    I made this today. I'm planning on making one for the 360 and PS3 as well. What do you all think?

    That's really good, the only criticism I can make is that I think it would look better to use either all colour images or all black and white in the background. The mixture of the two makes it look a little less coherent.

    I think it's cool.  I'm looking forward to the 360 and PS3 ones you are working on.  It'd be cool if you did a history of gaming in a similar style by using the controller as a focus for reflection.

    Haha. I might have to change the color of it. @PenguinDust said:

    That's a really kickass ad. Nicely done. I especially like the game images in the background.

    It looks really awesome!  Except, I don't think it could really be used for ad purposes because it doesn't really say much about the product and it only has meaning for those that know Nintendo and can recognize all the symbols in that image.

    Well it could be a full page thing. The eye catching image on the front, and then actual game information, snapshots, etc on the other side. Kind of like those pamphlets they sometimes include in game boxes, which are like little books with a cover and then inside game information. Or a 2-page magazine ad, front/back again. Or whatever. It's pretty eye catching.

    The "blood red" thing looks orange and so nothing like blood to me, perhaps it has to do with the given monitor's settings...

    Make toads human peach color white, that'll fix the problem your having with the colored images.  If you do that it will just look like the paint effect colors are coloring the nintendo characters. Its a nice add, 
     
    I like the ball in it, but it doesn't look like it represents football games...  well just because its more of a pool table ball...  Oh wait your talking about the European Football our soccer o.k. i get it  =)      But nice style.
     
    Oh and get rid of the tennis ball it doens't work with the paint colors your using.  Your theme is Black, White, Blue & orangy red, no green.

    Now that would work excellently!

    This actually could work as a magazine advertisement or something. Keep up the good work.

    There appears to be an eye, indicating some gore on the system. Hey, maybe this can convince the 'hardcore."

    In my opinion, there's a little too much going on. The Wii prides itself on being simple and easy for anyone to understand as you can see on their consoles package. Very simple. Also the soccer ball (football) is too prominent.

    The Link shield on the right side looks a little out of place, but other than that everything looks great!

    It's awesome. The only slight suggestion I'd make is that there is a little less emphasis on the football.
