IDENTIFIED PROBLEM: Web site uses a Nintendo trademark (Mario,Luigi) in the code of the page.


Dear Private, Registration,


We are an Internet monitoring agency representing Nintendo of America Inc. ("Nintendo"). We are writing to ask you to stop using the Nintendo
properties in the hidden text/visible text/meta tags and/or title and/or links of the above-referenced sexually explicit Web site. Nintendo's
customers include many children and their parents. Unauthorized use of Nintendo trademark(s)/work(s) is harmful to those customers and will
tarnish Nintendo's reputation.


We look forward to your immediate confirmation that you have taken the necessary steps to resolve this matter. To that end, you may email us at

Nintendo getting pissy or a fake email ?

I dont think Nintendo CAN get pissy. I say its a fake...but I suppose you never know. After over 20 years of not being jerks, I doubt they'd change that quick and over something that little.

Fake, if that was real then almost all known Nintendo related sites would be closed.

Look at how bloody it is. Now look back at Nintendo's "kiddy game" reputation. I most certainly want THAT out of the internet... Where children could access it... and non-gaming parents would see it and automatically suspect Nintendo of the overused "THEY'RE POISONING MY KID'S MIND" thing.

If Robot Chicken releases this episode on DVD, buy it and rewatch it there...

And before someone tells me anything:

Internet material is readily accessible to EVERYONE.
Tv and DVDs, while available to everyone, may not, in fact, attract everyone as highly as a singled out segment on the Internet.

Oh and... Why does the letter make it seem like the site in question is pornography? O.o o.O

Nintendo or Fake, it does not matter. Nintendo images are all over the internet. Further, nintendo does not own any legal rights to that Robot chicken episode. The website should just ignore them.

A dog barking from behind a fence is nothing more than a small annoyance.
