Title: Doof-ups in promo vids?
Post by: Arkhan on April 28, 2009, 09:37:17 PM
I was watching promo vids for TG 16 ....

I noticed in the POWER UP one, the goofy little kid is playing the Turbo Express with a Sys 2 card in it...
soooo.....

I think it's hilarious that the guy in one of the promo videos is the voice of our hero, Lykos, in Shape Shifter!!

TurboGrafx commercials turned me off to the system when i was a kid hehe. The only thing that kept me wanting to get one was Fighting Street.

Yeah, we've talked about that video in particular in the past. When the kid isn't struggling to beat TurboGrafx-CD System Card on his Express, he's rocking out to a powerless Turbo-CD discman. :)

Game on, li'l dude!  You can make it to the format screen if you keep trying!

I think that the screen cap for the video on superpcenginegrafx.com really says it all, I mean....

I imagine the controller is plugged into a turbo tap which isn't plugged in to the TG, and there is no game but the systems on anyways, and the kid is losing at said game.

I could've made a crack about the kid's blonde hair but the shirt stands out more.

Y'know, I kinda miss the early 90's a bit...where DiC cartoons reigned supreme and the Nintendo vs. Sega war was going full circle.

"Sega does what Nintendon't".

If that's not cutthroat advertising, I don't know what is. :twisted:
