Title: My thoughts on various Nintendo commercials
Post by: theaveng on February 22, 2003, 01:59:43 AM
PIKMIN = Nintendo showed this a lot when GameCube was released. I remember thinking, "What an odd-looking game. Looks boring too. If that's what modern games look like, I think I'll stick with the 16-bit stuff."
MARIO SUNSHINE = "Gee... going around and cleaning stuff. I can do that right here in my own home. Pass."
YOSHIS ISLAND = "Yep... that was an awesome game! Good commercial."
BUFFY = "Cool my favorite show. But why does it look like crap? Sounds like crap too. Pass."
METROID PRIME = "Cool!!! Awesome graphics. It's like an interactive Buck Rogers!" This is the game that convinced me to buy a GameCube.

I haven't really seen any game commercials other than LoZ:WW (pretty good, but slightly corny).
The others, however, are quite cool. For example that old one, "180 games. What a rush." That one was awesome.

The Metroid Prime commercial sucked. I think the best commercials Nintendo makes are those with the guys disguised as Mario, Yoshi etc.

The Animal Crossing Commercials were Nintendo's best... EVER.

Gads, not the Metroid Prime one I saw. . . of course I downloaded it, but it was still cool. May not have shown on TV. Starts with the words:
"The cold silence of space only punctuates the feeling of death that eminates from this virtual and lifeless planet."
while Samus jumps out of her ship and does a bunch of flips.
As for the other system commercials. . . all of those are crap, especially the PS2 ones. I hate the PS2/Walmart commercial, and that dumb Getaway commercial.

I liked the Metroid Prime and Splinter Cell.
Also, when Super Smash Bros 64 came out, I thought it was humerous. That's what kept me watching that commercial. Strolling down flower-filled fields, holding hands in harmony. Then, someone get tripped and all hell breaks loose. That was funny and I loved watching that commercial every time I saw it. Great-looking games like MP and SC kept me watching the commercials because they both looked good and they were both great games with great gameplay(MP has better gameplay, IMO).
