Party like it's 1996!

This is the the first of what will hopefully be a series of graphic design projects I've been doing in my digital design class as of late. We were assigned an identity/advertising project, and in that instant an idea came to me: why not try a modern ad of a classic product? So I reached back into the depths of my childhood and decided on the very best video game system ever made: the Nintendo 64.

I will admit that it did come out a bit more cluttered and disjointed than I would've liked, but I still think it turned out pretty well for what was essentially an experiment in my mind. I wanted it so that right away the viewer sees the important things about the system: screenshots, the system itself, and the characters from its games. I also felt like playing around with the colors from the "N" logo.

I'm still learning with this stuff myself, so let me know what you think, what I should change, and whether you'd like me to post more graphic design work in the future.

(FUN FACT: The computer-chip design in the background is actually the real 64-bit graphics chip found inside the Nintendo 64.)
