That was...OK. Some of the factors that was put in that "commercial" can work for it, such as stating the abilities and the gameplay footages used, but I don't see the type of bl antant advertising against other consoles that SEGA had used in the day being too suitable for the TurboGrafx-16. Sure there was the advertisement that had compared the graphic sizes from the NES game of The Kung Fu, but it was stating more as if it were a "step-up", not as if Nintendo was a loser or something similar. "Now the average Joe could be a ninja" wouldn't really do, either, as there were other ninja games available at the time such as Ninja Gaiden, and the phrases "Jump high. Throw ninja stars. Create clones. Fight gigantic bosses." could be made more exciting, as well. They would be more properly replaced with those such as "Now you can experience ninja abilities in TURBO ACTION!" and "It's you against a plethora of ninjas and gigantic foes with you being armed with powerful swords, throwing stars, and even clones (all whilst speaking very fast)!" Also, I wouldn't recommend stating what console it was for too soon; its best to wait for the viewers to get riled up about the game before knowing what it's available for
.
I could think of a bunch of ideas of what the advertisement for Ninja Spirit could be, including kids walking into the room seeing the powerful console in play with the TurboChip (probably worst-case scenario, but similar to the other commercials for it), and even pure gameplay before announcing about the game. Heck, they could even throw in a white wolf howling and explain the story a little if it was needed.
