Anyone watch RAW today? That new Nintendo ad with Baten Kaitos, Goldeneye: Rogue Agent, and Metriod Prime 2: Echoes, that is all you saw for commercials during raw. I can say for the 2 hours of RAW, 1/3 of the commercials was Nintendo's new trio ad.

 

[cvxfreak]

Nice to see them aiming for an older audience with those games!

"Nice to see them aiming for an older audience with those games!"

Yes, 12 year olds instead of 8 year olds!
I hope you are being sarcastic.

Nintendo should start packing porn demos with their games and get it over with.

I don't think Acclaim made demo discs of BMX XXX.

Golden Eye: Rouge Agent

What is this, a fashion video game using the Queer Eye guys?

 

[Mega Man's Electric Sheep]

Yeah, I think it's ROGUE agent, not ROUGE agent.

"This is the 5TH system Nintendo has managed on the back half of a console cycle!"

Maybe Nintendo is really gonna keep pushing GAMECUBE hard even all the way thru next year...I mean they'll have Fire Emblem, Zelda, RE4, Advance Wars & Geist coming next year. You know, it may be a good strategy against MS (even though they're 2ND in marketshare & perception right now) since they'll be the first to move to next generation. Maybe Nintendo could push ahead and become "2ND place" in the end, not only in marketshare, but in perception with all this advertising. Their advertising (in volume & content) absolutly sucked at the beginning of this generation...now, it's starting to pick up as I see commercials all the time and they're better than the one's before. Xenon will look sorta premature while GAMECUBE may become 2ND, fill out it's cycle more fully and set up for "Revolution" better than N64 set up for GAMECUBE.

I only saw it once. I know they ran a Baten Kaitos ad too, but I wasn't paying attention.

 

[Senretsu]

I didn't watch RAW but I saw the commercial during Adult Swim, its a nice commercial

the one I saw was the 3 game one, BK, Rogue Agent, and Metroid Prime 2, very nice.

I see why you have earned your Dr. title.

 

[3phemeral]

I remember they did this same thing with another game.. I think it was F-Zero.... shortly thereafter they showed "Bill Hatcher" and I thought to myself "wtf?" lol

 

[GDGF]

To me it looks like Reggie is earning his keep

 

[SonicMegaDrive]

I don't know about kids, but I do know that a lot of (dumb) adults watch that wrestling stuff.

 

[ZombieSupaStar]

sonic edit that you can get banned for it


and I support those commercials since they had rob song playing.

 

[RobotChant]

Be careful what you say, there are wrestling fans here that are in positions of power.

 

[bishoptl]

bwahahahaaaaa too late

Reggie's overrated. As long as they hired anyone with common sense, he'd be getting the shit praised out of him.

 

[Mike Works]

bwahahahaaaaa too late

hahaha, nothing like getting stunned into a grave

 

[mightynine]

Awesome.

 

[jarrod]

Poor SMD.

 

[djtiesto]

Wouldn't be the first time Nintendo system came out ahead near the end of their life... while everybody (SEGA, 3D0) were working on new consoles, the SNES got an added boost of popularity and sales.

 

[Musashi Wins!]

I saw this commercial last night during the worst Casino documentary ever on FOX. Definitely an older demographic though. All the kids look like their 15 which I guess is their mature marketing angle, but it's nice to see them try.

 

[Wario64]

You know it's bad when there's a thread about every new Nintendo commercial

Poor Nintendo...
