Topic: billboards over town

[StRaNgE]

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?

You mean a bit like this?

I'm assuming that those aren't official...But you gotta love the Captain Falcon one

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.

Just for the Record it was The Who, not the band KiSS! Has anyone heard "Who are you" song?  .  Man Im a big Who fan, and a Nintendo Fan, This is the best thing that could happen.....eVER!!!  

[NintendoFanGirl]

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

[StRaNgE]

hey rob, when did the who start dressing up in 6 inch platform boots in the shape of a dragon face?

guess they must have borrowed  some clothes from kiss just for that photoshoot for just the one billboard on one street . hmm go figure, huh rob.

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.

[Rob91883]

The Who, this is what i saw

Maybe you guys saw something different

[StRaNgE]

nope that is not what i saw rob, but thanks for the link, it's pretty funny too.

although no yoshi head like we mentioned above, lol

[PIAC]

you mean this?

[mojorizin]

Apparently Pete Townsend DOES dress up in high heels, makeup and leather.  But never in concert.

[StRaNgE]

hell yes, that's the one, lol

Seems  a great new advertising strategy so far, hopefully it pays off.

PIAC: Your sig needs some shortening.

[PIAC]

NEVER! i must display the fact that men find me attractive!

[KnowsNothing]

Oh PIAC!  You are the essence of beauty, the light of my life!  I love you PIAC, do you hear me?  LOVE YOU!

*cries because I will never meet my beloved*

Instead of quoting it like that, you could just write "Aiai: etc. etc." and it'd take up less space.  Whatever, I don't care either way.

Yeah, it's definitely Kiss. . .
