I hope this catches on and makes a huge thread. I'll kick it off with a fond lil' commercial I remember seeing, and haven't seen in awhile.

Wow, somebody actually had a copy of the Secret of Evermore commercial? I think I saw that only once on TV along with the Secret of Mana one.

Here's one of my favorites

^ Holy shit bro, that Pole Position commercial is one of the funniest things I have ever seen in my life, hahaha.

I happen to love DOA 3 & 4. They are my favorite 3D fighters right behind Soul Calibur.
