Fair enough about the Shogun thing though. Although I've never heard anyone describe Resident Evil as "Weeaboo" before. So that's neat.

    6. Memes aren't manufactured, they're born.
    5. Now we know why Konami left the video game business for a decade...

    I'm proud to say that I helped change some show floor rules of E3! In 1997, I was marketing a title named "Uprising" for Cyclone Studios (a division of The 3DO Company). We didn't have enough budget to be on the show floor, so I turned to guerrilla marketing techniques. I printed up thousands of glossy color posters, and continually affixed them to every wall, escalator, elevator, pillar, door, and restroom stall I could find. The posters were affixed with tape (so that surfaces would not be damaged and the posters could be easily removed), and I was careful to not cover up anyone else's paid signage. I only targeted unused, "neutral" public spaces.
    The end result was that despite not having an actual E3 booth, "Uprising" received a massive amount of E3 buzz, industry press, and a fairly strong product launch that fall. E3 quickly implemented rules, so that any company who tried to copy this guerrilla marketing technique would be levied with massive fines. While it was a little desperate on my behalf, it broke no rules at the time; and I did what I could to help make our game a success. Je regrette rien.

Konami's especially was almost an avant-garde attempt at subversive humour, my favourite part is just before the anime girls trailer came on screen, they wheeled out someone to describe the game and sell it before the trailer plays and to his credit he did a really good job and it all sounded fine, then the trailer starts and the anime girls appear and you just go "oh no...." and feel instantly bad for the guy that they forced out there to promote it
