That first ad with the kid in his room with the half dozen arcade machines is what I remember the best from this era. Nowadays that seems almost likely a scenario to see with someone wanting to relive his childhood and build up a basement arcade of these hits.
“You can use the expansion deck to play your old SEGA Master System titles. Now that’s a whole new generation of games!” That is literally the complete opposite of a whole new generation of games.
"And twice the challenge!" I can't recall playing a videogame where I wished that it were harder (except the Kirby games). Why were marketing people, advertisements and commercials always talking about "challenge!" during this era. Was it to suggest to parents we would just keep playing the same game over and over again because it's so damn challenging 🤔

nice video which features some preliminary titles from the Tech Demo versions (i.e. E-SWAT and Ghostbusters)
