Never watched the full version before, but it's probably my favorite gaming commercial of all time. It's like a proper sequel to MK95 that we never got (even though it was released before the movie):


Street Fighter II Turbo commercials were cool as hell too:





I also didn't know Resident Evil 4 Wii edition had a commercial with models of the main characters:



Do you remember any gaming promos that you're fond of?
 
Awesome idea for a thread! I remember that MK2 commercial fondly

This is also one that I liked. The game itself was pretty crappy and it was hard as hell, but I always liked the commercial

 
Never saw this one, but I remember the game. :) They couldn't give Robin the costume from the movie and from the commercial.
 
Nice, I love watching old video game commercials. Some of them were downright wacky and made by people who clearly knew nothing about video games.

here’s one I like
 
^Funny one. :)

Symphony of the Night commercial referenced Coppola's Dracula hard:

 
Surprised no one has posted the Yoshi's Island commercial.
 
When you have state of the art CGI cutscenes in the game, it's only natural you will use them for promos.

East vs. West.

Japan:

Probably the last Castlevania that felt like Castlevania.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Yeah it's nightmare fuel.
 


Yeah, Super Metroid was the last time I liked zero suit Samus. Starting with Zero Mission, they turned her into a sex doll with that blue latex outfit.

Super Metroid commercial is so good. Recreates prologue accurately and shows Samus as a kick-ass heroine.
 
I vaguely recall a couple of these Rik Mayall ads for Nintendo. The racing one kills me though.
