Hi-Res Atari Tv Commercial

The 7UP commercial's weird, mixing Pac-Man, 7UP, and a jingle parody of Kim Carnes' "Bette Davis Eyes" together

 

It's there, aside from the obvious Pac Man reference, because it was done by the same firm that did Atari's "The Fly" spot and using the same computer technology to generate the graphics.

The Fly is one of my favorite Atari commercials. Is it true that it was only shown in movie theaters and not on TV?

 

Yes. It was a two minute spot shown before the previews in theatres. There was a 0:30 edited version that appeared on TV later on, though, edited and overdubbed specifically to highlight and promote Star Raiders.
