Galaxian Theater / Re: Galaxian3 emulation finally showing signs of life!
« on: November 08, 2026, 09:18:57 PM »
https://youtube.com/post/UgkxTywu6Fubcm_5I5PPaoh0XrnICLabWjy5 A new version was dropped. This is based on the work of John Bennett and is sped up through AI assisted optimization. John is not the biggest fan of the emulation quality, but he wanted something playable out before Teknoparrot stole his work for profit. Enjoy Galaxian 3 at home.

A build has been released. I wouldn't quite call it playable yet, but it is a start.

Checked the YouTube comments on the teaser. Progress has apparently been made, perhaps a new teaser is on the way? I will report back later.

Galaxian Theater / Re: Galaxian 3 Funworld Updates (Last Update: gunner 6 aim issues)

As of now, the cabinet has several issues despite being playable. Gun 6 has had the coin slots taped over due to the aim failing. The audio was functional briefly, but is now silent except for the gun towers. Most concerningly, the left Laserdisc is having an issue where it loses sync with the right side and seemingly skips back to the start if the track. This happens most often on the Zolgear Brain Core, but occasionally affects the title screen in the attract mode.

So it turns out that Phil Bennett's brother has been working on emulating Galaxian3. It is not yet playable, and it is slow and buggy, but it is still being worked on. I congratulate you all on having lived long enough to see this.

According to Fun World's Facebook, the Laserdisc player was sucessfully replaced today. Full functionality has apparrently been restored. I will report back when I have verified this.

As of right now, the left laserdisc player is totally dead. I was told that there are plans to replace it.

So it turns out that if you ask the technician there, he can turn the theater on for an hour. The reason it's not always on is because of a fault that develops on the left side, presumably due to a failing laserdisc player. The sound is screwed up too. However, the game is still enjoyable in it's entirety, and efforts are being made to fix the issue.

As of now, the game is powered off. Investigation is being done into a solid state solution to the LaserDisc problem.

Hey DarthNuno, they seem to want your help on Twitter. Just letting you know.

Goodness, I'm having a bit of trouble finding my way around using X/Twitter  :-[ . Could you point out what kinds of requests there are?

I have found a tweet presumably from this arcade.

Interesting, they use Windows XP machines to run the LD emulator?

Snaaaap! I saw that as well. :shock:

Also pretty wild that they apparently almost got a newer rev of Project Dragoon as well, but missing a rom.

For Context: https://www.mameworld.info/ubbthreads/showflat.php?Number=397843

I've just been informed that that missing ROM has been dumped after it was found. This is great news.

I read up on this. Remember earlier when there was a later revision of Project Dragoon that was missing a ROM? They found it. The whole game is now dumped.

The game was actually working on Sunday, the day after you went. However, the left LaserDisc background was failing. I assume the game will be intermittently non-functional while technicians work to repair it fully. Next time I go, I will bring my GoPro and head strap to get some really good gameplay footage. That or I will have a family member record, IDK which option I will go for yet.
