Kid Icarus/Mirror of Palthena Commercial (Japan, 1986)

Aug 3, 2020 ·

It’s a quick video but there’s so much to love about this 1986 commercial for A Mythology of Light: The Mirror of Palthena on the Famicom System (or Kid Icarus on the Nintendo Entertainment System in the US)!

First cool thing: it features an adult playing and not a kid! In 1986!

Second cool thing: the practical effects of Medusa destroying the temple!

Third cool thing: the Famicom endpage logo animation!

Here’s the ad:
