Long lost brothers? Yeaaah. No. Nevertheless, sharing the same strong looks, one might be inclined to say so. But the line stops there in similarity.

O'Brien is a comedian/former writer who has worked on TV show scripts (like, 'The Simpsons') and has been given the title of "overnight success" because of his growing popular late night talk show.

Let's take a look at Phillips now...

Howard is, well, Howard. A nerdy Nintendo pursuit, and portrayed as a "know-it-all" in the Nintendo Player comics, HOWARD & NESTER. If you thought having your own late night talk show on a major network wasn't exciting enough, how would you like to be the president of Nintendo's fan club?

The job specifics? Play games, write tips for an international gaming magazine, star in your own comic strips, and travel free to video game conferences across the globe.

Job requirements? A friendly face, willingness to become a complete tool for the Japanese market, and obnoxiousness.

Thinking how much this guy must have made depresses me.

And so who would win in an all-out comedian-nerd to Nintendo-nerd brawl? Depending on soberness, I would put my proverbial money on Howard. His quick reflexes and stellar hand-eye coordination proves to be just as hard as the original Castlevania's Dracula.

(Tip: His weakness is his groin.)

Coming from an Irish Pub, though, Conan
would definitely kick some clip-on bowtie ass!
