Wow, still trucking along with those old games to promote new hardware! I've never seen anything like this before. I mean, the strategy works extremely well for The Big N, so I guess I can't fault them.

My problem is that, it doesn't show off differences between the DSi and the DS. Also, when will we get full games that take advantage of the DSi's unique features.
I just watched these on the Nintendo Channel ...
"W-why am I so smawl?" Proper old man stereotype right there.
The father in this commercial was is currently in another commercial for Verizon Wireless (they guy who poors all the sprinkles on the counter to represent the number of people in Verizon's network).
The reason why they are evergreen is because Nintendo pushes them for years after their release. Why no other company tried this before it beyond me, anf why people haven't caught onto Nintendo immense success with these titles and tried it for themselves is also hard to figure out.
Nintendo has become marketing geniuses.
Nintendo of America really needs to stop promoting their 2005 games. And they really need to add some fresh colors already! That "color wheel" is just fugly as hell!
Rhythm Heaven, Starfy, Pokemon Platinum? They have newer stuff, but that isn't the point of these commercials. There are lots of new DSi owners and Nintendo wants them try out two titles that have been a big hit with other DS owners. MKDS is a great time and lots of people haven't played it yet.
Guess you haven't seen them pushing the said games that Motoki said? I am seeing Starfy commercials all the time. I am seeing Rhythm Heaven on the TVs in line at Wal-Mart for gosh sakes.
I guess I can understand someone saying something about the Wii, but not DS.
