80's Zelda Commercial

[Comicblood15]

It's the Legend of Zelda and it's really bad

the creatures in the game are really rad

[hokbopha]

@Comicblood15 do you mean that

[Comicblood15]

@hokbopha Hell no! If you saw AVGN's Nintendo Power video then you would know why I said that.

[Ticothesquirrel1]

@Comicblood15 That's not true... You obviously have no taste in games.

[KingdomChronicles]

Was that really necessary at the beginning?

[Derbundle12]

WIKI-WIKI-WIK

[MultiBluewaves]

This is corny

[Wolfheart247]

I love old graphics. They have this certain charm that realistic stuff doesn't.

[300jimmi]

the smosh one was cooler

[67roverrovert]

Awsome game series but terrible commercials in the process

[HCkev]

0:15

The cartridge is gray, and the power/reset buttons are black. WTF

[visor109]

Then they discovered women.....I hope!

[Ontoe]

Wow...who would've thought that this would become the best game in history.

[jakeh2034]

Yeah, nerdy white boy rapping about LoZ and failing... They're lucky this game was LoZ, and generally awesome on its own.

But I get what they were trying to say, "Video gaming isn't just for über nerds. Look at this "cool dude", he's enjoying the awesomeness of gaming, while super geek sits awkwardly close to him on the couch." ... I think just: "Legend of Zelda, Buy it!" flashing on the screen while they show clips of the game; could have sold more than this commercial.

[balok94]

"whow!! nice Graphics" the true is... That graphics sucks ass!! xD

[JNugent74]

@balok94 - The graphics were incredible for the time. Trust me, one day Xbox360, PS3, and Wii graphics will all be made fun of by the next generation. They'll be like, these graphics really suck, how could you play such crap? And you'll be the old man saying, 'What do you mean, those games rule!'

[emhean]

Awesome graphics!

[anthony88989]

Hahaha raping and nerds hAh:D

[JNugent74]

@anthony88989 - I don't usually harp on spelling around here, but there is a huge difference between 'rapping' (you know, what rappers (the musical kind) do. and 'raping' (which is something creepy 'rapists') do. Spelling doesn't always count, but it really counts here.

[anthony88989]

@JNugent74 haha i know. it was about one of the comments below me that said "this is why raping and nerds dont mix"

[JNugent74]

@anthony88989 - Gotcha!

[GuyHesoo]

All old Nintendo commercials have Rap songs.

[yari015]

this is why raping and nerds don't mix

[ochocinco8531]

@yari015 funny how one letter can change the entire meaning of your comment.

[yari015]

@ochocinco8531 i know right

[RockmanYoshi]

@yari015 lol wut

[JNugent74]

@yari015 - I've already educated one person in this thread regarding this, but please... check your dictionary for the important difference between 'rapping' and 'raping'. It is vital that you understand the difference.

[yari015]

@JNugent74 ok?

[JNugent74]

@yari015 - Ok.

[yari015]

@JNugent74 so yeah

[wowpockopa]

NICE GRAFFICKS

[Vgamer311]

why do my parents need to help me plug a game into the tv then the wall and press on?

[gplechuckiii]

@Vgamer311 Because in 1986 the back o the TV was a mystery not only to most kids, but adults too. Not to mention that the way the NES was hooked up to their parents color TV was a little different than the way it was hooked up to the kid's portable TV.

[cottonvibes]

why would the cool kids want anything these dorks are playing

[alexross8]

Epic graphics..

[ChopinSRN]

My parents never helped me hook it up :(

[BrandonScott1001]

All I have to say is .......... -_- lol

[Somethingcrappy]

the parody is better(watch the response)

[chucky666jack666]

@Somethingcrappy lol dude that was like so lol, but why is like the video so small lol :)

[Somethingcrappy]

@chucky666jack666 idk. Ask the video creatot.

[chucky666jack666]

@Somethingcrappy oh thought that you did it lol, im smart

[Somethingcrappy]

@chucky666jack666 yeah lol you're welcome.

[flippinfl00b]

AWESOME! INTENSE! TOTALLY WICKED! *shred guitar solo* YYYEAAAAHHHHH!!!!

[ElvenRaptor]

Intense!

[williamnakama]

WHOA NICE GRAPHICS!!!!

Me: Uhhh

[TheJosh111b]

@williamnakama graphics aren't every thing

[williamnakama]

@TheJosh111b i know im just saying xD Zelda Ocarina of Time had not good graphics but its my favorite game :D

[kinkajuu1]

@williamnakama it had great graphics for its time and wish that they remade ocarina of time, keeping the same style of graphics, atleast you said it was your fav game or the internet would break

[AsteriskIV]

Wait, did he say "Yeah! Go Link, yeah-get some!"?

[TheVikingBlack]

lmfao that is the best commercial ever created

[patriotgoatmam]

It's amazing that you people laugh at the NES graphics (and they were good for the time of course) But after 20 years we're gonna be laughing at the 360, Wii and PS3's graphics.

But hey graphics don't really mean anything don't they? They're nice but they're just icing on the cake. The gameplay counts the most.

Also this commercial is amazingly lame, yet funny.

[finalEpsilon92]

"WHOA! NICE GRAPHICS!" <--all NES graphics were nearly the same. Does not compute.

[finalEpsilon92]

@babbler254 tis a great game...but there is no way in hell they are "nice graphics".

[NintendoMastery]

Did they want them to look like fags?

[Zgamer618]

I can't wait until this game comes out.

