- tlo182, on 02/29/2008, -0/+17Same user/same thumbnail as the other front page N64 commercial story....i smell a conspiracy.
MISSION ACCOMPLISHED - Ryan2845, on 02/29/2008, -0/+16Both submitted by the same person no less.
- SemajReffahs, on 02/29/2008, -2/+17Nice find. Nintendo had a hot streak of ridiculous ads.
- koopertrooper, on 02/29/2008, -0/+11"your parents will hook it up"?! my parents didnt know ***** about wiring tvs, i had to when i was 7!!
- darkheartlor, on 02/29/2008, -0/+11Did you swallow?
- MiamiRox, on 02/29/2008, -1/+10Who knew an Italian plumber loved rice with chopsticks so much.
- inactive, on 02/29/2008, -1/+10"Minnesota" is one hell of a typo for "Japan"
- chthonicdark, on 02/29/2008, -1/+9I love how in the old days they hooked up a whole wall of TV's just to get a big 100" screen
- undershirt, on 02/29/2008, -0/+7Also, I noticed a hidden gem on the last commercial. Mario does the tail-grab move on Bowser, which they actually implemented a decade later on the N64, haha.
- daftie, on 02/29/2008, -0/+7(I couldn't get this in quick enough for the edit)
If you own a site that hits digg's frontpage, please place a "Status 307 - Temporary Redirect" to the google cache of your site. You will not have turned away anyone, saved alot of people alot of annoyance and saved yourself alot of bandwidth. - dasmonki, on 02/29/2008, -0/+6peach is such a babe
- nonrate, on 02/29/2008, -0/+6Nintendo originally marketed to children between the ages six to twelve years old... and people in their late teens onward were not the core market. Today, the core market is late twenties to early thirties. Times have-a-changed.
- coheedcollapse, on 02/29/2008, -0/+6When I see crap like this I get so pissed that I was a stupid OCD little kid that made sure that no commercials made it into my recordings when i was taping stuff. Man it'd be fun to go back and watch all of that.
- jon30041, on 02/29/2008, -0/+4My friend recorded a MST3k episode, and got some Dell commercials
Holy crap. So... pathetic. Those machines... thank god I don't have to use one again... - BlueSkyfish, on 02/29/2008, -1/+5The english Zelda one is painful to watch.
- retawd, on 02/29/2008, -0/+4Next was Mike Tyson's Rape, then Mike Tyson's Ear Gnaw. Coming soon: Mike Tyson's Bankruptcy!
- DreKor, on 02/29/2008, -0/+4But they're still targeting the same people. Which is nice. Since I am those people.
- undershirt, on 02/29/2008, -0/+3I really like the Super Mario Kart commercial. I would go crazy if they remade the game with that cartoon-style animation.
- appleseed1234, on 02/29/2008, -1/+4Mario where are you?
- hydratedsquash, on 02/29/2008, -1/+4I didnt know they had hired a guy from Minnesota to do all the voice overs
- digggggggggg, on 02/29/2008, -1/+4But to do that, they had to fight MIKE TYSON.
- Bologner, on 02/29/2008, -0/+3Am I the only one that the videos stop playing after 2 seconds?
- mbthompson, on 02/29/2008, -0/+3This gets me excited for these games again, darn nostalgia.
- woofers07, on 02/29/2008, -0/+3I remember wanting and playing those games, but don't remember seeing any of those commercials.
- Coffeedemon, on 02/29/2008, -0/+3Some kid probably hauled a TV down off the table onto himself back in the day.
- rockmanac, on 02/29/2008, -0/+2But where's the Tetris commercial?? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Pk7unUQQ1o
Of course, judging by some of the comments, I'm doubting some of y'all are old enough to remember that commercial. - jsin1276, on 02/29/2008, -0/+2Brings me back to the good ol' days of video gaming.
- RustyJ, on 02/29/2008, -1/+3Your parents hook it up!
NOW YOU'RE PLAYING WITH POWER - TWiThead, on 02/29/2008, -2/+4Not Nintendo-related, but entertaining nonetheless:
http://youtube.com/watch?v=Om84Zc4-KcQ - chthonicdark, on 02/29/2008, -0/+2the power of 200 wall mounted CRT TV's in your bedroom just like Mike Tyson
- SLockhart, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1What's with the "You're parents help you hook it up". First. I was quite capable of hooking up a nintendo when I was 12 and second, I don't think my parents were.
- thewrathoffluff, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Did anyone else get sidetracked by the related videos on the side?
- hellbent88, on 03/01/2008, -0/+1"go link/ get some!"
- daridave, on 02/29/2008, -1/+2f'ing spammer. You put your site's logo on there, you submit two stories, you're just trying to make pub for your crappy site. Burried as spam. Give it up, you're an open book.
- FreddieD, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Yeah, not a good marketing slogan. I never responded well to threats.
- TheUngod, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Is the schizophrenic guy in the Zelda commercial the same guy from Upright Citizens Brigade? he looks so familiar
- Digisphere, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1This on actually has some pretty nice graphics for that time
Now you play with power!
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x3rPDZm_1rI - yacks, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Does anyone find it odd that in the Japanese commercials for Zelda.. the "real-life" Zelda is played by a girl? Guess Link was always a little feminine.
- Hidama, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1"Nice graphics! I'd like to get my hand on that game!"
Really? Scripting a real life conversation like that? - XeroKool, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1I remember the first time I saw the SSB64 commercial. It was sooo random lol One of the best.
- Coffeedemon, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Right below this link on the "gaming" page.
- koteeoz, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1I love how many of the commercials say "Let your parents hook it up for you" at the end. It was my brother and I who hooked up the electronics normally, haha.
- SupraKing777, on 02/29/2008, -0/+1Shouldn't be down - it just is having trouble with thousands trying to refresh at once. Just wait a second a click refresh a time or two and you should be good to go.
- inactive, on 04/10/2008, -0/+1The good ol days
- Disastorm, on 03/02/2008, -0/+1Nintendo owns, but personally I'd like to see a top old school Sega commercials. Honestly, their commercials were probably alot more insane than Nintendo's especially the Japanese Segata Sanshiro ones.
- portos12, on 06/17/2008, -0/+1That were the days my friend:
