A man who calls himself SAL9000 has married his virtual girlfriend with a public reception, MyFoxDFW.com reported.

The man reportedly fell in love with a virtual girl named Nene Anegasaki and plans to hold a public wedding reception in Tokyo.

Since the girl doesn’t really exist, SAL9000 reportedly took his Nintendo DS to Guam for a legal ceremony and honeymoon, and will livecast the upcoming wedding reception online, MyFoxDFW.com reported.

SAL9000 met his “bride” on the video game Love Plus, which requires players to take out the virtual girl on dates, buy her gifts and make their girlfriends happy like they would in real life.

    Sounds to me like he needs to get a life period. This may be one of, if not the dumbest thing I have ever heard of. The man needs help.

    This man is in a position to make HISTORY!

    If he ever wants a divorce, all he has to do is donate his Nintendo to a church (which would probably be a good idea anway), and write it off as a charitable donation.

    Making money on a divorce! Who’d a thunkit?
