Title: Is F-Zero still coming out?
Post by: The King of red Lions on August 15, 2003, 04:33:08 PM
I know the answer to that, but 99.8 % ( whatever) of America doesn't... because they have no power!!!!!!!!! ha-ha, oh, that was the best
Anyway, I watch TV constantly and 2 weeks away from release there are no ads for F-zero[still only Mario Golf, Rebel Strike, and Wrestlemania XIX]. Now would be the time for Nintendo to pump out the ads for F-zero, if they want people to consider the game, or even the console. Why only MTV and SPIKETV? Put F-zero commercials on all the major channels. And, 4 weeks away from launch would be the perfect time to roll out P.N.03 ads on the minor channels.
Why are they not doing this?
Any try at an answer would be appreciated.

I saw an ad for F-Zero nearly a month ago, maybe even sooner.

I've seen it twice, I think. Maybe once. But I don't watch that much TV. I like the Mario Golf commercial, though, and the Rogue Squadron one was good, too.

I've seen F-Zero commercials, but that was quite a while ago, when they were running those "heartbeat" commercials. The only commercials I have seen in the last 2 weeks has been Mario Golf, though I haven't seen one since Tuesday. I agree w/you, where are the F-Zero commercials. I also read there was going to be an advertising "blitz" for Soul Calibur II. I have yet to see anything (again, except for those heartbeat commercials many wks ago).

I don't watch TV often enough to see commercials anyway. The only video game ads I've seen recently are ones for Madden2004 during pre-season football games or ESPN NFL Football during SportsCenter. Heh, you can tell my TV preferences.

That's the kind of attitude that makes people hate America.

i see them all the time...in fact i always see nintendo commercials. I always find it weird when everyone says their not advertising. In fact theyve advertising like for months. They want to get the word out. But its unfortunate. TV watching has gone down alot. The best advertising for games is magazines.....and they hate gcn mostly....they do as much advertising as they should on the net. Its just people visit ps2 sites.

Hey Matrix, what I said was basically sarcassm. I don't really believe that the U.S. does or should "rule the world."
It's just that non-Americans, many of whom hate the American Govt, often tend to think that every Amercian Citizen is therefore just as "evil" as they believe our goverment to be. Nothing could be more ignorant or further from the truth. We are a diverse nation of many dissenting opinions. We may do many bad things, but we have given the world more charity than any other nation in the Earth's history. Period.
We are also responsible for a culture that extends beyond our country and into the minds of almost every single person on the face of the Earth. Video games, Movies, Pop Culture, they all began here. I won't even begin to get into the technology that we have developed, most of which was stolen by, or sold to, Europe and Asia.
Still, I'm being arrogant, and for the most part, that is not my way. My vision of the World includes peacefull unity for all who dwell within it. A brotherhood of nations. Still if you are stupid enough to think that a Nation of 275 Million people are all "evil." Then my message is wasted, and your opinion isn't worth my time. I never laughed at another nations suffering. Why should I tolerate the same?
PS. International politics has nothing to do with the topic of this thread. Sorry

The first of the big title games to come out here in the UK is P.N.03. That's 2 weeks away. I've seen or heard absolutely nothing of it.
GAME has footage from it, but that's about it.

I don't know where you guys are gettin this stuff.
I'm a male 16 year old and live in North Carolina. I was simply making a joke about the power outage in the northeast, not making fun of the the great nation that I live in.
Have you ever seen Stripperella? man that show is good, but not as good as burned on MTV!
