Horribly angled PS3 vs. NES spoof still funny

Oh God...Oh God...I'm not Nintendo bias but Jesus CHRIST that was funny.

What do you mean by "make the PS3 look less fun when compared to 1985's Nintendo Entertainment System." The PS3 IS less fun when compared to 1985's Nintendo Entertainment System:/

You know, Wii Play is pretty much Duck Hunt. And I can't wait to play it. Look at how far we haven't come in 20 years.

@3 Not really. There's only game in there that's like Duck Hunt. The rest is stuff like table tennis, air hockey, fishing, billiards, and a couple Miicentric games.

See, now that's funny. How can anyone not laugh at a house rocketing into space? Or kids jumping around like that?

"As you can see in its oh-so awesome 80s way, Nintendo wasn't always in favor of stationary homes..."

Hahahahaha

why isn't my house rocketing into space now,
has the wii failed me!?

DAMN YOU WII, WHY WON'T YOU ROCKET ME INTO SPACE WITH 80'S ROCK MUSIC!
WHY!!


thats it, gotta bust out the 'ol duck hunt and rocket the hell outta here.

Good lord, it's been ages since I saw that commercial...

PS3 will flop and NES will win the console war.

They should've shown the power glove. Now that would be even funnier!

What did R.O.B. do anyway? I think thats what the name of the robot thing is...

Ah, I remember when my house rocketed off into space. My mom got so mad at me. Ah memories. I was playing with power then.

@ 10

Back around 1984, the market was extremely wary of video games after what happened to the Atari 2600. R.O.B. was created as a marketing ploy developed by Nintendo to fool parents into thinking the NES system was a toy. Of course, it didn't fool the kids, but it sure fooled a lot of parents. XD

Ah, so that's where Commodore got the idea for the levitating house ad.

12: I thought it was more to fool the stores. I don't think the parents cared.

Best advert ive seen in years.

Wow. That IS what it's like to play the NES. Why are people wasting their money on next-gen (or current-gen =) systems when we can all be chillin' in space with ROB the Robot?

wow that was most excellent and true. I mean the NES is more fun than most new systems not to mention the one that sony decided to end their career with.

I *remember* that ad! I was four! Oh, man - it made me want R.O.B. the Robot soooooooo bad.

@SDagger:

the powerglove wasn't made by Nintendo though. =p

great commercial. i remember seeing it on TV in the 80s.

@2
I'm not sure if you meant that sarcastically or seriously. But you know now that I think about it, the NES was a lot more fun than current/next gen systems. I mean I like playing Halo, Gears, and Grand Theft Auto. But remember how much fun it was to just stay up playing the latest Mario iteration? Come on, whenever people ask what your all time favorite game is it's usually something from the NES, Metroid, Zelda, Mario. That is if the person was alive and playing games during that era. Originally the reason "next-gen" was such a big deal and more computing horsepower was so important was because it advanced gameplay. Games were able to be more indepth, new ways to play were made, advancements was to save your game even. Now it seems the only real thing "next-gen" does is make things look better. More "realistic". How about just making us better games!
So yes, long live the NES!

why don't companies make commercials like that anymore? That rocked!!

I want to play with power!

FACT: The NES came with a robot.
FACT: The new Lego Mindstorms kit can build robots.
FACT: The Nintendo Wii supports Bluetooth.
FACT: The new Lego Mindstorms kit *also* supports Bluetooth.

COINCIDENCE? Sweet merciful Christ, I hope not.

@#9, LOL!!!!! Can I buy some of what you're smoking?
Idiot, Sony has owned Nintendo since N64, what makes this Wiitarted system different?
*Fuck Nintendo, and Nintendorks

is ROB a jew? he looked like he was spinning a dreidel...that's pretty cool to know

Wow, Maximus, you sound a little salty. Could it be cuz you spent almost a grand on a PS3 and a few games and are already bored? That's why I named my dick Maximus when Gladiator came out, so choke on my Ninteno fanboy dick while you're waiting for something decent to come out on yet another piece of trash made by Sony.

23. why don't companies make commercials like that anymore? That rocked!!

I want to play with power!

Nintendo DID make a new one. For Wii.

The only thing missing is the "Power" motto. :o

Ahhh, Gyromite. That game was frustating as hell! Like keeping spinning plates on sticks. Wonder why they didn't make more ROB games....

It's good to see Hogan's Alley in that commercial too. Duck Hunt gets all the retro love, but Hogan's Alley was a much better light gun game.

HEY! My house never turned into a rocket ship and blasted off!


This is bullshit! I want my money back!

tisk tisk, TDubby, I though we were here to talk about the Wii and PS3, not about your fantasies of having dick in your mouth, it's ok though, that happens to boys going through puberty. Go off and play with your Wii, the big boys are talking games.

Yeah, better tough up foo'! We be talkin' gamez, yo! Ya wid da big boys holmes, better get smart! Hoo hoo hoo hoo hoo!

Yes. Games. Those things that the big boys talk about.

Maximus, #9 said NES, not Wii. Good job, you just flamed a guy for making a joke.

This was an absolute waste of my time. I am pretty sure I will not be buying a ps3, but this was still lame. I saw the title and i became excited, thought i was in for a comedic treat, not this lame garbage. Filmed some retards playing the ps3, then plugged in a nes ad...
LAME!

LOL, good video. I still remember that old NES commercial from Nintendo and damn, about that PS3 footage...it's not "that" bad, I mean, I have "some" fun when I play it. ;)
