And when you get to the studio, having make-up and wardrobe people watch you play Zelda is entertaining for everyone.

Our own Mike Fahey said that the Switch’s big Super Bowl ad showed the console the way he was hoping to see it. These ads will probably do the exact same for you.

Because these commercials sure do make the Switch relatable. Thank goodness for that!

In all seriousness, I understand that Nintendo was trying to explain the Switch’s different modes by using a celebrity to sell the thing. 

The multiplayer Japanese Switch ad is well done.
