Last year, Nintendo got the likes of Liv Tyler, Nicole Kidman and other female celebrities to promote the Nintendo DS. While those ads did nothing for non-casual gamers, it did at least get the point across that the DS can be accessible to anyone.
This year, Nintendo has started a new promotional campaign staring Fred Willard, one of the Bob's from Office Space and a few other actors that may or may not really be Fred Willard's friends in real life to promote the DS and Personal Trainer: Cooking. This seven-minute long ad is full of awkward jokes, cringe worthy moments and some real bad acting.
