What the fuck...:lol

Is this real?

 

[Wario64]

i saw this the other day and thought to myself: "Fuck, I'd be embarrased to buy this game"

i couldn't believe it either

 

[Akia]

ya I know I saw it on tv twice. I saw the girl version and the boy one. The girl one is alot better than the boy one.

 

[neptunes]

It's off the hook dawg!

 

[soul.less]

(One of the) worst video game commercials ever.

Seriously, does Nintendo of America want this game to bomb over here?

 

[Musashi Wins!]

oh...yea. enter the ghey.

 

[Ironclad]

That commercial was absolutely pathetic. Shit, what a worthless commercial.

"Nintendogs are off tha hook!"

Play on Playaz'

NINTENDO!
YOU GUYS SUCK!
You have a potentially HUGE game on your hands. Hell, it could be the next "THING" like tomagotchi or pokemon, but you COMPLETELY FUCK UP with the shitty advertising.

HOW DO YOU DO IT? With so many amazing, classy, and charming pet food commercials out there as a guideline, how do you accept something like THIS?

SO LONG NEXT POKEMON!
HELLO maybe 200klifetime inthe US.


EDIT: watched the ad. Should hit the core demographic. Can't wait to see it sell.

 

[ManaByte]

OMFG :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol :lol

I think "Clean is better than dirty" has officially been dethroned.

This is as bad as the Legend of Zelda rap commercial.

I agree with Oli

 

[Senretsu]

hahah! that was great! that boy was trippin dawg! i know its supposed to be a sarcastic commercial but well.....yeah.

 

[belgurdo]

This is all I have to say about this

And "off the hook?" "play on playa?" lawl

 

[SantaC]

what the fuck NoA can't create a good commerical if their lives depended on it.

 

[Mrbob]

 

[ManaByte]

Looks like someone took his name and kicked his ass.

 

[Mashing]

Since when were gamers the core demographic for this game? People who don't play video games are not going to think "that's so ghey!" when they see that commercial. Especially girls and women.

 

[human5892]

Nintendo should just make simple informative commercials. White screen with black text.

"NINTENDOGS IS A NEW NINTENDO DS GAME

IN IT YOU CAN TRAIN A DOG

THIS GAME IS THIRTY DOLLARS"

They couldn't possibly mess that up, at least.

you should meet some non-gamers, girls or women.

 

[imastalker co.]

holy shit. they're gonna do it. they're gonna do it. :lol

 

[Matlock]

Blame Leo Burnett.

 

[Fuzzy]

I must've seen the end of the girls version because I don't think that was the one I saw.

 

[olimario]

COMMERCIAL ISN'T FOR US
It's going to hit the core demo and HARD.

THIS IS WHAT NEEDS TO HAPPEN
They ABSOLUTELY need to have classy commercials for the game that cater to older audiences. Maybe use some high profile, classy celeb like Julia Roberts or somebody really cute like Hillary Swank. Have them play the game, laugh with it, and then have an announcer voice the features.

Kids may respond positively to it and it's intended for them.

Uh...I think Mr. Ed would have a better chance selling the game.

Those had charm! This commercial is just embarassing.

Like he said...somebody like Hilary Swank would make a great spokesperson

 

[TurtleSnatcher]

Sorry but nintendo played the right card here..

The young demographic will see this and instantly run to there moms saying they need to get this game..

gg nintendo you win (sorry the 18+ stuck in adolescent teens dont agree)

 

[acidviper]

Its not too late.

Change it so when the chicks are @ the door there the announcer goes "he gets laaaaiiiiidddd all summer long"

A horse is a horse, of course, of course,
And no one can talk to a horse of course
That is, of course, unless the horse is the famous Hillary Swank.

hahaha, this commercial matches EXACTLY the kind of dipshit that would buy and play Nintendogs. It's perfect. Hopelessly self-deluded children everywhere finally have a product marketed to them and ONLY them!

 

[mj1108]

This....can't....be...for....real.

So Nintendo is trying to tell us that if you play Nintendogs you will attract 13-year-old girls?

Yes, but at least we don't sell pictures of them for PSPs.

"I was just playing with my Nintendog."

The last six months of posts I've generated on the subject would venture to disagree, but I do apologize for not leaving you any room for an apt one-liner!
