Title: What happened to Nintendo pulling our ads?
Post by: Plugabugz on December 17, 2007, 10:56:58 PM

I've seen about 8 adverts advertising a Wii game (Wario Ware, Mario/Sonic, Mario Strikers and Mario Party) in the past 90 minutes.

I suppose the idea of hyping it up even further - so people go across to France to get one! - is too tempting to put down.

I thought they meant ads for the system - why pull game ads, don't like a million people in the UK own a Wii?  Nintendo wants to sell them games too!

What UncleBob said. Plus if there are any system ads, they might be residual ones.

NOE seems to really be on the ball in terms of marketing. Don't they have lots of Underground ads too? I wish there were that many ads over here.

There's ads all over the damn place, including these blatant ones:



You can tell NOE are trying to hype this up as much as possible when they're promoting games from the makers of nintendogs.
I reckon it'll start having a negative effect when you see ads for games for a console you can't get hold of.
