Mount your trusty ostrich and avoid the nasty lava troll.

Prepare to joust, buzzard bait!

Here’s some #arcadeGame #nostalgia for you. In 1978, Kasco, a Japanese arcade game maker, released “The Driver”, a driving game where the player is required to make inputs into a steering wheel to “drive” a car on screen to chase a red car.

But instead of a player-controlled car, the game uses a loop of 16 mm film, containing live-recorded footage. At the bottom of the frame, hidden from the player, is a white/black bar that represents the optimal steering input for that moment in the film. If the player deviates too much from the prescribed input for too long, the game is over.

This is a 4K scan of that film. While it’s obviously sped up, there is some really cool stunt driving going on!

another early version of the arcade marqee light with remote controled LEDs and the tempest marquee panel, done in red PLA. the top picture shows it dissassembled and bottom shows it assembled and lit.
the magnets arent in design at this point. it was to be glued and the marqee couldnt be changed.
(excuse LED Layout.. it was just a test of the LEDs so mashed them in there)

Some pics from a really cool Pinball museum - Electromagnetic Pinball in Providence, RI. I last visited in April, 2023 💗
This place was really fun and had a ton of pinball machines as well as other arcade games! I’m definitely due for a visit soon

Figured I would make the best of my time in the city and engage in some Tourist Traps™️

Went up to Fisherman's Wharf and visited Musée Mécanique. I last visited this area 10 years ago but didn't have time to visit this because I was with family then.

Was a bit surprised that in addition to all these old timey amusement machines, they had arcade video games as well.

...good god, after playing on so many Japanese cabs, American arcade cabs are horrifically unergonomic! But I managed to pull a decent score on Raiden Fighters Jet because I remembered how to unlock X-medal mode.

Usually I don't race high-star wanted ghosts because they're often Hakone ghosts and Hakone makes my brain cells BSOD, but this one was an Ikebukuro ghost

Best of 2024: Arcade Games

I played dozens of games in 2024. Trying to distill them down to "the best" is hard. First up: arcade games.

AI-generated picture of a PlayStation 4 controller overlaid with the words "Best Arcade Games of 2024". I should have added "That I Played, And None Are Actually From 2024", but I didn't. Until now, so if you're reading this, I meant to have all these words there, too.

Color me suspicious, but I don't think this the arcade game in Windsor, NL has a legitimate ROM. #ArcadeGame #PirateROM #PacMan

Attract screen for a video game titled "4 FUN IN 1" by Food and Fun. Features a game called "The Ghost Munchers" which looks to be a pirated version of Pac Man.
