#96820 Take 2 Earnings Call...GTAV announcement?

Posted by RockD79 on 31 July 2012 - 09:50 AM

Take 2 will have its earnings call today July 31st at 4:30pm EST.  What's unusual is the fact that the conference call will be made public. Anyone can listen into the call.  The press speculate that they may make a GTAV announcement during the call.  There's no telling if it could be Wii U related but anythings possible.  Its quite possible it could be released by March 2013.  Take 2's fiscal year ends March 31... same as Nintendo's.  Here's the link.

#95966 Why did Nintendo stop mass advertising?

Yea marketing has been a tad light in recent years.  I liked with what they did with the Ocarina of Time 3D trailer.  Remaking the same exact trailer from '98 using the the 3DS game footage was awesome. Hope this doesn't sound too corny but it would be cool if they aired a 30 second tv ad in the next month or so along the lines of this suggestion.  I think for the teaser it would be neat if they had a pitch black room, complete darkness.  Then in sequence have the familiar blue light of the Wii light up first and glow.  Just the light, nothing else, keeping the system hidden in darkness.  Next, after 5 seconds or so, have the gamepad screen light up besides or underneath the blue light.  As before, leaving the gamepad itself hidden in the dark. Then last, have the tv turn on to the exact image shown on the controller.  Then after a few seconds have the tv change channels quickly leaving the gamepad still at the same image or game as before.  That way showing the separate image capabilities.  Finally, the tv channel changing comes to an end and stops on the Wii U logo with a "coming soon" appearing afterwards.  Just pulled that out of my ass.  Heck, they could probably pull off a 15 second ad with that.  Lol!
