Game Commercials
Remember back in the day when companies would make awesome, and sometimes very weird, commercials to advertise their games? Please share your favorites here.

When I was little kid, this Super Smash Brothers commercial delighted me to no end:




Please tell me everyone remembers those epic Majora's Mask commercials. They were pretty intense!




Banjo-Tooie:




What's bothering me is I know there's got to be more lodged away in my brain that I recall watching. I'll leave these here for a start and hope you folks will add more.

More reasons to miss the 90s. Am I right?

I have really missed out on video game commercials. We don't get those in Sweden because the market doesn't seem big enough. When we DO get one it's only those typical "a happy family playing a game together" thing or a trailer.

Speaking of which, I hate the Nintendo adverts that have really poor actors saying random things like "Ohmahgeh, so fun" and "Beat that!" whilst playing some Nintendo game on their 3DSXLBBQ. It's just screaming "LOOK AT THIS, THIS WILL MAKE YOU SOCIAL AND HAVE FRIENDS"

Oh do I have something for you, while I don't personally remember any of the commercials made for video games (except Maple Story ones but that's only because they were exceptionally terrible) I do have a top ten video from JonTron that has some amazing commercials in it.



Also just so you understand what I mean about the Maple Story commercials I'll post one of them.
