Has anyone seen the Mario Sunshine commercial? If so, what do you think about it?

If you take into consideration that the entire commercial seems to be making fun of "kiddiness", then it's not all that bad.

It really doesn't seem they are trying to bash 'kiddieness, but going along with it.

Mario holding hands with 5 year olds and blasting off is not my thang.

It's just so bleeping silly, I don't know how anyone could take it seriously as a 'kiddie' commercial.
It's obviously self-depricating humor.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

lol...

Just saw it for the first time... That was cute. Mario's gotten taller, I see...

Don't know why, but it makes me think of the 80's. Anybody remember that old commercial for Mario Bros?

"Something's gumming up the plumbing,
Poor Luigi's in a bind,
Giant turtles out to get him
Creepy crabs are close behind
Fighter flies, jeepers jipes, something's coming out the pipes!

Maaaaaaaaaaaaaaario where aaaare you?!"

That was cooler than this, but this one was funny anyway. I'm just concerned. Parody or not, that commercial may not have been a very good strategic move for Nintendo's image...

SMB3's famous 'Worldwide' commercial topped 'em all, though. It was optimistic AND cool. The best thing about it though, was that Nintendo didn't NEED the commercial to sell it. The commercial pretty much just let everyone know it was here. Heh.

The craziest part is that people have actually boycotted the game after they saw the commercial because they were too embarassed to be seen playing it.

This next one takes the cake. Somebody on a Gamefaqs message board actually boycotted SMS because Yoshi appears to be barfing in one of his new attacks. I think he was actually spitting some kind of juice.
