tsk tsk Nintendo.

I liked "no gimmicks" remark in the second ad =)

Well, probably the reason for Nintendo downfall at the time, it began in SNES era. They backfire at the opponents with this stupidity competitors were throwing at them for quite a while, became too focused on teenagers audience and eventually loosing at this ad war. Maybe I'm wrong but do they were more diverse with their ads in late 80s? Like "You could get old if you stop playing" Game Boy ad?

 Also, the Starfox commercial took a stab at the Genesis as well.
