Check out these 12 commercials for various games - they are hilariously awesome.
They don't make 'em like they used to!

Let's start out strong!  A commercial for Mario Bros. on Atari.
This song is just TOO catchy... Mario, WHERE ARE YOU!?     

The gravitas thrown around in this Punchout Ad is incredible.

That old classic we know and love, the SSB64 commercial.

I think the Japanese is what makes this Mario Kart ad awesome.

What a Thriller!  I think Michael Jackson choreographed this Zelda commercial for the Japanese.

I almost didn't include this because it was an ad for food. But.. you deserve to see it.
