Planning a heist? 3D images of Nintendo HQ

Got plans? - Image 1 


If you're planning to embark on a campaign that will spark a new definition of fanboy terrorism, you may find this post quite useful. Apparently, some Japan-based reader named Matt has informed Kotaku that that he has made a 3D model of Nintendo of Japan's HQ building using Google Sketch up. The report says that he used reference photos that he took of the site.

So anal was the person about the precision of the rendition, that he ended up revisiting the site to measure the outer wall's bricks. Fortunately for him he wasn't arrested.

Matt claims that he will be uploading the models to Google's 3D warehouse in a bit, even though he feels that it's still a work in progress. Below are samples of that 3D model:

If you're looking to take advantage of the fact that the DS prints money, feel free to use the images as you wish. Too bad there aren't any images of the interior.

[ You know we're kidding about all this heist/theft/terrorism stuff right? ]

Yess, now my plan of Video Game Domination will succeed. With this model, I can find the structures weak points and plant demo charges there, and threaten the demolition of Nintendo HQ. I will capture the president of the corporation and demand he/she to put my brainwashing video feed into the games. I will render it invisible to the human eye, but as the game is played, a series of events will happen. Thus, brainwashing the minds of all, and you all will be under my control.



By the way:

Is anyone else disturbed a little bit by the word anal? It's right there in the second paragraph.



P.S. This isn't terrorism, I couldnt take over a lemonade stand. I just thought I would just seiz the moment and make you all worried: HAHAHAHAHAHAHAH HAHAHAHAHAHA!!! !!!!

Metroid: Anal has another meaning besides the sexual one...the dictionary is your friend ;)



On topic, I actually just downloaded SketchUp a couple hours ago, and it's safe to say that takes quite some skill...

This building looks really grim. It could even be a prison. I didn't know that Nintendo's HQ looked like that. I would have pictured it as a way more colorful place. Maybe in the shape of mario's head or something like that.

Yes this picture does make Nintendo HQ grim but i would assume that its because it is not in colour.
