The first object in [[Metroid Wiki:Remember Me?|our series]] is a very classic, old-school commercial airing in North America<noinclude> uploaded to YouTube (uploaded by <span class="plainlinks">[http://www.youtube.com/user/classicvgcommercials classicvgcommercials]</span>)</noinclude>. This half-minute commercial aired around ''[[Super Metroid|Super Metroid's]]'' release mid-1994, approximately two decades ago! This game must have been serious business to scare our rottweiler, "Killer", into <includeonly>a measly chihuahua</includeonly><noinclude>the {{wp|Taco Bell chihuaha}}</noinclude>! <noinclude> That's right, this commercial promises "[[Nintendo|Nintendo's]] biggest game ever!" and boy did we get it! While ''Super Metroid'' was not genuinely as appreciated during its time as it should have been, many retrospective gamers can see the long-lasting effect of the game. Looking back, this game did have many heart-pounding and frightening "oh crap!" moments, generally attributed to the intense boss battles paired with thrilling music. Whether or not this game can cause such fear enough to change a dog's breed, however, is debatable.

In all honesty, I myself was only an infant near the release of ''Super Metroid'' and I do not remember this commercial airing. However, there are certain aspects of this commercial that I can easily relate to my own childhood television experiences. Aside from its physical low quality by today standards, the originality and style of this short video is undeniably 90's.
