They are all amazing.
Seriously, I want all of them.
Anyway the guys over at The Hub sent me the higher quality version of the commercial! Check out the embed below.
Or download it here! (Higher quality than youtube I think!)
I highly suggest downloading it and going frame by frame. Some of the stuff buried in here is priceless.

ReplyDelete~yay~
ReplyDelete'Rarity's Secret'?
ReplyDeleteOh gosh, it has begun on official channels. We're doomed. DOOOOMED!
Still... this is hilarious.
Derp-Zam! Want it! NOW!!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy I can just scream...
ReplyDelete(aahhhhh)
The meta is killing me.
ReplyDeleteIn a good way.
~Buddy Vox
"Derp-Zam."
ReplyDeleteHeh.
When was the last time that marketing had this much influence from the audience?
Hmmm. What would an EQ daily app be like?
ReplyDeletewait...Derp-Zam?
ReplyDeleteSo is Depy kinda cannon now?
also Equestria Daily. aww.
anyway if iPhones came with those apps I would absolutely buy one.
I don't know which amazes me more, that Seth is apparently on the Hub's mailing list, or that somepony apparently let Pinkie have an iPhone.
ReplyDeleteTHERE'S AN EQUESTRIA DAILY APP!!!
ReplyDelete0:18
It's awesome!!!
"MISSLES"?
ReplyDeleteDesperately trying to EXIT from the Nighmare Moon game... LMcutie-markO!

ReplyDeleteDownloaded - saved, in same folder with "Equestria Girls".

Dear Hub,
Whoever thought of this, give them a raise. And a bonus. Now. KTHX!
The hub just became 20% more amazing!
ReplyDeleteThe people who made this commercial should get high praise. This is full of win!!!
ReplyDelete...Does that really say "Derp-Zam"?
ReplyDeleteAlso, Rainbow Dash's cutie mark gives her powers. Powers of Friendship.
Genious

That was AWESOME. I love the HUB commercials. Now, somepony needs to create an icon library using the app icons from this video. I could sooo use those on my desktop.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteYou mean, is the ponyPhone real? No. I wish it were, but this is just a MLP commercial. :P
-1043 reviews for Pinkie's party
ReplyDeleteHoly crap. She must invite ponies from all over the place.
I love this so much. Just sat and frame-by-framed it with my daughter.
ReplyDeleteThe simple fact that the articles have actual words to them except for random gibberish makes me love this video that much more.
ReplyDeleteSo many jokes I have to pause just to catch them all.
ReplyDeleteBarn prices drop, bank is going to foalclose on Sweet Apple Acres...
ReplyDeleteHow awesome are they for reacting this fast to the demand for a higher quality video? And choosing Equestria Daily to distribute it.
ReplyDeleteI noticed they fixed Pinkie's name in this version! It said "Pinky" in the video from the other blog post.
ReplyDeleteI love you hub, now how about doubling next seasons episode count for us? :D
ReplyDeleteBetween Equestria Girls, Bridlemaids and now this commercial, whoever at the Hub is behind this must REALLY love their job and deserves one hell of a raise. *brohoof* I actually can't wait to see what they come up with next.
ReplyDelete"Sequences shortened. Actual shows are longer."
ReplyDeleteYes, lets get all the kids to head over to "4 hoof"
ReplyDeleteOh, and they called her DJ P0n-3 again.
~Scratch
Rarity's Secret
ReplyDeleteHooves
Mane
Evening Wear
Derriere
Bridles
... ooh la la!
@Anonymous 4 hoof is a parody of 4Square not 4chan
ReplyDelete0:26
ReplyDeleteNeigh U
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteActually 4hoof is a play on foursquare. Not 4chan.
For proof, take a look at foursquare's app logo.
Between 4hoof and rarity's secret, that's 2 adult references. I don't think this show is for kids anymore ;-)
ReplyDelete(And if it is, they're going to be getting a visit from Colt Hansen (Chris Hanshoof? Chris Hoofsen?))
0:18
ReplyDeleteEquestria Daily!!! WOOT!
I want these apps now!
ReplyDeleteIf these apps were real,I'd definitely buy an iphone/ipod
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDelete@FRiNKEL
4whatnow?
Moving on...
This show shows you what you can make out of something if you put love and passion into your work. Even into the commercials. Just brilliant.
ReplyDeleteOh nice, a high quality version. Now it's much easier to read it. Having these apps would indeed be quite cool.
ReplyDeleteHas anyone else caught that in the article yet
ReplyDelete"Since last October, ponies have been flaunting their cutie marks around town.You will see them pop up everywhere if you look for them. Many elders say it's a phase, but something tells us that they are going to stay for a long, long time."
