(Arcade) Documentaries
« on: June 08, 2011, 01:08:18 PM »

just curious: has anyone from this forum watched once upon atari or get lamp yet? how cool would it be if they were to show up on etienne's server miraculously. 8) additionally, etienne's server is somewhat empty without special when lit and doctor kong ... ;)

i've just watched game over: kasparov and the machine (again) the other day and while it is not arcade stuff as we know it, this documentary has to do with machines and i think it totally kicks ass!!! imho one of the best ones out there!
all i need is ... PONG - and a select few others: TOUCH ME, DRAGON'S LAIR, JOUST, ROBOTRON, MR DO, SAN FRANCISCO RUSH THE ROCK!!!

What's wrong with actually buying the stuff if you wanna see it?

So far the only one I've seen are:
The King of Kong  :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace:
Chasing Ghosts  :spaceace: :spaceace: :spaceace:
Special when lit  :spaceace: :spaceace:
High Score  :spaceace: :spaceace:

I'll try to see the other documentaries you're mentioning, thanks for the tip.

We all now the only reason why I'm attending Eurocade is to take that historical picture of Ully playing pinball!

strange, right? but those pins in the documentary have a video monitor in them (pinball 2000), so i had to watch it ;). additionally, i'm a fan of tim burton's mars attacks! however, i still think that both revenge from mars and the star wars pinball 2000 flippers are pretty lame - i simply don't get the fascination.

Maybe I get my VP pcb fixed till then ;) the rest of the cab ist working (tested with Lascheks working board). It's fun! The optic is amazing. If I get it on track on time I can leave a mini (or both) home and bring the VP. Till now it's not working though.

That would be brilliant !!! I haven't even plugged in my VP yet (pointless, there's still a ROM missing on the PCB ;))

@Ully: Video Pinball DOES have a real monitor in there.....keep guessing :D

If it's only the ROMs I have a working romset for you. I swapped my PALs (all 16 of them), because eight or nine were messed up. I got a romset from a klov-guy that uses the spare rom sockets on the board and needs only four roms instead of 16 PALs. Just drop me a pm if you need them ;)
