Dang guys. How could you bring up celebrities and Nintendo without bringing up the commercial with Robin and Zelda Williams? That was legendary.
Those were amazing. Greatest Zelda commercial of all time.
Beyoncé awkwardly playing rhythm heaven 😭
Kit and Krysta talking about Sabrina Carpenter was not on my bingo card 😭
Did NOT know Sabrina went that far back with Nintendo. I got a copy of Disney Art Academy for review as a Nintendo Partner back in the day
Paul Rudd was in that 90s SNES commercial... Nintendo knows what's up 😂
She likes Mountain Dew, Nintendo, and a gamer, that is pretty cool to see celebrities express these things in a respectful and fun manner, I never heard of Sabrina before, but I already have a positive outlook on her very much and a lot of respect to her, same could be said for any celebrity no matter their gender, it's just fun and relatable and they seem like a general good person.
Christina Aguilera worked with Nintendo too, a lot of times. ❤
She should’ve made a song about her favorite Nintendo games.
Also she celebrated with her family for the premiere of The Super Mario Bros. Movie.
I also wonder what they think about Cardi B referencing Mario with “grab my coins like Mario.” Shes not the most family friendly 😂
Sabrina isn't family friendly, either. Have you read the lyrics of her songs?
@@SkiesTurnedGrey nah i only found out about her thru the coffee song, but she seems way more classier than trashy b
The lyrics of Espresso itself is not the most family friendly of all either
Wait until Brewster is wearing her t-shirt. 🦉
When I heard Espresso, it was on a random playlist I was listening to on Spotify, and I instantly loved it!
Alessia Cara wrote a whole song called "Nintendo Game" a few years back. All the lyrics are themed around various Nintendo games and gaming in general.
She’s a bit of a flop. She’s talented though.
@@no89lan3Wow.
Jayden Bartels also wrote a song called “Gameboy” which made me think of Gameboy games.
They also had Paul Rudd in a SNES advert and Joe Keery in an amiibo ad before they got big through Stranger Things, super cool stuff
I heard nintendo in the lyrics long ago, but it wasn't until now I understood the Switch it up part 😭
I constantly think about Notorious BIG starting out his verse with “Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis.
When I was dead broke, man, I couldn't picture this”.
Or Mike Jones saying “Blowin' on that indo', GameCube, Nintendo Five percent tint so you can't see up in my window”
Legendary moments in time.
Had to be there
2:47 I immediately thought of Drake Bell in the Gameboy Color Pokémon commercial
I'm thinking they try using a clip of this lyric and a switch ad! That would be cool.
It makes all the sense
omg i’d love that
As interesting as that would be it won't happen. Nintendo is pretty strict with their music and celebrity choice. Sebrena is not necessarily family friendly and the line in question is an obvious innuedo. Not to mention the entire song's theme.
@@ethanhaynes7406maybe in 2 years when Sabrina matures up and becomes family friendly
@@ethanhaynes7406 Good point, thought about it but I'd hope they just have a no vocal version or low vocal version and have the "Switch It Up" line at the end. But they won't.
What I’d like to know is how Nintendo feels about the “Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis, when I was dead broke man I couldn’t picture this” line in Juicy by Notorious BIG
I remember someone asked this in one of your Q&A's, glad you decided to expand that into a new video :D
Ed Sheeran and Katy Perry both collaborated with The Pokémon Company to create “Electric” and “Celestial”. Now that’s something that a music lover celebrates their love of video games.
Stretch to think the “up, down, left, right” might be a subtle Konami code nod?😄
LOL what a sugar hearted way to see it, to the real meaning of that lyrics💀
I’ve been wanting to ask you this question since I first heard the lyric so glad you covered it!
It’s hilarious that I was just thinking about today what Nintendo might think of that bar 😂
thank you for this video! I find these sorts of discussions so interesting (it helps that I am both a huge Nintendo fan and a huge Sabrina fan😊)
I can’t believe it!!! I was gonna make this question to you guys for one of your podcasts hahah
I'd like to give a shout out to Slim Thug of Houston Texas 🙏 one of his early songs "still tippen' has the lyrics "blowing on the endo, GameCube Nintendo, five percent tint, so you can't see up in my window." Obviously this was way back in the GameCube era and isn't family friendly 😂 but it's an absolute houston classic ❤
I remember that one 😂
I loved this song back in the day, and didn't pick up on this! I feel like rappers/popular artists have been referencing games for a long time!
@@PSWiitch Yes they have, House of Pain "Tryin' to play me out like as if my name was Sega" in Jump Around 1992, & Notorious B.I.G. "Super Nintendo, Sega Genesis
When I was dead broke, man, I couldn't picture this" in Juicy 1994. I bet there are earlier examples, going back to the 80's, too.
I like the way he says ‘GameCube, Nintendo’
@Rabbit23GSO He still the Boss of the North ✊🏿
They should bring her to help promote the next console!
Thank you for the inside scoop!
