ridiculous…… one should know the difference bet being hooked… & being obsessed.. geeez….
oh japan
at least he wont have any kids. thank God
And what happens when this technology get outdated in two years..? Divorce and a rebound with the new Nintendo FX?
but imagine f they did…
nintendo kids? i dont know…
He wants to marry the fictional character…
But what Makes him think the fictional character wants him???
I mean…. He must have failed so hard in real life that he turns to someone that is unreal….
bottomline :
1.He is a useless and ugly 4 eye fat ass..
2. He got rejected in real life..
3. The videogame character would most probably reject him as well…
I cant believe that this event is RECENT! If anyone comes by here and knows about HellfireComms, notice that this vid has more views than any other video of theirs, and they’ve been funtioning since 2008!
Anyone who’s looking for a good laugh, go there.
I wonder what’ll happen if his game cartridge broke…
fail
@holypredator
You don’t understand that his wife is a product of a delusion. In a delusion, you can most certainly think that the character likes you, because in truth, the creators have to make the character like you. 2D is a thing that can be changed according to whoever is thinking about it. In short, guy has delusion, it makes him happy, japan agrees with it, go complain somewhere else.
-Also, bottomline:
:Real life has gotten so savage that maybe the guy doesn’t want to be a part of it
the fuck?
turkey slap my second screen
hell, i would marry an anime person. xD just not for real…
What would happen if the game failed to save?
kudos
Tis right, this post is.
It would be funny if Nene broke up with his game character.
/rage quit
how are they going to do it?
WTF r u talking about….
He cant even OWN that character…. its copyrighted to the creator…..
What if the creator somehow made an anime episode with the girl married …
then what?? That Nerd gonna suicide??
I remember few years ago a Jap guy wanted to marry a girl from Haruhi anime…
I seriously LOLED…
wow….. I really didn’t think anyone would actually do this.
how they having baby then? =.=
Lol,he’s virtually a bigshot player,that’s sad,really sad…At least people even bothered to attend his wedding,but that makes him a person that is not a loner!
I wonder when is he gonna snap out of it…
Rofl what if it lags as well?
Or virus? o_O
そりゃあ、海外の人にはwtfだよなw
また日本が誤解されていく
