TurboGrafx-16 commercials?

[Psycho Punch]

Since I always end up finding "new" commercials for the Turbo when casually browsing youtube, I thought it would be cool to have a thread where we (try to) list all commercials aired in the US... maybe even JP ones.

I'll begin with the 8-bit vs 16-bit Adventure Island from TTi that I found today:

(sorry if there is a similar thread but I couldn't find it)

Cool Splatterhouse ad. Look at all those upcoming games!

For one of the better looking games on the system, they sure should a dull level for the comparison.

Anyway I think we've done one of these threads before but I don't think I've seen that ad. There are some awesome PC Engine ads as well, but I'm too lazy to dig up the thread.

EDIT: Well I gave it the old college try and couldn't find the thread. Here's the PC Engine commercial playlist though.

I never saw this!  I love the animated Bonk scenes.  Also amused by Hani in the Sky and Gunhead in Sadler's post.

The video I saw the most was probably the Lords of Thunder promo video, my friend actually got a copy when it was new, he still has the tape I think.  And you can't forget this classic:

funny thing is the turbo adds didnt tend to identify themselves well
i was seeing TG and GENI ads and couldnt tell them apart till sega started throwing sonic and their name allot

Hey Yandman,

Your link was broken, but I found this one with a quizk re-type. These commercials made me Turbo-Crazy when I was a kid, especially the Legendary Axe commercial:

That was great!

Can someone tell me if this commercial was a reworking of an earlier commercial? Thanks in advance.

I pulled together a whole bunch of adverts from YouTube into one video a while back

I did not edit or perform normalization to the audio so this jumps all over the show.

Credit for all of the videos goes to the original uploaders including Gameads, ASSEMbler and here!

Not sure the timeline on that commercial compared to earlier ones. But I do indeed remember seeing it in my youth.

I'll have to watch all the commercials SuperPlay linked to and see which ads are 100% unique verses partial recycling of old footage.
