80's Classic Video Games

[DTro]

I just got done watching a documentary called "King of Kong Fistful of Quarters"

Anyone who has enjoyed playing classic arcade video games should find some time to watch it.

What a story.

Thinking anyone who missed that ERA of gaming should be watching it also!

You just cant mess with the classics... they were great then.. and they are great now.

Atari beats out the WII and PS3 any day in books

Also.. the Nintendo.. 1942, 1943.. AWESOME classics

I went to a garage sale at a ministers house a couple years ago and got 2 2600 consoles and a ton of games, one of which is "Porkys" that one shocked me a little bit.

I miss the old stand up arcade games, the one I loved next to galaga was called something like all-pro wrestling, you got a pale wimpy looking guy that was your wrestler and fought, win that and to continue = another quarter and sometimes the dreaded Sheik would come out of the audience and attack you.

That wrestling one was fun.

If you enjoyed stand up arcade at all, you would appreciate this movie.
