AtariGuy Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 'Paint the town pink with Pink' promo had a shot of a 2600 joystick with a dog. Maybe her dog enjoys a good game of chase the chuckwagon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Room 34 Posted May 31, 2002 Share Posted May 31, 2002 I wonder if Infogrames is behind all of these "appearances" as an effort to re-establish the Atari name in conjunction with their new line of Atari-branded games. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Krytol Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Does anyone remember this commercial less than a year ago.. I think it was for Good Guys or Target or something and it showed this guy supposedly playing N64 or PS2 or whatever, but the sounds were distinctly from 2600 Pac-Man? Only a die-hard Atari fan would have noticed this. I have noticed other video game sound effects in other current TV shows using 2600 sounds. Why is that?

Elektro Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 There was that Computer City commercial a little while ago with the man and his wife. He steps in the store and then madly runs into it...as he did, there were sound effects from 2600 Pacman playing in the background. Took me a moment to place them, but it put a smile on my face when I did. Nice to see that advertisers today know where to find good video game sounds.

Krytol Posted June 1, 2002 Share Posted June 1, 2002 Elektro: That's the one. I guess VCS sounds sound 'videogamey.' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
