  • Yeah, owning a MAME cab only leads to owning real ones. MAME just isn't good enough. It's a gateway drug.

Yeah, the DVD version is unplayable.
I just remember the real game being another of those "press this button at this exact time or die" games.
For the price, it just wasn't worth it. It WAS cool looking, though. Nice effect.

How much was it originally to play?  The one I used to play was a quarter.

This was when it first came out. $1.00, I think.

Looking back I agree on the acting, but it sure seemed cool when I was a kid.  I used to really like watching the older kids play it.   I tried it once or twice and it was cool but I died quickly.

If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.

What was that game you had a firetruck & you had to steer from the front & back, that would be hard, I remember playing that game when I was very young
I carry both ultimarc & happ items, all brand new & I ship from the united states. My online store is ARCADEEMULATOR.NET, pm if I can help in anyway.
