But Costlow (is that his ACTUAL name?) must at some point have prepared that statement knowing there is pretty much NO difference whatsoever except the color. Honest question though: Does pink really attract female gamers? Oh, sorry; "Flamingo Pink accent gradient", my bad.

If I liked a certain game controller, I might even buy the Hello Kitty version of it if one existed. But I'd buy the Hello Kitty version because I like Hello Kitty, not because it's pink. And I like Hello Kitty because of it's <em>Hello Kittiness</em>, not because Hello Kitty is predominately pink. Costlow has it absolutely right in theory, but in practice he missed it by *that* much.

That's... totally insane. I wonder... Do you think they were trying to say that something can't be <em>just</em> pink to be for girls, but has to be pink <em>and good</em>? I can't imagine what other point could logically be made from those two sentiments in such close proximity. Wow. Wow. That’s… totally insane.
