    Default Advertisment Mottos used by Consoles

    I was wondering if anyone can remember the motto used for their childhood console for yesteryear. I can think of some, such as Nintendo's Now you are playing with power!, but I am having a hard time thinking of Compainies such as Sony for the Playstation one or the Sega Saturn. What catchy phrases did they use to push those sytems?

    I remember PlayStation was "Live in your world, play in ours" with some of the letters swapped for the triangle, circle, square, and X buttons.

    And while I can't recall one for Sega Saturn, these commercials are great:

    Atari had one that was "Don't watch television tonight - play it!"

    I'm sure more will come to me...

    Coleco tabletops: The arcade games you can take home with you.

    Seems a clear version of the commercial has finally made its way online.
