That surely cannot be official!!

Well, it is for America...

That'd surely put more people off the game, it's something that we'd only just accept to see advertising a NES game.

Quite funny though...

Yeah, I downloaded this this morning. Although I couldn't make out what was being said, the music and bloke in the Mario outfit were enough to give off the wiff of 'cheesiness'.

If Nintendo do show that Ad over here, just think of all those MS and PS2 fan-boy's who will use it to fuel their 'GC is a kiddies console' argument. The ad certainly didn't seem to have been aimed at an older audience.

Even the Tweenies theme-tune sounds more grown up!

Great way to lose your reputation Nintendo!

"Clean is better than dirty, dirty is meaner than clean. Lets all lend a helping hand, mario cant do it alone. Use his spray to fly around, and clean the sludge thats on the ground. Super Mario sunshine, only on Nintendo Gamecube."

My god that is the worst advert ever. Whats with the guy in the mario suit.
