In this thread, post your examples of [Retro] gaming in commercials.

I'll start:

Spyhunter car commercial

How did I miss this when it was new?

I've been noticing a lot of 80's music in commercials over the last few years.
Makes sense that other pop culture elements would be recycled as that generation reaches the age of expendable income of the big-ticket level.

That's actually a pretty neat commercial. Too bad it doesn't represent it's own car very well, every other car in that commercial looks 100 times cooler than theirs does, even the spyhunter car.

I don't have a video unfortunately but I remember a Canadian Tire commercial which had a kid on a couch playing a GBA that was upside down that I always found humorous.
