Every Segata Sanshiro commercial is an instant classic. He needs to be in the next Smash Bros.

Toss up between

Final Fantasy IV (Japan):

or Final Fantasy IX Coke Commercial (Japan):


I should probably go through my four gigs of commercials and see which ones are not on youtube - I have been collecting them online for about ten years and stopped at the PSX/N64 generation.

I always had the opposite reaction with those Crash Bandicoot commercials. They always struck me as stupid and posturing. Then again, none of the old Sega commercials in a similar vein of "why aren't you cool enough to play our shit?!" did anything for me either.
