Did this Commodore advert suck or was it creative?

Don't forget to take time frame into context with this TV ad. What did most TV ads look like for computers at the time.

For the target audience of the A500, gamers at the time this would have looked pretty good.

I'm not sure that the overall premise was that good - it would have been better if the roboguy turned out to be part of the game and was taken out from behind by the player.

Like the kid was controlling the defenders from his A500 but hey, it's not really the quality but quantity of advertising that killed Amiga.
