I'm think most of use remember the rapping Zelda ad for LA but it pales in comparison to this (http://gameads.gamepressure.com/tv_game_commercial.asp?ID=2689) in weirdness.

Oh man, I saw this in September when someone posted it on a Negima message board, and it was definitely bizarre.

Now if only the ad appeared on the VG3 multi-editor AMV project. :(

No the weirdest Zelda commerical is still that American one with the guy shouting out different enemy names while acting them out in a dark room. I mean this is a one man show of complete lunacy.

Seen that one a very long time ago. As for random or weird game commercials:

There is this one weird video game commercial I HATE! It's that Kirby one with the giant finger! The finger is so ugly and the song playing is so darn sappy!

I can't remember if it was Mario Pinball or Donkey Kong vs. Mario, but I recall the Japanese ad was really...suggestive. Lots of hot girls dancing around and such, it was weird, especially from Nintendo.

Eee, wasn't there a commecial for MGS that had Gackt (Japanese pop star/ media whore)... doing... something? I don't know. The commercial for the Revolution sacred me. The one where you just see different people jerking aroud the controllers. Creepy.

That was a "teaser" video, not a commercial.
