Lol, they'd be wise not to pit Crash Remakes against Mario Odyssey..very... wise.

Thyey're just fun ads. Crash will do very well regardless of it being outted against mario or not. It doesn't have to sell more to be a success.

Now all they need to do is bring this gem back!

 

So this is what deskpro was referencing:

Hey PlumberBoy, Moustache Man, your worst nightmare has returned, pack up your stuff.

Mario: "Crash, what have I ever done to make you treat me so disrespectfully? You're gone for years and when you're back you're suddenly a big shot?"

Luigi: "Mario, shall I have someone hop on his head?"

Mario: "No, just bring him to me. I'm going to make him an offer he can't refuse."

 

By the way, what's meant by "your worst nightmare has returned"? Was this commercial for a Crash sequel?

I presume it was for the sequel because by then crash had become pretty popular os they'd have felt confident making an advert like that. It goes down as one of the greatest gaming ads of all time. Just so epic!

Actually, rewatching the ad, the line is "your worst nightmare has arrived". First Crash. Additionally, the PS controller would not get thumbsticks until after the release of SM64 and the N64 controller's introduction in 1996, same year first Crash released.

Good spot.  They were obviously very confident in their product to make an advert like this for the first game of the series.
