Nintendo threatens Suicide Girls, later apologizes

Nintendo sent a cease-and-desist letter to Suicide Girls for "intellectual property infringement". Why? Because one Suicide Girls member mentions several Nintendo games in his profile. (Took me a minute to find the games; they're listed under "favorite books".) The site owner posted the letter to their forum, where members are getting a good laugh over it. Also discussed at Slashdot and Boing Boing.

UPDATE: Nintendo apologizes to Suicide Girls and offers the targeted member a free game system. Very cool.

UPDATE: The comic strip "Penny Arcade" riffs on the Nintendo-Suicide Girls affair.
