Whoah. Link is more brutal then most of the characters. Ironic, no?

Wow that looks incredible, since when did Nintendo start making awesome commercials again?

joshnickerson · « **Reply #4 on:** August 20, 2003, 04:03:32 AM »

That commercial kicked seven different kinds of ass! Too bad I haven't seen it on actual TV yet...

jarob · « **Reply #5 on:** August 20, 2003, 06:42:03 AM »

I saw it on 'Paradise Hotel'. A definate mature show.

Those are some very neat combos he pulls out. Can't wait to play it! Nice commercial as well.

KICK ASS

Link is an official Bad As$. He just jumped on Maxi and punctured his lungs and oh my gosh I want this game. Link's voice sounded a little strange to me, but it could just be my craputer. Way to go Nintendo advertising. Wait...I didn't know those words could be used in the same sentence! What is going on?

Oh, my God! Hell froze over! Poor devil!

Molobert · « **Reply #10 on:** August 20, 2003, 09:59:53 AM »

Hoooly crap that's a cool ad. We need more of those!

BlkPaladin · « **Reply #11 on:** August 20, 2003, 10:26:06 AM »

Accually its kind of hard to figure out who made that commercial. I think both Namco and Nintendo went in together.

PIAC · « **Reply #12 on:** August 20, 2003, 10:32:12 AM »

quiet! we are on our nintendo suddenly rocks at advertising high horse, dont take that away from us!

but yeah, your probably right, that or a 3rd party made it for the both of them damn does it look good

Pale · « **Reply #13 on:** August 20, 2003, 12:19:53 PM »

Are there similar commercials out for the X-Box and PS2 only with their "special" characters?

Berto2K · « **Reply #14 on:** August 20, 2003, 12:23:11 PM »

I can't wait to do a little ass whipping like in the video. I just love that move, don't know why it so hilarious.

Oh ya, I got an email from gamestop today, the release date for this game has changed to.....today!! Go check your stores.

Perfect Cell · « **Reply #15 on:** August 20, 2003, 12:29:33 PM »

Yes i saw it too, its VERY Good. Stuff like this helps plenty. Cause people will think Soul Calibur 2 is only for NGC Thats the general public btw. Not the hardcore gamer.. Anyways, i cant wait for this title, just to use Mitsirugi once again

blu knight · « **Reply #16 on:** August 20, 2003, 12:35:22 PM »

I got the same email from Gamestop, but I've been checking up on this and if you go to the website then they have SC2 coming out on the 26th. Honestly, I don't know which one to believe but if I get the game early then great. Maybe for people who preordered before the 20th will get it early while people who preorder now will get the next shipment of games on the 26th, who knows. But I don't want to start this whole crazy Gamestop information thing so to be safe just call and email around.

Berto2K · « **Reply #17 on:** August 20, 2003, 04:07:09 PM »

Just to be sure, I checked my bank account online. There is a transaction for today showing for the price I paid for SC2 which means that it shipped out today. Maybe they are only shipping pre-orders out this early. Even so, that just mean I get the game sooner to hold me over till fzero gets to my doorstep.

blu knight · « **Reply #18 on:** August 20, 2003, 06:27:39 PM »

Thanks for the idea to check my bank account Berto. Looks like I'll be getting the game early too(or atleast gamestop took my money). Stil, I only got the standard shipping so I'll probably get it sometime next week. I guess it pays to pre-oreder sometimes.

Griffin · « **Reply #19 on:** August 21, 2003, 06:46:50 PM »

Damn, that last move he pulled off looked nasty...nothin like a facefull of the Master Sword's hilt to ruin yer day! Has anyone seen Cassandra's throw?! THAT'S wicked! She impales her sword in their chest, then uses it as a springboard to launch herself up, then comes down with a foot/knee to the head before retrieving her weapon. Ugh, SC2 or F-Zero......I don't know which I want more...gotta catch 'em all!

Griffin · « **Reply #20 on:** August 21, 2003, 06:49:18 PM »

Oh, and by the way...I work at Best Buy, our release date is the 26th (although we may get it in as early as the 24th). Also, it seems that most people that come in are looking for the GC version...many people don't even know it's coming out on all platforms. Seems Nintendo may be doing something right here...

Fammy2000 · « **Reply #21 on:** August 22, 2003, 10:25:39 AM »

On Amazon, as of 3:25 PM EST, sales rank for the various SC2 games (this includes ALL products on Amazon):

5th: GCN
20th: XBox
23rd: PS2

Right now, it looks like the GameCube is the best seller. Go Link. These numbers change hourly I think, but things tend to hold pretty steady of a day period or so.

EDIT: Here is a link for the lazy.

Griffin · « **Reply #22 on:** August 25, 2003, 01:08:35 AM »

Well, it's obvious that PS2 will eventually have the most sales due to a much larger user base, but it's still nice to see the popularity of the GC version

Berto2K · « **Reply #23 on:** August 25, 2003, 01:26:54 AM »

as of 3:31 am on Monday the 25th, here are the rankings for SC2 within all items video game related on amazon.com.

gc: #36
ps2: #87
xbox: #102

Fammy2000 · « **Reply #24 on:** August 25, 2003, 03:51:19 AM »

Don't look at 3:30 AM, no one buys video games at that time. As of this writing, the GC version has bumped to #1!

I saw the commercial this weekend. Wow. I need Link.
