I was walking in the local Westfield Shopping Centre yesterday, when what did I spy? A man with a large backpack t.v walking with two other people. It was a Luigi's Mansion style backpack, eg. The backpack looked like the vacuum but it had a t.v sticking out of the top. it also had the phrase PIXMAN on the back (I don't know if this has any relevance,) Now being the inquisitive person that I am I went to see what was showing on the t.v to my great surprise it had a Nintendogs promo blaring. This then ended and it changed to one of Kirby.
I soon realised that these were Nintendo advertisers, the first I had ever seen. The other people with the PIXMAN had people huddled around them, these people were playing DS's whcih were attached to a belt that the promoters were wearing. I was with a group of friends and I persuaded them to join me in playing a DS. The two people had different game choices, one had Nintendogs and the other had Kirby: Canvas Curse. I have Nintendogs so I went with the Kirby, it was a training level. I had just finished this when the demo ran out. POXY DEMO! My friends had been playing Nintendogs, they loved some even said they were going to buy DS's and get Nintendogs. I am not sure how truthful they were though.
As we were leaving the lady with the K:CC said "Hey, you guys want some stuff?" The stuff she was talking about was Kirby Yo-yo's and Masks. FREAKIN' SWEET! I grabbed two Yo-yo's and one mask....there was also phone-wallpaper Nintendog cards. It was lucky I took 2 yo-yo's because one broke.....
I post this because I not only saw the promoters yesterday but also twice today at different locations, and each timwe they were riddled with people. This is the first active advertising I have seen with NAL. Has anyone else seen something similar?
