Okay... So I've seen a lot of AC ads lately. I have to say, they seem to be moronic. Nothing at all happens in the ad! Nothing! They talk about T-shirts for the most of the time, and it lasts for over 20 seconds! It is being more advertised than Mario Kart was, and THIS is the ad?
Anyway, I couldn't find the exact ad (probably Norway exclusive, it isn't dubbed, but in Norwegian), but this is another one. The Norwegian one is far worse though.

Okay, but aside from the fact that I hate the appeal of the ad.
I wonder - is AC being advertised as a womens' franchise? Has any game ever been advertised as that? As far as I know - no. That's pretty interesting. You would think that the first game that was advertised like that would be a DS game. Also, I believe that the Sims (original) had almost 25% women (that was said as if it was a lot, and it probably was), but I can't find the article.
Anyway, what do you think of the advertisement? And please, refrain (spelling?) from just bashing the commercial. Some bashing is fine, but try to look at why Nintendo made it like this too.
