Okay, so, get this: while Microsoft is out arranging big Halo 2 promotions like Midnight Madness, Nintendo has some brilliant PR campaigns like donating 1,000 doors to Habitat for Humanity to celebrate the launch of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door and do a good deed at the same time.
Okay, for freakin' starters, it's JUST ONE DOOR in the game! It's a THOUSAND-YEAR DOOR, as in "1000-year," an adjective. Maybe had they donated 1,000 years of extended life to residents, well then I just may be impressed.
:lol
Like I said, it's nice that Nintendo is doing some charity work, but this is not the image Mario needs and, more importantly, why is someone arranging photo-ops like this and not focusing on -- oh, I don't know -- Metroid Prime 2?
This is how Nintendo PR combats an aggressive marketplace WTF!?
Thanks Mario, for making the world a better place! Where's Master Chief during these times of trial and tribulation? Not building houses in a suit that's got to reek of funk in about 30 seconds flat, that's for sure. He's mowing alien-tail down with duel-wielded weaponry, that's where! That's not a role model for your kids, now is it? Instead, buy Nintendo games because it builds houses with its world-changing mascots.
:lol
Microsoft is dominating the press with Halo 2. It's a phenomenon. I'm hearing the Halo 2 chorus just randomly playing on radio stations. Everyone talks about it. It practically sells itself, but Microsoft spent a lot of time and money promoting it. Meanwhile, what's going on with Metroid Prime 2? Gotta tell ya', the game isn't even out and as a member of the press I can tell you there's only about a dozen people that even understand what the game is about. Or, whether it's going to be any good or not.
Where is the flashy Metroid Prime 2 trailer in theaters? There's like one very lame commercial ad. This for a game that has some of the most beautiful atmospheres I've seen in recent videogames.
