The main menu, I would be fine with. Have a demos/trailers section. It's not the end of the world, I just really hope this product placement isn't in the other ports.
I don't think it's too much to expect the recreation of one of my favorite games of all time to have immersion that holds up to the immersion of the original decades on into the future.
Like I said, this game is a piece of art, and the ads will become obsolete far before the last fans stop playing it. Then, the advertisements will not only break the immersion, but they won't even fully serve their original promotion purposes. And don't worry, my proclamation of love for the series wasn't attacking the validity of anyone else's.