Yessss one of those rare popular songs that never gets old! So funny you guys are making this I definitely wondered if you were aware of it
Wow, just what I needed for my morning, Kit singing Sabrina Carpenter haha 🎉
Very informative video, thank you.
Ohhh I was actually wondering what Nintendo thought when I first heard that lyric! Cool to hear your insights & that she worked with Nintendo years ago!
I’ve seen the Sabrina carpenter meme with the 3DS and I had no idea it was recent! I like her more now 😂
“Switch it Up” or “Switch it up like Nintendo” are lines that could very well be on Nintendo ads. Anyway, this situation goes to show that the Switch is popular to this level were it is basically on mainstream pop.
i loveeee this video! it would be cool if nintendo did an ad with sabrina carpenter now
I had this question on my mind for weeks now, wishing you guys would answer it ❤
I actually had not heard this song because I don't listen to the radio anymore and I don't use TikTok (just listened to it just to hear the reference), but it's a very not family-friendly song, so very interesting inclusion of the most family-friendly company in it. Publicity is publicity though.
Nintendo is a good business example of planting a seed today, taking very good care of it, and seeing it grow strong in the future, ultimately giving back to the company.
They also work with smaller but established Japanese artists for the voiced tracks in Splatoon!
Omg, I thought about asking you this every time I hear the song, wth haha This is crazy, I feel like a psychic haha
I love that song so much. I was hype when I heard the Nintendo reference for the first time.
I love that artists mentions Nintendo in their songs. We had B.o.B’s Nothin’ On You mentioned that a girl got him frozen like a Nintendo 64, right? That’s how it got me flattered and how it got the solution because back in the 90s, Nintendo had a lot of issues with freezing capabilities on the N64 console. I just wished that somehow they could include a cameo of a Nintendo 64 in that line. So, it has been a pretty big deal for music stars to work with Nintendo as they are very popular as of today. They should do this with Sega and Capcom too. Besides, I’m a big fan of music and video games. So why not make a whole song about Mario, Pokémon, Kirby, or Mega Man?
Yea I heard this yesterday on Apple Music and I was like wtf?
Brie is a big Nintendo fan and she wants to play samus so she actually has a good chance of a Metroid movie were to ever happen
No keep her away from Samus.
@@ElAssoWipe-oWhy?
Ariana Grande also name dropped Atari in a song on her latest album, she's not just a Nintendo fan but an all around gamer
Justin Bieber is a gamer too.
don't forget Jordan Fisher at the Mario Odyessy launch
I was listening to this song today and thought I heard Nintendo in it. I had to ask my friends if my suspicion was accurate
Nintendo should do an Ad with Kelly Clarkson, she is family friendly and seems very down to earth, plus she has kids and is very competitive, perfect for a mario party commercial, they did one already with Christina Aguilera so..
They also did it with Kenan Thompson.
I didn't know about the song so I clicked on the video for the sheer randomness. What a joy.
So all those spots with celebrities (Bree Larson, Jessica Alba, Kenan Thompson etc.)...they are fans?
Ariana Grande said "play me like an Atari" in her latest album.
CeeLo Green also said “I guess I’m Xbox and I’m more Atari” in Forget You.
8:05 years but given Sabrina’s branding she’s not the most family friendly person and that lyric sounds like an innuendo
U are everywhere! Why do u watch the same channels as me?
😂@@FTChomp9980
@@FTChomp9980I could say the same about you though
Not like I go looking for you I just click random videos and there you are 😂
@@madnessarcade7447 Yeah I guess your right at least this means we both have good taste in channels at least!😂
Sabrina is a Nintendo fan! I always knew she would be. Nintendo should sponsor her with the new Switch console. I like that idea. Imagine if that happens though.
Waiting for the Nintendo announcement that the song is great and all, but "could you please change the lyric to 'Nintendo Switch family of systems'?"
omg I wanted this to happen lol!
What about Jordan fisher? He performed at the mario odyssey game launch in nyc in October 2017😭. You did not mention him
I met Sabrina before she got big, she is super nice
The Joel Mchale commercial for Nintendo 3DS 12 years ago was hilarious and one I dunno if Nintendo of today would be okay with. it was during the height of his popularity in Community, but props to Nintendo for doing that commercial lol
Weird. I was just thinking about that lyric earlier today and then this video comes up.
I've been wanting to ask you about this song, I've been obsessed with it but wonder how nintendo feels about it
If I was a big celebrity I would probably pay Nintendo to be in one of their ads!
That’s that me espresso
The more Nintendo in pop culture, the better. Keep it coming!
You can tell I have too much time on my hands because I genuinely wondered about the answer to this question. XD
Probably not intentional but hilarious that the title “Espresso” is the code name of the Wii U CPU😂
Eminem has made at least a couple Nintendo references that I know of, one of them being from "Love The Way You Lie" of course. The other one is the song "So Far..." from the The Marshall Mathers LP 2 album, where he name-drops Zelda.
