progI posted this in a friend's LJ to tease him but I have to share it here, too.
The only other time I saw this was ~25 years ago at the downtown Hingham premiere of "WarGames", the day before I started fifth grade at a new school in a new town. It's the only video-based ad for an arcade game I recall seeing, but there used to be quite a few in the game magazines I read at the time. They all came down to "Ask your local arcade operator to buy this game." What an odd concept!
Dig-Dug was absolutely my favorite video game at the time, and I will always have a fondness for it. Also, I could probably kick your butt at it right now, still. Just sayin.
So naturally it's on YouTube five times. How do people get a hold of this stuff?
