Nintendo has collaborated with Signal Collective and the C.O.D. Graffiti crew in order to produce some ultra hip, totally rad, in your face, limited edition x-treme to the max DS skins in Canada. While the bold use of color and grafitti styles make them quite attractive, the ghettofication* of Nintendo's characters strikes me as more than a little frightening. Mario sporting bling and some cornrows? Yikes.
* Not an actual word, sadly.
