Impressive list, but the question remains: Where did they all go? Do you guys think they all got destroyed??

btw I never knew Gorf was available in Europe

There was a Gorf in our amusement park's arcade in Budapest, as I remember it was around 1983-84.
Btw. nice video and great job, thanks for golden trio to let this happen! ;D

I think I've seen Gorfs back in the day. Then again, Hommerson Scheveningen was an arcade I visited every now and then in those days (whenever my parents felt like going to "the beach"...) I still go there about twice a year !

Well, let's face it. Most of them are probably long destroyed. Then again, I always pretend that my SW cockpit is the one that used to be there in Scheveningen ;) ;) (Shame that it isn't on _this_ video..... :( )

Of course there is 0 proof about that.

And let's imagine that that Speed Freak that recently got sold was the one on that video :)

By the way, I'm translating the next video as we speak. This one is probably more of interest for the pinball fans, but it's still loads of fun for all classic arcade fans.....

Great....but I first transcript all the Dutch, then translate.
Best way to do it like this.

It's sometimes amazing how "difficult" Ruud makes his sentences (in a try to appear more intelligent maybe ? :) )

I think I've seen Gorfs back in the day.

I've seen several. Heck, I own one with Belgian Franc coin acceptors :)

Most games were in Europe, just not in the same density as the US, I even remember an environmental discs of Tron in Brussels.

Many thanks to the "Dynamic Trio" for subtitling and bringing that docu back to life!!
The cameraman probably had only one hand free to play Crazy Climber that only would excuse his poor performance  ;D

Sorry no. Didn't have time this weekend (we were away) and the weeks before....not too much time either....

Also, my motivation got a big blow when I discovered that
a) the stuff is already on youtube (the Xenon voice stuff)
b) the material is simply a "redone" documentary by (I guess) the BBC. However, we have source material in the best quality available and I think we have the complete item so there is still reason to do it but it's not on my top priority list at the moment.

The temporary storage near "de kuip" will be closing it's doors soon. I need to move some rubbish out of there (including an Exidy Circus cabinet) AND move the Video Pinball to my gameroom. That means I need to clean up the gameroom A LOT....so I'm going to be very busy next week.....sorry guys, but it will surface sooner or later...

Hold your horses, you have an extra 4 weeks.  :) Wanted to PM you about it, but this will do also. Now you have some extra time (to work on the SW monitor  ;) :D )
