If that's the same thing as this (which I still can't see at my job)

I saw this a few days ago on G4. It was an interesting parody.

That was negative publicity for the Wii anyway, and a rip-off of an already retarded Mac vs PC ad.

How do you mean? Will the feminists loath it?

No, it makes the Wii seem slutty.

It's not a ripoff, it's a parody. And it compares the PS3 to an overbearing viking. :P

Slut or an overweight girl. Hmm. Hard choice.

Ehmm.. ok. One might look at it that way.

I'd rather say it makes the Wii look sexy.

That PS3 wasn't just "overweight." She was a superbitch. HAVE YOU EVEN HEARD OF BLURAY?!?! IT'S THE FUTURE!!!:mad2:

I'm pretty sure that's not an official commercial, anyway. I think it was just something G4 put together.

It indeed is. You can tell because Kevin said Nintendo teamed up with Apple before they showed the "Exclusive Commercial". :shifty:

Didn't really think it was an official ad. First, it's very un-nintendo, second, your're not allowed to do anti-advertisement for an opponent like that.

I personally found this parody commercial as a mock of the mac commercials. However, I do feel it pays more attention to the "Wii" than it does to the "PS3" which is pretty annoying. Also, the Wii isn't just a slut, but a cheap one too!

In order to be a proper parody of those commercials, it has to hype one up while tearing one down.

This parody is just out to show the Wii is more fun and " better " than the PS3. I dont see why people are jumping the gun, who said the Wii is more fun ?

I wouldnt say that this is pro Nintendo either, the person behind this parody dosent realise that he has made the Wii seem like a simple dumb witted slut. Smack your ass at me all you want, I'd rather have a chat with a PS3 thanks....

You are allowed to do anti advertisement as long as everything said is true. So technically this could be an official ad.

As for the Wii looking slutty... well it kinda is. I mean think about the Wii. It has access to games for EVERY nintendo console. Just imagine how much use that is, that's kinda slutty. It can accept two different size discs, big or small, so she adaps to the size, kinda like a slut, I'm sure a GC disc will feel that it's rather "loose" inside the Wii.

It can also use so many different controllers and other add on toys, and you know those sluts love those toys.

I know perverted post, but c'mon, the Wii is awesome

Looked like this was bashing on them both to me. Wii is a cheap slut, and PS3 is an overconfident egotistical bitch. Great.

I couldn't have put it better myself. That is, if I was getting any of them at all... :up: Good call.

It is to some people. Not to me, I'd buy a Mac, but if I played a lot of computer games, I'd stick with a PC.

Mac's are better in general, they make better applications, easier to use etc.

Gaming is the exception, I use my laptop for that :)

Macs have their own problems, like security issues.

You know, I'm still getin the PS3. I can play the Wii whenever the smurf I want by going to my friend's house when he gets it for Christmas. Can't stand the controller.

EDIT: Oh, yeah. I can't believe Nintendo can get away with making a commercial like that.

You're awfully defensive. And gaming is a huge deal to a lot of people when it comes to PCs.


Do people really think that's a real commercial? Geeze. You guys do know that in this era of Interweb Streaming Video, anyone is able to make their own parody and put it up, right? Nintendo would at least put a little more quality into a commercial if they made it like that.

When the whole Mac Vs PC discussion arrises all PC users say Mac's cant play games, and pretty much stop there. Other than gaming, PC users have nothing to say towards a Mac. They make gaming to be such an advantage, like it means everything.

Actually, I used to work on PC's and Mac's for my audio engineering and graphic design when I was studying. And I found little to no difference in the hardware or software other than I can find my way around Windows easier.

And the parody's are funny, as long as you take them with a grain of salt. ;D

Also the Macbook Pro's are a horrible piece of hardware, that I'd rather not burn my legs with. ASUS builds ftw.
