Saw the Mario 64 commercial? I do. I was really young, but that's probably my first video-game related memory. I think I said something along the lines of "That's... like... 3-D! No, it is3-D!"

What about you?

That was like, what, 1996? I've been playing video games since 1987/88. Yeah, I remember seeing it but just vaguely. I was like 11 when Mario 64 came out. [img]tongue.gif[/img]

Yes, I remember the SM64 commercial, but it's just random clips from the game, according to my memory. I also remember Nintendo's old slogan, "Play it Loud". It's way better than "Get N or Get Out" and "Only for Nintendo". I miss the "Play it Loud" days, so many memories. Plus a hazzy memory of the SMB commercial, where a bunch of kids in different colour clothes formed what looked like Mario's face from above while chanting Mario, that's probably the first VG commercial I remember. Then there's the Sega dissing Nintendo commerical, showed a bunch of guys playing gameboy in a green shaded room while a fat guy ate pickles, while the GameGear guys had colour. And then there was that Aussie Gameboy Color commerical I downloaded, the one where DK got his fur blown off by an explosion.

I remember it, but it is kinda foggy it took over the Song of Super Smash Bros:
You and me, and me for you no matter how you toss the dice, it had to be, the only one for me for you is me and me for you, so happy together...
*Pikachu went flying across the field.*
Ahh, the past...

I don't really remember the Super Mario 64 commercial, but I do remember seeing the ones for Super Mario 3, Super Mario World, Super Mario All-Stars, Super Mario Land 2, Super Mario RPG, and Paper Mario.

All I remember was the Mario64 / Got milk crossover. That was one of the stupidest ones ever, but funny as mess.
