Lets compare it to the Japanese version. Cute, light hearted, comical. All you need.

What are you guys talking about. That commercial doesn't inform the viewer about what you do on Miitomo at all. It's only hook is that it's weird and random.
>>
Are they seriously making "Nintendo's first smartphone game" a selling point?
>>
>>332710842
that's all it needs, like every other commercial on western tv nowadays.

Bill Trinen is head of marketing. He is shit as his job and sick in the head. This guy needs to be replaced quick!
>>
>>332709931
>cringy as fuck
That's what makes it good, you fuck. It's beautiful, like a Tim and Eric skit.
>>
>>332710861

Because "From the people who made the Wii U" would be better am I right Famarama?
>>
>>332710842
The girl in the app is saying she'd like to be a pro wrestler. The text on screen then says something like "how well do you really know your friends?" It gets across the main selling point pretty well actually.
>>
>>332710568
Hi DSP
>>
>>332710219
this is the same type of random shit though

>its japanese

oh that explains why you instantly like it
>>
>>332710980
I imagine it's only cringy if you haven't played that game. It's a very apt summary of the app itself.
>>
I don't even want the app for what they made it for, I just want the points for the MN rewards.

Have you not watched TV, Youtube Ads, or the Superbowl since the mid-2000's? Every commercial now is aimed at being "le wacky crazy fun! XD" commercial for teens who love shit like Adventure Time.

Bill Trinen isnt, this fucker is https://www.linkedin.com/in/scott-moffitt-4152b812

Trinen has a specific job that while it involves marketing, it doesnt put him as the head of the entire department.

>>332710936

>He's the head of marketing

No he's Miyamoto's translator

Doug Bowser is Marketing Head

I loved all the DS commercials, partly because I get so much nostalgia from them.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1QLIAOY8bfk

But seriously, just none of these commercials would work today, audiences have to have some le ebic music blasting in the background and people doing wacky and crazy things.
>>
>US advertisement
Shows a deep and connecting viewpoint to the target audience by depicting Miitomo as a platform for free expression of one's own Mii. Comical in nature because the game's definition is just that. The people dress in costumes because that's there true selves as a Mii thus highlighting the customization aspect of the title. It leaves no questions left regarding the product and uses irony like the goth girl being happy with a rainbow in the background.
>Japanese advertisement
Little girls doing little girl things

but hey, it gets a free pass on /v/ because none of us speak Japanese, nor live in Japan and are subject to it's culture or media 24/7, and it has japanese little girls too!

seriously, you /v/ fucks complain so much about how bland america culture is, but as someone who grew up in Japan, everyone there feels the same way about their culture and shit. seriously japan culture sucks dicks. i would rather be american with shit pop music and baggy jeans

All cultures suck, we just get used to ours and realize it's shitty because we live it, that's why other cultures seem more attractive or better, because we don't know the bad things about it.
