Is this comic about the simplicity of certain (non-)games by Nintendo, how easy it is to win in Nintendo games these days, both, or neither?

These comics are getting so obscure. xD We’ll need a Castle-Vidicons wiki to explain them all soon enough.

DS be all playing herself in the bathtub tonight, depriving Wii of that touch screen, and definitely not letting him flip that touch screen down with her sexy side buttons, actually only letting him get that freaky on his B-day.

Shouldn’t Wii be glowing in the “Well congratulations” frame, and not the “cold bedchamber frame”, since he seems to do that primarily when he’s about to do something sinister? Or is there some subtext here I’m not seeing?

I’m not quite sure, but I know Flower was a game for PS3 at E3 this year. Or at least something close to it, I’m not sure why he’s with the Nintendo Royalty.

King Wii is glowing with a sort of sinister pride, he is most amused by his actions.

and it’s not like he isn’t used to a cold bedchamber… when was the last time there was any interconnectivity between them? some pokemon stadium? feh.

I think King Wii glows to express emotion.

I believe that lord Wii dumped something foul on the flower vidcon and the implication is that it went to the PS3 after.

He’s ‘auditioning’ them to find the worst idea so he can destroy/make fun of it. DS thought it was a real audition.

The PSN Flower game concept sounds so stupid that not even the Wii wants it.

Yes, Flower is a (non)game for PS3, so i haven’t figured this one out yet either. Although those games do seem better suited for Wii controls. Hrm…

I think this should be interpreted as the DS being acceptive of very simple games.
Something like that found in Wario Ware touched, where you just blow a spinning wheel.

I think it represents the fact that Flower is a piece of crap excuse for a game and even Nintendo with all their ‘casual’ games wouldn’t touch something like that.

I think it might be stating the Flower is such a non-game that even Nintendo wouldn’t pick it up. I could be wrong, but that’s what I get from it. I think Flower looks pretty awesome, actually.

i would be prudent to notice that the Flower Vidcon is not having money dumped on him, but rather MORE flowers, perhaps signifying that King Wii ALREADY has an exorbitant amount of simple games like flower, or perhaps beautiful, flowery games (i.e. Super Mario Galaxy)

I think Understanding might be right on this one.

I didn’t know Flower was a real game. I’ll have to check that out.

@MS(g)B:

You made the DS sound incredibly sexy. That is not a joke, you must write literotica. Or vidconrotica.

Alright, so it’s ‘Flower’ for PS3, and the Wii hates it… so he dumps a load of flowers on it?

Throwing it out into the street where the PS3 picks it up would make sense… but this still confuses me. xD

DS connectivity makes sense at least. *shrug*

This reference is a little obscure. The way Lord Wii kills the vidcon by showering it with flower petals parallels a legend about a Roman emperor who at some point showered his party guests with so many flower petals that they suffocated to death.

As for the actual video game meaning here, perhaps Lord Wii looks down upon inventive motion-controlled games that aren’t on his platform?

Yes Flower is a PS3 game. A game that has won quite a few awards at E3 this year. Widely considered quite awesome. So with this in my head going into this comic it just confused me.

I think Hmmmm & Carman86 combined nail it. That is the comic.

Your comment is awaiting moderation.

Isn’t this a comic describing how PITIFUL E3 was for Wii hardcore gamingwise?
Like… a flower being a game? eh?
That’s what it is… no?
