Old advertising slogans?

Mick_AKA · 25 April 2005, 18:07

Just wondered if you remembered and really good old advertising slogans for games or machines, my favorites are:

"Welcome to the real world... Sega Saturn" - Sega Saturn launch slogan

"Stinking Illiterate Peasant, He Served Me Well" - I think this was Settlers 2

Amiga1992 · 25 April 2005, 18:30

"To Be This Good Will Take Sega Ages" - Commodore CD32

hahaha, real lame.

"Welcome to the next level" - Sega Mega Drive

"Now you're playing with power" - Nintendo Entertainment System

"I got the power!" - Atari console (not 100% sure on that one)

"Into the Wonderful" - Gods

I never could understand, "Playstation 2 - The Third Place." What the hell did that mean?

Don't forget the Atari 2600 slogan. "Have you played your Atari today"

IFW · 26 April 2005, 04:52

MS: Where do you want to go today?
Apple: Where do you want to go tomorrow?
Anti Palladium: Where don't you want to go tomorrow?
Quantum Computing: Where Do We Want to Go Tomorrow?

Wasn't it like Amiga (or motorola) that said "where do you want to be tommorow"?

I remember a BMW commercial, featuring a sport BMW without rooftop, and the words:
"Our hardware runs better without windows"

Or a Fifties vacuumcleaner commercial:
"Nothing sucks like a Electrolux"

Commodore and Amiga slogan in Australia:
"Are you keeping up with commodore? because commodore is keeping up with you"
