The similiarities between her and her Minecraft counterpart are amazing.

Arguably one of the most powerful/influential people in Europe (if not the world) stops by a games convention. It's not groundbreaking, but it is pretty frickin' neat-o.
Also, the picture of her playing Farming Simulator is hilarious.

Just to be clear the young lady talking is part of a small German video game development company making family friendly and unconventional topic type games who are based in Berlin. She is effectively proposing to Merkel the importance of finacial assistance for start-up companies trying to develop video games and the economic benefit it could provide. Merkel at the end aknowledges the message, mentions Germany could do better and that France, Great Britain and Canada are good leaders in this department. And when she talks to the girl driving she makes a sly remark asking her how the driving is going and says she noticed she was a little slow when watching her out of the corner of her eye but says she couldn't any better either.. lol..
