This may be a strange request , but maybe your the guy for the job.... I've been fascinated with Operation Tootsie Roll since I was a child because my grandfather was involved in it.... He was a Marine Gunny that served in the Chosin Reservoir as well as Vietnam.... I've tried to get Fat Electrician to do a video on it. Went as far as spending on super chats to make SURE he saw my comments.... But no luck.... I can't find any information on it.... I just want to know how such a mistake was made. Idk if that's something you would be interested in doing or not, but I was always told "closed mouth's don't get fed" so here's to hoping 🙏... Regardless thanks for your service Nd God bless.

The Biggest mistake was that when NEC-Hudson Soft decided to bring the Turbo to the Americas...The World already had gone 16-bit Crazy. Unfortunately the Turbo was Built to compete in the 8-bit Arena. It was very Bad Luck and Bad Timing. The TurboGrafx will always be my favorite console. The SuperGrafx was NEC's Real 16-bit system.

It would have made no difference, Sony had won its audience and sold people an idea, that their new machine was going to be able to do things it could not and also had a DVD drive, I literally had shop assistants telling me to not buy anything for Dreamcqast and just wait and buy a PS2 when it was going to be released. The Dreamcast was fine the way it was, People that owned a PS1 naturally wanted to stay brand loyal.

There was that saying about dying a hero or you'll live long enough to be a villain. With Hollywood apparently they thought it's more like live long enough to be a washed up shell of your former self. Personally I think it's got a lot to do with post modernism getting into cultural works like film. See these heroes you loved and aspired to be like? Well what if they weren't actually so great? What if in stead of noble or stoic they became weird and greedy? The issue is heroes like Han and Luke both fought with their personal demons and won. Seeing them regress, grab a spark of greatness, and die is a story not worth telling. Especially when the writers are double hamfisting in a character less flawed, more skilled, more powerful, more morally pure, and just too perfect to replace them. If you have to tear down whats old to build anew you better be sure the new thing is better than the old. In the case of new Star Wars I don't think they hit the mark.

Both films are my go to for recommendations for so bad its good in anime. The plot twist at the end with Geist activating the Death Force made me burst out laughing.

So I wanted to wait till I watched the entire video until I commented. While I've never seen this movie I can tell you that there are quite a few very good actors in the movie This just goes to show you how important a great director is. If you had given this script to at least John Boorman it would have been pretty flippin awesome. My condolences to the actors who probably had to endure hours and hours and hours of Uwe Bol. I actually quite like this format and would watch more of these if you made them.

The mock-ups you use for what an SVP add-on might have looked like get the point across and give you something to put label art on, but I suspect that the thing would have looked like the Virtua Racing cart itself. I think the thing looks like a Super Game Boy for a reason. With the odd ridges near the top that don't allow a label that overlaps the upper edge (unlike just about every Sega-published Genesis/MD and 32-X cart), I get the feeling the shell design was left over from a design phase that had that modularity in mind. And just looking at the circuit board for Virtua Racing, the ROM chips on their own could have fit into something like a thick Game Gear cartridge.
@HistoricNerd
@HistoricNerd 2 ай бұрын
That is honestly Something I would have loved to see. My mock up was just me creating something visually similar with existing sega Carts. I think i made this video over 6 years ago, so I have to think a bit harder these days to remember exactly what i was thinking at the time. But my assumption was something along the lines of if the SVP had done better they might have leaned into that style a bit. But yeah without the physical SVP chip youre most likely correct in that they could have cut down the size for the game carts.

The casting of the three leads was 100% down to a studio mandate, I absolutely guarantee it. All three were "hot" actors at the time. There's zero chance that they were choices Chris Roberts would have wanted to make. The other casting choices are clearly ones which Roberts was able to have a say upon; the likes of David Warner.

One of the Bradley Trainer prototypes somehow found its way into an arcade on the seafront here in England, so perhaps more than two were made. Would have been around the end of the 1990's I think, they had a large number of rather old machines filling up one barely lit corner of the arcade, so perhaps they imported a container load of cheap unwanted arcade machines from a supplier in the US. I was initially quite excited when I saw what looked a bit like a Battlezone amongst the junk machines, one of my all time favourite arcade games, which I'd not played for years. I remember looking at the machine and being quite puzzled by it, it had a very strange set of controls, most notably the dial, and also all the extra buttons and a clearly well used, battered yoke that held together with Allen bolts, and had different shaped tanks to battlezone plus a helicopter, but had what appeared to be the original battlezone background mountains and volcano, and the text that appeared on the screen still called it Battlezone, despite the completely different name on the cabinet. I had no idea it wasn't a regular arcade game, and I doubt the arcade knew either, it was probably the most disappointing arcade machine I've ever played, the gameplay made no sense to me and I had no idea what the dial and some of the buttons did, you couldn't move the tank, just turn the turret, firing a missile brought up crosshairs which was interesting, but you only got two or three shots, nothing seemed to shot at you and my first game ended abruptly and I had no idea why. On my second try I ran out of ammo, rockets etc and there seemed to be no way to end it, and I assumed the game had crashed.

​@@HistoricNerd I'm pretty certain it was the arcade at Clacton Pavilion, but I would say there is no chance of it still being there, I think there's now a restaurant in the building where part of the arcade was and a "fun park" on the rest of the site. I usually avoided the place, but went in one day to have a look to see if they had anything decent and came across this machine and a good pinball machine, that I got into playing. It may have been Medieval Madness pinball which would have made it around 1998. I do recall looking for the machine at a later date and not finding it, so it was either moved or more likely sold/got rid of, I can't imagine it taking much money. I believe the site was owned by the local council, hence little or no money was spent on it. The lower level of the building had been converted to an arcade and all the windows were boarded up, so it was a sorry state, despite being a prime location right next to Clacton pier. I think since then, the site has been leased to a private company who have probably spent a few million on it.
