"PSP: I have a family to feed."

Wow I LOVED that lol... That was Egoraptor's, someone I'm a big fan of. Had no idea he made that!

This one struck me as being a tad misguided:

They're lucky Twitter was only just being created when this one went up lol

Some off the top of my head 

Yeah those PSP and PSV ads are among the worst ads ever, though I'd say the early PS3 ad campaign was even worse and probably did more harm than good. That baby is creepier than the Exorcist ffs

The only bad things about the Zelda ad is some gender confusion (Link looks like it's a chick while Zelda seems to be played by a dude) and the fact that it totally spoiled the fact that Ganon was gonna be in the game as the final boss, starting his tradition of hijacking Zelda games.

Edit: also, where's the Jaguar?

The Wii U era was a goldmine of cringeworthy ads

Wow. It's as if Nintendo of America fully embraced the "Nintendo systems are only for kids." stereotype. -_-

I really have no idea what the point of this one is, but the PS2 was so successful that maybe they didn't care.

This was the time where the PS2 entered the Black Lodge

Marcus thought Nintendo games were for kids. That's the worst part about those ads.

I don't think those are that bad tbh. You have to admit for a child presence he's pretty good.

I don't think he's "pretty good" at all, they both come across as horribly annoying tryhards to me.
