There were several GB Player ads during Top Model; a couple of times there were two consecutive ads. i also saw the Wario World commercial earlier today.

i've yet to see F-Zero or Star Wars, but i'm glad to hear them show them off now. Hopefully they follow through and continue after the games' release.

Hell is quite cold at the very deepest, according to "Dante's Inferno."
I guess the rest of the place is slightly colder today.

I should kiss the people in the new ad agency.

But the quality of the captured commercials floating around... sucks.

I have to say, I really enjoy the new commercials (Wario World was hilarious, while the others reeked of awesomeness). My favorite ones were the ones showing a heart monitor, as if Nintendo was telling everyone "Hey, we're far from dead."

I don't really like that whisper at the end of new commercials, but it's awesome how that cube morphs into the Cube logo.

Anyway, they already have Rebel Strike commercials? Last I checked the game wasn't due out until September 23rd, and that's 3 months away. Same with Soul Calibur 2, which is 2 months away. Glad to see the Big N's on the ball.

The SC2 ad was about "links got a new adventure now"  "ONLY ON NIN GC!!!!"It showed amazing foorage of Link fighting and said it was exclusive...NICE to see NIN actually doing something.
Graphics freaks are going to go apesh!t over these games.  F-zero ad was short but "only NIN GC this fall".
They really need to show their exclusive games...even ones that have been out for a while.  The general public still doesn't know about SSB:M, Pikmin, metroid, zelda or Mario sunshine, super monkey ball 2, eternal darkness...Man nintendo has a gold mine with these great games...SHOW THEM!

What stations/shows are you seeing these commercials on?  I already saw Fzero on MTV during The Osbourne's last night and I saw the GBPlayer/Metroid Fusion on MTV2, but I want to see the others.

It kind of reminds me of Sega's DreamCast commercials when at the end you would see the DC logo and hear the girl whisper "It's thinking".

Whoa.  Cool.  I'm downloading most of these, but it's nice to know they're actually on television.

I kept seeing the short version of Wario World from time to time.

Then again I barely watch TV anymore, its mostly crap in the mornings.

Nice to see the fact that theres now Nintendo ad's on Planet Gamecube =P

Wow. Talk about digging up a long dead topic. Well, I couldn't find the other thread like this so I figured what the hey.

Anyways, there's a new Donkey Konga ad from Japan. You can see it here. I find it interesting to see how this game actually plays out. Apparently you not only drum, but clap as well.

Here is (my ) the other main thread.  I changed the title so that it would include all forms of media, not just commercials .

This was a part of nintendos master marketing strategy to take as much of the christmas video game sales for themselves as they could, and it seems to have worked, gamespot said something about nintendo taking more than 80% of xmas videogame sales.

It could actualy be more important than you may think, most retail chains draw in a third of their yearly profits during the christmas buying season.


Something I have noticed though is all of the ubisoft game ads, Prince of Persia, the new Rainbow6 game, that Myst sequel, Beyond Good and Evil, and some other stuff. All of them rather highly rated games. If I were nintendo I would consider purchasing ubisoft. Buying rival game companies seems to be the new craze recently and ubisoft would be a great purchase in my opinion. For one thing it would help bring in some adult cash with the rainbow six series, but it would also help shut up kiddy zelda haters if they turned BG&E into a series and pimped it up a bit.

Who knows, I heard nintendo has $6 billion just laying around somewhere, maybe theyll put a portion of it to good use.
Hmm, maybe. Maybe.
