i like how back in the day commercials used to tell you about the plot of the game and everything. now a days they don't tell you jack shit and show little to no gameplay
Yeah, the Nintendo DS commericals aren't that interesting and is it really nessicery to use celebreties? So far the only thing I like about the DS commericlas os that they show more woman playing games. But I just wish they would normal everyday women playing these games.
yea i kno what u mean with nintendo's commercials. i like some of nintendos stuff including animal crossing. now i look like a quer bcuz of how they did the animal crossing city folk commercial! its so fucking gay! the game is badass but does nintendo have to make it look so damn gay? look at the ocorina of time commercial, that was the shit right there, best commercial nintendo ever made in my opinion (with the exeption of the smash bros 64 commercial of cource)
While I don't particularly nintendos new commercials i'd still rather have todays format than the old style ones.
Some of the ones you listed like the smash bros one, the legend of zelda were awful.
I remember the Donky Konga and maro kart commercials for Gamecube here in the UK, they were fucking embarresing to watch I had to turn over the channel.
Here's a better idea for video game commercials: Add comedy to it instead of being overdramatic (I'm looking at you Gears of War). Mercenaries 2 is one of the best gaming commercials this generation, because it was action packed and funny, but my most favorite video game commercial was the Spyro 2: Ripto's Rage PS1 ads when the PSX and N64 were facing off. Oh yeah, and the Mercenaries 1 & 2 commercials.
War games, I can understand being dramatic in the ads, but add some comedy for others, geez!
I agree that most video game commercials are crap, the DS commercials with Underwood and Ferrera are boring, I'm always going WTF is this crap(I dont say crap but you get what I'm saying), another commercial I remember from back in the day was for one of the Mario games, had a kid yelling "MARIO!" alot and it panned out to a bunch of kids doing the same and they were all in the shape of Mario's head, what happened to ones like that?
I remembered seeing the first SSB commercial it was hilarious!XD Those new Nintendo commercials with Celebrities are dull and uninspired. The Sonic Unleashed commercial is frickin cool when a guy transformed into a Werewolf and his mother is all bewildered.
Magus u gotta be kidding me, I made a video about video game commercials a couple of days ago and I'm about to upload it today. It's funny how we think of similar topics haha. Gamers...
I also don't like the Nintendo commercials with celebrities. It's like they are trying to use the star power of these people to sell their games.
I also like the First SSB commercial, it was hilarious. I also like the classic Nintendo Power commercial, that one was random, but fun to watch and full of memories.
Most of the commercials these days have nothing to do with the games.. its so annoying to have like a random person watching tv then suddenly some caption pops up with the game name.. it doesn't make any sense... Wii is totaly overrated they're always on!!
The new DS commercials over here SUCKASS...seriously Girls Aloud playing Mario Kart DS and saying "Augh you beat me" Nintendo are patchetic now I can't stand wacthing a bunch of idiots who have no idea how to play Mario Kart coming in last place and saying "I love beating you" yea DS ads are horrible to wacth.
Nintendo should have made a proper commercial for Zelda: Twilight Princess, Mario Galaxy,Super Smash Bros Brawl and Metroid Prime Corruption. Each commercial should have been made more creatively and not the "Wii would like to play" line with the actors. The marketing team should have made the audience focus more on the game itself, not the hype that is building around the couch.
I personally love Video Game commercials nowadays. Things like the Gears of war mad world video (Which is my favorite of all time by the way)Was amazing.
Yeah even though its over dramatic but do you remember the commercials from the ninties? Where like some kid is walking along and suddenly a television explodes and some muscle guy screams,"PLAY MY MOTHER FUCKING GAME ITS EXTREME!" And the kids nuts instantly drop and then he's playing Ironsword with fabio.
The shit from the ninties was far more extreme than what it is now.
But seriously Nintendo had the weirdest commericials. Touching the world and moving it for example.
lmfao hell ya I rember that stuff :P or like sonic it was so in your face ITS GOT FUCKING BLAST PROSSSING BITCH :p wtf was blast prossessing anyway XD
I remember we were watching an old vhs recording in class and an old Orcorina Of Time commercial came on and we were like Ah memories when the announcer said coming soon
I bought a wii and went to my friends house with my girlfriend and said "wii would like to play" and he slammed the door in my face and laughed at the door. Good things I had warhawk with me. Everyone loves warhawk.
Yes, I agree that the Mercenaries 2 commercial was amazing. I heard the game wasn't too great, but the commercial was excellent. It's the catchiest shyat I've heard in a while XD
I like the Gears of War 2 commercial and see nothing wrong with it being so dramatic, given the setting of the game. I mean, what do you expect, looking at it realistically. Humanity was almost wiped out by savage aliens, so the few remaining humans have to cope with that, and also be prepared for future battles that are not in their favor at all, and etc. Yea it's a game and you don't expect something like that from a game, but still, I see nothing wrong with the new form games are taking on.
(Continued): and lets not forget the rediculouse Playstation 1 commercials which were just as halariouse as the old school NES,SNES and Genesis commercials,especially the older Crash Bandicoot commercial advertisements for CB1,CB2,and CB3,and even advertising for Pizzu hunt with some idiot moron in a crash bandicoot cosplay/suit making a fool out of him self.lol
Nintendo and Sega used to have some freaky outrages commercials back than that will zone your mind out,like the Wario commercials like with the super mario land 2 commercial where Wario hypnortises you into brainwashing you to dystroy mario and the Wario blast commercial where he has Sex with a Bomb.XD
and the very first sonic commercial with the lady against violent video games criticizes sonic and not to mention Kirby had some freaky commercials back than as well.lol
It's "The Legend of Zelda" and it's really rad! Those creatures from Ganon are pretty bad! Good vid, buy the way. I don't like Nintendo's latest commercials either.
I really like the World of Warcraft commercials where Mr.T and William Shatner (and a couple of other celebs) are talking about what class they choose and how they evolved a bit from that point (Im not much into World of Warcraft anymore,but i still like the commercials)
Yea but they didn't air those fun commercials that nintendo made back on the NES or SNES in sweden,why....because they didn't want video-game commercials on there tv network...instead they wanted a commercial...about bread....yea
But now these days i can see a lot of video game commercials,I actually saw 3 trailers when i went to see Quantum of Solace today (the commerials where Qunatum of Solace the video game,Gears of War 2 and Far Cry 2)
I miss the old days of gaming back around the N64 & PS1, just about eveyrtime I changed I changed the channel & a commercial was on, a game commercial would've aired most likely
Now there are less, and if there are any commercials they only contain direct footage rather then original ideas
i dont think they showed alot this year......i liked the new sonic unleashed comercial, lol the guy wanted to eat the cat and his mom is like whatever
Worst video game commercail I've ever seen was sunshine's!I'm so glad that sony doesn't have the stupid baby commercails for the ps3 anywhere that was a very stupid commercail in my opinion.Great vid magus!
You should hit up retrojunk if you haven't they have all commercials,tv episodes,toys,videogame commercials from like 70s,80s,90s etc....it is so nostalgic and makes me happy.
I love watching the old commercials like on retrojunk or what have you.They have like the old Mortal Kombat commercial,that is just crazy with the mob aspect.
Who remembers the old majoras mask comercial with the giant moon about to crush the city? Man that was a classic when I first saw that.

Most of the 360 commericals felt too dramanic
The Nintendo commericals today does shows a good example of the Wii or DS, but boaring.
Atleast the PS3/PSP commericals has some humor.
SSB was the best video game commerical ever XD.
