We need to talk about this commercial for Atari's Pole Position.
I discovered it via the "random videos" feature.

Its amazing how unsophisticated the advertising industry was back then, compared to now. I mean, conceptually, its genius. But the execution isn't quite on point. Twelve year old kids are making higher quality videos on youtube every day.

The fact that this is an actual commercial, advertising a product, blows my friggin mind.
