Why is this so universal? Did everyone know a kid who lied about having an uncle who worked for Nintendo?!

I had to look this up to realize it was satire. When I read the tagline I was really confused.

My dad works at Microsoft and will get you banned from Xbox Live

Same energy of “my dad owns Microsoft and can get you banned” “Oh, so your dad is bill gates?” “Who the hell is bill gates?”

I remember when I was a kid I literally was tangentially related to someone who worked at Nintendo and I actually did get a 3ds a little early (it was a review version I think) and even after I literally showed it to them they still didn’t believe me. I really don’t blame them

When the “my uncle works at nintendo” kid actually tells the truth

It’s me I’m the nephew (my aunt never worked at Nintendo she just went to college with reggie)

That's because he has a 32 year old nephew. Who's me. And my uncle told me that a new F Zero is in development.
