Even though he's inextricably Moon Man these days, there's just something kinda appealing about the presentation of the old Mac Tonight ads.

New to me!This one is pretty great.
I never thought about applying the Beavis and Butthead squiggle font to katakana.Americans are totally known to carry around Japanese mints.
This takes me back to those tape-trading days!Americans are totally known to carry around Japanese mints.
Funny when you consider it didn't take long for the US to get "Final Bout" back in '97 (the only other PS1 title sold in the west). That ad is pretty demeaning to whoever was left playing PS1 titles like that.A little background for non weebs, this game was notoriously poor, and had been out for a long time in Japan, it got an American release near the end of the Ps1's life span. This commercial is amazing it is basically saying, "yeah fanboy, you'll buy anything DBZ even toilet paper, so buy this bad ps1 game!" This is one they could have kept in Japan.
Also keep in mind this was 2003, there were two DBZ games out on ps2 already.

Certainly makes the US effort come off last minute and half-assed for an already 8 year old game.The Japanese commercial was better:
