as usual they overdo the motions. You dont need to play like that. Still a pretty cool commerical.

but they have to advertise the games that way. It will be boring to looks at people in commercials just slightly moving their wrists

Uh I guess. Atleast it was better than ubisoft's earlier trailers.

My friend said he saw one for the actual Wii hardware. He said something about Wii Sports i think( Or someone was holding the Wiimote as a tennis racket, I forget)

I hope every Wii commercial tells you how crappy you are at playing video games.

NAY. THOU SHALT SUCK"

Heh - that's one of my favorite videogame commercials to date.

It was a good commercial until that "OR WILST THOU SUCK" thing hit. And then the rest of it should've been set to Gary Jules. It was that bad.

Oh, come on - back when that trailer first hit, everyone was going NUTS over it.

:lol

I like it, for what it is. Honestly though...it reminds me of the old Nintendo goofy commercials. 15 years from now we'll look back on this and be slightly embarassed.

They keep showing of the feature that you can hold your gun sideways. Big whoop...
Dont under-estimate the "gangsta" wannabees out there.


It could, crazu as it sounds, be a big selling feature...

Not bad. Not great, but not bad. The Wii wound effect is...odd? I don't know. Doesn't match the image of the system, I guess. Least in my head.

Doesnt really sound crazy to me, Casual gamers love that 'gangsta' schick (sic). Thats why GTA sells 200 million copies

That's the same sound (and animation) that Nintendo used in their initial unveiling of the Wii controller. So why doesn't it match the system?

They switched something under the hood
