Nintendo shakes up YouTube

Some of the most successful advertising campaigns in history have utilised the medium creatively to further enhance the message; the medium becomes the message.

Nintendo took the digital lead here by rearranging a YouTube page to launch a video for the game ‘Wario Land; Shake It’. The ‘shaking’ causes the footage to ‘escape’ from the viewer into the whole YouTube screen page. Clear message, great creative, effective product communication.

    Hahaha, Love it. Would like to know how they got the Youtube page to start collapsing!

    :) that is really funny, and very well-done, after the video is finished, you can play with the elements on the page and move them around, the cool thing is they are all still functional
