Actually, advertising doesn't just mean tv, but I understand what you are saying.


Also, vmk advertised on neopets because there was a mini-game about trivia on the map like you had to memorize it. I played that game and thought it was cool and I joined vmk.


And.. did they cancel that disney magazine? If so, when?

Yea, according to the wiki the first issue was made in October 1990 and the last issue was published November 2007.

Yeah, they sell them at the parks, too, meaning the Club Penguin stuffed animals and "Igloo Playsets". I went to Disneyland recently and found some at the World of Disney store in Downtown Disney. The whole situation's pretty sad.

Advertising comes in all forms from billboards, radio spots, product placement, web-sites and magazine ads to commercials as you mentioned. Advertising is definitely not strictly television media, it appears in numerous abundant forms.

Besides Disneyland's advertisements and the magazine ads as mentioned, I do recall seeing an advertisement online which was featured on another virtual game site. I was rather surprised to find it featured on Habbo Hotel but I grabbed a screen shot way back when to prove it to a friend of mine. If anyone is interested in seeing it, I can try and find it on my other computer.

I actually have a screenshot of the Habbo homepage advertising VMK. You mean when the monorail came on right? That was a pretty neat advertisement.

Yeah but wasn't Habbo made my Sulake, the company that partnered up with Disney for VMK?

Cursed Storm, Buried in Treasure, and Pirate Suit magic isn't enough proof?

That Kellogg ad was for their little VMK promotion. Didn't VMK added a special room with the pirate ship in it?
