I was wondering which one you guys thought was better - clean or dirty? My friends and I can't seem to agree. Thanks!

Where is the Super Mario Sunshine jingle when you need it.

Off Topic: dirty is definitely meaner than clean.

The general consensus would seem to be that clean is better than dirty. Others have suggested that dirty is meaner than clean. Does that seem like an accurate summary to you? I'll pass the information on to my friends. Thanks!

I think that if this forum lended a collective "Helping Hand" we would reach the answer to this question much sooner.

I normally don't like to use "gay" as a perjorative word, but the bit where the kid skips along singing "Everybody loves a sunshiney day" is, without a doubt, the gayest moment in the history of television advertising.

dirty is da illest

I hope everyone can now see that this was a big, fat parody. The electric guitar wailing at the end of the song is :lol

The ad needed something to let people know it was a joke, I think. It's absurd, but not so absurd that everyone would immediately recognize it as parody.

I think a part of the problem is that the people who can really remember the ads being parodied aren't in Nintendo's target audience. My dad laughed his ass of seeing the spot, but he doesn't buy videogames anyhow.

Another problem was that in some cases the commercial was shortened and all traces of irony were excised.
I saw said edited commercial. It hurt.

I absolutely love how the voices don't match the lip movements. Just one more inclination that it is one big joke.

Clean is always better then dirty.

Clean is always better then dirty.

Yeah, but why be better when you can be meaner!

 

[Blackace]

Well if you are from the South (US) you have to be dirty... hope that clears things up for you :lol

I'm bored. Here is a picture I took at work of the Nintendo stuff that came in the mail.

Both are very clean.

It did. Nintendo overestimated the audience.

The responses to that commercial made me shed a tear. It was obviously a parody, but hardly anyone got that. The problem was that the PSA's the commercial was a parody of were too old for alot of Mario's audience to remember. It was clever, but too clever I guess.

 

[Kseutron]

uh... we're talking about smackdown Vs Raw right ?

Well, Mario can't do it alone!