[bibblytib]

WHOA NICE GRAPHICS!!! (back when pixels were jsut so great)

[Zelos101]

Best rap song ever. Also the old zelda is intense

[REDTEAM22003]

With the NES a nerd can be friend with a guy with rip jeans.....who knew

[zakabajak94]

the blond one sounds like McLovin.

[VileGlassPrincess]

I'D LIKE TO GET MY HANDS ON THAT GAME

[HyugaStone87]

Why would Nintendo purposly make it seem nerdy to play Zelda?

[link4151]

wow nice graphics

[85ranger10]

The Legend of Zelda isn't really bad. But these kids are.

[tdiharold5265]

i wonder what ever happens to people like this in some nintendo commercial and now they coul be anywhere

[AmericanEvita]

I played Nintendo in the 80's! It was so much fun. Being a kid of the 80's was really great. Good times, great memories. I miss the 80's; it can never be like the 80's again

[hypershadics]

those are nice graphics TT

[LunchboxingForGold]

HAHAHAHAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!! Perfect.

[evinoog]

Aren't the buttons on the NES Control Deck Dark Grey? In this video they're black...

[iluvfatchx]

LOL "WHOA NICE GRAPHICS!" yea right! 8 bit, if they only knew what the future held.

[gr8x1]

@iluvfatchx right? his reaction to today's game graphics would be way ridiculous.

[haxboxproductions]

My parents didn't know how to hook it up. LOL!

[iluvfatchx]

@haxboxproductions i know neither did mine

[haxboxproductions]

@iluvfatchx In fact I was the one hooking almost everything up in the house.

[iluvfatchx]

@haxboxproductions yea me too, what i hated was when my pops would get mad at us to turn it off already and we were all like hold on hold on, im almost done with the boss or level, he would just unplug that shit or pull the tape out with out even turning it off the proper way. we'd just be there like NOOOOOOO!!! good time good times

[MrMuggles4Waffles]

this would so have made me want it. that rap was 'wicked', and the graphics ARE just insane

[animespartan2]

ARRRRRRGH MY EYES!!!!

[713JZA]

Goddammit.

[Sensitivite1]

whoa nice graphics! i.d like 2 get my hands on that!

[Leatherbubba]

What a couple of fags.

[tubelev]

long time since my parents helped me hock it up...

[kratosdj95]

The graphic of this game is like Halo 2

[SardaukarPrime]

HOLY SHIT! This is worse than the "Under $50" rap from Atari... LOL!

[lbgundead]

TIGHTEN UP TEH GRAPHIX

[zukoluvr4]

yes...those ARE nice graphics (sarcasm)...

[dondongo86]

WOAAAAAH! NICE GRAPHICS!

[shadowmario744]

Im scared O_O

[CirrusBluesummers]

I guess since video games were still rather new the marketing execs didn't really know what they were doing.

[closer9999999]

I think their parent's helped them hook it up.

[animeizmylife]

its official white kids cant rap

[khdude2000]

neither can blacks?

[rachelo521]

@animeizmylife normally i would say thats racist, but after seeing this commercial your right.....

[droctoman]

lmao

[aleveltoolow]

Lmfao! Epic Noobs

[Alkakaizer]

WORST RAP EVAR!!! LOL

[WeaselKing1000]

@Alkakaizer On the contrary. Considerably more enjoyable to listen to than just about anything churned out by the shite-mills of (c)rap. Talentless morons who can't make their own music but have to steal other people's and don't have a thought in their heads except 'aw yeah, mo'fuckaz'? Please.

[Alkakaizer]

but i dont like it, thats all thats my opinion, besides its old, and why your telling me that?

[WeaselKing1000]

@Alkakaizer Because I take every opportunity to vent my negative feelings about rap. You just happened to be the unlucky victim this time, so no hard feelings. I'm not actually saying this ad is good! :)

[theabyscalls]

its bad enuf to be funny though

[mrshep357]

@Alkakaizer he he lol lmao he he ha lol

[123123sora]

lol how did one of the best-selling franchises start like THIS???? just look and listen to them rap. i agree with guysseriously.

[GuysSeriously]

Jesus fuck how did Nintendo ever sell anything after this? look at these kids they're the biggest dorks in history

[BardandQueen]

@GuysSeriously in the begining all gamers were considered 'dorks' XD but yes i have to agree with you on the biggest by far selection lol. i actually remember this commerical ...cripes lol

[CtrlRm]

@GuysSeriously you're an idiot, this was almost 30 years ago, things change.

[WolfMyst]

@GuysSeriously How old are you? The definition of "cool" changes every 10 years dude.

[captainbadd]

@GuysSeriously Everybody looked like dorks in the 80s.

[nadrojeggel]

@GuysSeriously

are you kidding? the kid on the left was the coolest kid of the 80's!

[ryanlink4]

@GuysSeriously -.- Its called a joke when people actually understood jokes.

[mra1996]

@GuysSeriously The thought was , back in the 80s , if you sold something and wanted to make it ''cool'' u had to promote it with the ''new'' fancy style of music , called rap :)

[Rosemints]

"Go Link! Get some"!

lol

[BlueKnightNight]

Did he say, "Nintense"?

[eeprompoos]

i totaly new they were gonna rap

[TSLuciaMiel]

like how they threw in the wierd names of the monsters, like someone who hadn't played the game would understand the lyrics

[GamesOplenty]

those aren't weird names. those are what they're called.

[GamesOplenty]

oh, sorry, read it wrong. lol, srry

[TSLuciaMiel]

[chrisbg99]

[xChrisBoulterx]

For sure! These guys definitely only made people that already played the game want to play it more because they know the game is so awesome, but if I were to watch this, not knowing what Zelda was and that kid was trying to get me into it, I would say 'No thanks!' :D
