Nintendo gives Letterman DS, Brain Age for his 60th; top 10 reasons he needs it
In honor of David Letterman's 60th birthday -- and for a little bit of cheap PR, of course -- Nintendo sent him a cute little gift pack, not dissimilar to the one they sent President Bush recently, including a couple of DS Lites and some copies of Brain Age to take care of that aging gray matter of his. Here are our top 10 reasons why Letterman needs this package, other than the obvious one: he doesn't.

- Saw Leno in line getting a PSP, knew he had to take action.
- Heard he could get Miyamoto on the show; has no idea what that is.
- There's a DS port of "Will it Float" on the way.
- Got a great deal on some stolen games from the dude outside Hello Deli.
- Been doing standup so long he forgot simple arithmetic.
- Because he couldn't figure out how to do any stupid pet tricks in Nintendogs.
- He's always wanted to make his cranium as veiny and muscular as Paul Shaffer's.
- He's got a three year old who probably pwns him at video games.
- It will hopefully knock off twenty years, to when he used to be funny.
- He needs all the juice he can get to think up these stupid top 10 lists.

Woo Hoo go Alumni from Ball State University!
That list was hopeless. Oh and it's a countdown not a count up.
#8... seriously?
StinkyChink's aside, I thought the top 10 was well done.
You wasted 45 seconds of my life. I hope you're proud.
I hope 7 is true as it will be compensation for the frown lines on the outside!
Cheers
David needs to read these.
I want to see him say "pwn".
Let me be the first to say engadget "POANSCRAPED" you all by making this post....
You lose!
I wasn't digging the list, until I saw #9. Sad, but true and funny.
Um, its supposed to start from #10....I haven't watched his show in 10 years and I know that. Is there a staff editor?
The last part of the letter is the best.
I remember them saying that it's their top 10 reasons why he needs it, unless it was edited I don't see the word countdown anywhere
Why do all the stars get the good shit? Do they no have enough money to buy on their own...hence the awards where they get the gift bags full of shit....I think the Emmy's(?) but could be wrong....
Faslane
Send me somehting pls......hahahahaa
And for the readers that actually watch Letterman:
Top ten reasons I need a Nintendo DS & Brain Age
#10 - My 60 year old brain can't think of any more Clinton sex jokes.
#9 - To answer the question: Will it float? (models drop a DS in tank)
#8 - My brain is so old (audience: "How old is it?") I went to a museum last week and they kept it! (keeps repeating "and they kept it!" for the rest of the night, Paul echos him each time)
#7 - Paul's brain keeps lapping mine at the track.
#6 - Can we put a hairnet on the weasel? (sorry, old brain, forgot which top ten list I was doing).
#5 - Another question: Does it crack nuts? (Rupert G inserts walnut and tries to close the DS)
#4 - My 59 year old brain knew it's cuts of meat. Now everything looks like lamb shank. (shows picture of meat, it IS lamb shank, Stephanie brings him a free dinner and explode-o-pop)
#3 - I bet a 50 year old brain could've thought of a number 3.
#2 - Another question: Will Nintendo Blend-o? (Biff drops a DS in blender)
#1 - I won't use it; I hear them zombies eat the younger brains first!
Paul, you're supposed to list #10 first, not last.
The list was funny, though... #9 got a good laugh out of me :)
