RE: Favorite videogame commercial? - ZpaceJ0ck0 - 08-19-2018
So I recently found this compilation of Japanese commercials for the Street Fighter series. Spanning across SF2 all the way to 5.
The ones I like the most are the Live-Action one featuring Guille and Dictador, the actors look spot-on. That and the animated Zero/Alpha commercials.
Also, I think I found something trivia worthy in this compilation.

It's always gonna be this one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1cfdbw9paC0
It was nice of PlayStation to commit a commercial to a fan who had passed away, while giving everyone else a reminder of the times they had playing the PS3. It was smart marketing, and touching in it's own way.

2 big ole thumbs up for "Michael"; I've seen the commercial but did not know he was a specific fan who passed away.

Michael was a popular member of the official PlayStation forums or something of that nature.

The best one is the American commercial for Smash 64.

Capcom made a puppet show featuring the Resident Evil 8 Village's rogue gallery. These were made in response to the people who said that RE7 was too scaryRE: Favorite videogame commercial? - ZpaceJ0ck0 - 05-28-2021
So this one showed up in my recommendations.
The BGM is Adventure Theme from Taiyo ni Hoero. You might have heard it in a Filthy Frank video.
The entire CM is a reference to the aforementioned show which was a popular crime drama in the 70's-80's.

Street Fighter V x deodorizing spray. Yes, this is real.

This Virtua Fighter 4 commercial, thought.
BTW, since this is a PS2 game might as well talk about this:
Have you ever wondered why Sony constantly talked about the PS2 as "the third place"? It was a markerting term. The PlayStation 2 was marketed as this gateaway to another dimension, so to speak. I believe the DYKG video on the PS2 has more info about it.
Here's another Virtua Fighter 4 commercial.

The marketing behind this game is pretty good.

This Halo 3: ODST commercial is just great.
