Wood is totally right, a lot of ads are fake these days, just adding celebs for marketing purposes. IMO, it kinda stains/hurts nintendo when you have to show celebs to attract audiences. I think it is a lot more profitable if you had actual youtube gamers, vtubers, or just regular people having genuine fun. Ads are just a turn off nowadays.
@hippieduck 2 жыл бұрын
Ads have (mostly) always been fake, ever since they became a thing. It's simply seduction and persuation (in some cases coercion) Into buying things we "didn't know we needed or wanted". Marketing 101. "These days" are not different from "the old days." Celebrities or religious figures (influential, powerful people and associations etc) have always been used as a way to lure people into buying (into) stuff and to make sacrifices (to the seller) to gain access to it. You put the soap box where there's people circulating; doesn't matter if it's on KZfaq 2022, or in the street a couple of thousand years ago. Ads will always be redundant and misleading. If they don't seem to be and truly make you want a thing, I'd start questioning if that's actually a good thing. Consumerism 101.
@dianaburn2474 2 жыл бұрын
I agree the ads are annoying, but they likely aren't targeted at people like us. They're targeting general audiences. You put streamers or youtubers in, and general audiences likely won't recognize them. However, regular celebrities are more well known, hence the decision.

Using celebs to make the switch feel more like a “family friendly” console (which is what it is) makes sense as it’s something that many companies have been doing since the beginning of time. They want to continue to separate themselves from the FPS gamers and consoles that just rely on gameplay to make sales and don’t need a celeb for the parent to know what console is best suited to give their child (I’m talking pre-teen here). I also think they’re all geared towards parents to let them see a way to connect and play with their kids/family in a way that the other consoles can’t especially when kids are involved. Looking at them from this POV for who is supposed to be watching these commercials and then maybe buying Switch? It works. Lastly, the use of Ring Fit in those three likely sold them more Switches among women looking to stay fit with a cheaper option than Peloton during these times than anything else and why it was used so often as well…

So what you say is that those ads are made for parents that have little to no connection to gaming to think it's a happy family-friendly thing to indulge into instead of the public opinion of old people that gaming will make you a serial killer with no friends.

It was made even worse because the movie Captain Marvel wasn't great, in my opinion due to bad writing/directing, and it was following Avengers Infinity War.

Normally love your videos, but this one seemed a little off. Hard to put my finger on it, but of course their commercials are going to be scripted and celebrity endorsements are nothing new either. Also the mobile game ad before this video in particular is a bit hypocritical. These commercials fit in very well with their "fun for the whole family" branding, not saying they're great commercials though. This whole video just seems... unnecessary? Maybe I'm being too cynical about you being too cynical, but just wanted to put my thoughts out there.

While I think it would be cool, as a fan, to have you in a commercial for the Switch, marketing wise it makes no sense. Because the only people who would appreciate having you in a Switch commercial are people who already own and play Switches, and already actively recommend Switches to other people. These commercials are obviously trying to convert non-gamers and casuals to be like, hey it's a really good idea if you want to stay connected with your friends, have something in common with your kids for bonding time, or if you want to stay fit.

I'm super sure they made the VFX on After Effects, those motion blur applied on the moving Switch's screen are After's specialty... and pretty sure too the dad in front of the screen was a rotoscoped mask in a copy-pasted layer over the rest of the footage. I've been making tv/internet ads for almost 4 years now so yeah, we use those techniques a lot with over-imposed screens a lot lol

Christina and Bri were the most believable....but honestly....who are these ads targeted towards? I bought a switch after 4 years of it being out and never saw an ad for it. Also I kinda doubt kids care for the opinions of NPH or Xtina or Bri....get Doja Cat or Pete Davidson or Ariana Grande to do an ad.
@ThePunisherSpider 2 жыл бұрын
Probably targeted to parents, in an effort to be "you can buy a switch, play with your kids and connect with them". The ones with Christina focus on her role as a mom and her being away working, so probably it's targeted more towards parents.

@@nicolasroy8481 Don't get me wrong, you can't tell everyhing, but you don't need to be able to understand or fully understand a language to hear things like tone, inflection or mood in a voice. For example if someone is stressed or excited, the way they speak changes; and a lot of these changes are pretty universal; so you can kinda pick out if someone is enthusiastic, sarcastic, excited etc from tone, even if you cannot understand the words. A lot of dubs suffer from more of a flat delivery; you've also got the fact that most Japanese voice overs are recorded with the Voice Actors in one room with the video or cues etc showing in front of them, so they genunely are responding to each other, the scene etc, and that comes across in the delivery, timing and recordings; whereas in Western dubbing, most dubs take place solo with the voice actors recording seperately, so you lose that level of direct interaction and responsiveness and reactivity between the voice actors. It can be quite noticeable at times. There ARE some excellent dubs, but in this regards, Japan generally just does it better due to the way they tend to record, and it results in more natural and fluid sounding voice acting and dialogue/word play.
