It's Monday. Spring is apparently with us. It's time for a story about a Nintendo Wii game that shines a new light on the best-selling game console. Gone are the "Old people brought to life again by Wii" or "How I lost 90Kg playing Wii" stories. Here instead is, "Man eats 14 plates of sushi to PR new game".Yes, the Nintendo summit in San Francisco this weekend saw Ninty's PR using a chap called Tim Janus (they don't have rhyming slang in California, right?) as a realisation of a game. Janus scoffed down 141 sushi rolls in celebration of the May 12th release of Mastiff's Major League Eating: The Game. See the video at the foot of this story - if you can still see feet, of course.Janus is a champion eater at Major League Eating, which is apparently affiliated to the International Federation of Competitive Eating. In short, he can eat a great deal of food quickly
