Galaxian Theater / Re: GALAXIAN 3 MINOLTA TOWER FOOTAGE, 1994

It's great to bring out those old videos again, especially if they?re the only ones that exist from that place.  :spaceace:

Funny to see that even back then, the operators struggled to align the two projectors and their overlapping images.  :)

chinese tv, new ones? how much are they?

They are really cheap!  8)
But I have to admit, they're not built all that well. I've already fried four or five of them...  :oops: I think they can do the job for home use, but I wouldn't let these boards run 10 hours a day for months like the old-school monitors did. Still, for my setup, they get the job correctly...

Galaxian Theater / GALAXIAN 3 MINOLTA TOWER FOOTAGE, 1994
« Last post by funworld_enthusiast on October 30, 2025, 09:26:21 PM »
PLEASE READ

Here's my video of the Galaxian 3 that once operated at the Minolta Tower in Niagara Falls! Previously, there was no videos OR photos of this Galaxian 3, but after looking around on a post online (which, I don't believe many people have seen), I found a video with footage with the game! (original footage used in my video was much longer, I just got rid of the parts without Galaxian 3). However, the true heroes of this story are the ones who actually filmed it, so here's channel credit for the footage.

@BryceBarnetteHomeVideos (@ on YouTube)

This video also disproves the belief that the game was installed in 1995, as it was taken in June 1994.

1 hr 30 min original video where my video's footage was taken from (also features the Skylon Tower arcade!): https://youtu.be/wLvuZJi-17A?si=LwTq26Ib-K_PMGGA

Dang, after a short hiatus (two months!), here's an update  :roll:

T-molding installed, and here's the first side finally fully finished  :arrow:



Received the second side art artwork...



...now installed!



New T-molding session. It's my least favorite step. No luck  :arrow: this Italian version of the cabinet has quite a long stretch of it  :? ...



Well, it's not finished yet, but I really wanted to see Dragon's Lair 2 running on the original tube. The chassis, meanwhile, is a brand new Chinese one. It's starting to look pretty awesome, right? I'm happy: it's slowly waking up again  :D

Thanks for this footage. It's important to preserve records of this game in action.
I should dig through my old hard drives, I remember recording a lot of Zolgear sessions too, since that was the mission installed on my Galaxian Theater when I got it.
But I have to admit I quickly switched to Project Dragoon, as that mission left the strongest impression on me.

Here's a Let's Play video of the Galaxian 3 made by me  :)  :

For some reason, the enemies were WAY harder in the latter half of this playthrough, maybe because I won multiple times before.  ::)
Perhaps there is a automatic skill adjuster programmed in the game during game play? Would you know this DarthNuno?  ???   

I don't remember any adaptive difficulty.

Not to mention, this the only recorded "Mission Completed" Attack of the Zolgear game outside of Japan. ;)  :roll:
