Ghosts Of Christmas Mornings' Past

A Brief History of Game Consoles, As Seen in Old TV Ads

Some of these bring back old memories, some of them make me scratch my head in puzzlement, as they include commercials from around the world that I've never seen before, and some of them make me think "That was 10 years ago already?"
I've never been much of a gamer, but my sister Kim and I got an Intellivision system from our brother Brad one Christmas many years ago, and I did have access to NES and SNES systems over the years.
Plus I watched alot of Saturday morning cartoons, which is when many of these ads aired, so I do have some history with them at least.
