I like how they literally end it with their own spokesman and product getting trampled. It’s like that meme “The evil is defeated” and then everyone went home and never thought about the gamecom again 😂
I love how some of the questions at the end like the cost or game compatibility would be genuinely good questions at the time, yet the announcer still insults them anyway.
Just noticed the "game footage" part on the top right part of the screen : looks like a cool RPG cinematic that seems cancelled (or a SNES game that being converted into greyscale just for the commercial).
A commercial that calls the customers slackers, idiots, morons, and refuses to answer basic questions about cost, gameplay, and compatibility. Gee, I wonder why this thing failed.
The Game Com had a worse screen than the original Gameboy. It was higher resolution but way too dim and blurry to be usable. The only only PDA features were a calculator and a calendar you couldn't use to schedule. The internet connectivity that was way too difficult to use. Tiger Electronics really went all in on doing the cheapest possible version of a good idea.
and if I'm remembering correctly, the only Internet feature it had was email, also keeping in mind that the Internet connectivity on the device was not wireless. For all that, use a computer.
"BEGS TO BE TOUCHED" **says that to the boy in the green shirt and raises eyebrows** Oooookay, that somehow managed to get placed in a commercial aimed at minors..
0:40 Sonic Jam for gamecom would've looked much closer to the Saturn version as it had a title card, large hud and more details on levels and title screens for the games. Would've been better than what we got.
It might have worked if the commercial started out with the kids playing some other handheld console and the guy starts insulting their intelligence for playing it, and introduces them to a "better" one, the Game Com. Of course even if the commercial was improved, it still would have been false advertising because the Game Com wasn't better than anything, not even the original Game Boy.
Audience Member: Does it Play Games?🤔 Mid Get: IDIOT!!!! Next question! Audience Member: How Much Does It Cost??? Mid Get: MORRRRRONNNNN!!!!!!! *My FAVORITE Commercial EVER!*
Which is also a fine example of how Tiger Electronics' Research and Development staff was so preoccupied with whether or not they could that they didn't bother to think if they should.
this is the opposite of selling, like its an ad telling you not to buy it
Well at least they're being honest about it.
Lol
It's 90s, needs to be edgy and rad
I mean it worked didn’t?
“You know what kids love? Being called stupid”
“...and it plays more games than you IDIOTS have brain cells!”
😲😲😲
MalMal 21 “100,000,000,000. That’s the number of brain cells in an average human.”
Especially the customer asking "how much does it cost?"
@@HLHReviews 20! Over the GameCom's 3-year lifespan, they only released 20 games!
Tiger: How do we market our system?
Marketing Team: How about we insult our target audience?
Tiger: Brilliant!
and Disney saw it and sayed, we are even better
Insult your target audience. Brilliant.
Did you get that from Rerez?
You know what kids like? Being called stupid!
Came here from that video

Me too. That's like my favorite part of this commercial.
Although the guy asking if the system plays after that micro speaker said it does was merit for the speaker's response.
Joke’s on you, I don’t have any brain cells.
I'm ya with brain no cells!
Show of hands who’s here after Rerez’s video
🤚
Me
Yo

“And it plays more games than you idiots have brain cells!”
I feel like playing these games is killing my brain cells...
Just like that guy staring at the screen after that quote XD
@@CrimsonA1the whole commercial for that matter.
fun fact: The average adult human brain has about 100 billion cells.
And this console had only 20 games made.
...over a 3 YEAR lifespan.
Rerez?
It's just bad
The Game Com, even EA wouldn't be evil enough to make you pay for this.
I feel like they WANTED the Game.Com to fail.
It's hard to sell anything when you're insulting your consumer.
0:41 I wish this is a meme
Hard to believe this marketing failed.

More like, "It plays less games than the dwarf onstage."
Just noticed the "game footage" part on the top right part of the screen : looks like a cool RPG cinematic that seems cancelled (or a SNES game that being converted into greyscale just for the commercial).
I was also wondering about that.
A commercial that calls the customers slackers, idiots, morons, and refuses to answer basic questions about cost, gameplay, and compatibility. Gee, I wonder why this thing failed.
On top of it being legitimately terrible.
The Game Com had a worse screen than the original Gameboy. It was higher resolution but way too dim and blurry to be usable. The only only PDA features were a calculator and a calendar you couldn't use to schedule. The internet connectivity that was way too difficult to use. Tiger Electronics really went all in on doing the cheapest possible version of a good idea.
Welp, that’s Tiger Electronics for ya.
Game Com had a touch screen, which was lightyears ahead of the original Gameboy, but Gamegear was where it was at.
and if I'm remembering correctly, the only Internet feature it had was email, also keeping in mind that the Internet connectivity on the device was not wireless. For all that, use a computer.

