Anyone have a picture of the Pizza Hut coupon from the Ninja Turtles 2 game?
You know how on the box that Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 2: The Arcade Game (NES), it says there's a coupon inside for a free or discounted Pizza Hut pizza? I've tried Googling it but can't find it. I don't need a copy of it or anything, I just want to see what it looks like.
And on a related note, is this game the very first video game ever with product placement advertising? Maybe the first time it was kinda neat but now I'm hearing there's this one game (forget the name, it's a newer one, probably on PS3 or X360) where you can totally destroy/nuke the city, but all the Pepsi vending machines will still be standing without a scratch. I'm a Pepsi fan myself, but even I think that's going way too far.

As for being the first product placement in games, there were such gems as Action Biker, Chase The Chuckwagon, Pepsi Invaders, etc. As for a product noted inside the game, there's always the Reese's Pieces you collect in ET on the 2600...
I checked the manual here at NintendoAge and it's not there.
Copies printed after the coupon expired obviously wouldn't have the coupon anymore now would they

Yes it does.
