It's amazing they managed to sell anything. Half of their marketing was "hey, ain't this look nasty?"

Nintendo was doing this all the time during it's Play It Loud era. They tried to counter Sega's confrontational marketing by adopting the kind of attitude that was made popular in the 90s by Bart Simpson and Nickelodeon. That "your mom would not approve of this" gimmick caused their ads to take a hard turn toward the bizarre and gross. But they ended up taking it too far into straight up Ren & Stimpy territory. It's actually a surprise that ONLY Earthbound suffered from it.
