"Pepsimaaaaan!"

Recommended Posts

Whilst digging through the posts over on The Dreamcast Junkyard, I found a new hero.

He's also appeared in his own game* no less, but it was a Japanese release only it seems (no doubt because the Pepsiman ad campaign was specifically intended for the Japanese market alone).

:buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme: :buyme:

Apologies if this is (extremely) old hat, but I thought it was great nonetheless.

* Game footage taken from Pepsiman for PlayStation running via bleemcast!, hence; it's a bit shonky in places.

I remember reading in a magazine (I forget the title. I was young and stupid, and thus picked it up because it promised Smash Bros Melee strategy) about that game. They had a few pages at the back about Japanese gaming, and Pepsiman was featured prominently. Last place I expected to see it again was here, but it's always good to be reminded of the crazy.

Hah, I love how there's only one track (the jingle) and it doesn't even repeat in levels.
