Great piece of viral work. I think it really shows the versatility of a platform like YouTube as a way to cleverly yet effectively communicate a message.

Well played, Nintendo. Well played.

That was amazing! I've never seen the background of a youtube vid be affected like that. I'm actually interested in the title lol, i was going to pass this up!

Nintendo's always done great non-traditional advertising, imo

Makes up for the lack of traditional advertising they do, at least.

Great gimmick, that was a fun surprise. As for the game, it reminds me of old-school Sonic. And that is a very, very good thing.

The video stopped loading around the submarine part (though it seemed to kick in a bit right around/after I hit refresh, little wanker). the tag has "experiencewii's channel" on it, but the vid was posted by "MinusLand", and furthermore wasn't on a channel, so I was a bit confused. Sad that I can't favorite it, but whatever. Neat that YouTube's hosting this thing (which it's gotta be, Drzzt, since the URL and use of my login information, despite the comments section saying to login, woud have to have come from YouTube's database... or some jargon like that).

if for you, like me, the video on the page wouldn't load...

...kinda gives away the surprise, but most of the posts here give it away anyway.
