Anyone else see this http://arstechnica.com/journals/thumbs.ars/2008/06/27/survey-finds-that-canadian-men-game-naked-in-the-bathroom over at Ars Technica?

According to MS Canada, 20% of male Canadian gamers have gamed in the nude, while 10% have gamed while in the bathroom.

Snaggy, anything you want to share?

Never played naked, but have a handful of Game Boy consoles (a Color and two Advance) so I have actually played in the bathroom.

That reminds me of the GameCube WaveBird controller ad. If somebody finds it, I'll be thankful.

I will admit to playing X-Wing in my underwear (boxer-briefs), but in my defense, there were Wookie slaves to rescue.

That is all.

Canada day? What the hell is Canada day? Is that your National holiday?

Yes. Many Canadians, especially canadian politicians, cruelly lacks imagination. It marks the first confederation of Ontario, Quebec (formerly Upper and Lower Canada, respectively), Nova Scotia and New Brunswick, on July 1st, 1867. I guess they didn't want Manitoba, Saskatchewan, British Columbia, Newfoudland (and Labrador, now), Yukon, Northwest Territory and Nunavut to think they are not concerned. [Wink]

If certain videos on the internet are to be believed, WII tennis can be played in the nude, "hands-free".
