And just for flashback sake, here's Nintendo (post) holiday ad from 1998/1999:

Is that a good or bad ad in your opinion?

I guess ... ok? The 90s were a different time, this type of marketing was Nintendo trying to (really) react still from the marketing wallop they took from Sega in the early 90s (which eventually led to the "Play It Loud" marketing). 

MTV was more of a thing in the 90s too and this was around the time South Park had just come out and was a big deal. 

Sony generally still had better marketing than Nintendo in the 90s.
