probably just kill yourself.

Thank You.

-------------

Nicole is totally ghey.

Sharpless at 06/25/2007 01:06

Grim: Tom Cruise, apparently. And yeah, I don't know shit about Brain Age. I'd try it, though.

nectarine at 06/25/2007 02:28

I reckon they're going after the non-gamer 30-40+ something australian. She's uber popular in Australia amongst people who read tabloid magazines, such as Women's Day, eeuck!

uptonogood at 06/25/2007 03:22

wiisucks is off to get surgery. let's hope it's gastric bypass.

/the internet is a cruel place

BahamutZero at 06/25/2007 09:50

wiisucks needs a swift kicks in the ass with the banstick

free touch at 06/25/2007 11:42

I'd hit it. Twice.

duhJeenyus at 06/25/2007 12:19

I think if Scarlett Johansson had a B-Cup, she would be an average looking beeyawch. However, if Natalie Portman had D-Cups, she would be the hottest bitch ever. What is it about big boobs that raises the...mmm, big boobs.

StrawberryFFuck at 06/25/2007 14:54

I don't undersand why there is so much hate against Tom Cruise,
the guy is pretty cool.

And if when you see a sexy picture of Nicole Kidman, and the first thing you think about is Tom Cruise in her vagina you are obviously very gay.

I would have sex with her in a second without thinking about it.

Ninjajuice66 at 06/25/2007 18:14

Ironically, "Yeah, I'd hit it" just happens to be a catchphrase of mine.
