Wario Land destroys YouTube!

Although it looks like just a normal YouTube video page, this new Wario Land Experience Wii ad on YouTube is a whole page takeover. I usually hate whole page takeovers and persistent overlay’s, but this Wario Land ad is one of the cooler ones I’ve seen. After checking it out for the first time, be sure to try to drag stuff around the screen. Also, try reloading it and playing with the "normal" YouTube controls – in an effort to make the page look legit on first glance, many of the YouTube controls actually do have (limited) functionality. (thanks Kroosh and ClickZ!)
