sushi-for-2 People are proud of eating, and it shows. Mastiff proudly notes that “ingestion history” has been made on April 11, when professional eater, Tim ‘Eater X’ Janus, set the world sushi eating record with 141 pieces of sushi eaten in six minutes at a San Fransisco press event to preview the upcoming WiIWare game Major League Eating: The Game.

Yes, disgusting as it may sound, there is indeed a competitive eating circuit, and yes, there’s a game coming out, too. It will make its debut on the downloadable game service for the Wii which launches May 12 in North America. The game will have gamers play as any one of 10 MLE “athletes” and duke it out against the CPU or another friend. As expected, it will have multiplayer support and over 12 different foods.

I cannot write more about the game, though, if you are interested, check out its official website.

P.S. I feel sorry for those who had to witness such an atrocity at the press event.
