less. This game was marketed awfully, this commercial screams baby game and it played everywhere.

I can't believe I used to collect this shit when I was younger. The idea of having obscure Smash characters that would never ever get merch was so cool to me.

The first amiibo one is kino, it's so dumb and cringey that it wraps back around to being unironically funny to me.
Jackson Garcia
because it is a baby game. you are a manchild and are upset about being reminded
Brandon Parker
No, this had incredible meme inertia and definitely helped sell the game

Nah, I actually fucking hate Splatoon and anyone who is still playing this shit. It was marketed as a baby game but is played by dudes in their 20s. That's why its a terrible commercial, besides the cringe lyrics.

What were they thinking?
>Level 5
They weren't thinking at all
Samuel Hughes
It's a nut, you can play, outside.
Isaiah Garcia
OP said modern you illiterate retard.
Eli Edwards
im okay with either, whatever keeps the thread rolling
Carter Howard
There's a graph out that shows Splatoon is played mostly by girls in their 20s. You don't have to lie.
Brody Richardson
>worst
The fact that you and I and everyone else remembers this commercial shows it wasn't the worst. I remember people shitposting
>YOURE A KID NOW
>YOURE A SQUID NOW
all the time, it was very effective marketing.
Leo Gray
this is some sakuracon tier shit

Probably up there with Nintendo's earliest commercials. If they had gone as far as having some retarded kid bouncing around and actually turning into a squid it would have surpassed the Link Rap and the SM64 green screen shit
I still wonder if that Smash Bros commercial would fly nowadays

You don't fucking know how bad game ads can get.

Splatoons biggest marketing mistake is that it advertised itself as a game for little kids but is a competitive shooter that expects the user to understand fashion and what Shibuya terminal is
Hunter Clark
80s* sorry.

>Our game system is failing, boss! We need to market it better! Any ideas?
>*Zach Hadel voice* Yeah uhhh make a commercial showing a greasy half naked single guy vomiting diarrhea in his apartment and then ripping his own spinal cord out his mouth before beating himself to death with it
>.... Anything else, boss?
>Uhhh I don't fucking know make him rant like Angry Joe Show would I don't really care do you guys like Bojack Horseman?
Jonathan Turner
This is the biggest cope I've heard from a Splatoon player in a while. Also, see
Brody Ortiz
>but is played by dudes in their 20s.
It's played by children, retard.

>3ds/wiiu era of ads
i had completely sealed off this shitshow from my memory.
its the kind of bad that isn't even funny
Joseph Roberts
Huh. I never even knew “you’re a kid now you’re a squid now” was from something
Dominic Roberts
You severely underestimate the average age of the average Nintendo fan. Especially ones that play Splatoon. There is literal esports tournaments sponsored by Nintendo with competitive players in their 20s.

In the advertising world that's literally the best thing you could ever say about a slogan. The less you know about the source of a marketing campaign the better, ironically
