A few classic Promo videos from 1992
« on: September 28, 2015, 08:42:10 AM »
I recently converted some old VHS videos to digital format and will be doing more of that in the near future.  Right now, I have uploaded 2 of the early 90's Sega promo videos to Youtube.  I have 2 TG-16 videos that I'll be uploading there later on.  I'll post them in this thread once I do.

Anyway, without further delay, here are the 2 videos:

Sega Buzz - Spring 1992 Sega Genesis / GameGear Merchandise Tape

And.

Welcome to the Next Level - SegaCD promo from October 14, 1992

Hopefully, you guys enjoy the magic and cheeseyness that was advertising in the early 90's as much as I did.  hehe.

Cool. Good to see all this preserved on the net.

I remember pouring over Sony's completely indecipherable gibberish ads for the PS1 while they were ramping up the hype before that came out. The "U R Not E" stuff - and of course the Sega vs. Nintendo ads before that.

I'll check these out when i get home.

I always enjoy old marketing videos.

I still have a bunch of the VHS tapes the companies used to mail out or bundle. I need to dump some of them onto youtube.

AVGN is pretty good.  He's somewhat Nintendo biased, but he does make good points on both consoles.

I didn't know I could embed youtube right in the post.  What is the code for that?  I can update my first post.

For YouTube you just paste in the link. Needs the HTTPS link (which should be standard now), not the HTTP.

Don't think it works for other video sites though.
