The Japanese ad is no better, she's just making "cute" sounds and talking about how cute everything is.

It doesn't have to do much to be better than the NOA ad, the NOA spot is that terrible. But worse than than that the image the NOA marketing pushes is horrible, Nintendo is for kids, blah, blah, blah. At least in Japan they find it OK to market Nintendo games to adults, not sure why NOA is so deathly afraid of doing the same. 

In my 20 years of following Nintendo, their current marketing agency is the worst. Not even the GameCube era was this bad. At least the "clean is better than dirty" Sunshine spot was trying to be funny. 

Well, I agree that Nintendo's marketing has changed to more "kiddy" over the last decade. They seem to be cornering themselves in that segment of the market.