Last 3 lines of the PNN article.
OH MAN, DO YOU KNOW WHAT THIS MEANS!?!?!
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteFoursquare. I don't use it, but I know of it's existence. Look it up on the app store.
"I highly suggest downloading it and going frame by frame. Some of the stuff buried in here is priceless."
ReplyDeleteVery yes
There was an EqD app! :D
ReplyDeleteThis comment has been removed by the author.
ReplyDeleteI think there's some Season 2 footage there.
ReplyDeleteAlso Derp-Zam.
ReplyDelete"DJ Pon3" confirmed for official spelling!
ReplyDeletebrb, I have to to rename the camera app on my phone to "flutter shutter" now :)
ReplyDeleteOh and poor applejack only received 46 reviews to her hoedown, even Spike's place did a lot better than that!
I haven't bought an iPod variant in forever. If they made this. I would get it and let them take all my money. It figures Twilight would be the one with the fancy schmancy technology. I bet she got one for free from Princess Celestia.
ReplyDeleteAlso Hub is awesome. That is all.
this is too much pony for me to handle
ReplyDeleteHmm, I just realized Pinkie Pie's party hat 1043 reviews at first, but when she clicks on the link it changes to only 4 reviews.
ReplyDeleteThe amount of Pony puns in this is almost overwhelming.
ReplyDeleteIn a very, very good way :D
You can never watch this too many times. Ever.
ReplyDeleteAny one see zecora's face at :24? Don't drink the potion
ReplyDeleteNeighU.
ReplyDeleteOh god.
At around 2 seconds in on the third set of icons... Rainbow Dash... feedit... Am I the only pony who thinks that icon is adorable?
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteI noticed it too! And I swear, that is bronies they are talking about.
There is no way, NO WAY, this is a commercial! It's impossible! This is too good to be a commercial! ARGH I LOVE THE HUB'S PRODUCTION TEAM!
ReplyDelete@Acriaos
ReplyDeleteIt says "Read 4 Reviews", as in 4 out of 1043.
This is amazing.
ReplyDeleteI love all of you!
Yeah, the channel in the UK that's broadcasting FiM is nowhere near as awesome as the HUB is.
ReplyDeleteThat, or their production team needs to hurry up making things this brilliant.
I LOVE THIS SO MUCH
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU THE HUB
/caps
I love it. All of it. You too Hasbro.
ReplyDeleteAlso Rarity's "WAH-HA-HAAAA" :D
I liked the Major League Ponyball logo.:P
ReplyDeletehttp://www.ponychan.net/chan/pony/src/131016195502.png
So apparently this is the best commercial ever?
ReplyDeleteWatches it.
Yep, yes it is.
The attention to detail is incredible.
This is brilliant! I love how they brought NMM back up and lol at the button mushing trying to exit app.
ReplyDeleteEquestria girls and now this? That's it, Hub is awesome :)
This is the most fucking incredible thing since the show first existed.
ReplyDeleteFeedit. Giggle.
ReplyDeleteThat was AMAZING! Only if that app was real. Damn, whoever is responsible for this, let me just say one thing, I love you.
ReplyDeleteOh my Celestia!
ReplyDeleteOn Pinkie Pie's party, Spike's comment: "Love your Cupcakes"
They know... they know...
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteOctober is when the show came out, right?
I didn't realize that until you pointed it out.
"Here for a long, long time."
I certainly hope so.
That whole "Equestria Daily" App, Seth? IT'S A SIGN. OFFICIAL EQUESTRIA DAILY APP NEEDS TO BE CREATED.
ReplyDeleteDerp-Zam!
ReplyDeleteAlso what's this about a drop in population growth affecting barn prices?
"Derp-Zam"
ReplyDeleteMy life = complete.
And "AP&P Wireless".
ReplyDeleteThey really did think of everything.
So many bronydom references...
ReplyDeleteSurprised nopony's picked up on this one though;
Rarity's Secret
Hooves
Mane
Evening Wear
Derriere
Bridles
One synonym for "fun" away...
I cracked up.
ReplyDelete$500 for an iPhone... nah.
ReplyDelete$500 for a ponyPhone... TAKE ALL OF MY MONEY! TAKE IT ALL! ;)
I think I got all relevant frames:
ReplyDeletehttp://imgur.com/a/fS2ZZ
Fantastic ad, thanks for putting up the high-res download!
ReplyDeleteSo, could anyone tell this Apple-phobe what "Derp-Zam" is parodying?
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteOh you aren't the first one to notice that.
The narration is a bit different. There's a noticeably lower rise in enthusiasm by the narrator than in the version posted on Wired.
