Forums - Nintendo - SSBB is the most underhyped game EVER!

Yeah, Halo 3 ads (TV ads anyway) didn't start until about a month before the game came out I think...there's NO reason Nintendo should air ads until Feb.

Because if you air an ad 3 months before a game actually comes out, the casuals or uninformed will walk into a store, saying they saw ads on TV for a game, and then the game's not out yet.

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )

the only people who dont know about it (out of general gamers) are people who DO NOT own a wii. everyone who owns a wii knows about it. they are the only group of people who NEED to know about it.

Bet With routsounmanman: By the end of Q1 2008 Capcom WONT have announced a RE5 Wii Edition OR a new RE (classic gameplay) for the Wii (WON)

no - it's serious


Ugh, Massive facepalm. You're are so wrong it's funny. Brawl has more than enough freaking hype. More hype than title not called Halo 3.

 well...it needs more hype then Halo 3

wiiforever, you need to shrink your sig again. "28 pixels" is NOT ENOUGH...it takes up way too much space. Horizontally it's fine, but it needs to be shrunk or cropped by like 200 pixels vertically at least.

EDIT: Why is that thing a flash file? Can't you just use a picture? That's probably what's crashing browsers. And mr. wiiforever, you wouldn't want WII users of all people to be mad at you.

Could you please reduce the size of your sig? It takes up a whole screen in my browser.

There should be a rule against this btw (if there isn't one already).

EDIT - BenKenobi88 beat me to it.

Wii and Brawl are way overhyped. I'm tired of Nintendo fan boys lying about how great and supply strained Wii is because everywhere I go stores are full of Wiis stacked five high and they cant give them away. I know this because I work at Best Buy.

 u prob work in the Nintendo warehouse

It is like impossible to find a Wii in NA so Idk what ur talking about. The wii is obviously supply constrained - look at this weeks sales for the Wii - pitiful because of no supply

I don't know how advertising works in america, but i hardly ever see commercials for movies that are released in over a month.. why should games be any different?


Where do you live??? In America, if you go to see a movie, you see trailers of movies that will come out in 1 - 4 months (sometimes even more) On TV, there are commercials and trailers for movies that will come out in 1 - 2 months.


 i meant on tv, not cinema commercials

The Wii is not supply sustrained because every store I have ever been to is overstocked. Best Buy even had to ship some Wiis back because they didn't have room for them on the shelves. The only reason everyone thinks the Wii is selling well is because VGChartz, NDP, and Wall Street is pro-Nintendo so they lie about sales.



America = Best Gaming Console

Europe = Best Game Developers

Not sure where you live Manus, but the Wii's definitely supply-constrained in Chicagoland here...it sells out by the end of the day wherever it gets shipped.

i'm pretty sure manus is joking ben

"The only reason everyone thinks the Wii is selling well is because VGChartz, NDP, and Wall Street is pro-Nintendo so they lie about sales."

Well.. he is joking or not worth listening to.. so either way don't worry about correcting him about supply issues
