Wii commercial becomes most viewed video on YouTube

Looks like that front page post was worth it! Nintendo’s official Wii commercial received over 670,000 times in just one day. It looks like people couldn’t resist clicking over to check out what the Wii was. I wonder how well an ad like that pulls in new gamers, or people that don’t game at all. I am trying to put myself in the position of someone who doesn’t play games at all, much less heard of the Wii. I think if I saw a commercial that showed someone actually swinging the controller around, it might grab my attention…at least for a few minutes. Thanks to Mister Disco for the heads up.
