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.

Wasn't Jessica Alba just saying the other day how she loved playing her DS on her movie sets? What is it with the DS and hot actresses?

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

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... ;_;

@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.

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? >.<

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.

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.

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.

Mmm, minty fresh.

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?

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.

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

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

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.

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!

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.

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.

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