    Nintendo Sends ‘Thank You’ Postcard

    Posted August 11th @ 8:48 pm by jsharp


    I just received a really nice ‘Thank You’ post card from Nintendo for attending their E3 Media Briefing this year.  The thought was really nice Nintendo, but I really wish it was a letter containing all the things you forgot in your E3 media briefing such as: New handheld, Zelda Wii Trailer, Monster Hunter 3 videos, Mario Galaxy 2, Pikmin 3, etc, etc… *sigh*..the thank you will have to do…for now.
