Games Come To the Colbert Nation

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the you-may-or-may-not-already-be-on-report dept.

Stephen Colbert's hit Comedy Central show "The Colbert Report" has already seen some game-related activities. You may recall the day he retired his dice because of Dungeons and Dragons Online's launch, or "Everything Bad is Good For You" author Steven Johnson's appearance on the show. Last week, though, with the release of the Wii, Colbert had to "get his Wii on", and demonstrated Wii Boxing vs. a virtual Nancy Pelosi. Next Monday will see veteran game designer Will Wright on the show.

    Judging by relative frequency, a gaming Slashvertisement costs the same as a gaming Colbertisement. We have a nice 1:1 correlation going so far. Or should that be "Wii?"
