Nintendo TV Ad Shows What Wii Christmas is Like
Happy Wii Holidays.
Ah, Christmas. It's a time of year where family must gather, whether they like it or not. It's a time for togetherness, sharing, and other sort of things families are supposed to do.
Nintendo would like to remind all of us that a Wii would be great for everyone around this festive time of year. While it may not be the perfect solution for those dreading the holidays, it shows how well the Wii is able to bring everyone together.

What's the point of this article? advertising wii?
Telling us Nintendo has a new ad? Bleh.
Speaking from experience, many family members would rather do other things rather than play with the Wii.
Plus don't forget during the Holidays, watching the big game on TV takes precedence over playing with a game console.
I just love the stupidity of comments around here... First people complain that some articles are not "techy" enough, and when an article involves technology then they complain that it doesn't fit their flower influenced lifestyle... if you can do better, why don't you write? Better yet, why don't you stop bitching about something (article) that is handed to you free of charge... if you don't like it... don't freaking read it.
@livingcrazy: why don't you stop bitching yourself? to find out if you like or dislike is AFTER you read it. Free of charge? um yes it's free, what you pay $1 to go to yahoo news? why don't I write? hm so if I don't like how a car drives, maybe I should build my own car? your comment is stupid.

I don't have much problem with the so called news, it's just that I have a problem with the stupid ad and the 3/4 of the Wii games. There are some good games like Brawl and Metroid, but the rest of the Wii games are cr@p, and people still buy it.
Wow slow news day talking about an outdated garbage console that any tom,dick or harry can pick up. Get real! If it dont cost over $300+ I dont want to hear about it, save this type of news for the disney sites!
How about you stfu and click more selectively from now on?
How about you shut the FUCK up, bitch? I click because I thought Nintendo makes a christmas-y skin for wii, not a fucking ad.
I'd like to see the deleted scenes, where the family murders each other after a heated argument gets out of hand, cause thats what it looks like it was heading towards.

it's not entirely free of charge, there is advertising.

"Sleim" - You've been a member for less than 2 weeks and this is what's your comments have become? Try to be a little more mature.
gay...
The article title says - NINTENDO TV AD
to all the dickbrains who want to complain, read a little harder. It says
---------- TV AD -----------
what did you expect?
And for those who haven't gotten the memo yet, dissing the Wii is no longer a requirement for getting your "hardcore gamerz fanboi" card renewed.
I was thinking of getting a wii, but it can't play Crysis.
I've been a member since 2007, just recently used a different username.
@rawoysters: hey who said stfu first, not I.
@blackmancer: I expect they advertise a new wii skin.

While I agree that the ad is a bit cheesy and that most wii games suck, the ability to play all the old school games from previous nintendo systems makes the wii worth the buy, for me anyway.

boohoo

You'll shoot yer eye out, kid.
What I really can't stand, is the people who complain about the people who complain about the people, who complained about the story. That's just piling on.
Boy that advertisement was so great that I was halfway to Best Buy before I thought to myself... "Wow that crazy advertisement had me going out and buying a Wii".
Crazy Nintendo advertisements... crazy crazy... you almost had me... sigh - yup... almost.

You gotta ask yourself then, why ARE people buying it? It doesn't do HD, doesn't play BluRay, etc. but people STILL buy it...could it be because it appeals to a whole new set of game players other than then hardcore fanatics?
You can keep railing against Nintendo, but they realized long ago, that if they can appeal to the casual gamer (and even bring new gamers into the fold) they'ld be rolling in the $$$. Think about it. My 5 yr old can play Mario Kart relatively well - she doesn't win the race or anything but she has fun doing it; what game on the XBox or PlayStation would she have as much fun with?
I'm a hardcore gamer, but I still had a blast playing Wii with my fiancee's family on X-mas eve. Brought everybody together for a couple hours of fun.
Just my $.02 though.

People are buying them because Nintendo has ALWAYS had the best GAMEPLAY of any other system EVER.
There are a lot of systems out there with wicked mint graphics and all but the gameplay is the same as always, run-duck-shoot-kill repeat...
I love 1st person shooters and all but where are the Tetris-like games? the games that use can play for weeks and be totaly into it and the graphics don't matter? like when super mario bros came out?
Well in my opinion nintendo is superior when it comes to fun factor and ease of play. How many games on other systems can say yes to both? I know PC, 360, PS3 all have far more superior graphics but all of those are collecting dust in my household while everyone gathers around the Wii to play easy to pick up goofy games that show not too much gore, and are overall fun... that is the reason why I bought Wii and will continue buying games for it... its just fun for the family.
