Demuwan Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 http://www.infendo.com/2006/02/hidden-message-in-nwc-video.html#comments Are Nintendo going Subliminal on us. I think the word in the trailer is revolution. Would this mean Nintendo have decided to call 'the' console Revolution. Its most probably doesn't mean that at all. But when news is as scarce as it is we tend to speculate. I think Nintendo are just using things like this as fuel for speculation to add extra-emphasis on E3. When we are finally let out of the dark
Sooj Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Yep, it does say Revolution. I can see the "olution" pretty easily. Well, just a little but of the N but you can tell that it is
BGS Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 haha that's a really nice find. Not sure if it actually means anything though.
Social Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 http://img108.imageshack.us/img108/203/delete0di.jpg hmm, even though there is something there, I think people are seeing a bit TOO much
Big Red Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 meh............it could just mean a revolution as in revolution and not the new console
Social Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 yea but what are the odds of that happening in that fashion?
Big Red Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 quite hi as it has the world on it nameing differnt countrys or contenets witch ever it was. revolutions do tend to affect the world in witch we liv
Nintendork Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Clever, I'm curious as to whether these marketting strategies work. I'm not as skeptical as I would normally be, being a scientist.. because I've seen that Derren Brown work his magic. He went through a conversation with this guy about his birthday present.. dropping little words with emphasis. You didn't know he was doing it or how. The the guy asked for a red BMX bike, and derren of course opened up this guys present. Then they played it back and you could see the hints for the bike. I think this marketting works.. Everyone watching that video is on the site because they're interested in Nintendo, they might be considering buying a DS because the wifi connection. Perhaps this advert places a seed of thoughts in the consumers mind. Revolution could be the final name after all, Of course i'm 99% gonna say it is a coincidence because this is Nintendo of Europe. lawl.
knightendo Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 maybe a little TOO coincidental though..? hmm... it certainly looks convincing enough that it's parts of the word "revolution", and if they simply meant something straight forward like the wifi connection being "revolutionary", or it having somethingto do with the globe, why not make it more obvious that it is that word...? i think they're teasing their fans that would be able to spot something like this
DCK Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Hyping never hurt anyone. Seriously, Nintendo was looking for people to see this and this just creates a bit of extra attention for them. It doesn't mean anything.
Nintendork Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 You know, have you ever listened to music.. in particular rock music. The bass.. it doesn't really do anything, as an instrument most people barely notice it. But without it, you don't notice it.. it's just there because it adds depth to the music. When designing graphics the aim is of course to sell a product.. get a message over.. but if there fading REVOLUTION wasn't there would the advert be as effective.. from a aestehtic point of view.
21st century cowboy Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 what part of the trailer is this in? i've looked and can't see it. i was never really good at where's wally though!
Guest Stefkov Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 ha no way, i saw that video a couple of weeks ago and i never noticed that. nice
mario_jr Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Maybe it says "WIFI CONNECTION" but they edit it to look like it says "Revolution"
ShadowV7 Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 ha no way, i saw that video a couple of weeks ago and i never noticed that. nice Ha I saw it never noticed,its during all of the video in the background moving slowly.Definently a V there,cant make out the first couple of letters to fuzzy
DiemetriX Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 I can make out Revolution Are subliminal messages legal?
ShadowV7 Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 Any where we can download this video from?
The Peeps Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 I'd hardly call it a subliminal message as you can see it quite clearly, subliminal messages can only be picked up by your sub-conscious so you don't even know about them. This is just the word Revolution in the background, interesting though because why would Nintendo put it there? To indicate Revolution and DS link up, or just that Revolution will also use WiFi, or maybe just that WiFi is another revolution that Nintendo are offering to us.
ShadowV7 Posted February 14, 2006 Posted February 14, 2006 First thought I thought it was to show that the revolution would use Wi-Fi but it would be hard for people to notice,i've been to busy to watch (looking at the background) but does the trailer specify it was only for the DS?
Guest Stefkov Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 haha this reminds me of that family guy episodes where they were talking about subliminal messages. theyre showing something and some guy comes on and say "smoooke" then it goes back to the orignal advertisement. anyway, this is one of the best avertisments ive seen feom noe
fatnickc Posted February 15, 2006 Posted February 15, 2006 If you set your screen brightness up, you can definately see it much more clearly.
