View Full Version : Won an NDS "Touching is Good" mannequin hand
For 99 cents. I haven't been keen on DS stuff long enough to predict how high this would go, but I have a feeling several people just didn't see it. Or maybe it's only worth a buck + shipping? My bid was significantly higher than the final price.

Original "Touching is Good" website campaign (http://www.touchingisgood.com/)

"Touching is good", i see some guy touch a random girl's ass on the street, the girl stops and ask wtf is going on. The guy replies "touching is gooooood" (good like they say in Bruce Almighty) LOL
Kinda wierd item, but i guess its a collectible :)

Nintendo gave the hands away free if you mailed them asking for one. 'Nintendo' is featured nowhere on the hand, and I suppose not a Nintendo collectable unless someone really knows what it is (and cares).
My entry never did get posted, but I had a feeling it was too controversial to begin with >.>

Cool find. You probably got it so cheap because the seller put the item in a generic Accessories category, not the actual DS category.

Well, it came today and it is as bizarre as it looks. As mentioned above by another poster, it doesn't actually say Nintendo or have a DS logo anywhere on the item. If it hadn't included the original note from the campaign, it would have been practically worthless.
It's now the figurehead of my DS display cabinet, holding a Brain Age stylus. People already gave me weird looks when I showed them the stuff, now they're going to call the men in white coats.
