Overflow Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 There is no way that's real. Right? Right? That was beyond creepy. That can't be real. ._. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZealPath Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Here's a good one (SMB2) that I honestly remember from when I was like 5 years old or something like that. Probably the only NES game commercial that I remember, I don't know why I remember it, but when I saw this thread title, I figured I'd see if I could find it.

anosou Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Aaahahahahahaha ...then they released the n64 and gamecube *burn* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Coop Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Well. That first one was certainly some good old fashioned nightmare fuel. While not quite oldschool, it's still one of the best 32bit commercials made in my opinion... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nmxRHiNhlYM Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That FFVII one gives me the chills, though. EPIC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tex Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Super Mario Land 2 http://br.youtube.com/watch?v=Ca6yD4rQIeo It got an impressive animation for its time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pezman Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Oh, I'm about to throw up the horns. And if that wasn't WTF enough... Still more? Here's one in English... Not technically a game commercial, but... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moseph Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 The Beetle Adventure Racing ad was interesting in that it was almost entirely game footage. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVnlcajcRKk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Damned Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I fucking loved Beetle Adventure Racing. In two player mode, I always did this little trick on the ramps. I would hit the brake and instead of jumping and being a target for missiles, I'd slide off the edge and drop down. Anyone following would have to do the same, and risk getting nailed by my guns, or take the jump and lose track of me. Not many people played it, and not many played two-player. I wonder if anyone else ever figured that ramp thing out on their own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Azar Posted January 25, 2009 Author Share Posted January 25, 2009 I remember this commercial vividly: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mB4Bfqrrw84 It amazes me at how different the game ended up playing out compared to my thoughts based on that commercial at the time.

justinj212 Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I wanted a SNES soooooooooooooo bad, was 4 when it came out in 1991 and got it for Christmas in 1992 along with Turtles in Time. In the mean time I was playing Punch Out, Mario, Marble Madness, Kung Fu, and Battletoads on my NES and avoiding commercials like this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRO_bVJqkkQ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RedTigrr Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 Now we can't talk about Old School VG commercials without bringing up the legend himself: Segata Sanchiro!!! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=obLniZJF1H0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know! I guess it is a beta version or maybe developer hax. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elex Synn Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 I don't remember any commercials off the top of my head besides that Mario land 2 commercial... BUT, does anyone besides me remember the move "The wizard"? "And a debut of a new game.. SUPER MARIO BROTHERS 3"! *Sighs* Childhood memories.

The Damned Posted January 25, 2009 Share Posted January 25, 2009 The Wizard was a commercial. A big, long, drawn out, 100 minute commercial. I think it counts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Damned Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 Ah, yes. the original Mario Party. So many palms injured, so many controllers damaged, so many friends turned against each other... Would play again, A++++++ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Pezman Posted January 26, 2009 Share Posted January 26, 2009 The one that started it all: I remember this one because Sonic sounded nothing like he should have. Hahahaha... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQj4wjspQZE Huh... figured I should post this one as well. Interesting, to say the least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
