Activision advertisement that demonstrated how challenging their games were

[Lauren Tyler]

There was this one ad that showed some of Activision's games and their 'players' showing how tough they were, like a boxer knocked down, and a checkers player asking 'Best two out of three?' or something like that. Anyone know where I can find this?

I know it's kind of obvious, but did you try searching on Youtube for 'Activision commercial'?

It's actually a magazine print advertisement.

Are you talking about the one that says "And Now A Few Excuses From Our Experts" from May/June of 1981? You can find it here:
