Yea, that was interesting...at first I expected him to whip out a DS and start playing, suppousedly online, which wouldve been impossible considering he was in the middle of nowhere. Thankfully, that didnt happen.

is this Nintendo thinking outside of the box now?

I seriously hated it when Xbox resorted to theatre ads....... now Nintendo follows?

I'm glad they are starting to look alive... but I just don't think game ads belong in theatres.

Sony better stay away from the theatres with their Playstation franchise.

I think PS2 had theater ads...

Heck, I think Gamecube did too...

But maybe I'm mistaken...

I think Metroid Prime had some kind of theater ad.

And that ad was nice. But why "touching is nice"? Has it been this way since the beginning?

Yeah, that has been the campaign slogan for DS because of it's touch screen.

There was a playstation 2 ad. It was that confucious one where he takes about Ratchet & Clank, Jak and Daxter and some other game.

"Confucious say you're fired!"

KoToR had some theater ads a couple of months before it released.

It was great because eveyone assumed it was for episode III, only to have a video game commercial crammed in their faces.
