381 Kids set DS world record.

[cubin']

We had no idea there was a world record category for simultaneous DS playing. If we had, we'd have tried to set it. Internet fame counts for nothing against an appearance in a beer-sponsored trivia book! Alas, we did not, and this particular world record is now held by a bunch of Australian kids. 381, to be exact, who a couple of weeks ago in a Sydney shopping centre huddled inside a Nintendo-themed barricade in order to set the mark. Sadly they weren't all logged into the one Pictochat session, furiously sketching juvenile sexual taunts to each other; the record counts simply the number of people playing a DS "in one area at one time".

I'm sure Japan will have the world-record when all is said and done. It will be ATE (all too easy) for them.

I wonder if it will outdo the number of posts in the SMG thread?

Doubt there's been 381 kids camped in an area that small with their DS's in japan. I've seen 50-100 people max while waiting for the Wii in japan and they're all spread out. Australia rulez japan losez...

Define an area. You could say Japan is an area. Or England is an area.Silly people.

You're the silly one. "Huddled inside a Nintendo-themed barricade in order to set the mark" suggests it's a small area like the one you see in the picture...they're even more crammed in than Japan is.
