  • I wonder if Xbox 360 has "Blast Processing" lol

  • my first cool console game.. ohh my child time.. but now... PC is THE BEST PLATFORM

  • Love it some of my all time favourites were on mega drive =] sonic roadrash physco pinball =]

  • oooooooh 16 bit!

  • Yep... Sega sure showed Nintendo, didn't they? What's that... My brother has about 20 Sonic The hedgehog rehashes for just about every Nintendo system and handheld since the Gameboy Advance? xD

  • What A Waste? Ironic advertising!!

  • Ahh a gone but not forgotten era the legend will never die

  • Awesome compilation. The best part: Sega Does what Nintendon't, hahaha.

  • Sega still has it's followers (including me) and they know it. I think Sega is testing the gaming market all the time to see where they are failing and what they are good at, so if they decide to compete again, they'll be ready. 

  • @vanmearlantkid ok... 1. Ur a noob 2. Die 3. Genesis does what nintendon't 4. Sonic ALWAYS wins mario 5. Dreamcast was about 50000 times better than gamecube 6. Thought Saturn didnt sell very well, it was better than N64 in every way, like n64s ancient cartridge system compared to saturns cd system. KO. Sega wins.

  • @C0NELRAD Alright, both of you can shut the fuck up. People have their preference. Sega was generally more technologically advanced, while Nintendo was left in the dust. That isn't to say Nintendo didn't compete, they still tried their best and created the best they could with their technology, even though there was some shit games. Although Nintendo kind of went down hill when Sega went out, I would love to see Sega come back, competition kept Nintendo on its toes.

  • @Spirrwell .... we didnt ask ur opinion

  • @C0NELRAD And your point is? I don't care if you didn't ask. He put out his opinion, you verbally abused him, and you reply with your opinion, even though he didn't ask for that either.

  • @Spirrwell and u just shut the fuck up.

  • @C0NELRAD I will if you will, so, shut the fuck up.

  • nintendo is 10000000 times better that sega they have sont the guy with the most facked up games

    nintendo has mario the game herro with no crappy games

  • GENESIS DOES...... n't have mario

  • @2RandomStudios actually it has. lol

  • @JustasPikelis Example?

  • @2RandomStudios Super Mario World xDDDD

  • @JustasPikelis Ok there's one, now too bad all the other Sega consoles missed out on every other mario game :)

  • 240p for Extreme HD !!!

  • lol @ SEGA!!

  • Them robbing bastards. Where were my free speakers?

  • Best console wars ever!

  • 0:57-0:59 LOL! I loved that bit of the original commercials. Saved all my cents for this and got bought it, man I loved this thing, it was the best thing when I was young.

  • 02:15 looks like Doctor Richtoven from Black Ops Zombies

  • At 0:32 the comparison would have been a American Genesis v/s an European SNES (preetier but slower than her american counterpart, the american SNES)

  • Sorry, i mean: the european slogan could have been "MegaDrive does"

  • The european slogan could have been "Megradrive does"

  • @KoolebraDDR true same for Asian COuntries, We call it Sega Mega Drive

  • Droid stole their commercials!! ( Droid Does!) look it up

  • HOLY SHIT 16 BIT GRAPHICS!!!!!!!!!!!! WHEN I WAS A KID ALL WE HAD WAS....WHAT KIND OF GRAPHICS DO WE HAVE NOW? lol i love watching old commericals, they're so funny and cheesy :D

  • @ImaGameProfessional now it's 256 bit...

  • So if i buy a Sega Genisis and Mortal Kombat Shiobi 3 and Marvels X-Men i can get SLAVES!!! OH HELL YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • At the time as a kid, Sega was very much like a Rated R movie that you needed to see but couldn't. It had a rep built solely on their hype, and their games played very differently than the NES (1 extra button!). But I'm glad I chose the NES.

