The most Risque Nintendo commercial ever

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008 at 5:43pm by Will

What you are about to see is by far one of the most risque Nintendo commercials ever released on TV. It was released for one of the most notorious mature rated N64 games, that was developed by Rare. I have to say you will never see a commercial like this on TV again with Nintendo logo following suit after.

Whoever said Nintendo was a kiddy company never saw this I would have to say.

  4. deepthought says...

    hahaha- i think i remember seeing that or part of it on tv back in the day.

  5. Atlantis1982 says...

    I seen this before, back in the day.

    Effing amazing. I swear, I would love to see a new Conker on 360. (cause Rare’s with Microsoft.)

  7. KillerHeroes says...

    I knew it was for Conker.

  8. Roddy says...

    Same here, KillerHeroes. And Conker ROCKS. It was one heck of a great, funny game!

  9. Joltman says...

    Wow. I don’t think I’ve seen that commercial – wonder where it was aired back then?

    I loved this game also. So many hours playing capture the flag. It was awesome. I would love to see this come to the VC. I know it’s unlikely, but I can still hope.

    That was really funny, but I don’t imagine it lasted on TV for too long. ;D

    I have Conker on my N64, but I haven’t played it for too long. I’m cool with mature-rated games, but that one is, quite honestly, too immature for my taste.

    GREAT commercial.

    @ Dfox The Rare that is with Microsoft is not the Rare that we fondly remember. The Conker game they made for the original xbox, reloaded or whatever it was called, well it wasn’t that great.

    @Joltman

    It was at least aired here in Holland. Figures. :P

  15. InvisibleMan says...

    I thought Reloaded was the same game, with some added content…

    Anyway, I had seen that commercial, thought it was hillarious! The game, however, is not “mature” in the true meaning of the word… more, like, prepubescent.

    There is definitely a vast gap between the mental image that the ratings comission has about kids and the reality of what kids know in this country!

  16. LocoTank says...

    I think it was “mature” enough at the time. This game rocks!! I never played it on the N64, but I did play the ROM and regretted not having bought it when it came out.

  17. Paul 2 (since there is now more than one) says...

    That’s cause Rare are from the UK and they aren’t puritans.

  18. joe davis says...

    Now I know why my parents wouldn’t let me buy it.

  19. Jonkind says...

    Hey Kotaku picked up on this post and credited Infendo… nice!
