3DS product placement proves Nintendo knows what it's doing

Is this even product placement or a prop.

Have you ever seen The Greatest Movie Ever Sold? Props basically double as product placement anymore. Believe me, after seeing that movie, you will have no doubt that companies are well aware of what they put in front of people.
 
Random thread.

Nintendo always knows how to advertise their handhelds.

They aren't placing Wii U's in living room's so you might want to re-think that.
Pretty sure OP is being sarcastic. I think he's trying to say that the 3DS's appearance on the show being played by that character enforces the negative stigma that comes with playing Nintendo handhelds as a grown adult. Or I could be totally off base
 
I feel like OP was trying to get at the fact that the dude playing the 3DS is a pervert, and so this is bad product placement...
 
I tried to watch this show, but couldn't get past episode one. Does anyone here like it?
There's an entire thread on off-topic just filled with accolades. What's great about the show(the supporting cast and their stories) doesn't really show until episode three, IMO.
 
I'm hoping it's a decent show. I was a big fan of the early Weeds, and didn't...hate some of the later ones. There was no 3DS in that, though.
 
Don't forget Jonah from Veep.

Everyone's favorite rapist face chillin out on the couch playin 3DS XL like a baller who regularly gets eights (consensually, he might add!)
 
There's a 3DS (actually it may be a DS) featured in a car commercial. A family is about to leave somewhere in the car and almost backs into a child but the car stops him because of its sensors.
 
They had a 3DS on psych for when
Shaun wanted to propose to Juliet,
it bothered me cause they kept on calling it a "DS" and not a 3DS.

Was it an actual (3)DS or was it some pretend 'Funtendo GS'?
 
This show looks so bad.

That shield placement takes the cake though.

Just finished the last episode, I think it's pretty great.

I noticed the 3DS immediately, doesn't seem too bad to me. The character may be a total dick but he's entertaining. At least he wasn't just spamming buttons while it makes generic video game noises.

I'm sooooooo.....so sorry

This the reverse of what you want. At least the commercial itself was slightly less obnoxious than their music.

EDIT: Oh, this is the Bieber commercial. For a second I thought it was the BTR one. Still going to spare my mind the pain of watching it.
