The force is strong with that one!

It is the worthy successor of the classic Atari !
-
Where do I order one ? ;)
-
Nice, I want one
-
Sweet, are there any coming to the EU? Are there any Mach Storm machines n the EU?
-
WOW...vectror graphics have been improved a lot since those days :)
-
that´s probably the only "new" arcade game I would like to own.
but i have to play it to know for sure. i wonder if the gameplay is as good as the classic one.
-
I suppose this is the official trailer?

lol... don´t expect too much from me. :D

Wow, better start saving, so that I can own this classic in about 20 years! Will be great looking next to its then 50 years old predecessor! :D
The name of the game is a bit lame though, battle pod, IMO

-

Looks like these games can be linked?
-
I'll take one.
;D
-
Where did that awesome Battle Pod photo come from? Is it some kind of trade show that is happening?
-
Not into arcade games any more, but I take the carpet!!!
-EDIT-
After seeing a couple of videos, it looks like the joystick and thruster is a bit flimsy, I dont think they can take the punishment in an arcade for long....
-

Vader himself is there! :P :arrow:

Interesting - Gravitar is on my wanted games list.... ;)

I'm sure you can find one for the money of the ICB ;)
-

Don't know the price, but I'm sure this should big a way much expensive than that!
The IAAPA is an expo that present stuff for theme park, Roller coasters and huge stuff like that... mostly only amusement park could afford a such setup? Or not? :-\
-
Yeah, got tired of them constantly breaking down... >:( :'(
just don't turn them on, then they can't break down :P
i'll take your rainbow islands pcb ;D
-

oh.. i guess he got it wrong. he brought it to me along with his Star Wars. Now everything makes sense... cause when he left he said: "Goodbye, Ullrich!"
-
LOL !
-
:D... how can I bring this thread back to the initial topic? .... mhhhh... ok, see this :
Someone was in New Year last month and found the brand new Star Wars Battlepod playable at the Dave & Buster's on Time Square.
During his game, the game started to freeze, and ... and ... this screen :arrow:
(https://www.dragonslairfans.com/forforum3/starwars_battlepod_crash.jpg)
Windows powered! ;D
-
The Dark Side Indeed!
-
Sigh....
-
Windows? :shock:
I had expected they had used something self developed or at least a linux distribution.....(http://www.thludwig.de/pics/smilies/shakehead.gif)
-
Maybe its windows, but the CLI that is in the screenshot looks like Linux to me with the " [OK] " in the end of each line..
(http://cdn.imthi.com/5ee712/wp-content/uploads/2013/04/Raspberry-Pi-Resize-Boot-Screen.jpg)
-
It is Linux.
-
Definitely Windows.
The title bar seems to contain "C:¥Windows¥System32¥WindowsPowerShell¥v1.0¥powershell.exe".
It's also using the Windows Classic theme.

Here's the full size picture :arrow:
-
I rest my case! :D
-
Nothing wrong with windows (probably core install) and powershell
-
Ow OK. Canceling my order....and I should have known....Linux wouldn't have crashed... ;D
-
I really pity future arcade game collectors. They're going to have one hell of a job too keep those Windowz boxes up and running in 30 years........compared to that, fixing an early 80's PCB is going to be a walk in the park.
-
The game froze, windows is still running...
And it looks like its just booting the game
-
They should start to preserve the drivers :D
-
New trailer available right here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=swz3dsuE5mM).
Be Darth Vader!!!! :shock: :P

I tried the battle pod last week and it's amazing
That me in the clip
-
looks very cool Alex :spaceace: :spaceace:
-
Thanks mate
What I found funny about the cab though was that it had a fan inside which came on when the ships went past, which added to the experience but there is no wind on space lol ha ha
-
I want to...no I NEED to play their previous one... mach storm!
-
the wind effect is also present in other modern arcades games, it really adds indeed
I played Darke Escape 4D, also a rail shooter, this has 3D glasses, a great sound system with subwoofer and wind, scared the hell out of me sometimes..... and it also measures your heartbeat and makes fun of you where you "panic"
-
Waha, CKONG and I played the same machine, in Renesse I bet :)
I think we didn't go with the 3D glasses but it was already scary enough, CKONG screamed like a schoolgirl all the time.............. ;D ;D ;D ;D......
The thing is that it's not simply a fan (like propcycle) but something that feels much more like an explosion of air...it really gives a loud "thud" sound.I wonder how it works.
We really had a lot of fun playing that game !!
Of course there is no air in space, and thus there wouldn't be any explosion sounds either......but I've learned to turn off thinking about stuff like that when watching anything Star Wars and simply "enjoy the ride".
Hope one of these will make it over here !!!
-
That's the old Windows man (it looks like a linux system : strange or not ...) : we are in 2015, Linux is the way to go :spaceace:.

Star Wars Battle Pod: Standard Edition announced! :arrow:
(https://www.dragonslairfans.com/forforum4/starwarsnamco.jpg)
source & details here on Arcade Heroes (http://arcadeheroes.com/2015/08/14/aama-star-wars-battle-pod-sonic-dash-crossy-road/).
...a link mode? It would be awesome if it could be a vs fight (luke vs vader) :P
-
Might have to put this next to my Star Wars Trilogy.... Need more space
-
Want.
-
I hope they will increase the game (re)play value on that Standard Edition.
Because the battle pod version is more an impressive ride/experience than a real 'challenging' game.
So if they keep the same game(play) but without being inside an immersive cockpit, I'm not sure this gonna a cool game to own?
Of course, I can be wrong, I've never tried the game so far....
...oh ... whatever! It's written Star Wars on it ... so ... NEED TOO! ;) :P
