Classic Game and Computer Commercials

While browsing the Internet recently, I found some old game and computer commercials. They were quite fun to watch and in case you haven’t seen them yourself, please have a look below. Should be some real gems there. :) Enjoy!

This is the commercial for an old Atari game called Pole Position. Can you make out the difference between the video footage and actual in-game graphics? ;)

The commercial above was aired in 1985 on Australian Television. Are you keeping up with the Commodore? :) Catchy music!

Amiga commercial. We’re talking the Pointer Sisters and astronauts!

It’s the commercial for Ms. Pacman. Good stuff!

There are plenty of similar movies available on YouTube. I also stumbled across Commodore Billboard on one of my adventures on the Internet. Check it out via this link: http://www.commodorebillboard.de/

Hope you enjoyed the movies! They clearly show how much things have changed during the last decades. :)
