What you guys don’t like the two creepy asian guys knocking on people’s doors saying “we would like to play!”

Its not like nintendo needs commercials anyway…all of their games have been gamecube ports.

that was a funny commercial

I’ve always liked the one for super mario bros 3 where a bunch of people are chatting mario! and wereing different color clothing so when the camera pans out we see a face of mario on the globe

I like how you assume that it “worked” simply because you enjoyed the commercial. Ad agencies track how certain ads perform very carefully and make adjustments as trends change. If you aren’t seeing a certain style of ad anymore, it is because it no longer moves product.

I know personally this commercial didn’t sell me on Smash Brothers on the N64, I wanted to see more gameplay to understand what the hell this game was all about.

How is this Super Smash Bros on N64 commercial considered “old”. To me the old commercials were from NES and Super NES days.

cool commerical – still they might not want that kind of video anymore, because they are afraid that these videos scare away the older gamers
