What is ones you favor the most over the years?

Mine would be one from the arcades - Mortal Kombat:

Thought it was hilarious. Remember seeing it around '92 on the boardwalk arcade room. Fond memories.. surprised it's still out there.

Also, don't forget an arcade classic - those Mario Bros:

The ad for the original Super Smash Bros. had me and my dad laughing our asses off.



Oh, and the Mario Party one!


I also liked the GBA ads they had in the early 2000's.


(There was an alternate version I remember from around the Christmas season, where it was just the little girl throwing the coin into the fountain and the guys diving for it, and it zoomed out to show the Wario statue and you heard Wario's voice singing "'Tis the season to be greedy".)


I miss Nintendo having advertising chutzpa.
