Nintendo-No follow up ads
thesos21:
If Nintendo wants their games to sell better they should not only advertise before the game comes out like they always do, but they should also advertise after the game is out. I havn't seen a Metroid commercial forever.
couchmonkey:
I tend to agree with you, although I think we need to remember that running an advertising campaign isn't easy or cheap. Nintendo has to consider marketing for around ten other games this year. But still, I think you're right. I'm still seeing Blinx and Sly Cooper ads on TV every Saturday morning, Mario should be up there too.
ShockingAlberto:
Hah, I love how you mentioned those ads. Nintendo is accused of being kiddy, while the most notable commercial you mention for the Gamecube is Metroid. On the other hand, XBox and PS2 are famous for Blinx and Sly Cooper.

I mostly see Panzar Dragoon commercials, and GTA: VC commercial. This is mainly on TNN, MTV, Comedy Central.

The time in which your viewing is probably why your seeing those ads.

I see tons of "The Getaway" ads and quite a few "Panzer Dragoon Orta" ads. That's about it.
I have seen that "free game for GameCube" one a couple of times, though.
