Sega found alot of success in the early 90s by labeling Nintendo devices as being just for kids (which wasnt true) and by making themselves seem like the hip/cool brand. Poking fun at PS/XB and using the most popular celebs at the time could potentially lead to Nintendo finding similar success. |
Segas success was founded on the weighted bias of gamers wanting to associate more with adult / grown-up games than "kiddy games".
Nintendo can't poke fun at XB/PS using that same tact, or they will look stupid, nor can then try to use "haha look at those stupid adult games, kiddy games are where its at" because the general populace still much prefers adult oriented games as a large majority.
Getting celebritys to help try and sell the system as "cool" wont work, celebrity endorsements for the most part only work on something that was relatively popular to begin with, something the WiiU is not.
