Thread: Most Bizarre Game Commercials

  1. #1

    Default Most Bizarre Game Commercials

    I don't know if this goes in the Lounge or Gaming Discussion Forum. I guess I'll stick with the latter.

    So what video game commercials do you find to be extremely weird?

    Personally it'd have to be the original Smash Bros' commercial, Atari's Mario Bros. commercial, and (dare I say it) the Legend of Zelda rap.

    Last URL edited out because of the stupid screamer it contained. ~Ko

    The old Super Mario World 2 commercial that was banned from tv. It had this guy eating a ton of food with this big swollen belly. Then it went on to mention that sometimes it just takes a little bit before you have to much. The guy eats a fingerfull of sour cream and then he explodes. It was awesome.

    This Final Fantasy X commercial isn't really bizarre, but it's one of the greatest commercials of all time, so I can't rob you of this.

    That Zelda one was pure ownage. Zelda, Link and a bunch of other random characters doing late 80/early 90's Japanese style 'cool' dancing is a-ok in my books.

    Oh and the FFIV commercial scares me.

    Square realised Chocobos don't actually exist - so they substituted them with the closest thing they could find - an Ostrich.

    If they showed that commercial in the states FFX would've never been taken seriously.

    Though the US lost odyssey commercial is a bit bizarre using LSD rock band known as White Rabbit from the 1960s in the commercial well the song.

    YouTube - Lost Odyssey US Extended TV Advertisement Commercial

    but this was back when all you need in rock was charisma, and no pretentious crap.
