I now pronounce you husband and what?!

In another sign that the world is about to collapse, multiple blogs are reporting that a fan of the Nintendo DS dating sim Love Plus (you know, the really creepy one) liked his virtual lady so much that he decided to marry her. For real.

Apparently, a Japanese gamer known as 'Sal9000' was officially wed to Nene Anegasaki, one of the game's three virtual girlfriends, in what must have been the weirdest ceremony in the history of ceremonies. We can only assume that Ms. Pac-Man was the maid of honor.

While the two aren't planning a honeymoon -- after all, one of them is a VIDEO GAME -- they did hold a small 'reception' in Japan for friends, family and the media, indicating that this is most likely little more than the looniest video game publicity stunt we've seen in some time. Check out this video recap by Boing Boing, complete with footage of the happy, er, couple:

And they don't allow same sex marriages in japan, although they do recognise same sex marriages that were held abroad.
Imagine havin less rights than a bunch of pixels.

shqipshume · 25-11-2009 1:19pm

And so begins the world of no sexual intimacy

Didnt they make a movie were swapping bodily fluids became illegal.Next :pac:

Captain Havoc · 25-11-2009 1:21pm

No one has mentioned that she's on a dating simulator, is that as bad and sad as it sounds?

I could suggest a free dating sim for him!!!!!!

That's for his mistress to do.

I knew a girl once who was a vegetarian and she wanted to marry a carrot.

"Lisa's going to marry a carrot! Lisa's going to marry a carrot!"

Considering where he is from and the stereotype of that races "hardware" then most probably a 3 1/2 inch floppy

allanb49 · 25-11-2009 3:04pm

Futurama was right, DONT DATE ROBOTS,

Dubs · 25-11-2009 3:08pm

lucky him being able to turn the volume down on her whenever he wants

Podge2k7 · 25-11-2009 3:14pm

I bet you she will cheat on him with Bob.

Saibh · 25-11-2009 3:21pm

Should have kept mybrute - could have pimped it out to someone in Japan.

ejmaztec · 25-11-2009 3:21pm

If I were him, I'd go for life assurance next, then accidentally drop her down the sh1tter.

kerash · 25-11-2009 3:29pm

Praise Bob!

By being an Ordained Minister of the Church of the SubGenius, you can officially marry anyone, to any person, thing, object or even themselves.

We authorize Short Duration Personal Marriages, which can last for fragments of seconds or into the afterlife. Want to marry your pets, your wallet, your computer, yourself !? You now have the power. "Bob" grants it with every paid ordainment. This is the only TRUE and PURE marriage; recognized by no one except yourself and "Bob".

Marry a Hostess twinkie. As long as you believe in it, it will be the most fulfilling and profitable marriage on this sick Pink infested planet of complainers!

DON'T DATE ROBOTS!

Gummy Panda · 25-11-2009 7:10pm

I wonder if Konami have a sequel or another game in their dating series waiting to be released now.

This could be some great marketing by them.

Corkfeen · 25-11-2009 7:28pm

There are handy aspects to it. When she starts to annoying him he can threaten to turn her off.:D

well when a man and console love each oter very much.
he first starts with foreplay. inaerting usb keys and typing not words into the run program.

then it advances to the insertion of a floppy "disk" into the disc drive.but it dosnt fit so he transforms to a hard disk or dvdrw.

after inserting it in the tray and pushing in the disk tray. the disc runs for a couple of moments.

after a while the disc is recongised and a program will run. a new file is concived.

after a couple of minutes of it running and installing itself, the baby is born or created.

now you know about the "boards and the keys"
