Pokemon: 20 Years – Super Bowl 2016 Commercial January 25, 2016
Posted by Maniac in Game News.add a comment
Nintendo has just revealed the commercial they plan to air during this year’s Super Bowl. It celebrates twenty years of the beloved Pokémon franchise, and perfectly embodies the spirit of the game, its players, and its enduring legacy. After having seen it, all I have to say is…I am speechless.
In the US, the vast majority of memorable commercials that air during the Super Bowl are produced by companies that sell alcoholic products. Nintendo is poised to defeat them. I don’t think any company will be able to best this commercial.
I defy ANY marketer who may air a commercial during this year’s Super Bowl to produce a better commercial than this one. I honestly don’t think it can be done. The bar has been set very very high.
Marketers, if you haven’t seen this masterpiece on video, you can watch it below.

Along the way, Maniac will not only talk about how the game holds up in comparison to other Halo titles, he will help a commenter fix his controller, give his gripes about the difficulty in finding Halo 5-branded Axe gift packs, and speculate about the story for Halo 6 and Halo 7!

Apple released a minor software update to iOS devices earlier today. The new update, iOS 9.2.1, has been released for iOS 9 compatible iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch devices. The update specifically addresses an issue the OS was having with specific networks, but it also includes minor security fixes.
Depending on your device and the version of iOS your device is running, this update should weigh in between 20-30MB, and can be downloaded either through your device’s internal software update feature, or through iTunes.
Keep in mind this is just a minor update intended for bug fixes and security holes. iOS 9.3, which is poised to be the next major update to the iOS family, is still being tested and currently has no expected release date.
