Title: FT: Joysticks DVD - 80s Video Game Movie
Post by: yotsuya on August 21, 2012, 04:03:29 pm
A few months ago, we were talking about that 80s movie Joysticks, which is basically one of those bad 80s sophomoric sex comedies. However, this one takes place in an arcade and has some pretty nice shots of cabinets and games in action. Also, boobies.

Although it's no Porky's, I will admit to throwing it on as background filler more than a number of times while working on stuff. I have this copy on DVD:

http://www.amazon.com/Joysticks-Joe-Don-Baker/dp/B000I0RNU2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1345579044&sr=8-4&keywords=Joysticks (http://www.amazon.com/Joysticks-Joe-Don-Baker/dp/B000I0RNU2/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1345579044&sr=8-4&keywords=Joysticks)

If anyone here is interested in trading something for it, let me know. I'm not looking for much for it, I'd just like to get it in someone's hands who's curious about it or maybe even has fond memories of it. Let me know what you want to swap for it. PM me or post it here.  :cheers:

Remember, boobies.

I'd need at least two cases.... If you haven't seen his yet, you'd probably need a case yourself to watch it!  :cheers:

It's a fun bit of 80s arcade nostalgia, though. Again, make me an offer!

Did I mention the boobies?

Whaaa? Naw....there is no way that that any item on this board would be gone without explicitly saying sold. 3 years is nothing to wait for a response.  ;D


Thanks for the tip,  I have some strange PCB labeled "Marble Man", whatever the heck that is. I was gonna trade it to yot for the dvd, but you saved me the effort.  Well, time to fire up utorrent.

Funny thing about that DVD... I had a trade  arranged with a former esteemed member for, ironically enough, some joysticks, so I sent it and he responded, "Hey, bro, sorry but I got a good deal and so I sold those off. What else do you want?" I really wanted the joysticks, but since they weren't  available anymore, I asked him what else he had. He offered  me some magic beans, but I declined. So mofo sent me back the DVD, and I gave it to Neph.

Well - since you no longer have the DVD and now you're thinking about how much you miss those Boobies - there is a torrent that's being seeded you might be interested in  :laugh2:

The guys at StarFighters just told me that if I decided to build the Joystick Arena for ZapCon, that they'd support me with it. Hmmmm..