Kelly Clarkson is a big Nintendo fan too. She invited the cast to the Super Mario Bros. Movie on her set.
Cardi B also mentioned Mario in her song “I Like It” she said:
“Grab my coins like Mario” .
Yung Gravy in his song “Betty” said:
“Pull up with a Zelda and a Peach and a Daisy”
I just thought the lyrics were a little inappropriate (adult) for younger Nintendo audiences, but I couldn’t see them doing anything to keep it from rising in popularity. I just see Nintendo as a very family-friendly brand and that they would value protecting that. Since it was not directly from them, it’s not really a knock on them that there is a historical association. And the tune is catchy 😊
you’re right and i thought the same thing but i think the meaning would likely fly over the young fans’s heads
I remember Beyonce doing an ad for Nintendo 😂
What did they think about the rap lyric "smokin on that endo, gamecube nintendo" ?
Them talking about this is crazy 😂
Is Nintendo the most referenced videogame company in music? 🤔
Probably!
Paris Hilton and Nintengdogs ✨🐶 😂
This is the first time Ive heard of this song, but its an absolute bop. Added to my playlist instantly
Well, I'm in Mexico, and I'm certainly not the most up to date person in matters of pop music... But I had never, in my life, EVER heard about this Sabrina Carpenter until I saw the thumbnail of this video.
😂 i didn’t even realize the lyrics mentioned Nintendo, I’ve listened to the song many times but sometimes I don’t fully understand because of accent or whatever. I’m not a native English speaker.
How?
This is going to be the song of the summer. It gives me Doja Cat vibes from a few years ago.
Say so right? Search for a mashup someone already did between these 2 song here on YT, they're really similar!
This sounds like what other big companies do. They don't have concrete deals and sponsors with celebrities, but if they see you using/wearing one of their products they send you free stuff to wear/use in public. From what I understand, fashion companies and sneaker brands do this a lot.
Y'all forgot Beyoncé's DS commercial, Christina Aguilera many commercials lol and Paris Hilton's Nintendogs tweet and the iconic Gamecube launch party where even Jason Alexander showed up. Someone already mentioned Robin and Zelda Williams so yeah them too lol
Will people buy switches after listening to her song tho that’s the question
Soon, somebody will have to sing, "I'm a Switch Successor like Nintendo!" 😆
"Life is no Nintendo game!"
Eminem
As a small indie pop artist that's passionate about video games, I should definitely mention Nintendo in one of my songs xD
Oh yeah I absolutely believe that if Nintendo got Sabrina to help promote Switch 2, that could do quite a bit for the reach of the promo
Nintendo will indeed be switching it up with Nintendo Switch 2 and this part of the song in commercials/advertisement 😂
Blowing On The Endo
Game Cube Nintendo
Five Percent Tint
So You Can't See Up In My Window
-Still Tippin', Mike Jones
Chris Pratt comes to mind when they mentioned Nintendo only works with genuine Nintendo fans. It's hard to really know if he is or not, but after the "Stomping... KOOPAS" interview, it feels like that might not be the case with the person starring Mario in Nintendo's own movie. Glad a lot of the others they work with are genuine fans!
wait didnt this song come out a couple of months ago?
in april but it still is gaining popularity because of please please please and sabrina’s rise in general
You mention how nintendo didnt like paying alot for celebrities im jusy curious how they managed to pay for Robin Williams not just once but twice! Once for the 3ds version of ocarine of time and then another for skyward sword. I imagine he wasn't cheap
I'd say Nintendo wouldn't care. They didn't care about suing people over using it like donkey Kong. Why would they do the same for sabrina
This song is so good. I had this exact thought when I heard her sing "switch it up like Nintendo." 😂
hahaha why is this such a funny topic
Huh, never heard of her or her song. Cool Nintendo mention tho 👍🏿
I have never heard of Sabrina Carpenter nor her song. It wasn't until this video until I learned about all of this. It's backwards marketing here for me: through her including Nintendo, I learned about her, not Nintendo
are u like 40 or something
@@SmallHappyOtter No. I just don't listen to Western music much.
You guys mentioning Nintendo noticing up & coming stars reminded me of the Nintendo Fusion tour they used to do in 2003-2006 which had bands like My Chemical Romance & Panic at the disco shortly before they blew up in popularity
Is she trying to star in the Nintendo Switch 2 commercial?
Drake has a lyric in a song where he says "Wii can work it out no Nintendo." And of course Cardi B has that lyric where she says "I'm bout my coins like Mario." This makes me wonder how many songs are out there that reference Nintendo. 😂
Beyoncé in the Rhythm Heaven commercial 😂 🎶 remember that one?
My very first thought when I fired up this video was "Who are these two completely random jokers and how are they qualified to speak about Nintendo things?" so I'm glad they addressed that up front! 😏😂
Nintendo has ads with Twice ❤
The only reason why NINTENDO takes action about something its obviously because of the LEAKERS... but in all honesty they actually like it being talked about...
