Looks like some people are getting a little pissed off at Sony's new ad campaign. They are using something I am very familiar with (being in the ad world) for their "Street Advertising". It's called Chalking or Painting. Basically they hired someone to spray paint (or in this case) stencil their ads all over some major US cities. As you can see the ads are made up to look like graffiti with the subtle PSP placed in each one. I like them. Take a look at some of the artwork below. Of course the graffiti artists aren't so happy.

As you can see some spray paint of black, I did that because it was a swear word.

that entire block already has graffiti written all over it. Might as well add some cool psp cartoons to it.

Why would you say this is a scandal by nintendo, I mean, I dont think that Nintendo has to worry about trying to get in trouble, nor do I think Nintendo wants to

the only reason I blocked out the swearing was because rules on pspbrew state that were not allowed to swear. If you dny that then I will give you a whole bunch of proof saying that we can't swear.
