For those who have wondered what it'd be like to be in the environment of a pinball machine, the Mountain Dew Skate Pinball commercial will answer that question.
As expected, the Mountain Dew Skate Pinball ad suggests that if you were in the classic arcade game, you'd have loads of fun. The audience is taken through the view of a skateboarder doing ollies and kick-flips as he navigates through the lights of the machine. Then, things really elevate when the multi-ball bonus is achieved resulting in a BMX rider and another skate cruiser popping out to show off their skills.
If businesses are looking to build a new skate park but can't figure out the theme, then this ad should serve as the perfect inspiration. I don't know why no one has thought of it in the first place.
