    Default French documentary request: Old Nintendo commercials

    Hi everyone,

    I'm production manager in a French documentary production company called La Générale de Production.
    We're now editing a documentary about the Geek Culture for the franco-german cultural channel ARTE (kind of an European PBS).
    It's a 52' documentary about the "geek" culture since the seventies until today. It's the story of a triumph: how the "geek" became very popular in cultural and economical domains.
    Our purpose is to show a very positive image of the geek culture.

    In order to do that, we would like to use two old Nintendo commercials:
    Nes:

    Game and Watch:
    http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=64vGtvetGjM

    The problem is that we couldn't find them in a good quality (VHS rip at least)

    Is anybody have them or know where I can find them?

    It would be very helpful.

    Best regards,

    François

    Your documentary is going to be fifty-two feet long?
    You are startled by a grim snarl. Before you, you see 1 Red dragon. Will your stalwart band choose to (F)ight or (R)un?

    I believe he means 52 minutes, using longitude and latitude notations or angle shorthand.

    Good luck on your search.
