Enjoy!

[secretvampire]

Weirdest promotion ever! But I signed up for one. :)

[The Successful Dropout]

can't wait to get that hand.....its going to be a back-up for when mine tires out

[seanw]

Uh ....

Neat.

[Santurio]

Sweet!!!
I wonder how many filthy things I can do with that thing..........................the mind just keeps going and going

I wonder if it safe to use on the DS touch-screen!!

[shipwreck]

Why would Nintendo pay to ship out mannequin hands to everybody? It doesn't seem like a great investment. Oh well, I don't own Nintendo stock, so I'll go ahead and order a hand.

[wannabepunktony]

Interesting...but hey, trying to win one of those prizes sounds fun to me! I'll take another DS, 4 games and a $1000. ^_____^

[moiety]

Weird!

[Vinny]

What the hell?

Oh well, I'll try it.:-p

[Alien Spider]

Awesome. And wierd. Simultaneous. ^_^

[ryosnk]

Nice find. Going to enter the contest and hopefully win.

[Snake2715]

What is this? Cool OP thanks for the link

[Nirvanaguy777]

I signed up, thanks.

[Graystone]

Only in America and on the internet can you get a hand in the mail without having a child being held by the mob until you pay your debts.

[CouRageouS]

That contest is going to be interesting. You can get really 'creative' with it heh

[Logain8955]

I signed up for one. :D I'm taking a film class right now in college, so any props like this I can get my hands on helps a lot. Thanks!

[RelentlessRolento]

I'm logging in and I'm getting a timed out.... I sure know of alot of things to touch, since my hands go alot of interesting places. I wonder if this mannequin hand fits in the DS stylus holder...

[Admiral Ackbar]

I'd rather get a-head. Get it? A head!

Waka, waka, waka.

[oper00]

I really wonder how this will work. Do they send you the mannequin and that's it?

[Zoglog]

was gonna do it but it required me to register at nintendo hell :D

[RelentlessRolento]

nvm about the timing out.... hand being sent out... just hope my dad dosn't open up the package since we both have the same names... he'll think I have a fetish or something...

[spoo]

cool thanks.

[jacobv]

So they're really going to send me a hand? Haha.

[poopy]

That is the stupidest thing EVER. I am the biggest Nintendo Fanboy there could be and yet I still hate this promotion. Why doesn't Nintendo come out with more GC compilations to reward their customers for collecting PINs? We've had two rewards so far, big WHOOP. Ok, sorry for the angst, guys. I hope everyone who applies for one gets it... but I know I won't be signing up.

Lighten up. It's a free fake hand.

[DenisDFat]

just shut up.

[2poor]

so they choose the picture which uses the hand most creatively? this promotion is bad ass

[poopy]

Lighten up. It's a free fake hand.

Yeah, I know. I just needed to rant a little, sorry. It's been one of those days.

its going to be okay, i promise

[$hady]

Wtf?

[poopy]

its going to be okay, i promise
Somehow that makes me feel all better. And warm and tingly inside. Thanks. :)

[sarkenobi]

I dig free stuff. I'm signing up as soon as it quits timing me out. Haaaaaand.

[roguejedi5]

Now this is something weird they are doing. But i guess any kind of publicity is good. Just look what happen when they did Metroid prime 2.

[LinkinPrime]

They could be inflatable

[russtophiles]

Guess I'll just have to bring out a little BOONGA BOONGA action to win first prize.

[nein89]

I was going to sign up, 'cause...hey, free mannequin hand. But Nintendo insists that my last name contains unacceptable words. Screw you too, Nintendo.

[imacheapasstoo]

Crap. I tried 3 different browsers and with all of them that site told me my session had expired after I signed in. I'm not using IE so maybe the site is made just for IE. Anyone else have that session problem? I'd install IE on this laptop but I'm using linux and I'd rather not deal with the hassle.

It was doing that to me too both in Firefox and IE. I opened and closed IE like it says and it worked after 3 tries.

I wonder how many hands they are going to hand out.

