Nintendo shocked the world when it announced at its press conference today that they were indeed "coming out." They also stated that they were poised to "penetrate the market [...] deeper." Having already taken a major foothold with female and geriatric consumers, Nintendo hopes to expand their player base to include the gay community. The earliest title that will be released to appeal to this new audience is WWE Smackdown! Vs. Raw 2008 (yes kids, wrestling IS gay). Sources close to the company confirm that Shigeru "Shiggy" Miyamoto will grace the cover of gay publication the Advocate later this month in celebration of their homosexuality.
