Japanese Gamer Loves Video Games. Really, Really, Loves Video Games. »

Forget gay marriage. The final frontier in convincing holier-than-though fundamentalists that the end times are near is all in the pixels, baby — and by that I mean marrying a video game. Are you sure your buddy loves World of Warcraft or does he love World of Warcraft?
The genesis of this boldly going where no nuptials have gone before? Nana Anegaski, a virtual girlfriend in the Japanese dating sim Love Plus. An unnamed Japanese gamer with Ms. Anegaski, in his Nintendo DS, went to a church in Guam to do the deed. The newlyweds also held a small reception for family and close friends yesterday. I am not kidding, and I do not know if Mario and/or Master Chief were in attendance.
Seriously, if you can marry a video game I have plans on getting hitched to Dazzler in her ’80s-era graphic novel form. If anyone can understand me it’s Alison Blaire, the mutant lovechild of Marvel and Casablanca Records.
