Title: Baten Kaitos Commercial
Post by: Aslan the Lion on November 11, 2003, 10:23:36 PM: Have you all seen the new Baten Kaitos Commercial, I'm sure this has been floating around for about a week now. To those who haven't seen it here's a link: http://www.nintendo.co.jp/ngc/software/gkbj/index.html

The commercial link is at the bottome of the page.

I think when they start advertising this in the US they should keep the commercial exactly the same, sans the Japanese of course.

I can't imagine them nixing this commercial too.

Just look how awesome the Japanese commercials for Super Mario Sunshine, Wind Waker etc, and how they turned out in the US. The Japanese ones have much better gameplay footage.

Post by: Mario on November 11, 2003, 10:37:16 PM: Yep, its Leo Burnett alright. To be fair though, Nintendo's latest adverts (kindly captured by Berto ) have been very, very good.

BTW, ive never seen this famous "Clean is Better than Dirty" commercial, does anyone know where i can download it..?

The demand for Baten Kaitos and Tales of Symphonia is going to be (and already is, to an extent) huge, they will sell like crazy.

Post by: Bill Aurion on November 13, 2003, 04:59:06 PM: They're bringing ToS here, so I don't see why they wouldn't bring BK here...

Some of you know that I've been hating on the character design...Welllll...I changed my mind...Though I still don't like some of the character art that shows up when a character is talking, I give two thumbs up to the one-winged angel... ^_^

Post by: Berny on November 14, 2003, 01:54:09 PM: Yes, but I wasn't listening. I still think that ToS looks better. Hands down OR up. But now I want Baten Kaitos too. It's amazing how a simple game trailer was all it took to change my mind. My simple, easily swayed mind...
