Nintendo Pushes Wii Party as Way to Pick-Up Girls

[BlindMessiah94]

Bwahahahahahhahh! That was the stupidest thing I've seen in a while!!

OT: So it's Mario Party...but with Mii's? Nintendo has outdone themselves again with originality...

 

[Jaebird]

This is the scenario I have in my mind after reading this article:

"Hey baby. Check this out--"

*flails arms about, socking the girl in the face*

"Oh God! I'm sorry! I am so sorry!! Please, I--Don't call the cops. Please, I'll pay the hospital bill and leave you alone. Just, please!"

 

[_Cake_]

I would still go for the blond guy instead, besides the fact that he`s way more attractive he also seems like more of a gamer. He kicked buddy`s ass.

Speaking as a 'preppy' geek, I'm a little confused here. Which role do I fill?

The asian girl.

 

[Bryan Race]

Was it just me, or did the douchebag boyfriend seem like the quintessential 80's villain?

He was Johnny from Karate Kid. I mean, he's not -actually- Johnny, but he's Johnny.

And while we are at it.. Danny?

Ah, it all makes sense now. Thank you for explaining it. This leaves only one more question - who was phone? where does the DJ fit in the ususal social clique?

Also, it hurts to see how far Fred has fallen since he left Scooby and the gang. He doesn't even have his ascot anymore.

Okay, watching that stupid ad was worth it to have this comment make sense. Bravo, bravo!

 

[Jared]

Well, give it to Nintendo to make crazy advertising campaigns lol

 

[Mr.Pandah]

Funnily enough, an old school-mate of mine is in that commercial. The real geeky looking one with the sweater vest and glasses with the tape in the middle that dances like a fool. haha

I kinda wish more dance parties were like this..._>

The more that I think about it, the one Wii game that propels the commercial's guy-gets-the-girl plot is basically "Hide and go seek the Wiimote." Really? Typically, trying to find the lost remote controller is more of a chore accompanied by cursing and flipping over chairs and sofa cushions, NOT the actual source of entertainment. What other games are there? Run around and find the optimal angle for remote connection? Who did gets to control the volume? Which case did you accidentally switch out that had the good game in it?

There is a "Playing with my Wii" joke to be made here but im the sheer WTF?!! of the advery has wiped my brain.

"Is that a Wiimote in your pocket, or are you just happy to see me?"
"Um... Susan, you're the one hiding the Wiimote..."
Awkward Silence
"Hey Chad, Chad! Um... You win. I lose. You can totally play Wiimotes with... 'Susan'."

Was it just me, or did the douchebag boyfriend seem like the quintessential 80's villain?

He was Johnny from Karate Kid. I mean, he's not -actually- Johnny, but he's Johnny.

And while we are at it.. Danny?

Good call! Maybe Nintendo should have advertised a Karate game instead.

LMFAO

No but seriously, how was the Indian guy geeky? He looked pretty cute, at least from my 15 year old girl perspective. Seriously the supposed jock looked way worse and was way more of a douche. /rambling

The ad's okay. Not going to make me run out and grab a Wii though.

 

[Brotherofwill]

Lot's of dark humour in the OP, I love it.



2:03 OMG. Think of the injuries! Think of the injuries!
I can see a few lawsuits heading Nintendo's way soon. Anyway, this was probably the most 'American' thing I've seen in a long time.

Wiis aren't that bad to have at party's though. This game could work in that situation.

the geek's Wii Party skills help him win over his future wife.

Length of relationship based on method of getting to know the girl:

Met durring shared hobby > Met on holidays > Met in a disco > Met in a bar > Met on the internet > Met in a back alley > Met while playing Wii Party.

Let's see the Japanese version of this.

Funnily enough, an old school-mate of mine is in that commercial. The real geeky looking one with the sweater vest and glasses with the tape in the middle that dances like a fool. haha

Your old mate is the awesome geeky guy? He was the life of the party! He needs to come to my parties...

In that case I would like to push WoW as a way to pick up girls. Seeing as how I met my girlfriend there.

Seriously though, a Nintendo Wii does not impress a girl, it usually takes a different kind of Wii for that.

Im still waiting for a 40 dollar wiimote attachment that will help me excavate my wii from the petrified dust tomb it is currently housed in. These party games always suck and fizzle out, as a gamer who has seen it all through nearly the whole span of gaming evolution I just don't think anything at all will put a pulse back into that thing.

 

[the_bearpelt]

While I am NOT a party person, what I find funny is that the party looks more fun than the game. rofl

 

[Magnalian]

I guess Nintendo is trying to say that men with Wii Party skills will beat out those with superior looks, sweaters worn over collared shirts, and pent-up anger any day.

Huh. Well, I have none of those things. If this truly is the case, then my chances of ever getting a girlfriendd are well & truly f*cked according to Nintendo.

Well then this is the game for you! Once they see your Hide-n-Seek-a-Wiimote skills, no woman could possibly resist your charms! Here's how to order:
