Nintendo commercials continue to impress…

Whatever, Tattoo-weenie

ZING!!

Who are the Ad Wizards that came up… nevermind.

I didn’t go to Advertising School – although I do watch Mad Men and that basically makes me an expert – but it seems to me that this is actually some new form of anti-commercial. It actually makes me want to NOT play this game. Sure, before seeing this ad I had never heard of Lightsaber Duels… but at least I didn’t hate it.

Nintendo’s PR department needs to get back to its roots. Twenty years ago these guys knew how to sell video games.

Ok, so maybe they thought being a huge nerd was awesome back then too… but at least the Japanese knew how to rock the proverbial “hizz-ouse.”
