Aw, I like it. It's simple and to the point. I understand though that the use of the mouse is overdone and possibly outdated. Maybe if they used an optical? Hey, at least it's wireless!

Just because something is used a lot doesnt mean its automatically bad. When something is used a lot in bad or forced ways then that is bad.
This does tell the story as quickly as possible. The mouse resembles white rice under the fish, so why change the mouse to a less effective visual just because “mouse” ads have been prevalant recently. Besides to us maybe weve seen it often but the consumer likely doenst make this distinction. Its about the message first, the execution second.
Dial-up for sushi = Salmon on a white phone
Take-out sushi = Salmon on a white styrofoam box
Sushi delivery = Salmon on a white bicycle tire / white steering wheel
Sushi counter = salmon lined up on a white counter top
It's not forced, it's too easy, therefore not terribly insightful, ergo not very good.

pass the bucket!
disgusting and dated
The mouse is back!!!! Which one is this, Ad Mouse number 3.345.234.198?
Over used? Yes. But it does tell the story.
The question is if that's enough to qualify as a true "Ad of the World"?

Why are French ads so bad?

Spot on.
>>>> That's not an ad. THIS is an ad.
I like how the fish actually looks relaxed over the mouse, like a lizard taking a nap on a warm rock.
