    Amiga Adverts

    Just been on you Tube and found some old Amiga Tv adverts (mostly American). This is Nostalgia as it's when the Amiga was cutting edge and had money backing it up. goto http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=uXkYFqHyV98 and http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=iUKKLzD4Pto or just search for amiga.

    Those old Amiga adverts are great to watch after so many years. I've got them all in my collection and it always brings back some great memories when I watch them.

    They were always so cheesy too.

    I'm not sure where they will go, but I am planning on adding a Commodore adverts section on the main site soon.

    If you haven't played a classic game in years, it's never too late to start!

    Have you seen the "I'm a MAC, I'm a PC, I'm an AMIGA" spoof ad? It shows that the Amiga lives on through a GSOH.

    try http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=3PVUB4eElTo for the first one then try http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=pPqllS6ng2g or try the creators youtube site for some Amiga soft porn (No Internal parts being shown) at http://uk.youtube.com/user/amigang

    Just found a C64 advert http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=LTivRKisSDg be amazed at the enourmous memory.

    The C64 adverts were even better then the Amiga ones. Especially when they starred William Shatner!

    This one is actually a Vic 20 advert. I will try and find a link to the C64 ones.

    As someone mentioned in the comments, its funny that the advert starts off slagging off the opposition as being for games, then finishes up stating how great the Vic-20 is for games.

    But the best Commodore advert has to be this one. http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=D_f3uIzEIxo Makes me laugh every time!

    No William Shatner's Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds is comic gold along with Leonard Nimoys ballad of Bilbo Baggins.
