The old one for SNES for reference to the younger peoples. Nintendo actually uploaded a clean version of it at the sametime!



Nice idea for an ad honestly.

 

[jshackles]

This is wild. It's like the marketing people thought this up when the console was supposed to be called Super Switch.

 

[SJRB]

Unfathomable cringe

 

[Hardensoul]

Same outfit!

 

[Skyfox]

Finally! Quality ads

 

[MDSLKTR]

Oh wow, age finally caught up to him.

 

[BennyBlanco]

10/10 call back god damn

 

[Buggy Loop]

Oh wow, age finally caught up to him.

Yea it did a bit eh? I recall him looking pretty much ageless like not that long ago

 

[Barakov]

 

[Mister Wolf]

Oh wow, age finally caught up to him.

Time to get on TRT.

the question remains: were they planning to call it
Nintendo Super Switch
or
Super Nintendo Switch

 

[HRK69]

Game Chat being in HD is funny

 

[R6Rider]

WTF he looks 20 years older than he did like 5 years ago.

 

[Mr Moose]

Who is the child actor?

 

[ShadyAcshuns]

Just watched them. Bitchin'.

 

[SJRB]

The hair and lighting aren't doing him any favors. He still looks kinda insane considering he's 56 years old.

 

[Kacho]

Raul Pudd

 

[TheChadOfGaming]

they couldnt say say now you are playing with power because they would be sued for false advertising

 

[Mr Moose]

Raul Pudd

Oh I thought they meant someone else. Paul Rudd was never a child, he was born a man. He was 22 in 1991.

 

[VGA-Games]

Awesome

 

[Topher]

Oh I thought they meant someone else. Paul Rudd was never a child, he was born a man. He was 22 in 1991.

22? I've heard of prolonged labor but Jesus!

 

[Dr. Suchong]

Dreadful.

 

[ReBurn]

I'm glad I don't watch anything with commercials.

 

[TheDuskwalker]

Oh wow, age finally caught up to him.

The vampire that turned him must have finally got taken out. Sad

 

[Gamer_By_Proxy]

The Super Nintendo commercial just highlights how much these launch window games suck for Switch 2. Ha! Way better stuff in that commercial.

 

[Kataploom]

Look, IDK who this man is, nor I watched american Nintendo commercials back in the 90s (I was a toddler in anther country, literally)... Yet when the man started speaking I was like "Damn, this sounds like is gonna say <Now you're playing with power> at any given moment". His voices has a strong branding power lol

 

[Deerock71]

His hair is longer. That's it.

 

[Kataploom]

the question remains: were they planning to call it
Nintendo Super Switch
or
Super Nintendo Switch

They probably couldn't decide and said "You know what? Let's just put a 2 on it and call it a day"

 

[TKOFromTokyo]

You all are crazy. I only hope to look that good at his age. He's 56!

 

[kpopSuperstar]

It's the best thing he has been in since Endgame.

 

[kevboard]

They probably couldn't decide and said "You know what? Let's just put a 2 on it and call it a day"

honestly, not an unlikely reason to discard it

 

[awwr999999]

That and they're talking to kids parents who don't care about power.
When this generation of kids grows up they'll want nothing to do with Nintendo.

 

[Dacvak]

Hah, that was a cute commercial. I love that they leaned into that old SNES ad.

 

[Azelover]

That was awful..

They're going for cringe this time? The Switch commercials made it look cool. This is like Wii U level. It makes the product look weird..

 

[Nankatsu]

That lag on videochat seems on point.

 

[kpopSuperstar]

What do you mean? Kids are growing up with Switch, and that nostalgia will stick.

 

[PeteBull]

Still:

 

[RoboFu]

Nintendo is even light years ahead in commercials.

FTFY

 

[AREYOUOKAY?]

10/10 call back god damn

 

[bender]

You aren't bender .

 

[proandrad]

Why didn't they just call it the Super Nintendo Switch.

 

[ReyBrujo]

The vampire that turned him must have finally got taken out. Sad

Nah, that's nonsense. He probably saw the original ad to prepare for this one and the curse broke free.

 

[TheDuskwalker]

[graywolf323]

Nintendo did the impossible, they made Paul Rudd age

 

[reinking]

The smoke machine at the end...

 

[amigastar]

I see, so it's a throwback to old SNES ad, neat.
