New study shows: video game industry found to be the cause of violence, and massive movement of women standing up to urinate in bathrooms. posted by |n$eCur3 at 9:31 AM on April 10
I wonder if, at the upper levels, you have to contend with things like enlarged prostates. And do you lose points if you don't shake? Or if you shake too much?
Damn it, why does this have to be fake! I need answers to these eternal questions! posted by quin at 9:31 AM on April 10

Blazecock, I am so there. I'm calling my team; we're getting started on Sodomii right now. You'll get a cut. posted by boo_radley at 9:34 AM on April 10 [2 favorites]
This is a good way for Nintendo to break that 'Kidtendo' label, by targeting repeat play for older casual gamers. So this should be pretty popular - as you get older, you find yourself playing this game more and more in the middle of the night. posted by robocop is bleeding at 9:38 AM on April 10 [1 favorite]
So when we were visiting Tokyo recently and saw lines of Japanese schoolgirls waiting to play an amazing new game for the Wii called Super Pii Pii Brothers we were only a little surprised.
So, let me get this straight ... this wii remote, it vibrates?? posted by Dave Faris at 9:40 AM on April 10
it was quite unusual to see the "strap-on" style accessory
Ohhh, wiii, one can imagine what's cumming next! posted by ericb at 9:41 AM on April 10
It looked pretty impossible to switch between toilets with a relentless pee stream. Maybe they could use the trigger button as a 'squeeze it off' feature... but hold it in too long, and bad things happen. posted by anthill at 10:04 AM on April 10
I'm looking forward to combining this with Boong-Ga Boong-Ga. I'll call it The Legend of Super Boong-Ga Pii-pii. posted by ROU_Xenophobe at 11:06 AM on April 10
I wonder if Fred Savage is available to sign on to the movie promoting this game, The Whizard? posted by robocop is bleeding at 11:13 AM on April 10
I am literally Laughing Out Loud at this amusing April Fools Day stunt the Internet cooked up a mere ten days ago. What will they think of next? Perhaps something involving an unlikely merger between two rival technology corporations? Hah, that shall be the day, indeed! Or perhaps an amusing Four-Oh-Four message! Or perhaps something involving Google announcing something outrageously inventive! Oh, how the tears of laughter shall stream from our childrens' faces as we smile upon them with all of the creative power of the world harnessed on that one magnificent day. posted by cmonkey at 11:32 AM on April 10 [1 favorite]

What's really funny is that this would be a million seller if Nintendo would allow someone to make it. Brilliant. posted by BigBrooklyn at 12:34 PM on April 10 [1 favorite]
Isn't this just a ripoff of that add-on module "Campfire Extinguisher" for the game Outside? posted by inigo2 at 1:13 PM on April 10 [1 favorite]

Once you get to level 13 or so, you start getting "split streams". I can't believe how accurately they've modeled how you control of the dynamics of a "double". Very realistic. Very difficult. posted by Anything at 1:47 PM on April 10
how you control of the dynamics

The saddest thing of all was that I knew this was an April Fool's thing (and didn't find it particularly funny or clever) because I knew the Japanese word for "pee" sounds nothing like what you'd think ("shikko"). posted by DoctorFedora at 2:19 PM on April 10
Great story, though I can't help but think: if the woman in the video spent some of that time, energy, focus, and talent learning to play an actual penis, she'd have developed skills that are also modes of expression and communication, and much less finitely fun than one game. But maybe that's just the old fogey in me. posted by horsewithnoname at 2:23 PM on April 10
Ha—so when you get shikker, you have to go shikko?
I'm sure there's also some really tasteless wordplay I could tack on here about JAPs and Japs ... I leave it to you, friends. posted by limeonaire at 4:47 PM on April 10
