A lot of people blame this weird and peak-90s marketing campaign for Earthbound's initial commercial failure. I think it's a little much to pin it entirely on the marketing, since even at the time the game looked really primitive and boring to be competing with FF3 and Chrono Trigger and Secret of Mana and whatever else was on the market at the time. The campaign seems to read like the designer's only exposure to the game was seeing someone examining the turds Pokey left behind in the desert town and thinking it was representative of the whole. That said, the whole thing fits in with the weird gross-out advertising of the period. edit: I just noticed they included the guy in the club who says "I just farted"
