New Zelda Ad Stars Robin Williams and his Daughter Zelda

[Fappy]

Robin Williams is a god among men. Good commercial too.

What the hell is he thinking with that beard?!

 

[synobal]

The Beard is pretty epic. Zelda is hot, and seems to genuinely like the game. That said I don't really enjoy the little sequences where they are laughing at the game together it feels sort of creepy and forced.

I was just going to post the same thing XD

 

[CrystalShadow]

He named his daughter Zelda?
Right...

Other than that, pretty good ad. Nice and personal which is what Nintendo likes to portray themselves as.

Is that sarcasm? Because it's a pretty well known fact that Robin Williams did indeed name his daughter Zelda.

He's done stand-up comedy routines about it (quite a while back), and mentioned it on numerous occasions over quite a long period of time.

I know it seems a bit suspicious in the context of an ad like this, but that implies the ad is a setup, when it's more accurate to say it's exploiting a well known thing about Robin William and his daughter.

.. I feel no shame in saying one thing: D'aw.

I love how genuine and wistful his narration is. He's the Morgan Freeman of bedtime stories.

No no. I think Morgan Freeman is the Morgan Freeman of bedtime stories.
Robin Williams is the Robin Williams of bedtime stories.
Their only similarities are that they are both awesome, and are both good at bedtime stories.

Whats even cooler is that she PLAYS video games, and her favorite LOZ game is Majora's Mask!

Wait Wait Wait....She's my age...

That was nice. Way to use your fans at your advantage Nintendo.

We need more celebrity game endorsements that don't come of as cheap crap.

Nice job.

Sadly, it seems the only good games that are coming out for the 3DS are ports of other great games.

Kid Icarus,

Kingdom Hearts,

Paper Mario,

Admittedly all sequels, but still... KID ICARUS


Anyway, loved that ad. Very personal and nostalgic. I may just pick up this port if for no other reason than the nice looking graphics, even if I already have OoT in like 4 different versions :X

When I see him. I think
"It's dangerous to go alone. Take this."

 

[Radoh]

That was really cute. Also I didn't know that magnificent man had such a magnificent beard attached to that magnificent face of his. Seriously though, d'awwwwww...

 

[JWRosser]

What a legend.
And that beard!

 

[gamefreakbsp]

That was more than a little touching. I always did like Robin Williams. Good stuff Nintendo!
