No fancy pants graphics. No celeb cameos. And yet, this is one of the most effective commercials for a video game console ever. Wii!

Thats because it is not a comercial it's a music video!
Also look at how it is coreographed
it embodes the spirit of movement that is the essence of the wii-mote
Every Littel thing in the video reminds you of the makers origins
as most good advertising should do.
It starts off with a reminder
That nintendo was once a stranger in a strange land
The car does that well Samrts are rare here
The fact the Wii used Japanse men reminds us that these are japanese people bringng their technology over here.
A subtle reminder of Nitendos first apperance
Then look at the bullet on the side of the car.
Who does not rember playing the original Mario brothers in 1985?
Now look at how the bullet looks like it was inspired by the door handel of the car.
This piece of work deserves an award hands down!
And don't forget the cow I love the cow
It to reminds us that East meats West
What is more west that a COW!
Look at how th girl is dresses, she has a j pop look
It says that the children of America have allredy been influenced by the Nintendo culture!
It really is genius. It really shows how there trying to target everyone, not just gamers or even just teenagers.
what was wrong with my coment!
