Title: billboards over town
Post by: StRaNgE on October 24, 2003, 04:08:41 AM
so yesterday i was driving to work and what do i see in the distance. a billboard from quite a ways caught my eye. on 1st inspection it looked as if it was the band kiss live ( a photo) as i drove close i notice a big bright green yoshi head stuck on top of what i think was gene simmons head. with the slogan which one are you, or something like that.
it was a smaller billboard and i forget the specifics but the fact that it was there at all sorta brought a smile to my face as i finished the rest of the frive to work.
has anyone else seen these or anything else that is a bit different for nintendo in the ad department?

Quite the lucky one, Strange. I got to see an accident between the two commercial trucks *directly* ahead of me on a Sacramento highway on the way back to my apartment from class.

its good to hear that there are billboards and commercials etc about nintendo and thier products, i have to say that living in Australia , you wouldnt expect commercials on t.v to often , but , i saw 5 gamecube commercials in the spand of 1 hour. quite impressive if you ask me.

We also have the Yoshi/Kiss billboard here. It's really a dark ad so it is a little hard to see.

Are you sure? I thought I saw Kiss. I'll have to look again. Maybe our billboard is different.

I believe it's Kiss, but I'm not sure. Nintendo.com has a pop-up that has some flash stuff that you can use to the gallery of who are you pics.
