If we’re talking about weird video game ads, I want to give a shoutout to PS3’s baby ad
An old Xbox advertisement

This is very… upsetting.

Meanwhile, the Dreamcast with its controller cord actually coming off the bottom should maybe take a paternity test.
Also, do look out for Tao Feng, but not for the reason the ad says.

I find these ads equally fascinating and cringe. Edgy male teenager humor to the max, though that was the prime demographic they were marketing to.

Bonus weird ad with the PS1 being used to open beer bottles:

I think you’re confusing the PS1 in the ad with the PSOne which came out later and had rounded edges.
