Hey, that Galaxian³ looks familiar...
« on: November 14, 2014, 08:40:23 PM »
A couple of days ago, I was laid up with the 'flu.  This left me some time to check out The King Of Arcades, which I'd been looking forward to seeing.  The verdict: it's definitely worth watching - the movie isn't about chasing high scores or personality conflicts within the classic gaming scene or even the history of arcade gaming, but those are all parts of it.

Anyway, at the 1h25m mark, I spotted a familiar-looking Galaxian³ cabinet, and some random guy next to it ;D (click the image for the giant version)



Thought it was a really cool find.  I've been following the saga of Darth Nuno's G³ for years, and it was good to see it (and him) getting some screen time outside of the Internet.

By the way, if anyone is interested in the film, it's officially available from gog.com for US$3 in 720p with no DRM.

Oh, and this is my first post - Hi, everyone  :)

HI Casm,

Well spotted!
Funny, I thought with a such small picture, nobody would notice it... :P
Anyway, welcome to Galaxian3.net  ;)
