Wii Market placement in TV Shows
« on: December 11, 2006, 01:41:48 PM »
Did anybody see "Two and a Half Men" on CBS, where Jake got, "the new Nintendo" for christmas?

as well as has anybody seen any other market placement advertising of the Wii in other shows?

I saw Two and Half Men and noticed the big Wii product placement.  Everyone here wants it to be on Oprah and it is slowly getting there because you can't get any closer to Oprah thenDr. Phil.

It was on Colbert of course, and I heard it was on Saturday Night Live.. here in Calgary there was also a news section on it for City TV.

Just some random guy on the internet who has a different opinion of games than you.

I can't believe no one's mentioned the awesome Southpark Episode where Cartman froze himself because he couldn't wait for the Wii to come out, only to wake up 500 years into the future.

Southpark is old news and Cartmen didn't give away free Wii's.

I thought the South Park one was a two-parter and not many people really talked about the second half.  Did Cartman finally get his Wii?  Is in featured in any episodes since then?

(I only watched the first half of the first episode involving the Wii before I got bored of it.  South Park doesn't seem as controversial or interesting as it used to be (at least the few episodes I caught so very long ago).  Maybe we're desensitized.  Regardless of my stance of evolution, I don't think anyone cares even if we were the "retard babies of mutant fish-frogs", as they said in the first Wii episode.)

Dr. Phil, eh?  Sweet.  At least Oprah will hear about it, if she somehow hasn't already.  We may get that Wii Oprah endorsement yet.

Even better than that is the fact that you can download those two south park episodes with the Wii, on to your Xbox 360 off of Xbox Live.......Classic
