In 2007, a cabbie commented to Melanie Bush that bedtime stories weren't read by as much people as they used to due to "Nintendos and Playstation" in the room. (AUDIO: Unregenerate!)
In his adventure with the Tenth Doctor and Rose Tyler onboard the SS Madame de Pompadour, Mickey Smith wore a T-shirt with a picture of the Nintendo Entertainment System controller over the caption, "Know Your Roots". (TV: The Girl in the Fireplace)

This particular T-shirt, a limited edition, could be obtained either by subscribing to the British Nintendo Official Magazine, or by being purchased at selected GameStation outlets. In Doctor Who Magazine #367 Noel Clarke admitted to being a Nintendo fan and to being the owner of a Nintendo DS console. He also commented upon the T-shirt in the commentary which accompanied the episode on the BBC Website. Appropriately, Mickey is involved in a video game-related adventure in the spin-off novel Winner Takes All and is seen playing a video game with the Tenth Doctor in the comic story The Lodger.