  • You can see why Sega were considered the "cooler" company when these commercials were around. (I love both Nintendo and Sega before anyone freaks out)

  • @acquiesce67 But it was a bit of a mistake on the "Blast processing" thing, You had to wait to start up a Genesis, SNES started instantly!

  • I HAVE GENESIS! =DDDDD

  • im gonna cry omg so much nostalgia

  • Isn't it kinda funny that back then, SEGA did nothing but ignite console war, and now, they're pretty much Nintendo's bitch? And that now we don't care about how many bits our consoles have?

  • @96ZB

    What Do you mean by "Nintendo's bitch". SEGA is a thrid-party developer and makes games for all platforms.

  • Like a well played chess match, in the end Nintendo won. Sad to see that such an awesome company went from making great consoles and games to making mediocre 3rd party titles nowadays...

  • i want those stereo speakers

  • "Genesis does what nintendon't."

    Mario: Hay-a,That's-a hurt full!

    Sonic: U Mad bro?

  • @TheParasiticArmor Well sure! It goes well with your Sorny tv!

  • 0:13 - Michael Jackson?... I love the guy, but... That was a pretty damn pointless cameo for him. Was it advertising for Moonwalker?

  • @ThatGamer360 Yes. In the early days of the genesis especially celebrity endorsements were a big part of sega's campaign. There was no Sonic yet. Sega had a lot of sports and other titles that played off celebrity appearances and endorsements.

  • Those droid commercials are such a rip off of sega

  • We miss you SEGA.

    Kevin Butler is a faggot compared with the 90's sega division marketing.

  • Ahh, yes. The limited edition SEEGAH Megah Dwive. Only availible in Europe.

  • Yes get rid of that super nintendo, a system that has actaul GAMES, and get a sega cd, where most of the games are more like like watching a bad movie than playing a game, it'll be the best investment you've ever made.

  • haha oh lord. i miss this

  • Lol I remember when 16-bit was "life like".

  • genesis DUH!

  • Pwesented by SEGA...heh...heh... SAMBA DE AmIGI!!!

  • did that nigga @ the end say "SEE-GA"? lol

  • genesis one of my alltime favorite sega consoles... well ofter the dreamcast

  • Ever notice Sega Compared literrally everything to nintendo

  • go to your address bar and put win between you and tube

  • ..Did any 10yo boy actually KNOW what '16 bit graphics technology' MEANT?

  • @Reaps51

    I think the general idea was "more colors and bigger characters".

    And explosions.

  • Nintendo was being very smart in the 90s. While Sega was making the Sega/Mega cd for the genesis/mega drive and the 32x, Nintendo just stuck with the snes and things like the super FX chip built right into snes cartridges. another reason is that nintendo just made excellent games like super mario world, donkey kong country, Zelda a link to the past, super metroid, and star fox, and even the unreleased star fox 2.

  • @icygamer598 Nintendo was far from smart in the 90's lol they pretty much gave birth to Playstation as we know it, not the best thing to do really lol but they did do some great things for gaming like they brought it back to life in America.

  • Genesis Does Fail!!!

  • Seega?

  • After The Fall Of The Genesis, Nintendo And Sega Are Now Friends Again (With Sega Producing Games For Current Nintendo Gaming Systems Such As Nintendo DS And Nintendo Wii) As Well As Creating Games For Current Gaming Systems (XBOX 360 And Playstation 3). Sega Is Currently Working To Bring Back The Children's Genesis Game (Scholastic's The Magic School Bus Space Exploration Game) As A Virtual Console Game For The Nintendo Wii.

  • whats a nintendon't?

  • @mariopianofreak that was their advertising slogan, they were in competition with Nintendo, so they made claims saying they had the superior hardware/graphics by saying "Sega does what Nintendon't" just making two words into one lol

  • @Z3CHYD i was just making a joke :) i know the commercial and its very catchy!

