Multi-format plans afoot, or just a bit of fun?

Just a bit of fun. They're part owned by Nintendo after all.

I have heard rumours of celluar games from them though. Probably bollocks.

Hehe, pretty clever wrapping though.

Okay, the orange package is the PS2, right? And the black with the green bow is obviously the X-Box. The small purple box is the Cube, right? Then the Game Boy Advance. What's the other small console? Is it Game Boy Color, or what?

 

[BrianB]

"mobile phone device" is what the other little package is.

And the name of the snowman holding the PS2 is "Mr.Pants" apparently.

 

[Morgan Jolley]

Mr. Pants, so we meet again...

Last time I saw him was in Jet Force Gemini.

 

[Dan Brecher]

But surely Mr Pants should be hugging that Gamecube, not the PS2.
Oh hey, my gaming friends, just want to wish a Merry Christmas to you all as I shant be posting from tomorrow onward until late next week. Have a good one, all!

Same to you Dan!

I think the idea behind the card was that Rare understands that each console has good things about it and that they think gaming, in general, is a good thing, no matter what console its on. So I think they were just saying "whatever you get, its good, even if its not ours, though ours is better."
