Tenjikuronin | 1,737 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 I thought it would be fun to start a thread showcasing old magazine ads for games -- from funny to outrageous to just plain strange -- Post them here!

G-type | 2,483 Posted September 6, 2022 Share Posted September 6, 2022 That Interplay ad is wild... looks like the prelude to some Eyes Wide Shut-type situation. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tanooki | 4,939 Posted September 7, 2022 Share Posted September 7, 2022 Here's some classics I only recently came across. The first one really sets the early tone as you can see. And the second, read the details and consider the year, the work done on that was nothing short of a small miracle (check the hour long video game historian video about it, it's nuts.) 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strange | 1,700 Posted September 21, 2022 Share Posted September 21, 2022 There was a Toys R Us ad making the rounds in various collecting groups on Facebook that was advertising some mid/late 80s consoles. I wish I had it on hand because I happened to look toward the bottom and it was my childhood TRU that printed the ad! They just tore the building down not too long ago. Surely I’ve got it somewhere. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
