Australian news reporter “made a dick” of himself while testing the Nintendo 3DS

Andrew Ramadge, an Australian news reporter got some hands-on time with the Nintendo 3DS recently and admitted that, when playing Target Shooting, one of the augmented reality bundled with the 3DS:
“I made a dick of myself in front of Nintendo’s public relations person as I tried to clamber up on the table to look inside.”
To those unfamiliar with our wonderfully colourful language, this is equivalent to saying “I looked stupid.” But of course, as is the Aussie way, we’re incredibly lazy so any form of eloquence in language will likely get you bashed rather than praised. That said, this does show how immersive these augmented reality games are. At the section of Target Shooting that requires you to shoot a target embedded within the surface you’re playing on, the shot can be somewhat difficult, and getting up onto the table would actually make the aiming easier
