I was about to say "not to mention a white man with a pretty white wife and two blond kids..."
But then it occurred to me that neither of the "parents" are blond. Then I noticed how the driver leers through his rear-view mirror at the boy in back.

That's Michael & Lilith Aquino making a pizza delivery to the Presidio

I've had the NES version of that game for a long time. It's one of the best two-player games on the system, and a lot of people completely overlook it. It's pretty expensive, but you'd think people would have given it another look considering that emulation has been around for decades now.

I'm not sure if this is the best place for this but Max did start out in a series of commercials before he got his own show. To repost what I said on /comfy/ and also an anon's reply:
>Interesting thing about Max is that despite the character being a computer generated character, even claimed as one to the public at one point, Max is an actor in a mask and a lot - maybe even most - of the "CG" stuff was acomplished with in camera effects with a bit of analogue electronic wizardry to fill in the gaps.

<I broadcast chromakey equipment in the 80's had a double-buffer capability (what we'd call z-buffering in vidya dev today) totalling a whopping 2MB in size (and over US$100k for that!). So yeah, I bet you're right about the technical part of it.

Those "electronic" grid lines behind him is a practical effect too. It's just reflective tape on a black background. The opening to Escape from New York used a similar effect, probably among many other examples.

I figured there was zero CGI involved. No way they had facial animations this good in the 80s. For an interesting (and amusing) look at what "state of the art" CGI looked like back then, check out Tony de Peltrie (1985).
