For the record - I loved the fog machine. Hilarious, dude. Congrats on your collection and can’t thank you enough for taking the time to entertain us with your GREAT videos. Mad respect. ❤

That really means a lot, man! I really do focus on entertainment more than deep dives (although I do that sometimes) so the fact you're entertained means the world to me. That's really my main reason for doing this, give people something arcade related that's easy to watch and get their mind off things, even if it's just for a short period of time. Thanks so much for watching and taking the time to comment!

It's been really cool to watch your collection grow. Love home arcade walkthroughs. I haven't picked up many cabs recently, but I'm always on the lookout. Trying to find a good deal on a few classics; Pac-Man/Ms. Pac, Centipede, Asteroids Deluxe, and Space Invaders Deluxe. Not hard to find games, but I don't want to break the bank so I bide my time lol

A few months ago I asked you about the electrical setup in the garage, I think it was the poppin' the breaker video, if you just had everything plugged in to electrical sockets in the garage, when you upgrade the electrical, please do a techy nerd electrical upgrade video. Thanks for this tour!

Top 10 - Sinistar, Star Wars, Total Carnage, MKII, Satan's Hollow, N.A.R.C., Crime Fighters, TMNT, Gimme A Break, 1943. In no particular order. I could do a top 25, but that would take longer. LoL

@ScottOmatic Жыл бұрын

Great collection tour, Ralph. In this video you often mention that quite a few of your machines go for a lot of money now. I think it would be a great video idea if you picked some of what you think are the best arcade cabinets that are on the cheaper side of things that offer a good value, doesn't have to necessarily be from your own collection. Cheers.

@arthursnyder6935 Жыл бұрын

For the Ms Pac-Man/Galaga Class of 81 arcade cabinet there are two secret codes for that thing When you press Left, Right, Left, Right, Up, Up, Up then the fire button it will make you move faster (Ms Pac-Man) or shoot faster (Galaga) but more famously, if you press Up,Up,Up,Down,Down,Down,Left, Right, Left, Right, Left itll let you play the original Pac-Man

I have to pretend that others are just as bad or worse than me to make myself feel better. That being said, I'm officially retired now! I mean it this time!!!! Any new games you see on my channel I bought months ago! I thought you were going to be buried in Smash TV? Which is it? Also, happy to have helped with you getting The Grid.
