haha that is pretty good "jump on your Dad!". NSMBW brings that out of you, recently played it with my brother and we almost resorted to wrestling from frustration of us constantly killing each other. FYI we are 27 and 25 lol

The only thing I don't like is that Nintendo isn't co-advertising for 3rd Party games like I see PS360 doing (Insert obligatory/stupid "there are no 3rd party games" joke here). Why couldn't they have commercials were they play Boom Bloxs or something?

Because Nintendo can support its console with 1st party games alone and Microsoft and Sony can't. I'm not trying to bash those companies but that's just the way it is. But I agree that it would be nice to see Nintendo advertising some 3rd party games in their commercials.

Actually, Nintendo has done that many times before.

Here are the commercials that I have found that feature the bowing Wii logo indicative of Nintendo's nod of approval:

Bakugan.
CoD: World at War.
Sonic amd The Secret Rings
The Conduit
Klonoa
MadWorld
Boom Blox Bash Party
Cooking Mama World Kitchen
MySims Kingdom
NHL 2K9
de Blob
Dragon Quest Swords
NiGHTS Journey of Dreams,
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
Pirates of the Caribbean At World's End

All found here:

(Tiger Woods 10 and Spore Hero both show an ending frame of "EA + Wii," but I am not sure if that counts.)

Ha! I have yet to play NSMBW, but it looks like I should stray from playing with my dad or anyone else I don't want to annoy/get annoyed.

Wish the line was "Son...I am disappoint" instead.

Every time i see it I think it's a Wal-Mart ad that happens to feature the Wii.

Still, parental disappointment is hilarious.