[shrike4242]

I just had an email cross my inbox that says my order shipped. Woo hoo! :bouncy:

[Freshwillis]

I just had an email cross my inbox that says my order shipped. Woo hoo! :bouncy:

Me too. :D

Should be funny.

[Requiem]

Nintendo scares me sometimes.

[CoffeeEdge]

My god, that's badass. I can't wait for that thing to get here. In the pics on the website, the hand seems to be branded with a DS logo. I wonder if they all are?

Either way, totally cool contest. :)

[Kayden]

Best... Promo... today... hell, it beats the tampons...

[smalien1]

Bet it's just a piece of paper.

[Wulfshake]

Sweet, I'm gonna take it to school when it comes, don't know what i'll do with it though.

[oper00]

I just had an email cross my inbox that says my order shipped. Woo hoo! :bouncy:

Are you serious? I signed up like 60 mins after the thread was created and I didn't get mine sent yet :(

[DenisDFat]

I just got my order and shipping confirmation.

[Dr Mario Kart]

you know, I came across this somewhere else, and I closed it right away. I thought it was some weird fake hand fetish site.

[jacobv]

Shipped. :)

[Wario64]

UPS says my hand is coming in tomorrow

[shrike4242]

Are you serious? I signed up like 60 mins after the thread was created and I didn't get mine sent yet :(
No, I'm kidding. :-$

Yes, I'm serious. Just checked with Nintendo and it appears mine should be delivered on the 6th, though made it from WA to ID in one day. Might get here Monday of next week.

Don't have a mannequin hand laying around to use in your pictures and videos? We had a couple thousand ourselves, but you guys cleaned us out! We'll see if we can get more, but in the meantime...

You don't need to start tearing the hands off the poor mannequins at your local department store, there's a much better way to get yourself a hand.

Just click on the icon below to download your very own digital hand. Then all you have to do is print it, cut it out, and start touching.

I can see these things on ebay now...

I will post picks asap upon receipt.

The picture of the hand had a DS symbol on the wrist I hope this does to...

Maybe its some weird promotion like thye did with Metroid 2 and Monster.com...

We all get Wario Ware or something..

[Eggplant_Wizard]

Got my shipping confirmation.

[Snake2715]

Heres what my order reads:

KIT, FEM GENERIC MNQN HAND DS PROMO

So did anyone get a male hand?

[Rig]

Damn it! They are all out... :cry:

I really like promotional stuff like this...

[Eggplant_Wizard]

Not me.

Heres what my order reads:

KIT, FEM GENERIC MNQN HAND DS PROMO

So did anyone get a male hand?

[DenisDFat]

Mine is female, too., Which will make the inevitable use-of-hand-to-fap situation a little more comfortable.

[Sofa King Cheap]

Can't beleive I overlooked this thread. I thought it was a contest when I first clicked on the link...didn't know they were giving 'em away for free. Good luck with your, um, hands.

[rocksolidaudio]

i actually plan on entering a video into this contest, and they're out of hands, so if anyone doesn't actually need one i'll pay you shipping plus a bit extra to get ahold of one. i don't imagine it's the easiest thing to find otherwise.

[Coolnat2004]

Nintendo is located in Redmond, Washington too.
I understand this. It's just frightening.

Maybe that's why I don't like M$ or Nintendo.. hmm..

[DenisDFat]

or just plain stupidity.

Anyways, to the one requesting a hand, save yourself the money. I'm making a video and it will definitely win the prize.

[Santurio]

:cry: I still haven't gotten a shipping email!! :cry:

[moojuice]

Shipped, but my tracking number doesn't work :(

[Rig]

Did anybody happen to hoard and get more than one? I would really like one, if anybody got extras...please?

[oper00]

Did anybody happen to hoard and get more than one? I would really like one, if anybody got extras...please?

Lol, your paranoia has gotten you because of deals posted on this site. It's hard to hoard if you only have one addy.

[Rig]

Lol, your paranoia has gotten you because of deals posted on this site. It's hard to hoard if you only have one addy.

