tablet_user Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I'm a bit surprised they actually sent her one. I wonder how many people will start doing this now; pretend to be a kid and write letters to Sony, Nintendo, Microsoft, etc. :laugh: the letters are sent from the school and most likely nintendo called to verify that there was in fact a project going on. The teacher was a Sony fan probably. Have you been to a game site?. Sony fanboys wouldn't know to make that many corrections in grammar and spelling.

mokthraka Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I think her WHOLE class all got one "I hope you AND your classmates" its nice to see nintendo doing this, I know they have done stuff like this before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DirtyLarry Veteran Posted May 25, 2010 Veteran Share Posted May 25, 2010 I think her WHOLE class all got one "I hope you AND your classmates" its nice to see nintendo doing this, I know they have done stuff like this before. I am under the same impression. Just as you pointed out I think she might have actually sent 25 DS's for everyone by the way she worded it. Either that or she has never been around kids and expects 25 kids will share 1 DS. :laugh: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deep1234 Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I am sure also they send 25 DS to the whole class, otherwise they will fight over it :D. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ayepecks Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 11-year-old writes letter to Nintendo? Isn't that like saying 5-year-old writes letter to Santa? :laugh: Still cool she got results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SharpGreen Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Seriously, even though the structure isn't quite there (which is a bit normal), on a purely grammatical and orthographic point of view, she writes better than most of my classmates in software engineering. Not to mention some teachers... That brings to mind something a computer guy told me once when I picked on his writing skills. "I'm an engineer, not an English teacher" Also I think its pretty sweet that Nintendo sent her a DS as a response to her letter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamwhoiam Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 She probably received the grade before sending the letter. Based on grammer, use of words and spelling, I would have given her a B. I'll give you a C- for that little gem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
todd Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I made a similar thread a while ago praising Nintendo. They gave us a free Wii after a house fire. It's so good to hear about their great customer service.

Gamerhomie Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 I remember this assignment. I sent Al Pacino a letter asking for his autograph in middle school because I sad I really enjoyed his movies. I got a signed photo back. :p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undefineed Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 hating aside, i found that to be really cute :). good on her for using her mind and not really begging, however strategically asking for the hardware. nothing wrong in asking. Its the fact that we think that we don't have that right that screws everything up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

philcruicks Posted May 25, 2010 Share Posted May 25, 2010 Dear Bugatti... Haha! nice. I think her WHOLE class all got one "I hope you AND your classmates" its nice to see nintendo doing this, I know they have done stuff like this before. I think it was just one the letter said "I hope you and your classmates enjoy playing the DS" (singular) I presume the kid's meant to share it. Tho if they got 25 what a result!