  • @mariopianofreak ah ok I wasn't sure haha, you'd be amazed some of the people on youtube's I.Q. levels lol

  • @Z3CHYD i know what you mean some people ask stupid questions because they dont know what google is

  • @mariopianofreak Well it's the truth about the 8-bit Nintendo. You see Genesis DOES, what Nintendo DOES NOT. The only thing Nintendo did manage to beat Sega at was sucking. :P

  • @RunandGunPictures if you read my other comments you didnt have to waste your time writing this comment

  • welco

    metot

    henex

    tlevel

    thumbs up if U saw

  • Did you see that?! He journeyed into the mega world!!!

    These old commercials are hilarious. Try looking up old internet commercials. Those are hilarious as well, like one provider was so enthusiastic in an ad, saying they had 50,000 subscribers.

  • 0:16 the guy was speaking like a geek

  • so what does blast processing do????

  • The genesis was awsome until it made a whole bunch of other crap that was pointless

  • Nothing like the console wars of the 90's.

    Did nintendo ever make commercials trashing sega? I cant remember.

  • @Equint77 yes they did once, donkey kong country commercial.

  • @kokman73, @TenpaJyosai, @Tkachenko10, @robertkrosl, @TJofDaWestunes, @dogeymon83, @alexlandsbergs, @Paladintrump, @christy2drag, @MsChihiroSan, @butlerboy540, @MichaelBradus, @baltostella, @doomKthnx, & @50GUNOTKILLAH50: That "16-Bit life-like graphics" remark was really targeting towards the NES.

    It was very funny, though, if going by today's standards.

  • Loooove

  • It's not "Sea-Gah". It's "Say-Guh". FUCKING SAY-GUH!!!

  • I liked Super Nintendo as much as I did whit Genesis.

  • I hope that kid doesn't think that buying a video game system will make him less nerdy.....xD

  • It only does everything.

  • As I understand it, the SNES was originally going to have an even faster processor than the Genesis, but Nintendo decided to go with a slower one in order to cut down production costs. In the end, it was probably the best move for us gamers, as the Genesis's speed advantage gave it a unique edge against the SNES, resulting in great games for both consoles.

  • lol live like 16bit graphics ahhh someday there gonna make fun of us for 1080p action

  • lol these ads are so over the top

  • most advanced video game system in the universe MY ASS! its called X box douche bags...

  • @skidush1 douch bag these commercials are older than your dirty ass , back then these consoles were like the xbox and ps3 , besides if someone from the futures could hear wat you just said , they would laugh at you cause you play xbox...obviously in the future videogames are going to advance

  • @kokman73 what, these commercials are old!!! REEEEEALY? you dont say fuck wit

    am i not allowed to laugh at this console just because its old?grow UP dickhead i think that you should have better things to do than to than comment back on a comment that U think is stupid. So Fuck off, oh and i may as well add in Douche Bag

    while im at it...

  • @skidush1 Mother fucking retard just go suck your xboxes DIck

  • @kokman73 YEAH real mature, asshole, how old are you 10?

  • @skidush1 skidush1 you really are stupid

    you just have to accept that kokman73 is right and you are wrong

    technology was not as good as it was now. dipshit prick :)

  • @51rickjames oh, right, Im stupid, ok, yep and his name is kokman73, cock . man

    and i am d dipshit prick for making a comment on old technology? WTF? of course technology isn't as good now, thankyou sooo much for stating the obvious. oh and by the way, your really need to work on your insults: dipshit prick? come on my grandma could do better than that :)

  • @skidush1 OH WELL JUST SAYING THAT YOU WERE WRONG

    DAMN CAPS LOCK

  • 2:57 "Thousands of colours" - that's simply a lie. The Genesis has a palette of only 512 colours and shows up to 64 of them at the same time.

  • Kinda funny that who "Playstation is what Wiisn't" thing, especially with the Kevin Butler Move commercials.

  • at first i wondered why console commercials don't smear the competition anymore, then i realized that there aren't even any commercials at all for actual consoles anyway

  • A Sega commercial is basicly this:

    ZOMG BETTER GRAPHICS THAN NES U MUST BUY OUR CONSOLE BICHEZZZ!!!!! SEGA IS BETTER THAN NINTENDO BECAUSE YOU HAVE TO SPEND MORE MONEY!! :D!!!

