Commercial of the Week- Pontiac Spy Hunter
Lots of cool commercial have been debuting this week, but I got to show love for this nostalgic Pontiac ad.
Spy hunter was a very popular arcade and Nintendo game in the 80’s. If you are a guy between the ages of 25-40, chances are you probably are at least semi familiar with it.
Looking to hit that same age market, Pontiac has crafted the below commercial. It’s a great concept capitlizing on 80’s nostalgia that is executed really well. My first inclination was to play Spy Hunter and not buy a Pontiac, but in this day and age any commercial that makes a positive impression and is memorable is affective compared to the rest of the advertising riff raff out there.
