How To Get Your Girlfriend Into Gaming - Part Deux

Couple of years ago, I had written an article on how you can get your girlfriend to game with you. Much water has flown under the bridge since but gaming still is not very popular with the ladies despite all our begging, pleading and threats.

A gaming console maker from Brazil seems to have come out with a different strategy. They spent millions of $ to understand what really pleases a woman and they think they finally have an answer. In a very subtle way, they have been enticing women to buy their gaming console since their launch in June this year.

Ladies please welcome the Zeebo into your bedrooms.. err.. I mean living rooms..


And if you are wondering what this is all about.. take a closer look at the packaging. If you still don't get it, check out the picture below to figure out how they have been using subconscious marketing to women and their 'needs'..

ShareKhan on the prowl?

Is it just me or are you also disturbed by the above advertisement?

The ad in question is the latest online banner ad for Sharekhan.com for their online stock brokerage / trading services. The disturbing fact is the look on the so-called "market expert" trying to put poor Karan's fears to rest.

If I were Karan and somebody like that comes along, I would genuinely be even more scared of investing into the stock market. Check out the facial expression on that guy. He looks a 100% guaranteed creep who is only interested in my money! And those glasses do nothing to hide that slyness in his eyes.

Whoever approved that ad in Sharekhan obviously hasn't heard of the nuances of emotions and expressions in advertisements. They got Karan's expressions correct though!

I will be staying away from Sharekhan.com
