Video: Japanese Ninja Gaiden II marketing
Being the rather "meh" Thursday that it is, we couldn't help but share with you a Japanese Ninja Gaiden II commercial that we just came across. A commercial that will make you raise an eyebrow in confusion due to the fact that it does not transcend the cultural void. Just watch the embedded video above and just try to tell yourself that you don't want to play a game that'll make you moan like a moose in heat, distort your face in pain or make you squeal like a sugar high eight year old. Oh yes, Japanese commercials sure are "interesting".

That's what works. This is how advs are in Jap. They are just not accepting the 360.
Japs are some crazy people. They are weird.

Wii's idea:
Show as little gameplay as possible just show people smiling in rooms of white.
