Well we have individual threads for commercials, I don't think this is much different. Having said that, these particular ads don't seem really notable to me or amazing. Pretty standard magazine fair. I thought it was going to be something crazy like a pop-up book.

Ask me about the moon landing or the temperature at which jet fuel burns. You may be surprised at what you learn.
The other day I had a friend go "can you play Zelda so I can watch while driving". I was like no thats not happening lol focus on the road.

Shit's pretty bog standard in terms of magazine adverts. The text isn't that clever, and the images are alright. They get the job done, but I really don't see the brilliance in either the wordplay or imagery.
Eh didn't think they were anything great.
Now this is an ad I can get behind. (͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)

Lol, he's had an account for 2-3 times as long as you.
yeah but that's more about sharing the content of the magazine, I think ads are fine
don't know for sure though
I was browsing online and couldn't help but notice this brilliant Tide ad.
Tide really found a smart way to show they have more cleaning ingredients then other brands.
Other brands are 15% while Tide is 90% cleaning ingredients.
Tide fanboy alert

I like the intent of these ads but they'd work a lot better if they also included a picture of people playing at home, in a car and at the park, ya know?

You do know that trailers are ads too, right?
We have threads for trailers. We've had threads for ads for ages.

*the camera pulls back and shows OP sitting at a desk inside a bland cubicle farm, behind him a middle aged woman stands with a skeptical look on her face*
See boss, I'm not browsing this website for kicks, I'm advertising our brand.
*she thinks for a moment before curtly nodding*
Carry on then Nowise, but we'll be watching you.

I think that "Wii Would Like To Play" series of ads for certain first party titles on Wii were good. The Wii U ads were pretty bad, especially early like the one close to Wii U's launch with the cube rooms and really annoying dubstep/electronic music with the tag line "How U Will Play Next" or something like that. 3DS ads were very mixed too.
I still remember the early DS ads like with the finger and Kirby for Canvas Curse with the tag line "Touching Is Good."
This message board is obsessed with videogame sales. Not sure why an ad campaign wouldn't be interesting to talk about?
Fanboy, they are no that good.
Brilliant? Can't really say it is. It works perfectly for what it is but doesn't really go beyond that.
This was a brilliant magazine ad back in the day
Those pages were stuck together You immediately noticed that 2 pages were stuck together when flipping through the magazine and that the only way to open them was to rip it apart. Slowly pulling you can hear the ripping only to be greeted by
The pages were stuck together at the neck.

Uh, there are dozens upon dozens of threads about video game ads every few months. Why is this thread any different?

What i found interesting in these ads is how different nintendo is talking about the switch compared to the wii u
Maybe these ads are not brilliant (i hope those who got angry are happy now)
But together they are explaining the switch and what it can do better than what nintendo failed to do with the wii u.
It was hard to convince people to buy the wii u, the second screen failed to attract consumers.
I already saw 2 people playing zelda in new york subway, more parents would probably buy the switch so their kids are able to go to family gatherings and picnics and still bring their switch with them.

Similar to their subway train ads, which say the same thing but with more words.
This train was plastered with Switch ads.
I think these subway ads are better than the magazine ads.

What dumb toilet stuff? I want to shit on that too.

Wow. Probably the greatest ad campaign I've seen in my lifetime.
