I don't ever remember seeing any ommercials in the US for the AES, at least on TV. I remember before the SNES came out I saw the AES in a Service Merchandise catalog, selling at about $899 if I remember correctly. I've never seen any commercials on TV for their games either, but lots of print stuff in hardcore gaming mags.

I've got the Fatal Fury Special Commercials, saturn ad, and Shenmue for Saturn on my website. You probably got it there.

Don't remember where I got them. That Shenmue video is presented at the ending of Shenmue II I believe.

Oh yeah, STV is a sega saturn

The Legendary Lone Wolf: 4-5minutes? Nice...could you make it available for download?

I've got two AoF2 commercials (each about 1 minute), the popular FFS commercials and a KoF94 commercial...that's it.
Anyone else got other commercials?

If my memory serves me correctly, the only place that you could even hear the Neo's name mentioned on tv in the very early 90's was Game Pro TV.
They probably did more to promote that system than most of the stores that carried it.

All I have seen are the NGPC commercials that ran on Cartoon Network. Hopefully someone has them archived somewhere out there.
