ChocolateeMilk 22 hours ago#1 This is the best Nintendo commercial in ages. It isn't cringe worthy like just about every Wii, Wii U, or Gamecube commercial. quote

Oh, so you want the elderly now? Families with parents + their kids? One of the things this particular commercial did was demonstrate the LAN option, and using your "everyday people" likely would not have gotten that point across. LAN parties have been around much longer than with just millennials. "When you've got no argument, say something bad about <x>."

When I see someone with a phone sticking 3 inches out of their back pocket, they DON'T look like giant d-bags? Even if they're also carrying a spare battery? Because to me, they look like drug addicts AND giant d-bags. Literally if it wasn't Nintendo I would return the god damn thing and never f***ing buy another Nintendo product again.- hilliet quote
