Starting a contest that might never have a winner is a bit of a bummer. You spend day after day wondering if you’re just abusing your readers to drive up virtual ratings with no real payoff in the end. Luckily, that hasn’t happened here. Heath Phillips, creator of the now infamous Masturbating Gameboy commercial, has been keeping tabs on all of your suggestions just like we said he would — and one of them’s tickled his fancy! But just who got to name the gameboy? Find out after the jump.
Our winner is Phil Manley (Phil, we’ll be contacting you shortly to get your prize to you.) His suggestion? Well it’s none other than naming the Gameboy after everyone’s favorite game hating lawyer…
Jackie T.
Many thanks to everyone who entered. I’m sure we’ll be hearing from Heath Phillips and the freshly named Jackie T real soon.
[We're learning that youtube has pulled the video (bitches). Here'a link to it on livevideo]

Does anyone have a WORKING link to the original video? Seems Viacom made Youtube take it down and I never got a chance to see it (and of course all sites link directly to youtube).
If anyone has a link please post!