The 90's were much simpler times
Good thing the Nintendo DS is there to fix Game.com's mistakes.
Never compare something wonderful like that to something horrible like this.
0:41 this line was basically the 90s equivalent of "make an anime fan cry on prom night"
“plays more games than you idiots have braincells!"
These games make me lose braincells!!
Like there's literally no reason at all to ever own a gamecom. You'd be better off saving for a Gameboy.
I'm surprised for all the lessons that weren't learned from the way the Atari Jaguar was marketed.
NellyTube’s marketing lesson of the day:
Don’t insult future costumers
Well, the good news is the audience got their revenge on that dunce for false advertising
0:40 Sonic Jam for gamecom would've looked much closer to the Saturn version as it had a title card, large hud and more details on levels and title screens for the games. Would've been better than what we got.
"It plays more games than you idiots have braincells" is a pretty good insult because game.com only has 20 games
"It plays more games that you idiots have braincells"
20 games = we have 19 braincells?
if true, we must be 99,999,981 brain cells short of what we've been promised by nature.
/s, if that wasnt sarcastic enough.
Whats the name of that little guy? I cant find him on the web
Maybe he was killed at the end of the crowd?
It was the 90s and this commercial was supposed to scream “ATTITUDE!”
Just an observation.
It might have worked if the commercial started out with the kids playing some other handheld console and the guy starts insulting their intelligence for playing it, and introduces them to a "better" one, the Game Com.
Of course even if the commercial was improved, it still would have been false advertising because the Game Com wasn't better than anything, not even the original Game Boy.
Dumb name, mediocre games and a commercial that insults the customer. How was this not a hit?
@Olivia 757 But I like Sonic Jam for the saturn :(
i remember this commercial
You still remember it now?
@@lycus_mozgore That insulting spikey-haired midget in the orange suit is UNFORGETTABLE.
0:52 Me when someone says Anarchism is only right-wing
How can a video game system be both ahead of it's time and behind it at the same time?
They duped so many kind kids into buying this
i liked mine
@@awbobsagetable you must have bought a different console
@@awbobsagetablethe only reason you would ever like a gamecom is if you were amish
"THAT'S great marketing!"
0:36 What is that game? I don't remember any JRPG games being released on this.
0:36
So... are we cancelling Tiger Electronics, Ltd. or what?
No need. Their marketing did that for em. Along with cancelling their sales
@@bt3743😂
Everything the Game.com could do, the DS could do better.
And it did.
Audience Member: Does it Play Games?🤔
Mid Get: IDIOT!!!! Next question!
Audience Member: How Much Does It Cost???
Mid Get: MORRRRRONNNNN!!!!!!!
*My FAVORITE Commercial EVER!*
I cannot believe that any of this exists, best timeline
Those who played the game com cant grow back their brain cells
0:36 AYOOOOOOOOOO
Rerez anybody??
Lol rerez is funny af
Imagine seeing this and then going to buy an overglorified calculator that sounds like it's named after the most basic ass game website ever
This is a great ad for the Game Boy Color.
Before MC Grindah was famous he was doing ads for Game Com

The greatest commercial I have ever seen, made my day lmfao
0:41 the people who decided this line was good themselves have 19 braincells, maybe less
People are too hard on this commercial. I mean what if you are a slacker with nothing better to do than play games and surf the net all day?
Lol doesn't matter. You know what kids really love being called stupid 😂
Advertising 101: insult your audience
0:36
Those two would like to "touch" each other.
Kids would show other kids their gamecom and kids would be like "why" , or how you guys it now. Kid : "check out my gamecom" other kid : "Duh Fuhck?"
Edit *or how you guys say it now
It got PDA features like a phone book , a calendar, a calculator, and a built in Solitaire game.

“It plays more games than you Idiots have Brain Cells”
We have 100,000,000 Brain cells,
And the Game.Com has 20 games.
What was it with 90's console commercials and insulting the intelligence of their potential customers? This, Sega CD, Atari Jaguar, Game Gear.
It was when gamers were treated like weirdos.
And did you notice all those consoles were failures?
Guy fieri had a breakdown
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Rerez brought me here. So did James Rolfe aka AVGN
Plays more games than you idiots have brain cells
0:38 wtf
0:45 Why does this guy look like Jin from tekken to me.
100,000 Braincells in a normal human
20 Games on the gamecom
0:41 Top 10 roast of the time
Yooo its AngryJoe as a child!
I need it back in my life I remember it
I miss the 90's.
Seriously!
And on a side note, even the commercials were sooo much better in the late 1990s and early 2000s. They had so much personality
He's an angry elf.
LET'S GET HER!
EA but without the subtlety
My reaction to this commercial: 0:43
He looks like a young Ashton Kutcher
"more games than you idiots have braincells!"
It has 20 games. calm down, dude.
The people who made game.com should be ashamed
This was an amazing console. (Joke intended)
Amazingly shitty
The marketing department must've abused as children to come up with the idea to insult their target audience.
The Tiger Game Com was complete flop and got it's ass kicked by the Nintendo Game Boy.
0:44 100, 000, 000, 000

@MattTheSaiyan I'm guessing you weren't alive in the 90s, because back then this shit was for real.
Angry Joe?
wow, only $moron for a game console? hot buttered popcorn, that's a deal!
$MOOOROOON? What a great price for a piece of junk like this!
more companies need to tell their audience what a bunch of idiots their customers are actually cuz its true
I dont look saturn on you.
He looks like Guy Fieri after a drug overdose
No he looks like a cross between violent j and Angelo from the movie turbo
I had one....
Yeah and I bet after 3 months your game com became a game door stop
“GAME COM”
Uhh can it go on hentai sites
90s.
He look like Angry Joe but he very short
Don't insult angry Joe like that 😂
The game.com has 20 games
Thats compared to the amount of brain cells in an average human you know 100,000,000,000