    Sega sure is a bunch of attention whores who can't become popular by themselves.

  • @Random90sKid Oh please. Sega was making electronic video games before Nintendo and they made home consoles with cartridge based games at the same time (1983) and so what if they beat Nintendo to the 16-bit generation? Nintendo was a monopoly in the 80's they made almost all the big developers do games for them only saying they couldn't make game for anyone else if they made games on the NES. It was disgusting and would be illegal today. All Sega did was fight back and catch up with a giant.

  • this is so nostalgic. ahhhhhhhh

  • @simonlee000 SEGA never "started" the Console wars. They merely entered it.

    They DID break Nintendo's monopoly on the market though.

  • @Goten1986

    And as much as their add-on failures are mentioned, the fact that they broke Nintendo's monopoly and went head to head with biggest company of their day, should also be remembered.

  • @dunnono00 Definitely. although, I kinda like the 32X. It has one of my favorite games of all time on it (Knuckles Chaotix).

  • 1:09 - Mortal Kombat? Surprised that he can...didn't parents try to have that game barred from children? I mean, even the arcade version was bloody!

  • wtf is seega

  • lmfao!  James "Buster" Douglas Knockout Boxing!!!! Oh, lord.

  • did he say see-ga?

  • Why do they have all the jumbled up text at the end like at 1:26?

  • "Cremation or Burial?"

    "Burn it!"

  • That sounds like Michael Clark Duncan in the first commercial as the announcer.

  • MEGADRIVE! from seaga..

  • the guy with glasses look like a young seth green

  • The good ol' 90s. Everyone talked trash of everyone else!

  • I said chocolate chip...

  • life like 16 bit graphics..

  • YOU KNOW I NEVER THOUGH I COULD THINK SEGA IS ANY GAYER THAN IT WAS BUT AFTER WATCHING THESE AD'S I CAN SEE WHY NINTENDO STILL DOMINATES TO THIS DAY! "BLAST PROSSESSING " MY ASS! WHAT THE CRAP I CAN ALWAYS SPEED UP MY GAMES WITH A GAME GENIE. OR A GAME WIZARD ACTION REPLAY LOL

  • 16 bit graphics? LAME!

  • Good times...

  • Genesis plays you!

  • when games were games!

  • it's sounds like they're saying nigga

  • 2nd best console ever (xbox 360 better)

  • LOL 16-bit real life graphics.

  • genesis doesn't!!!!!!! lol id love to see nintendo making a commercial on that

  • 3:14 Did he just say SEEGA

  • Buying a Sega Genesis console will NOT make the bullies be nice to you, sorry kids. ):

  • Games consoles nowadays don't advertise how the graphics are and the system... Just imagine all the info on wikipedia said in a console advert! lol

  • 30 Years ago you look at sega and think, Best graphics ever!!! now we just look at ps3, or x-box... (PS3 FTW)

  • @123gas321 First of all, it was more like 20 years ago; and in another 20 years youll be looking at the PS3 thinking "What terrible graphics!"

  • @123gas321 Yes but 30 years from now, all those going to look like dump too.

  • ah, sega in its prime, now its not really even a company anymore, its just a clusterfuck owned by microsoft sony and nintendo ironically

  • @MrProjectFedora well just to say it's SONY's fault that shit's like that now i mean look at everything that they've done with tech HDTV's and PS3.

  • lol. can't do this on nintendo eh? well then why is sega the one who don't even make consols anymore, and are considered a 2nd rate game design company? ;p;

  • @Plingdom No consoles = more platforms = better sell rate! also, more money to develop games and not systems.. how would you like it if you had to buy a SEGA console JUST to play SEGA games?

  • @123gas321 thats why you get 3rd party developers, like what nintendo does.

  • Genesis DOES

  • @cooldude72597  Genesis DID!

