I was born in 65, and the arcades of my childhood were pinball and electro mechanical games like this one. When Space Invaders and Asteroids and Pac Man came out, I lost interest in the old games. But it's remarkable to look at them now and just marvel at the creativity of the original game designers. Wonderful game, wonderful video!

Hey Alex can you film repairs on fix-it-Fridays and show us weekly ?😎🥃

Got an stl file for us, kind sir?

On space invaders part II its any bottom space invader left last is a 500 point bonus...

Hi Alex, just rewatching. Do you rate Combat School?

Love Robocop. Spectrum version is still my favourite (not that I am biased at all), and think it's probably one of the best pieces of music to ever grace the platform.

*ME GUSTAN TUS VIDEOS.SALUDOS*

Hi there. Can you please say what game is being played at 0:16? Looks like a multi-directional shmup. Thanks!

One of my favorites.

Wow, a Gee-Bee in the flesh. My ~6 year old self retained one of my very earliest memories when I visited a mall arcade. I saw that cabinet standing alone near the front. Even then, it struck me as a little archaic compared to titles like Space Invaders which managed to have graphics with scrutable detail. But Gee-Bee's artwork was so striking. That's certainly the reason I remember it.

My original robocop cabinet is gray. Interesting yours is blue

Love Bitmap Bureau! I want to get the SNES or Sega Genesis Version of this!

Great video. I’ve just picked up the arcade archives Nintendo Switch version to rekindle my youth. I had Daley Thompson on the C64 and loved it, back in the day.

What a place reminds me of playing all the classics with my late brother in the 80s brilliant memories thank you for the videos

Well enjoy your videos remember playing most of them in the 80s thank you

I think it would also be a challenge in SolidWorks, but definitely easier to do than in SketchUp. But anyway, your design is also very good work 👍👍👍🙂

19:19 - interestingly, the Average Height of an Adult Japanese Male born around 1960, is 5 feet 4 inches tall - which explains the viewing port, heh [Looking it up, O-Miyamoto was born in 1952 and is 5'5''] Fantastic nostalgia and enjoyment here - thank you

Back in 1988 I put 20c into Juno First and clocked the 999999 score 9 times on that single coin. Best 20c I ever spent.

22:17 Everything's flipped 😁

I like the way you pronounce 'electronics' 😁

Loved this game, played it on the beach arcades in Durban. Could finish it with one 20c coin 🕹

Watch part 2 now at ruclips.net/video/5OZiWNLp0p4/видео.html

22:30 So it was Klax on an original Atari Lynx... that also explains the Chip's Challenge and Blue Lightning. Todd's Adventure in Slime World with fit better with the Gloop theme ;-)

As an industrial designer seeing the process is equally fascinating and painful to watch. 😱🤯 It’s like building a car using only a sewing machine! If I would have known, I would have offered to do it properly in a nurbs CAD software package for free.

Very interesting. I have a sprint 2 PCB that I repaired (ram was bad so game wouldn't run) and have also acquired a full control panel. I don't have much room so I'm planning to make a bartop super sprint with loose pedals that will go on the floor and an old CRT TV sitting on top. I did a similar thing with a missile command PCB and control panel.

Magnificent British engineering

This was great, quite special! It was great to see Richard having so much fun with this video.

for those who wish to know 5.32km of filiment is 2909.11 fathoms around 3.3422935613353E-8 AU Austronomical Units or around 44.4x average Godzilla height (393 ft apparently) i only work in Godzilla's as a measurement now, very handy

Wait what?? Battlezone 2! I didn’t even know this existed 😮

I love the EM games. So many clever designs. By the way, I have a Midway Gunfight game and I love it. Simple but fun. I would love to have this Sega game also. Anothre fun game is Sea wolf, that is a little mix of a video game and an EM game with the additional lights for explosions. Very creative.

I remember finding this machine in my local arcade around 1983 I think. It was the loudest cab in the place. It was so intriguing with the huge sound and the speech which scared me a little as a kid so I preferred watching others playing it. It was too stressful for me back then, but the memory of it always stuck with me. I forgot it's name until this year as a vague memory until someone on You Tube told me once again. This is an awesome reminder. Nice one!

Hector Fly is the king of this game. I watch his Track N Field videos all the time. He has amazing speed when it comes to the button taps.

40 years later and it’s still the greatest video game ever created

Cool

Aww, man. that picture of Mark made me choke up a little. Looks like a really lovely guy, and must have been if his family are as cool as they seem to be. Well done in rescuing this gear. Some of Mark will live on in the things that he worked on being enjoyed by more people rather than go to waste. Good on ya!

What a work of art these old mechanical games were, they must've had a lot of fun (and perhaps a little frustration!) designing and building them.

Those R360 cost 75 grand including shipping from Japan back in the early 90's. which was a lot of money , it's equivalent in buying a brand new Lamborghini Huracan in todays money, ouch!

Oohh.. just seen that cheat on 110m hurdles where you play as 2 player and have the 2nd player finish after 1 minute has passed and you basically can get a 0.x time.... no wonder I saw such weird times back in the day...

This is the game that got me into game programming - all holiday money spent on one of these machines in Falmouth one summer

I lot of progress! All the bits and pieces look like they are coming up very well. A lot of hard work.

This is my favorite game from that era. I played so much of this game as a child.

Dobry Ziomuś 😎

Dump all of the Roms I’m doing it I asked about a game repository but they haven’t messaged back , AND I RUN A REAL arcade that gets used daily I know why breaks what to overclock and what to add rgb and speakers / also custom gpus and ram help

A pen, or pencil between your fingers like a seesaw is what i used.

Great video Alex, thanks! I made the mistake of accepting a Track and Field challenge by Neil when I visited and he broke out some bizarre finger tap technique I'd never seen before. In fact I've always wondered what's the maintenance like on these machines that get so much hammering? Do the buttons wear out or break sooner? I also loved the home adaptations, particularly Summer and Winter games. PS - nice HDR presentation too, what did you film and edit on? Was it an iPhone? It looks really good, but what software did you edit on?

That 3dprint could be used as a mould to make multiple fibreglass cabinets. Probably would be stronger too. Make 3 of them and get all colours.

I remember that game. I played it up in Reno, NV while my parents gambled. I got pretty good at it. Got it to go to the white screen. Probably the only game I was actually good at. Nice video. Maybe now I have a reason to buy a 3D printer... Or 20... Or not. BTW I seem to remember the one I played was red, but that was 50+ years ago.

Nice done bro, very good to see ppl who cares to those pieces of history, your respect for it its inspiring. Best of luck.

I played a blue one in the early 70's. I was so young I could just barely see the control panel. But I thoroughly enjoyed it. I thought it was the most futuristic thing I had ever encountered.

I think given the promotional pic was liveried in yellow, I'd personally go with yellow. But then, I love yellow. That said, if you can come up with a good glitter-paint solution, red would be my choice. Hell, I can't decide!
