It is not worth it to advertise during the Super Bowl. Too expensive. Sony didn't advertise either. Microsoft had an awful commercial for no particular product.

Super Bowl commercials are overrated.

There's 110 million people watching, and no other type of program comes near to matching its ratings. The second most watched event on TV after the SB in the US is The Oscars with 40 million viewers. There's a reason why the SB is so expensive for ad spots. 

And?  You don't think I know that already?

It is a complete waste of money.  The ads that don't make the Super Bowl get just as much attention for free.

Waste of Money?   4 million dollars to get an add spot where over 100 million people WANT to watch commericals is a bargain.   Thats less then 4 cents per viewer, not to mention all of the people that now go on youtube and watch the commerical again expecially if it is a hit.   They could have just shown off Mario Kart for 30 seconds and tons of people would have went "I love Mario Kart, that new version looks AMAZING."
