U.S. presidential hopeful Barack Obama asks gamers to pause their Wiis to go out and vote!

Democratic nominee Barack Obama has urged US citizens to remember to vote in this new advertising campaign - with a special shout out to Wii fans. It's just one part of the youth-orientated marketing currently blitzing the States, including commercials on (usually non-political) MTV and in-game ads in Burnout Paradise for the 360 and PS3.

Though we're an European site, we know from our stats we enjoy a good proportion of American visitors. So - make your choice through early voting today! Arguably the outcome of this election will affect everyone - in America and around the rest of the world.
