Forums - Nintendo Discussion - Activision brings back the old "Punch Nintendo" Ads with Blur

Hey kids! Remember the time when making fun of Nintendo was cool? Well something happened (mostly the N64 and Gamecube) so this kind of ads were forgotten. But Nintey is back at top, so it's Ok to make fun of them ... I guess

Sure Blur is going to be a huge sucess ...... maybe.

That was a nice ad to be honest. Not saying Mario Kart is really like that though! They will attract some attention with it, and that's what marketing is all about I guess.



Random game thought :
Why is Bionic Commando Rearmed 2 getting so much hate? We finally get a real game and they're not even satisfied... I'm starting to hate the gaming community so f****** much...

Watch my insane gameplay videos on my YouTube page!

Wow... that was lame :| This game should sell 4 million copies if I remember correctly... wont happen Thank god, the sooner Activision changes the better



Vote the Mayor for Mayor!

Funny because usually there is more destruction in mario kart than in most realistic racing games (damn you blue shell!).



I wanna be a big boy. ;___;

Then again, feeding on my insecurities isn't going to work. Delivering a good game will impress me much more than taking a stab at Mario.



Pixel Art can be fun.

You should congratulate me. I destroyed the vile red falcon and saved the universe. I consider myself a hero.

Lol, that rises some questions about what age target they want to appeal to...



that was so lame, they could have done a better ad without making fun of nintendo



Yeah! I want to be a big bo-

Sorry, I just got a really bad taste in my mouth.

(Mario Kart Wii is doomed!)



They would do much better if they attacked other racing titles of the same style.

I mean you don't see Mario Kart ads taking on Gran Turismo.
