ZippyRedPlumber Posted January 17, 2017 Share Posted January 17, 2017 From 1983-84 Atari made a series of commercials called "Atari Club" or "Atari Clubhouse" in which a group of kids would play whatever game that was being advertised these aired mainly during Children's Programming. There were only two ads that have ever surfaced in 2015 via this series of commercial breaks uploaded by a user called 80sCommercialVault: , "Pigs in Space" & "Sorcerer's Apprentice." Until recently I discovered what I believe is the first of these ads while watching another series of Commercial Breaks on Youtube. Atari Club - 'Centipede' (March 26th, 1983).wmv You can watch the original video I got this from here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nunFDULAl58 Special Thanks goes to Darian Sewell for original source. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mclaneinc Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 @Mclaneinc What do you mean by the other stuff? Are you talking about the other two ads I've mentioned? No, was just saving people who just wanted to see the advert and not the rest of the video Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted January 18, 2017 Share Posted January 18, 2017 You forgot the Star Wars' Kenner commercial at the 12 minute mark. God it must have been short, I skipped through the whole thing little bit at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRedPlumber Posted January 19, 2017 Author Share Posted January 19, 2017 @Mclaneinc You don't have to watch the entire video, if you just wanted to see the ad I've attached the Centipede ad stand alone in a downloadable WMV file in the OP.
