god it's annoying - these damn slow sites with bloody media player rubbish that screws up cos work imposes a proxy on me. If you find a video and want to post it to digg, check its not on you tube (or google videos) first. - Bob042, on 10/12/2007, -4/+26Since it's a download, I'm just going to assume it's the same one, because it would take ages to DL 36MB from a dying server.
Here's the youtube link, this story is a dupe.

http://www.digg.com/gaming_news/Video_First_Wii_TV_Commercial_for_U_S_Europe - dep01, on 10/12/2007, -2/+15Bet it's not as weird as the PS3 commercials... *shudders*
- UGM2099, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10I think a creepy baby doll would sell the Wii better... oh wait.
- Noelix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4devel...opers much?
- coheedcollapse, on 10/12/2007, -2/+5Was this up earlier today or did I see it somewhere else?
Cool commercial, but I think it went on too long trying to push the fact that "Wii is fun for everyone! Families, old people, hip young people, and hey, even hillbillies!"
Cool that it gives a little bit of an idea of how the Wii uses the wiimote though. - valkyries, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2finally a you tube link
- nandorocker, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1This was totally leaked by the way. It may be taken down any minute, so enjoy while you can! (yes I have insider info! hehehe)
- Quix, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What a great promo! I'd like to see Nintendo air some TV spots based on this.
The thing that stands out the most to me on any Wii-related videos are the looks on the faces of the players. Seeing how much genuine fun they're having makes you want desperately to join in.
This thing will be a huge hit with parents tired of their kids vegging out on the sofa playing mindless slaughter games. - brstilson, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Finally, the dream of the star wars kid will come true.
- drewc1138, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Your work proxies that site, but doesn't proxy YouTube or Google Video? I should be so lucky.
- dongiaconia, on 10/12/2007, -2/+3Here, here!
Alas, If only I could digg your comment more than once, heffer.... - ccanni1028, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1What was the game with the fat guy holding the Wiimote on his hip? (48 seconds into the video)
- Billlbo, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Wario Ware: Smooth Moves. It's one of the mini games. Along with the part with the wiimote on the head and squating up and down.
- rowlodge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0still up not down.
i liked the fake one better..this guy gets carried away during a kung fu fight and kicks everybody ass when they come in. - Guard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Why is this on the front page TWICE?
And no... not just the gaming front page, the main front page.
And on top of that, both inaccurately calling it a TV ad. - Alphateam, on 10/12/2007, -5/+4I've got 4 words to say.
Two handed lightsaber fight. - dj_sea2005, on 10/12/2007, -3/+2What? No freaky crying dolls?
- wally40, on 10/12/2007, -2/+1I wonder if I offer them a chicken if I could get a Wii?
- Xarou, on 10/12/2007, -6/+3Well, seeing how people are describing it, it sounds like it is one that was around earlier. I don't know if it made the front page, but it was definitely floating around the upcoming stories. So, now it's time to play a game, find all the Nintendo items randomly placed
Item to seek:
Bullet Bill
Tri-Force
Fire Flower
Dr. Mario caplets
If there are any more that I missed, please add them to my list. - xxrazor, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2http://duggmirror.com/gaming_news/Wii_TV_Ad_Online/
- sdphost, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1I'm guessing its this video
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=G3rMG4foWC8 - Blah_Blah_Blah, on 10/12/2007, -7/+2"yeah, this isn't a TV Ad, this was a promotional film at a conference Nintendo was at. Nice try."
- artofwar420, on 10/12/2007, -8/+3not that cool.
- cambrown99, on 10/12/2007, -13/+8When the Japanese guys are on their way to the 2nd house, be on the lookout for a street sign with a triforce on it. I'm really liking this spot!
"Wii would like to play" - ryanfelix, on 10/12/2007, -6/+1Down... =(
Wow that was fast.. not even 35 diggs yet... - cbrunet, on 10/12/2007, -10/+3I was totally the person laughing during most of this. Im such a geek.
- wingnut21, on 10/12/2007, -13/+6"Wii would like to play"
I'd say this is the most tasteful pun of the wii's name, and helps get the (phonetically correct) name out.
V Oh, and insert youtube link here. V - Pic0, on 10/12/2007, -8/+1We're currently experiencing some technical difficulties. Apologies for the unexpected downtime. Hopefully we'll have it all sorted out soon!
- The Management - se1zure, on 10/12/2007, -11/+4i think the heart monitor logo thing actually stands for the word "pedo"
ba dum bum dink! i'll be here all week! - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -9/+1Yes, very gay... Wii-tastic!
- FlamingRubber, on 10/12/2007, -10/+2Yeah, I found this Ad before on the GameSpot Forums, it's pretty funny.
