Has there ever been any commercials like the awesome, intense Legend of Zelda commercial (http://www.thenerdpage.com/Files/zeldacommercial.mpg) for final fantasy?

Not of that caliber.

The first time a Final Fantasy was advertised on TV in the US was for FFVII. I remember that FFVI(FFIII back then) had a lot of ads in gaming magazines. And I don't remember if FFIV(FFII back then) or FFI had any type of advertising at all.

>>> Man that commercial is the most hilarious thing Ive seen..:D
In that time Square was nothing compared with Nintendo, if Im not wrong FF1 was the last Square`s attempt for save the company. so I doubt they had his own commercial in US..

The first actual FF Commercial I've seen was for FF10. Just to show how much I watch TV.

FFVI (III in America) had a really neat commercial involving Mog interviewing monsters... I miss that.

I remember seeing commercials for FFVII and a few short ones for FFIX. But Square doesn't need to make commercials for their games; they sell particularly well.

I'm sure Japan gets a lot of them, though.

Japan gets a lot, especially FF/Coca Cola ad campaigns...

I thought that commercial only came out in Japan but I remember it now. Good catch.

Pretty weird, really, considering Tidaliathan (Ogopogo) isn't a pivotal enemy in the game, or even the most difficult optional boss.

Had Squall lunging forward to escape the machine in Dollet and had the caption:
"You'll get over it...someday."

I've never seen any FF adverts here in the UK (on TV), but as Azeroth said there was probably an FFVIII one but I wasn't into it back when it came out so I probably wouldn't have noticed ^^

The only advert for FFX I've seen is that in magazines, which has a picture of Yuna and says "To save the world even she needs your help". Anyone else seen that one?

And there's no billboards round where I live :p
