Newly accredited gold medalist, Kosuke Kitajima (JAPAN), for men’s 100m breast stroke gave a shout out to Nintendo’s Wii for part of his training and success. Now, The popular system can add this to its impressive resume of accomplishments. Kitajima gave specific attribute to the character Mario in Sega’s Mario and Sonic at the Olympic Games Beijing 2008, helping with his training mentally. Although partly joking when giving his comments about the Wii’s participation it is still very impressive that even at the level of propriety that is the Olympics, Nintendo masterpiece still manages to get mentioned.
