Yeah, companies flip flop on their commercials all the time.

Sony with PS2 in 2000 (vs Dreamcast)...Our system is the all powerful god!
Sony with PS2 in 2001(vs GC, Xbox)...power doesn't matter, we got the games.

I find it funny that the nintendo ads I find are downright dissing their opponents. Sega ads were kinda funny. In those ads, Nintendo reminds me of that scene in Dumb and Dumber where Jeff Daniels gets hit with a snow ball lightly by that girl...and he gets all serious and hurls one in her face as strong as he can. LOL.

 

I think you're the one being a bit one sided here, Sega ads were funny but so were the Nintendo ones they only took different approaches, that with out a paddle comment is quite amusing, I suppose you're one to ignore Sega's campaign against the Playstation as well which they claimed it stood no chance of cutting edge 3d (boy they got that one wrong) and named it the Plaything, fact is they did ads geared directly at their competitors and got a response as well as being owned.

They got one thing right with the plaything ads though. Sega had a long video game history, and Sony had none.
