That jingle's been running through my mind for the last week. We never even had it in England. I only ever heard it while I was on summer holiday in Atlanta in 1990 and it's suddenly stuck in my head 11 years later. It's been driving me crazy.
@dork432 Thanks. I actually searched for that already, but the picture shows up pretty dark on my computer and I didn't recognise the video. I should've been paying closer attention.
That is a keen observation. Although the time-line of these releases does not allow this to be true. Dr. Mario was released in 1990, Sonic was introduced in 1991, Tails in 1992, and Knuckles in 1994.
@dork432 or it might be because red blue and yellow are primary colors that are easily distinguishable.
nope youre right it was a conspiracy to defame sega by associating their characters with horrible diseases. sega themselves fell for it, that's why every sonic game for the past few years has been the video game equivalent of AIDS
!!! This is even weirder, though; not only do Tails and Knuckles have the same colors as two of the viruses, but the third has the color that Sonic was SUPPOSED to be, but was changed at the last minute to stand out from the background! See magazine screenshots of Sonic 1 for proof, or see sketches made by the original designers.
I've been looking for this commercial on here forever! Ahhh...the 90s! I was in 8th grade and obsessed with Nintendo and all the large amounts of hot gals at my suburban Jr. High school! Those were great times! Thanks for posting this!!
Thank god someone posted this commercial, I first heard this when I was like five, and I still to this day have the damn commercial jingle stuck in my head. Maybe now it will go away
This was a poor commercial. They only showed roughly 2 seconds of in-game footage, nor did they explain what the game is about. The execution was decent, but it seems they only wanted to promote the commercial itself, not the game.
I remember this commercial making me so excited to play the game. Then the first time I played it, I was SO disappointed. I learned the hard way what they meant by "it's not what you think". I wouldn't call it a poor commercial, it did it's job quite well actually. I would call it misleading for sure.
lol actually i dont rly like puzzle games either cuz im not rly too good at them ^^; but my mom is really good at them she used to love playing dr. mario and i remember watching her thinking "O.O wow i could never do that" xD
Holy shit i remember this! Every time someone mentioned the game, i'd break out singing this and imitate the viruses pitching a fit by flailing my arms.
Much love to Talkradar 88 for locking this in my brain forever.
