Nintendo Sign Luring You into the Internet Cafe You see the big sign and you go in, but once you're in...	By Filip Truta, Games Editor 2nd of March 2007, 13:51 GMT Adjust text size:


In Japan, there's an Internet cafe enjoying popularity just because there's a sign hanging in front of it, on which the words "Nintendo Wii and DS Lite" are written. A first glimpse will surely make you go in hoping there will be free games to play on Nintendo platforms or cheaper units of DS Lites or whatever, plus some good coffee too. But if you do decide to enter, you'll surely see the smaller post-it sign, that says: "the Wiis have been sold out" according to Kotaku. OK, given that the small post-it sign doesn't take the edge off your little adventure, you'd normally still try to make something out of your visit to the Internet cafe, right? Right. Oh, the sign also said there will be a playable Final Fantasy XII for he who enters. Now, moving forward you'll be able to see a bar, a stair case and... OK, I'm going to use the exact words in the article posted on Kotaku because they are just too damned funny: "At the very front of the shop" there was "a card table with bad photocopies of game covers indicating what titles they had in stock to sell. Popular titles have 'sold out' stickers on them," all this while this creepy waitress stares at you like crazy. Does this sound like a bad movie where the character ends up in a deserted town, nobody's around, yet he feels like he's being watched, or what? More than that, "bad photocopies of game covers indicating what titles they had in stock to sell" make it even creepier: they were there some time ago... but now they're gone� why...? �that sort of thing. Again, courtesy to Kotaku for this.
