First UK Wii ad

[Eddage]

I saw it just now, E4 Music I believe. Was very strange and was surprised to see the Nintendo logo at the end since I though they were trying to just give the Wii an image of its on, i.e not the "Nintendo Wii"

I almost saw it!

Those look pretty good. The sooner we get those over here the better.

[raven_blade2006]

They sure are memorable. I cant wait to see them on TV over here. We just have the teaser ads at the moment(which I still havent seen yet).

That looks pretty lame but I guess it's psychological warfare.

I saw it last night when I was flicking through the channels (I think it was on Kerrang). It's crap.

[Gaijin von Snikbah]

I dont think its crap. I think old people will love it.

[Guest Stefkov]

I'm surprised whcih channels peope has said its been on. Kerrang, Channel 5, E4, challenge TV.

They really are going all out with advertising it. I;m guessing a next one will come out ina couple weeks, maybe showing the Wii itself, or maybe like the Japanese ones, i think, they'll show a bit of footage and show what the wiimote does.

That Us one with those japanese in the car is a good one. Other one wont load.

[raven_blade2006]

Its not crap. That is basically just a teaser ad to generate curiousity. The more detailed ones will follow later.

 

By the way, just look at the Wii advert over at http://www.youtube.com. See how many people have viewed and rated it by now. That is one of the best places to advertise on the Internet for maximum exposure. Good idea!

really like these ads

[Charlie]

Nintendo are advertising on YouTube. The video is on the ad space on the front page

[gaggle64]

Quite like their apartment. What kind of crazy city/rural cut-off zone do they live in though?

[Cubechris]

It was just on Sky One now in between the Simpsons.

I saw that earlier today. On the left it had a little banner saying Wii and some other stuff, and had that US trailer underneath it. Great to see its getting around now.

[Samdecahedron]

I liked it, simple and if i didn't know anything about it, it would make me a little interested. Although when she says "what could this be?", it sounds lke a kids' TV show.

..that's what I thought.. and then I thought .."oh no.."

 

..but it'll do until they get some proper adverts on.. like.. "What Could this be? ..It's only flippin Zelda like! ZING!"

[Samdecahedron]

Haha. My idea is for the woman to say "what could this be?" and then some mad guy just screams "IT'S THE WII! BUY IT!".

[KingJoe]

what could this be?

This is wee

 

(I know it was obvious)

[Cube]

speaking of adverts, theres a poster telling everyone to "pre-order the Wii in-store" right at the door at my nearest Woolworths.

[Kurtle Squad]

I saw the ad last night...I thought it was good cos they're obviously gonna use 'progressive advertising'.

 

I hope Nintendo keep with the load up noise at the start of the DS & Wii adverts...It seems to attract my attention.