Not really. If I wanted to hoard, I could use my school address, my home address, my 911 address, my sisters addy, etc. It really wouldn't be too hard, and I bet you money some on here got a couple of them...

I just hope somebody will be extremely generous!

(You could even PM me!) :D

[easy_g]

Shipped, but my tracking number doesn't work :(

same thing happened with me. hopefully it gets here soon.

EDIT: nevermind, now it works. just wait a while and the tracking number should work.

[Gameboy415]

Argh.......I "ordered" one like 3 days ago and still no shipping confirmation :(

[gtguru]

Mine just shipped, expected arrival date on April 6. I'm pretty excited.

[odhen]

Mine is scheduled to arrive on the 5th. \m/

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Mine shipped yesterday. I mean Wednesday.

[moojuice]

Well, my trackign number is working now just like yours easy_g. Free hand on the 5th, woo

[smalien1]

I'll say it again, I ordered one but I bet its either a piece of paper or a dinky little hand.

[Freshwillis]

Mine came today, but I wasn't home and UPS wouldn't leave it. :(

[Wulfshake]

I still haven't gotten a confirmation =(

Edit: It's backordered.

[Clearly Diluted]

I got mine today...it's kinda of white...and unflexible. I actually have no idea how to photograph it now that I have it.

[neonglow]

Got mine too. It has a strong plastic smell and is really not flexible.

[evilmax17]

Anybody want to take a pic? Did it come in any Nintendo packaging? Does it have any Nintendo/DS logos on it?

[Clearly Diluted]

It's a plain white mannequin hand (thought for some reason, mine has stains on it...) that came in a plastic bag with a paper tag stating what you can do with the hand, in relation to the contest.

[easy_g]

don't be expecting posable, perfectly white, ds logo imprinted hands. these are just hands that were pried from old mannequins that had most likely been junked.

can't wait til mine comes on the 5th.

[peteyrose]

So there's no DS logo on them? :(

[aTaRiFrEaK223]

So there's no DS logo on them? :(

nope... I was hoping for one too....

[sblymnlcrymnl]

Just got mine not 5 minutes ago. :D

[alfonsosoriano]

I got an email that it got shipped today. LOL.

[spoo]

I got mine today. Knowing what it was I told my girlfriend to go ahead and open it. She then said OMFGWTFYWFIWWYOTYCAH! I got a good laugh out of it.

Edit: 1k post! :)

[Pure Apathy]

I got mine in today. Not bad for being free.

[norkusa]

Anyone get a "backordered" status for these hands? That's what it says under my orders profile on Nintendo.com. Funny thing is I placed the order for it almost immediately after this thread was posted.

Mine has it, I feel like Waiting it out.

[peteyrose]

Damn, how do you guys get it so fast? Mine will be here on Thursday, almost a week after it first shipped.

[odhen]

It's a plain white mannequin hand (thought for some reason, mine has stains on it...) that came in a plastic bag with a paper tag stating what you can do with the hand, in relation to the contest.

I just got a hand in a bag in a box. I got gypped.

[shrike4242]

I just got a hand in a bag in a box. I got gypped.

Ditto here.

[stalfosking]

I just got a hand in a bag in a box. I got gypped.
Why because you didn't get the paper tag? There should be one in there, mine was wedged under one of the tabs on the bottom of the box.

If that's not why, I don't know how you can get gypped, it was free.

[odhen]

Oh, there it is.

Wee.

[moojuice]

Got mine yesterday, and I must say it really has a strong plastic scent.

[MGoBlue]

Mine is backordered.

[The Successful Dropout]

so what have you done with your hand? that was the point of the contest, afterall....to see what wonderful stuff you'd touch...then send it in to nintendo to win

[Oxybeles]

[punqsux]

[The Successful Dropout]

[jacobv]

UPS just dropped mine off. Now I have to think of something creative for the contest.

[orntar]

This is what I entered:

[Santurio]

I placed my order that same day (3/29) but my hand is still backordered!!!
Aaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhhh

[mozby]

Mine came today! It's a clean white plastic molded hand! Joy! Now, what to touch?....

