What’s it like to get a Nintendo Wii for Christmas?

***PLEASE don’t show this video to my children.***

Nick Smith of pwnordie.com had the inspiration to hunt through youtube to visit the living rooms of 50 gleeful/tearful/wild/choked-up children to see each of them ripping open a new Nintendo Wii. “Oh My Gosh!”

Watching this video provoked a host of emotions, but I won’t comment further.  I’ll let Nick’s video speak for itself.

    Projektleiterin: You are absolutely wrong. This is not a commercial. These are excerpts from publicly posted YouTubes that were stitched together by Nick Smith, a friend of mine who designed this blog (you can see his name at the bottom of every screen). He posted it at his new site, pwnordie.com. This is not a commercial, though I admit that it could function as one. For me, it is a field study.

    A field study for what? Whether his intention was to create a commercial for Nintendo or not, it has the touch and feel of a commercial and if he offered it to Nintendo they probably would like to use it as a commercial.