ReplyDelete"Sequences shortened. Actual shows are longer."
ReplyDeleteRofl
"Hay Ninja"
ReplyDeleteThat is now what I'm calling Pinkie's disguise from Party of One.
Dammit, Hub, I'm trying to lower the amount of time I spend feeding my obsession over ponies, AND YOU'RE NOT HELPING!!!
ReplyDeleteThat being said, this is just too great. The little details just make it even better. Massive props to the person or people who put this together. I lost it at "eNay" and "Hay Ninja."
Derp-Zam!
ReplyDeleteUmm, guys? Remember when we were concerned as season 1 was ending that the brony community would fall apart because of lack of new content?
ReplyDeleteI think Hub noticed that concern of ours, and has been slipping us these little treats to keep us interested and waiting for season 2 with baited breath.
I mean, what other reason would they have? These ads are probably not all that effective on little girls who have never owned an iPhone, become Katy Perry fans yet or seen ads for "Bridesmaids". These ads have gotta be for *us*.
They love us and want us to stick around. That's just awesome.
Now, that's interesting: The PNN article
ReplyDelete"[...]eem to be related to the drop [...] population growth[...]"
... Fillyfoolers.
@Dr. Orbital Death-Ray That's Twilight's iPony (iPhony? pPhone?), as evidenced by her PonyBook page that pops up.
ReplyDeleteSomeone update the Pony Dictionary, it needs more Entries just for this.
ReplyDeleteThe Advertisement team sure knows what to do. Soon enough we shall be getting promo's for the second season. Now we need to see what the Main Production Team will do for that...
Equicurious... Rainbow Dash. :0
ReplyDeleteI had to watch it in slow before I realized "neigh [horseshoe]" isn't Neigh U, it's just a spoof on Yelp. :D
EqD favicon should be updated to that pic of... uh, pony and bacon!
Also: Bronies, Y U no working on Angry Mare game yet!
Which is Neigh U a parody of? That's about the only one I didn't get.
ReplyDeleteIn trade: Derp-Zam is a parody of "Shazam", an app that will recognize songs for you -- like if you're in a store and a song comes on the PA, you just run it -- it picks up the song over the phone's mic and tells you what it is.
@zorinlynx
ReplyDeleteYeah, but at the same time the ads are also pink, colorful, and feature the ponies. Plus, they've seen their parents on their cell phones, so they know what they /are/.
That said, yes, a good chunk of this is probably for the Bronies. I mean hell, Rarity's secret? That's one of those references designed for when the kids grow up and watch the show again. Which I absolutely LOVE about MLP.
ALL apps I would download.
ReplyDelete@Kittysneezes.com/Rev. Syung Myung Me
ReplyDeleteIt's not "Neigh U"; it's just "Neigh". The U is a horseshoe. And it's a parody of Yelp - "yelp" being an exclamation humans make, and "neigh" of course being an exclamation equines make.
"Barn prices dropping"... "due to a drop in population growth"
ReplyDeleteD:
Oh noooooooo! The ponies are demographically doomed!
This cannot stand! Quick Celestia! We need government-mandated breeding programs STAT! Everypony, get to mating!
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteSecret butt fun?
And, Hub, you are teh awesome for this.
Also, YAY! Explicit mention of Derp! Not quite the same as Derpy, but we see where this is going. ;)
ReplyDelete@Kittysneezes.com/Rev. Syung Myung Me
ReplyDeleteSo, DerpZam listens to the song, tries to identify it, then gives your something almost, but not quite, entirely unlike what you were listening to?
And why do I get the feeling that's exactly what Shazam already does?
I saw this hours ago and I'm still laughing at Rairy's Secret. Must be the back section of her boutique, behind a curtained door that Sweetie isn't allowed to enter. If I could write, it would be the basis for a fic.
ReplyDeleteDat MLG parody.
ReplyDeleteThey really went all-out on this!
I want to drink the magic potion.
ReplyDeleteRainbow Dash app? Friggin' want!
ReplyDeleteInteresting.. In the original commercial, they spelled Pinkie as "Pinky" for "Pinky's party" but in this version, it's corrected. Awesome ad overall! I really like their marketing.
ReplyDeleteAm I really the only one that saw Vinyl Scratch's app on the first page and went "F*** YEAH!"?
ReplyDeleteThat...was genius. The Hub rocks, yo.
ReplyDeleteWow. This really made my day, I soooooooo needed that! Thank you The Hub Channel, and Hasbro!
ReplyDelete@zorinlynx
ReplyDeleteOf course, they like all the companies want ALL of our money so they must keep us interested until season 2.
Hub we love you.
