God knows what Nintendo’s marketing strategy is. My guess is that it involves picking a group that couldn’t give a rat’s ass about gaming, and then try and get them to buy their stuff. I guess it works for them, but it really does seem weird. Their latest strategy is to let customer’s at Toni & Guy’s flagship hairdressing salon in Paddington in Sydney play the DSi while they get their hair done.
The promotion – if you can even call it that – is running from today to November 30, and includes the ability to check out the DSi hardware, as well as some of the latest games, while some guy does your hair and charges you a small fortune for the privilege. Somehow I don’t think many of you guys will be checking this out, but if you do, let us know if it was worth it…