[cleaver]

I just got a shipping notification from Nintendo, I can only assume it's for the hand.

[mcgavin27]

i got mine today

[Wulfshake]

Mine Actually shipped, hopefully it will come soon.

[Sleepkyng]

mine shipped, i'm stoked!

[Scorch]

Mine came a long time ago.. too bad there's no Nintendo logo or anything on it..

[sarkenobi]

Weirdly enough, I got one last Thursday. The website wasn't working for me on the first day, and when I went back the hands were sold out. I was shocked to get mine from UPS. I thought my order confirmation from Nintendo was my renewal subscription with a t-shirt, heh. I have zero ideas what to do with it, but I can't stop playing with it! Left handed and female. No logos or markings except for the 16 on the bottom.

[Rig]

I also received a shipping confirmation email!

[Vinny]

I got mine a few days ago... I thought they were real mannequin hand, but I got one made out of plastic and I can't even bend it into the shape I want!

I have some idea for this but I'm too lazy to try any of them...

[Eggplant_Wizard]

Regular mannequin hands don't bend. Unless there's a super deluxe model.

[Vinny]

Regular mannequin hands don't bend. Unless there's a super deluxe model.

I know that, but in the sample pics they had (haven't check them in a while), they had the hand is many different positions. Plus, I put in the part about the real mannequin hand because that's what I thought I was going to get (as it looked like in the picture).

But, whatever...

[chunk]

oh man. I missed it and I really want one.

[Eggplant_Wizard]

I have an extra one if someone wants one.

[shrike4242]

[Deadpool]

Ohhh i want's me a hand!

[rebthor]

Got my hand from Nintendo yesterday. Don't think that they like me as much as some of you, cuz mine looked a little off:
http://img33.echo.cx/img33/9704/aseveredhand3pz.jpg

:shock:


I think maybe mine was supposed to go with someone's leg to the IRS, since it was shipped on the 15th. :)

Actually, like all of you, I received a left-handed female non-posable mannequin hand. Now to decide how to enter the contest. It did freak out my kids though. :lol:

[Kayden]

I thought the genitle fondling was a bit too obvious... :roll: :razz:

I wonder how many people thought it would be "creative" to pick their nose with it....

I got shipping confirmation for my hand on the 31st last month... I couldn't figure out why I didn't get it yet... My acct was setup when I lived at my college place... Even though I gave them my current address, they sent it there. :roll: Someone is going to be *very* confused.

My friend who would like to be credited as Rob. B and I, created it using Windows Movie Maker, so thats probably why the file is so big for a one minute video.

When it goes down, Ill try uploading it somewhere else. The link dies after a while, so anyone know any good hosting sites?

When did they tell you?

What was your photo?

[enlightenedgamer]

When did they tell you?

What was your photo?


They sent me an email. I have to sign my life away before they post the winners. Therefore, I have no idea who the others were. My photo shows the hand grabbing a 1UP mushroom. I'm not sure if it's in the gallery. I'm going to check now.

[KongaKing]

Mail? Today? week ago? Im interested. Im in the gallery, wish I coulda won! Contrats!

[$hady]

wow congrats ya lucky bums! PICS PICS PICS!


AND


moojuice your link is dead, everyone said the video was good so can you upload it again? I missed it.

[enlightenedgamer]

Mail? Today? week ago? Im interested. Im in the gallery, wish I coulda won! Contrats!

I received it at 1:58 pm yesterday, June 10. I didn't check my inbox until today.

Also, I'm not in the gallery yet. I submitted on the last day, so maybe they've been working through a backlog of photos.

Thanks for the congrats. I'm quite excited about it. Too bad I popped off the front bumper of my car while backing out of the garage this morning. Two years ago, I got nudged by a merging cargo trailer on the freeway and suffered exactly the same damage (repair cost: about $250). It just figures that a stack of cardboard boxes in my garage did just as much damage. I guess the prize is just the universe's way of balancing itself out...

[enlightenedgamer]
