Pink Product Ploy: Difference between revisions

* The [[Disney Princess]] merchandise is usually pink on the packages, and the line logo is pink. It is possible to get [[Beauty and the Beast|Belle]] in a pink dress...

* The toys for ''[[My Little Pony: Friendship Is Magic|My Little Pony Friendship Is Magic]]'' include a lot more pink on the ponies (most infamously Princess Celestia, although a properly-colored white version of her toy was eventually revealed) than is actually in the show. [[Word of God]] is that this was done to appease the retail buyers, who explicitly stated that the color influenced their purchase quantities.

* The [[Nintendo DS]] Lite came in, not one, but two different pink colors during its run - coral pink and metallic rose - both of which were marketed to the increasingly targeted demographic of female gamers. Interestingly, the original coral pink version became a big hit with males, thanks in part to promotion from ''[[Penny Arcade]]''.

* The Japanese starter pack for the ''[[Pokémon Trading Card Game]]'''s ''Black and White'' expansion came in two flavors; a "for boys" version that was packaged in a dark-colored box, and a "for girls" version that was hot pink and covered in hearts. While this wasn't the only difference between the decks, it was certainly the most noticeable.
