Plot
This section is in need of a rewrite

This episode doesn't follow the usual Scott The Woz format; it is, in fact, a product, nicknamed Scott Talks About Game Commercials: The Product, a 17-minute long video made by Scott following the economy failing considering the lack of products sold, and viewers have to pay during the end of the video.

Scott starts 'chipping away' his bucket list and he currently has to have an irrational desire, as said in the list. This connects to a skit that shows the last couple of seconds of a PlayStation Portable commercial, comparing it to a 'nut that you can play with outside', followed by Scott being persuaded and wanting to buy the console. He then proceeds to how marketing is crucial to a video game's success, and how commercials are the most memorable method when it comes to knowing about one game's existence. Scott talks about the many examples of what types a video game commercial can take: this includes an artsy commercial, commercials that are incredibly memorable for its subject matter, and the 'other ones', which is accompanied by a Wii U commercial.

Starting with the 1970's, otherwise known as the 'decade that sort of kinda just happened', the video game commercial format came into fruition. Scott talks about a commercial for the Magnavox Odyssey, the first home video game console. At the time of its release, nobody knew what the term 'home video game console' meant, alas the commercial had to be a success in showing the value of Odyssey and video games as a whole. The commercial is shown, with a comprehensive description of the console accompanied with flute music. Scott describes the commercial as 'dry, raw and bare', criticising it for just feeling like a product description, and how the budget for the background music is the only memorable thing featured on it.
