Dr. Pepper and Virtua Fighter 4.
Coca-Cola has signed a deal with Sega for a new promotional campaign that will include Dr. Pepper soda and Sega's recently released arcade game Virtua Fighter 4: Evolution. Specifically, players can collect 18 limited edition keychains bearing images of characters from the game by purchasing 350ml cans of Dr. Pepper at select vending machines. Posters advertising the campaign have already begun appearing at several Sega operated amusement facilities across Japan. According to company representatives however, the promotion is officially scheduled to begin next week.

For once I would just like them to try that kind of cool stuff in America. Sure we get impossible "Look under the Label and win one of 20 Game Systems" games. But not like that. "Oh wow! Nintendo character shaped Suckers that look like retarded versions of the Nintendo character they are supposed to be! Cool! Oh and Nintendo character gumi bears in a little GBA plastic box! Awesome!" In japan even the crapiest games get wicked cool toys and stuff. Sigh.
Barf! Barf! Barf!

You sayin' Virtua Fighter 4 is on of the "crappiest games"? Huh, punk? You wanna step outside!?Originally posted by Clash_Master

Really though, I get what your saying. American publishers spend thier advertising dollars on the stupidest crap. Americans might not dig VF4 keychains as much as the Japanese might, but finding something cool looking in your Dr Pepper might promt you to find out what that cool looking thing pertains to. Plus I want a Akira keychain damnit....

What next? Starbucks and Mario with a Cappucino backpack?

Dude! It would rock to have little plastic Mario bottles that you squeeze, and out shoots cappucino from the water gun! Refreshing Mario double shots where ever you go!

They should have select "winning cans" like in Shenmue, that I could trade in for Saturn games. That would rock. Then I could buy a can and chug-a-lug the whole thing right there at the machine, with a "woo", just like Ryo Hazuki!

Bah, I'm kinda glad that this doesn't exist here. Then I'd have to actually drink Dr. Pepper...ugh....
Oh and does anyone think that the three question mark spots are kinda odd? Are there three more characters or are there just three more keychains of existing characters?
They call me Heatmiser
and whatever I touch
starts to melt in my clutch
I'm too much!
