Pokemon, and on, and on…

Hot on the heels of the Hello Kitty empire, the people behind Pokemon appear bent on peddling an absolute plethora of products bearing pictures of Pikachu and his moneymaking pals.

And with the Japanese toy market now absolutely teeming with such stuff, food would appear to be the next target.

Cosmetics and condoms are coming soon.

Apparently.

    I had Pokemon cereal a few years ago (in the US), and Pokemon candy in Pez-like dispensers a long time ago. I believe there were also Pokmon Pop Tarts. There should be more Pokemon food… I want a toaster that prints Pikachu’s face on toast, like the Hello Kitty one.

    They should advertise it “with real pokemon inside,” meaning live animals, games, or the curry is made out of pokemon…i like the last one the best. Btw there is a “pokemon condom” though its not under Nintendo.

    That is a really nice picture, what kind of camera did you use?

    How did you avoid having a big white spot from the flash, and if you didn’t use the flash, how did you avoid motion blur?

    Woah, and what plugin are you using for that cool picture thing that makes it pop up when you click on one? That’s really neat and I want that for my site.
