Short, straight to the point and nicely done. See, people? Nintendo is able to make good commercials. They are simply too stubborn for whatever reason.

Nintendo does make good commercials, when they actually make them and actually market them.

I like it =D



My grammar errors are justified by the fact that I am a brazilian living in Brazil. I am also very stupid.

Not bad. It made the game look high quality. And people like evil penguins.

It's nothing ground breaking mind you... nothing that will make people way wow, I need a Wii U. But a solid ad for the game. Would be more impactful if the ads for the system itself were better.

Nintendo should have aired this during the Super Bowl

$ 4 Million for 30 sec ? I don´t think it would be a good idea

If they want to turn around American sales, great idea. There's a reason commercials are so expensive during SB.

$4 million is probably 20 times more expensive that what the ad cost to make. They are better off leaving this ad for Disney chanel and nickolodeon where at least they know their target audience will see it.

That price is still a slap in the face though. Even if you would want a Wii-U because of this game $299 is just to much.


With that logic then any game advertised for the ps4 or xbone that looks great would be considered way too much at $399 or S499.

I liked the commerial. Definitely a step in the right direction.

PS4 and Xbone are appealing as primary gaming systems, so you buy one to be set for your gaming needs for several years and all the big multi platform games release on them. Wii-U at this point is only appealing for people that want to play one or multiple of Nintendo's own games, and then $299 is to much.

When i look at this commercial from an uninformed potential buyers point of view, is see a game that i might want, but i need to buy a $299 device to play it and that doesn't even include the game i saw in the commercial. I also see that the device comes with a controller with a screen, but the screen on the controller doesn't seem needed to play the game or even used.

Read the above kids for an excellent example of what is known as confirmation bias. Make it a point in your life to at least try to be aware of your own tendencies towards this form of bias.

It was an acceptable commercial. Though I doubt that it's going to convince many people to buy a Wii U.

Good commercial.
