I found the commercial here. Aired in January 1991: I sent it to gameads.gamepressure.com to help preserve it, and it's now uploaded there. |

Ha! That was pretty terrible. I dig the '90's cool' guy.

Wow. Sometimes you just forget how retro this fandom really is. Then you see something like this and you remember.

Holy crap, that's creepy, because I was JUST wondering about this earlier today after coming across the commercial for ZR. Despite it's delightfully terrible "totally rad" 90'sness, I love it.

Dang, it was horrible, but did it EVER give me the best 90's flashback! It (rather predictably) mostly involved the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles... I mean, who WASN'T obsessed with them back then?  God, I really miss the nineties sometimes... |

By chance, I happened across a YouTube user that has uploaded the commercial by itself. It's dated December 2009, though (shortly after the one Parrothead found, which was uploaded in October 2009) so I'm wondering whether they just ripped it from the larger 1991 commercials montage.

I took the StarTropics commercial from the 1991 commercials video and sent it to gameads.gamepressure.com, a popular website that hosts video game-related commercials, while allows viewers to vote, direct-link and even download. The download feature is what the uploader of the video you posted used to upload it on YouTube.