ReplyDeleteThat was so funny. And a brilliant way to advertise MLP. This is what you call truth in advertising. The characters are so diverse and unique that there really is a Pony for everyone.
EPIC.
ReplyDeleteAnd yeah, the pony version of 4chan is 4colt, not 4hoof. :)
Twilight Sparkle's ponybook status.
ReplyDelete"It's pony night! Where my Fillies at? Time to make some Hay!"
Not sure if want.
@Pixel Coder [RebeccaRGB]
ReplyDeleteMaybe meant to be 4square?
>Equicurious
ReplyDelete>Picture of Rainbow Dash
That explains everything
I love how on Neigh, Rarity's Horse Couture (why didn't they ever use that pun in-series?) fling is above DJ PON-3's rave and Pinkie's party. Rarity must throw amazing parties!
ReplyDeleteThat Zecora game reminds me of the Giant's Drink from Ender's Game, creepily enough.
"PetMinder" Applebloom. Um...
"FlutterShutter" Photo Finish, take my money already!
"DerpZam" Someone needs to code this. You don't even need audio recognition! Just connect to a song database and develop a way to pick a random song. I'd use it just to see what music Derpy thinks I like!
Somepony really needs to make some of these apps and websites!
ReplyDeleteYahoof?
Hooftube?
Ponybook?
Please make ^^
I can't get over how amazing the Hub is being for recognizing us! Now just give us better tooooys!
ReplyDeleteI may just have to make an android theme based off of this
ReplyDeleteFirst the best show ever, now the best commercial ever?
ReplyDeleteI love you, Hub.
You know what could be awesome? Someone making a real version of all those icons and packing them up as a theme for jailbroken iPhones.
ReplyDeleteI could so jailbreak my iPhone just for those icons. Seriously.
4 Square is a social media app that lets you "check in" at various places you visit, such as cafes and restaraunts. You can actually earn free stuff if you check into certains places often enough depending on what cafe or coffeeshop you visit. It allows you to see where your friends are at in the city. https://foursquare.com/
ReplyDeleteHasbro needs to give us toys and plushies that are as show accurate as the crystal pony keychains.
HOLY SHI
ReplyDeletelooks like its dev time!
XCODE, LEZ GO :D
For those who don't want to cap it themselves, here's a link to some HQ caps.

ReplyDeleteWANT
Too bad there wasn't a Cluedo + Pony app :C
can i die of fangasp twice in a day?
ReplyDeleteThe point total for the shadowbolts game is 09231980. Could that be a date?
ReplyDeleteI don't have anything to add here. This is just incredible, simply incredible, and I love whoever made it. That is all.
ReplyDeleteOh, and the Friendship is Magic wiki absolutely *HAS* to rename itself Wikiponia.
ReplyDelete(Anonymous said: The point total for the shadowbolts game is 09231980. Could that be a date?)
ReplyDeleteDid some research (google, wikipedia, bing, etc...). Nothing really interesting or related to the show or MLP in general. Must just be a set of random numbers if I'm wrong.
Also, am I the only one having trouble downloading the .mov file included in the post? It finishes in 1 second, as 0 KB. It shouldn't do that. I'm not blocking anything and I've tried this in firefox, chrome (my main browser) and IE.
Need Lyra sitting on a park bench reading Equestria Daily in season 2.
ReplyDeleteSo much win.
ReplyDeleteSo many little details and awesome parts, frame by frame was definitely warranted.
I love how the company loves the fanbase pretty much and sends us this kind of material that we LOVE~
ReplyDeleteFriendship really is Magic~ <3<3<3
@David
ReplyDeleteHay Ninja is likely the pony version of "Fruit Ninja", where you swipe to slice as many fruit as you can. It's a fun game, I have it for Android.
Honestly, this ad was just plain of awesome, I would totally buy "Angry Mare"-video game! Too bad people will probably freak out that they have already lost the game and are doomed watching Luna laughing for all eternity.
ReplyDeleteAll the little jokes are what make this so awesome. Also I have really got to by an iPhone. Damn you ponies, making me update me technology.
ReplyDelete@LaDestitute
ReplyDeleteApparently it's the date of Bob Marley's last live performance!
Am I the only one here ho isn't a fan of this promo? First of all that isn't a reference to Cupcakes at least I don't think it is, but if it is the commercial pisses me off even more. Having things like Equestria Girls is nice, the Bridlemaids billboard was pushing it, and this? Makes me seriously question if I even want to watch season 2, I thought this show was dedicated towards everyone not the internet. I love this show but throwing in little shout outs like this is making me question whether or not I want to watch it anymore.
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteSept 23 1980
Last live performance of Bob Marley.
Sept 23 in general
Celebrate Bisexuality Day is observed on September 23... Umm... Wikipedia says this didn't exist in 1980 though. Still... That drop in population growth and all...
This kind of thing makes me happy about being a marketing major :D
ReplyDelete@Anonymous
ReplyDeletewait... you HATE shoutouts? I don't even WANT you to watch season 2, gtfo my ponyville!
All my money!
ReplyDeleteCutie marks, what are they? Seems like they are all the rage with the younger ones.
ReplyDeleteAsk any pony out there about theirs, they will sure talk your ear off about their own and what they are all about. We had a moment to talk to Rainbow earlier this week.
She says that hers give her powers. Powers that help her with friendship and life.
Many of the community ponies have also got in on the whole cutie mark stampede.
Since last October, ponies have been flaunting their cutie marks around town. You will see them pop up everywhere if you keep an eye out for them. Many of the elders say they are just a phase, but something tells us they are here to stay for a long time.
Oh...my....Celestia.....
ReplyDeleteI WANT NOW.
Wow... That was amazing. I still can't stop laughing... Going frame-by-frame was totally worth it. I want some of those apps. Since I got hooked on ponies, my iPod hasn't been used for much else. Nice to see the Hub appreciates us, for a network I don't get, they've has stolen a lot of my free time.
ReplyDelete/signature
Soon after I saw the There's a Pony for that commerical from hub, I decided to rip and make an icon set for all my fellow bronies! There are 54 of them, and in comes in formats for windows icon, png, mac, and favicons. Enjoy!
ReplyDeleteDownload link here: [url=http://dl.dropbox.com/u/5899974/Pony%20for%20That%20Icon%20Set.zip]Click me[/url]
Ever behind the times as always, Gizmodo has posted a tiny, degrading article about Wired's article for this.
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say, it's drawing-out all the misguided furry-haters.
TBH it was just a bunch of paper-thin puns referencing iPhone apps. Not exactly ingenious.
ReplyDeleteAlthough the level of detail put into it is impressive considering it's a 30-second clip. And an Equatria Daily app is so cool.
Manly Spike needs to be in an old spice commercial.
ReplyDeleteHmm.. was there new animation in that spot? I don't ever recall seeing Rarity in that red and white dress in season 1, or that scene with Fluttershy gathering flowers. Not that it's season 2 footage, but If they went as far as to reference Derpy, Equestria Daily, "secret butt fun", and possibly Cupcakes, then I wouldn't be surprised :)
ReplyDelete@Vermillion Twilight
ReplyDeleteRarity's dress is in episode 19
Fluttershy collecting flowers is in episode 10
@Anonymous
ReplyDeleteEpisode 20 not 19
Good lord. I love you hub.
ReplyDelete@Vermillion Twilight
ReplyDeleteLike two anons said before me, the dress is from episode 20. Fluttershy collecting flowers is episode 10 ^^
As the owner of three iPods and an iPad I love the hell outta this! *giggles* They really put a lot of work into it!
ReplyDelete(and yes I am putting it on my iPad!)
Wanna make your own pony app?
ReplyDeleteThere's a pony for that. |D
Go to the App Store and look up "Make an App".
@Anonymous Ohmy. silly shipping fun, lul
ReplyDeleteI know it's been said a bunch of times, but:
ReplyDeleteI love you, Hub.
I love you, Hasbro.
I love you, Lauren Faust.
Can someone list what the puns are references to? Even the obvious ones. I just need it for a list.
ReplyDeleteDunno what all of the references are either,
ReplyDeletebut here's the list
PAGE 1
Ponydora, Whinny, Equicurious, Pony Radio, Neigh, Wikiponia, Groove Pony, Rarity's Secret, Open Stable, Twilight, Grazior (?), Hubworld
PAGE 2
Pvite, eNay, PNN, Flutter Shutter, Angry Mare, HoofTube, Pony Wireless (AP&P), CM: Rainbow, Equestria Daily, PetMinder, Hay Ninja, Derp-Zam!
PAGE 3
Yahoof!, Groupony, 4Hoof, MLP (Major League Pony), PonyBook, EquWeather, iGallop, Pinkie Sweets, Feedit, Happy Flower, Princess, Equestrian Center
Simply Amazing
ReplyDeletethe Equestria daily reference made me lol.
ReplyDeletesomeone needs a raise
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know what NeighU references, I get almost all but that one.
ReplyDeleteNEVERMIND! I found this: http://mlp.wikia.com/wiki/There's_a_Pony_For_That
ReplyDeleteEquestria Daily app?
ReplyDeleteAnybody else care?
