So, how long until we start seeing the Splatoon Rule 34 all over the place. I'm taking bets!

There was Splatoon Rule 34 within an hour of its reveal trailer at E3 2014.

That was actually pretty good. NoA should do something similar, if not outright steal that.

Why the hell wouldn't they use this in North America? Nintendo doesn't understand that the best commercials for America are the ones that have awesome original visuals and are eye-catching.

You had one job, NoA marketing team.

bet: lost

OT: That was actually a pretty good ad. Wonder why they've been being so lazy about their US advertisements.

Oh how naive you are. :p

I truthfully I suspect it is a money issue. I think either NoA doesn't get the advertising budget they had back in the 90s or its the exact same amount without taking into account rising costs and inflation. But I agree even with limited budget, the near pathetic commerical and advertsing they do for their non-Big 3 (Mario, Pokemon and Zelda) has been pathetic with the few rare exceptions.

Sad but true for pretty much anything that looks vaguely female in the game industry.
