Forums - Gaming Discussion - How much do each of the big three spend on advertising?

In the UK in the past 5 months the only advert for the 360 i have seen is that stupid one where they set up a living room in the street, but ive seen literally a hundred wii adverts and a lot for uncharted and singstar

Maybe I've been watching the wrong channels, you are right though Wii and DS everywhere.

I hate that advert, mainly because it's trying to advertise it as a fun family console that you can jsut jump in and enjoy, Wii has that down already but it also uses it's Buzz! ripoff game (well the buzzer controler things are in it anyway) to advertise which alot of PS2 owners might just think there's no point as they already have it.

 Sony don't even advertise their console it seems.



Hmm, pie.

Nintendo pulled all their TV ads in Canada.. Like 6 to 8 months ago.

As for Sony and Microsoft, I don't think they've ever entered the Top 15 in spending.

They're not that big in terms of budgets.

Nintendo advertises?



Over the W/E I saw a few 360 adds (DM4), a few PS3 adds (Burnout Paradise) and a few DS adds (Brain train). This is in the UK.



Most of the Nintendo ads are on shows like Nickolodean...


and cartoon network

the same for the ps3 ... i don't see many wii or ps3 ads on tvs though

but i've never seen an xbox ad yet

maybe b.c i don't watch that much tv
