Sony will be announcing its successor to the PlayStation 3 in just a matter of days. A proper reveal will be taking place this Wednesday.
In order to spread the word, Sony has been publishing various ads across the net – from pre-roll videos on YouTube to traditional block ads on websites.
There have already been a couple of ads spotted that seemingly come off as a bit of an insult to Microsoft and/or Nintendo. Now yet another traditional ad has been discovered that clearly takes a shot at the Big N and the company’s Mario IP. Take a look below:

No wonder Sony is in financial trouble, they don't realize they are poking fun at the best selling franchise in the history of video games.

Keep in mind everybody these are just rumors, their probably ads created by sonydrones, though if they are legit i wouldn't be at all surprised, stooping to new lows are nothing new for Sony these days.

Probably created by fanboy, but it's not like I care, Mario has sold 457 million total games while their signature franchises fail to meet 20... Although I would take uncharted over Mario any day of the week.

I was once known here as KillerMario, but since I really like Banjo-Kazooie, I changed my display name to show them my respect :)

It isn't a rumor, it's true.

They paid for that ad. Sony is known for this, not exactly "shocking".

Yay, yet another Uncharted/God of War/ Sly Cooper/ Killzone game coming to you in the near future!

Yep because Sony milks those series as hard as Nintendo milks Mario, right?

This statement is false. The previous statement is true.

RIP in peace Nintendo.

This is sad....Sony will do great with PS4 you guys are starting this mess all over again, I tell you what if PS4 starts off with low sales it will end with a bang just like PS3 did and just like Vita is going to do. So you fanboys stop riding Mario's dick his mushrooms ain't makin' him no bigger.

well im going to laugh if nintendo sells more consoles in the first months than the other two, because you kno hat all the reviewers are going to say is that "its just a slow start for them but they will bounce back" nlike the "nintendo is going to fail bc they only sold 3 million units int he first three months."
