Atari2008 Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I was watching Heroes and fast forwarding the commercials when I noticed an Atari 2600 game. I checked it out and it's a commercial for the Lexus IS 250 which starts off with a kid getting an Atari 2600 for Christmas. Enjoy!

homerwannabee Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 I've noticed that this commercial is only on two places and both are dealerships and both have Ratings and comments disabled. I think someone here needs to copy this commercial and create a third one where ratings and comments are not deleted or disabled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tcv Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 Yes, but the other title makes it seem like it's a Seattle event when it's their annual Christmas set. I've not seen the Atari one live yet. I've seen the Big Wheel one a couple of times and a doll one today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fräulein Posted December 8, 2008 Share Posted December 8, 2008 I've seen the big wheel one too. I had that an atari 2600 as a kid. Now I just have my 2600. Do they make adult size big wheels?? We had a Big Wheel and a Green Machine. I would sooooooo get a those if they made them for an adult. Green Machine > Big Wheel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradhig Posted January 8, 2009 Share Posted January 8, 2009 every link to videos is dead. Do they show the atari 2600 console or just the TV with centipede on it? Was it a heavy sixer? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
videogamesbook Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 In the initial scene he's just opened the box is a 6-switch. I don't remember if it's a heavy sixer or not. Then they cut to a scene at night where he's playing Centipede and the 6-switch is now a 4-switch wood grain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+Random Terrain Posted January 11, 2009 Share Posted January 11, 2009 This video is no longer available due to a copyright claim by Toyota Motor Sales, USA, Inc. Why in the heck would they not want their commercial on YouTube? It's F-ing free advertising. They don't have to pay to have it seen. Instead of fast-forwarding past it, people actually want to see it. I hope all of these big companies die from constantly shooting themselves in the foot. Listen, you lumbering semi-retarded behemoths, places like YouTube will cause more people to become interested in your products. Don't have the videos removed and if you're a music company that uploads your own videos, let people embed them. You'll end up getting more traffic and more clicks on your ads. Wake up before you dry up and disappear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
