But is it really a degrade in quality ?

Don't know if this was mentioned already, and I refuse to navigate dozens of spoiler filled pages just to see if this info has already been posted.
Since my brother was going into the city today, I paid him to go to the Nintendo World Store and reserve the game. Apparently they told him that there will in fact be a launch party Sunday night and they'll start selling the game at midnight. I'm so going to this.

Fair enough. I figured there was more than justBebpo said:
luigi and comet. So it's just the purple comet challenge then.
BTW, how do the high scores for each level work out? Amount of coins + stars? Does something show up when you get one?

I had a similar reaction but look at it this way, those ads were part of an advertising campaign that saw the product being demonstrated become a phenomenon. It makes sense for them to retain this ad format for subsequent game releases.

Not bad, but not that great. At least you know what it is about. Sometimes, I watch spots that are so shitty that I don't understand what is the commercalised product or company.
A mistake: they should have included the main theme of the game, like the japanese commercials. It hypes a lot more.
all this talk of
pretty much harkens back to NES games that were hard as shit because you had to start over. Games should not always be easy and this is something Im actually happy about. Especially since you guys still say this game is somewhat easy otherwise.

does anyone know if this game will actually be in stores on the 12th?
the place i preordered from is now saying the 13th and i am about to go and cancel if so.
also hopefully the advertising will get better next year after the old staff is purged.

Although I didn't mean to say "vomit in his mouth". I think that a sexual fantasy coming out subconsciously.
I don't mind the 'we would like to play' ads because I understand what they are trying to do, but why not do what many other companies do (especially with things like movies) and create two versions of the ad. One could be this thing with mom and her kid and the other could be ... well ... cool, more like the latest PS3 ad or some of the Mario Galaxy ads they play in Japan. You play the casual ad during the day and other appropriate shows (e.g. Grey's Anatomy) and you play the cool ad during things like football and on Spike. As a young male gamer, the 'we would like to play' ads do nothing for me but my wife likes them.

God the worst was a few months ago when I was picking up EDF2017 at GameStop I overheard a husband and wife in their 40's at least in front me in line repeat "Wii would like to play". I wanted to slap myself in the forehead.Amir0x said:

I tried it out for the first time today, I find it kind of hard to describe missions as the area was sort of non-descript aside from this one black hole.

Yeah, I don't think so. A big part comes from the positive press of newpapers and in general the very good reputation of the console, outside within partly of hardcore's gamers and partly of the hardcore's press.

I hope. I can't actually think anyone would be amused by the commercials enough to repeat them in their everyday life.Amir0x said:

I usually like those Wii would like to play ads but I don't like this one for Mario. Ahhhhhh.
The Amazon one was better, especially at demonstrating the grzvity aspect.

Who cares about this week. I'm much more worried about all the shit I have to do immediately following Super Mario Galaxy's release. I mean, it's not really a big deal that I'm forced to begin the game three or four days after everyone else, but it would be nice to be able to play it immediately when I pick it up. I have a physics exam though.

What a piece of shit commercial. Do we need that template for EVERY FUCKING GAME? Jesus. They hardly showed any gameplay, and had that shit music again. That commercial ripped all personality out of the game. Why the fuck cant they just copy and paste the damn japanese commercials? I'm sorry, but it irritates me that they have to do such a shitty job advertising the game. Whats wrong with using some of that awesome game music? Its impossible to get any wonder/excitement/anticipation from that commercial, especially for people who have yet to hear about the game. Who decides this? They should all be fired. If I had anything to do with the game Id be bludgeoning myself with a stick after watching that. It makes it look like a damn minigame. But maybe thats what NOA WANTS people to think.
