    Nintendo are amazing at appealing to everyone . I mean from a marketing perspective they have done the right thing with the WII . 
    Now if you live in the UK then you must know a pair of z list celebs called Ann and Dec . They feature in the new set of adverts for Nintendo .
     
    Here is a link 
     
    (i don't know if you can see the Ant and Dec ones if your not from the uk) 
     
    Any way back on topic 
    As a Core Nintendo gamer i don't know how to feel  Happy that the company i love is doing so well . Or disappointed becuase they seem to really be concentrating all there energy on "Family" games . 
    But even if you hate Nintendo and think the wii is "suckorz" you must admit Nintendo know what they are doing with advertising . 
    I mean what other company could take something called the Wii and sell billions . 
    Anyway the point of this thread is to get your opinions on Nintendo . Doy uo like how they are doing things . Doy ou hate them ?
     Let me know:)

    Has anyone noticed that in these Ant & Dec adverts Ant & Dec are the wrong way around? In everything Ant & Dec do, Ant is on the left & Dec is on the right, because that's the order their names are. It's Ant & Dec, not Dec & Ant. But in the nintendo adverts, Dec is on the left, Ant is on the right. They're the wrong way round!!!!!!

    nintendo is a company i will always respect, though i'm not a big fan of the wii. the company is doing VERY well and even if they're more appealing to families now, it makes it more accessible so i can play with my family sometimes.
