It was Sega, and it got them nowhere. This kind of advertising stopped working after the Genesis days.


Got them no where? The Gensis beat the SNES for three straight years (1991-1994). lol. If it weren't for DKC and Sega's shift towards to Saturn, the SNES might not have even won that generation.

That ad wasn't for the Genesis, it was for the Saturn, which bombed. By the end of the SNES generation, this kind of advertising had lost its bite. Sega tried it extensively against PS1 and N64 without success.
