    Old Game Commercials

    A friend reminded me of how awesome (see also: corny) the commercials for games could be back then. I figured we may as well share any notables and get a good laugh or some nostalgia out of them.

    YouTube - Turbografx-16 Promo VHS Video 1: "Get Turbocharged!"
    YouTube - Old Zelda Commercial Dance

    I honestly wish I could say I saw some of these commercials as a kid... but I didn't.

    Wario!

    Those are some good ones posted! However I don't seem to recall any of them from my childhood. I do remember this one though:

    YouTube - Super Mario Land 2: The Six Golden Coins Commercial

    I think I remember it because it was hypnotized into my brain...

    Must...destroy...Mario...

    Paul Rudd ages like fine wine. And freaky NES commercial is FREAKY.

    YouTube - Got Milk?-Super Mario 64
    YouTube - Japanese Mario Bros 2 and Zelda commercial
    YouTube - Legend of Zelda Commercial for NES - Oh yes.

    I think I remember seeing that FFIII commercial... now I know why I never bought the game.

    YouTube - Dragon Quest VII 7 TV CM Warrior ???????? tvcm commercial

    Ohh silly Japanese people and their RPGs. Though I will admit, the game was definitely worth the wait imo. After beating the game and after what I thought was "rushing" through it to get to the end of the story, I put 119 hours on this game. x_x

Then again this one is kind of on the outs with me if she doesn't straighten up and fly right so that means I will be back in it for the thrill of the kill. Got some in the reserves. Even got a rePETEr (<---- like that ay? AYYYYY?) on the back burner.

    Block: I do like the rePETEr except it kinda makes it sound like you're going to pork Pete. No homo.

    Hahaha...Zelda dance...NO.

    That gets funny at first, but afterwards...it's a torture. It can officially qualify as a kind of Japanese torture technique. Worse if you have a pal who's willing to dance while loads of people are around, for the lulz.

    Therefore, that must be fixed. Allow me to add a legend to this. Evidently, it is a music video, but you can link there to a variety of the commercials.

    Enter the legend...Segata Sanshiro!

    Pester me on the Giant in the Playground Forums if you really need me.

    The Final Boss Theorem:
    The size of the ultimate form of the final boss is inversely proportional to it's chances of actually beating your party. If you agree with this, please copy and paste this valuable piece of info on your sig. AND, if you're evil and villainous...never settle for a big form when a smaller form is more kickass...