  • @FractalBolt Lmao xD

  • damn i miss the 90's

  • to me i think genesis was the shit back than it was the only consol with there games having blood grafits super nentedo was aight but genesis arcade feeling i wanna thank my brother who convins me to get a genesis instad of a snes witch i got it later on

  • new one: Genesis sucks

  • @jensssen hater

  • 2:39-2:15 LOL you just dont burn a sega genesis (maybe nintendo) but you dont do that

  • SEGA!

  • Aw man, the Europeans and the Japanese don't get to hear the Genesis does what Nintendon't commercials back when the system came out, because there, the system is called Mega Drive, which is the actual original name, while in North America, due to copyright, they changed the name to Genesis, hence Genesis does what Nintendon't. I'm not sure if there was a Mega Drive does what Nintendon't commercial though.

    Then the non-Japanese got the short end of the straw with the Sega Saturn.

  • 1:16 I had that X-men game... lmao

  • @BobbEH07 Me Too!!! I Loved The Intro To It!!!

  • Thats the fucking coolest looking box ever! 1:08

  • "megadrive from seega"

  • anyone else notice at the very end the announcer says seega and not sega?

  • @SenorLobo34 yeah it's probably the british pronounciation of SEGA, notice that it's megadrive, not genesis, the console was called genesis only in america for some reasons, and megadrive all over the world

  • @MrHeavymetaldrummer In Briton we say 'say-geh' not 'see-geh'

  • @TehPhotocopier so I can't find an answer to the question: why does it say sEEga in that commercial,maybe in australia they call it SEEga ^-^

  • @TehPhotocopier Hmm...everyone I talk to says "Say-Guh" Or "Seh-Guh"

  • @Zawicki1 Sorry, wrong use of phonetics I guess, 'Say-Guh' sounds about right

  • @TehPhotocopier Yea, "geh" and "guh" both sound very similar so no one really cares XD I need to buy a Sega Genesis/Megadrive.

  • "You can even add a Sega CD, and a 32X!". If only people knew....lol

  • Apparently, Sega was lying about the Genesis's capabilities, such as the mythical "blast processing" and its thousands of colors. Was that legal back then? I still really like the Genesis (I just got Michael Jackson's Moonwalker in the mail.) but now that I think of it, it does seem like an immoral move. But these were times when the console companies could and did just that. I wish they still did that, as in "If you don't buy a Wii, you're Wiitarded."

  • I shinobi 3. I wish i could play it again. I don't know what happened to all my games. I miss it. all the sonic games. I really miss being that age. 4, 5 years old.

  • imagine if some1 had a psp or a psp go in that era of time it would be awsome

  • ah sega, wish u were here

  • Sega is the best :)

  • Is that a young David Mitchell at 2.25??

  • SEGA!

  • I miss the days when console companies would insult eachother in their commercials and brag about their superior systems.

    Though It's a shame they haven't come up with a silly parody along the lines of, 'Playstation is what Wiiisn't'...

  • @tristessa56079 - Haha, "Playstation is what Wiisn't" is brilliant!

  • lol at 3:00 The genesis could only display 64 colors onscreen out 512

  • the last 2 commercials were the dumbest, genesis was good all by its self. 32x should have been seperate and sega cd just sucks.

  • @numetal2011

    Sonic CD was the only game worth having on the Sega CD.

    But for its time If you had the Sega CD you where the talk of your friends..EVERYBODY wanted to come over..LOL

  • I do like Megadrive, but on the last advert it said megadrive has 1000's of colours?

  • "Life like 16 bit Graffics" Lol

  • I said chocolate chip.

  • sega was always bragging about their "blast processing" but i never figured out what blast processing ever was : I

  • These kids are not in their 30's now I am only 25 thank you very much and I had an Atari and Nintendo and all that stuff when I was younger

  • @caleb99able That ad is from 1993. The kids would have been about 11 at the time so born circa 1981-1982. They'd be 27 to 29 now.
