Ok, first off I'm sorry if there's all ready a topic like this, but the search function didn't help me much :o

What I'm looking for is a site or program that I can use to download some old (or newer) videogame commercials. Besides the fact that it'd be cool to see some of the commercials for my favorite games, there were some real kickass ones that I could never find.

The thing that brought this up in my mind was that I was thinking about Zelda: Oracle of Ages/Seasons, and I remembered their commercials. Those were very cool! Back when they first aired, I went on a wild goosechase internet hunt looing for them. Being only semi-experienced with the internet, I did everything I could. I searched Kazaa and other p2p file sharing programs. I searched nintendo's website, and used search engines like google to the best of my abilities. No luck. So, after these years, I figured I'd ask you guys:

Is there any place I can get old TV commericals, for games like Zelda and Kingdom Hearts? Or maybe for old NES/SNES games? Or some ps2/gamecube ones? Anything?

Thank you very much.

Man, I still can't seem to find the Oracle games though. What’s with that? Those were the coolest!

for NES commercials, go to the following page:

This by far has the most NES commercials out there.
