Forums - Nintendo Discussion - I just saw a Nintendo commercial on tv!

Tagged games:

Just as the title says, I just saw a Nintendo commercial on tv. It was for Skylanders SWAP force on the Wii U (no mention of other consoles), and it was shown in the middle of one of the largest tv shows in Norway (Farmen). 

 

This might seem insignificant to some of you, but I haven't seen Nintendo commercial on tv here in Norway since 2009 (Pokemon Explorers of Sky). Now carry on with your lives. :D



Around the Network

I was watching Sky Sports and I actually saw a lot of Nintendo commercials, followed by a few Microsoft ones and 1 Sony one.



I haven't seen a Nintendo commercial on Norwegian TV since the early Wii days. Then again, i no longer watch TV in the traditional sense anymore. Perhaps when i visit my parents house once in a whileXD

Nintendo might be better at this outside of Norway. Bergsala is the publisher here in Norway, so I think they take care of the marketing as well. This is probably why we have no Club Nintendo. 

 

I don't get why they market this game instead of SM3DW though.



I've been seeing a lot of Wii U ads. Even a soup ad included wii u product placement. They've been top notch lately.

I only saw Nintendo commercials on Kids channels here in Germany....



When you think my english is bad...sorry for my bad english,    i'm from Germany. And yeees, sorry, that we've almost destroyed the whole world, blahblahblah

Did you catch the footage? If you send it in to CNN, you might get an intereview on Piers Morgan.

...actually, on second thought, don't send it in.



I've been seeing a lot of Nintendo commercials, now that you mention it. Lots for Mario 3D World, some for Just Dance, and one for A Link Between Worlds.



Here in germany, I can also say that Nintendo-commercials on TV are week-for-week more present.

I never realized you were Norwegian. 

 

Yeah, I've been slowing down a lot of tv watching the previous five years, gaming takes up most of my tv time now, but I often watch the larger shows (nytt på Nytt, Farmen on sundays,  big bang theory every day (while doing homework)).
