Nintendo's DS Lite retrofitted into MacBook Air ad

It's hard to deny that Apple's MacBook Air advertisement is pretty catchy, and while the DS Lite doesn't exactly pull off the whole envelope exit quite as elegantly as Cupertino's latest lappie, it doesn't do a half bad job representin'. In the spoof waiting for you after the jump, you'll see a black DS Lite retrofitted into the MBA spot, and while the text, lighting and overall smoothness isn't on par with the original, at least the music is spot-on. Click on though to see for yourself.

Update: Psh, thanks for pulling the video, YouTube and / or user. Well, trust us, it like totally existed. ... Ok, looks like we're back. Thanks EspadaUno.

Speaking of parodies, anyone see the Jerry O'Connell spoof of the Tom Cruise video? Comic gold: http://www.funnyordie.com/videos/3f716ffebe

Another great vid from these posts. "if you don’t know how to help them…...Then learn how to help them"

[phanbouy @ Feb 18th 2008 8:38PM]

ya.. my favorites are "I've traveled all over..... Los Angeles", and "I wish I could just go...romp. But I can't....... cuz I'm broke".

[Rhys @ Feb 18th 2008 6:25PM]

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHg5SJYRHA0 is a better version of the same idea.

[Tyson Williams @ Feb 18th 2008 6:27PM]

lol, damn you.

[Raheem @ Feb 18th 2008 6:30PM]

Holy shit I've been Rickroll'd.

[Apple Mac Bon Jovi Aerosmith Ipod -Unicorn Tears- ilife forever @ Feb 18th 2008 6:41PM]

hehe me too!

[HOOPER @ Feb 18th 2008 6:54PM]

You have such a long name...

[JLTate @ Feb 18th 2008 7:26PM]

Man, that song reminds me of the good parts of the 80s.

[Andrew H. @ Feb 18th 2008 11:54PM]

ffs...

[Papytendo @ Feb 18th 2008 8:15PM]

Every *Bangs Desk with fists* frickin *Bangs Desk with fists harder* time!!!!!!!!!!

[Thomas P. @ Feb 18th 2008 8:51PM]

I hate you. Seriously.

[skulldriveshaft @ Feb 18th 2008 9:56PM]

That has got to be the most sexually ambiguous video.

Feel free to correct me.

[AJ in the East Bay @ Feb 18th 2008 11:15PM]

Dang! RickRoll'd!

Like JLTate said, the good 'ol 80s...

[Darkest Daze @ Feb 18th 2008 11:17PM]

Does it count if I enjoyed the video?

[Reginald @ Feb 19th 2008 3:13AM]

Dammit! That's like the second time that's happened to me here.

I hated the 80s and I hated Rick Astley.

Thanks :-P

[Alex Padilla @ Feb 18th 2008 6:25PM]

You can't even read half the "Nintendo DS" logo with the damn envelope. While it's a decent video, why the hell couldn't they make the text readable?

[Drew @ Feb 18th 2008 6:26PM]

I LOL'd.


Haven't been able to use that literally in a while. Good job.

[Mike @ Feb 18th 2008 6:39PM]

lol nice logo

[KaRmAChAnG @ Feb 18th 2008 6:26PM]

I've got to admit, that was pretty well done

[Les @ Feb 18th 2008 6:29PM]

haha awesome

[Anthony @ Feb 18th 2008 6:34PM]

Yep, I'm that douchebag that took the joke too far, and who got banned (and then some). C'mon spammers: [e-mail]

[maryland157 @ Feb 18th 2008 6:50PM]

OMG that was annoying!!!!1

[phanbouy @ Feb 18th 2008 6:52PM]

that was a dirty dirty trick anthony. thank god for NoScript

[paul34 @ Feb 18th 2008 7:32PM]

Very dirty indeed. I had to manually close my Firefox window.

I still laughed though

[Reader @ Feb 18th 2008 7:51PM]

Hmm 'sadly' it's all script, and I don't feel like giving your site temporary permission.

[mushrooshi @ Feb 18th 2008 8:17PM]

wow, thanks for the no-script. imagetitnow.

Also, Watch Our For those Thetans >.

[phanbouy @ Feb 18th 2008 8:37PM]

is the noscript author a scientologist?

[Tiptup300 @ Feb 18th 2008 9:04PM]

DIE

[trevor @ Feb 18th 2008 9:59PM]

I can't believe this many people actually followed that link.

It's a tech blog; you'd think there'd be more common sense about safe surfing!

rule 1: use protection (antivirus & firewall)
rule 2: don't download or open executables from strangers
rule 3: no matter how tempting, don't click on solicitations for penis pills, money-for-nothing schemes, or offtopicblogurlsthatlooklikethis.com! Sheesh!

[Good_Bytes @ Feb 18th 2008 10:06PM]

I reported the post in the hope to get it removed.
In my point of view, this just stupidity is not required in this place, and should not be encouraged.

[Dominic @ Feb 18th 2008 10:22PM]

haha..I've used that link to prank my friends in the past..so I know it by heart now. I always open Opera to view it to give myself an own chuckle..and it doesn't effect Opera in anyway so I can close it anytime I want :D

[CUBSWILLWIN @ Feb 18th 2008 10:59PM]

how'd he completely edit his post?

[Brownjohn @ Feb 18th 2008 6:38PM]

they need a better hand model

[Homeboy @ Feb 18th 2008 6:39PM]

Now I need to find an A3 sized envelope for my 19" widescreen HP monitor.

Truly preferred that version.
Music isn't quite as loud but it's a bit better.

[CUBSWILLWIN @ Feb 18th 2008 8:13PM]

not a trick is it. I've been rick rolled twice, second time my browser woudn't shut up and shut off!

[White_Pheonix @ Feb 18th 2008 8:25PM]

Nope, it's real. Flashblock is very useful, I find, as I can click on youtube links, and then not see the video until I decide to let it run.

[Shadowfox952 @ Feb 18th 2008 7:06PM]

DS could lose a little more weight, dontcha think?

[bi0hazard @ Feb 18th 2008 7:24PM]

a lot of things/people could lose a little weight

[mushrooshi @ Feb 18th 2008 8:12PM]

No, Americans need to lose wait, for Wii Fit ^.^V
