Cover Art Theatre
permalinkWell, as Advertainment Month comes to a close, and all the goods and services advertised have been purchased, wrapped, unwrapped and put on a shelf, its only natural to feel a little bit let down. Maybe you didn't get everything you wanted, or maybe you did, but now you want some other stuff.
Fortunately we here at GameWTFs have just enough time to share one last late-'80s NES game advertisement with you, and this one is about a guy who ALWAYS gets the equipment he wants. In fact, his entire GAME is named after a really stupid mega-weapon gear!
I'm of course talking about...
Metal Gear, the original commando stealth game for your NES!
But of course the only thing anyone really remembers about it now is THAT guy.
Anyway, as they say above, ULTRAGAMES (a subsidiary/nickname/puppet regime of Konami) has supplied the equipment...and what equipment it is! We'll look at the whole ad, then we'll take a peak at some of the best gear close up.
Oh yeah!
...and it may also just get the Top 40 Countdown with Casey Kasem!
...because in war (as in love), timing is everything!
I'm not sure how far ahead "one screen" is, but I certainly prefer seeing things without risking my life.
50% off damage! And for a limited time, we'll also include a mail-in coupon for an extra 10% off damage from approved retailers!
Yeah, screw you Elves and your innate 1-in-4 chance of detecting hidden doors -- I can detect hidden doors with a single punch!
Well, you can't beat Iron Glove.
I hope you've enjoyed Advertainment Month, and I'll see you in 2015 for the beginning of GameWTFs.com's third year!
