They are the best; although I feel that videogame commercials aren't as outlandish (i.e. very entertaining) as they were in the 80s, 90s, and early 2000s. Anyways, talk about your most favorite, or most hated, videogame commercials here.
I find most of the commercials at this link by the way:

The best videogame ad of all time has got to be the "PlayStation 9" commercial (a commercial advertising for the PlayStation 2).
I mean, it's electronic spores tap strait into your adrenal gland!
I am always ready for 2078.

Seriously though, I always thought this commercial was pretty cool.
I also remember one of my friends at school telling me that they teleported one. (-_-)

Yeah, I do think older ones had a tendancy to be more entertaining. Still some pretty good newer ones as well though, like what would probably be my favorite one:

Besides that, there are a couple older ones I really like, such as these:

Gotta wonder what the hell they were thinking with some of those.

I can't tell the difference between commercials for call of duty and US army recruitment commercials anymore

Oh yeah, I really liked the Viva Pinata commercial, I thought it was hilarious; I never saw the extended one before now though.

And that Supersonic commercial…I can't believe that's a commercial; It looks like a skit from a comedy show, in my opinion.

The Legend of Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons commercial
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=I4vUeIP4heY

This is one of the earliest videogame commercials I can remember. It was awesome back then, and it still is today. This commercial's is probably one of the reason why I wanted the game/s, and it sure is hyping me to get them again; worst part is, I never got them, and still don't have them. Shit! My Gameboy Color needs a new game.

Hmm, I don't remember seeing that one, even though I got both Seasons and Ages when they first came out. It is a pretty neat commercial, though. But yeah, you should really get those two sometime, since they're probably on par with Link's Awakening.

One commercial I remember being pretty cool (and forgot to post before) is the Secret of Evermore commercial. Has a slightly dark atmosphere to it, just like the game.

Also, here're some more NES ones:

Man, that Secret of Evermore commercial is crazy; and they make it look so intense (which it may be, I wouldn't know). It's entertaining, that's for sure.

NES commercials, I wonder what it would've been like to see them when they first showed; something tells me I would've spent a ton of money, both on games and useless peripherals.

I mainly remember commercials for first party Nintendo games (especially Zelda and Mario 2 and 3) and really shitty third party games. And the many weird input devices the NES had, like the Power Glove.

Commercials were badass when I was a kid. They were also shorter and there were usually fewer of them, and they weren't louder than the show you were watching.

Fuck tv these days anyhow

The Nintendo commercials were always good to me…at least until the Wii came along; I mean, who wants to see people playing the games, right?! Could just be me though.

Commercial for The Legend of Dragoon (PlayStation)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5qiFsT41AHg

Gotta love those commercials that try to make a videogame look like a movie. Legend of Dragoon is probably the first RPG I played; but, I sort of like this commercial, and also kind of don't. I watched it all the time on one of those old Official PlayStation Magazine demo discs though.
