Sega was awesome. I wish companies still attacked each other like that in commercials nowadays.

Blur...lol the game won't have 1/20 of Mario Kart Wii sales so they can mock Nintendo as they want, Nintendo will definitely laughing last.

Lol @ the FFVII ad. Way to use pre-rendered graphics.

Kinda missed that whole era when Nintendo were in talks with Sony and Philips to make a CD based console, eh?

Or how they never said that discs were crap but rather they are much more easily pirated, damaged, slow and can't be written on.

As for the topic, no company in the industry has been negatively targeted in advertisements more than Nintendo.   But such is the nature of advertising....it always targets what is most successful.

You'd think after all these year, people would realize that betting against Nintendo is not a good idea

That cutie kart thing is so stupid. Nobody plays racing games to look "cool." Actitivion's just jealous that Mario Kart Wii has sold 25 million and Blur probably won't reach 1 million.

I always felt the kevin butler ad was more aimed at ms than ninty? Might've missed something.

Gotta love how they almost all ended up failing themselves.

Sega crashed out of the hardware business, (shame, cos Dreamcast was one of the best consoles ever) Blur couldn't hold a candle to Mario Kart's success, Lynx was a bomb...

Derogatory advertisement is a generally bad idea in my opinion, it makes the comapny look insecure, and leads consumers to associate their brand with negativity and snarkiness.

And I gotta add, Butler is a jackass. I don't care who he supports, he's just the kind of person who, if I met them IRL, I'd want to punch them in the face for being such a smug, sneering pest.

Fuck me! Sony and MS are so proud of having high def graphics. Atari beat them to it... With a portable!

and theyll show you about a hundred sony ones. sony PR is the worst, period.
