interesting to watch:

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

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Nothing new.

Also loved Barbara's segue at the end, smooth move for two starkly dissimilar stories.

The leaning is annoying.  The fingers over the top is pretty lame on the 8 and 16 bit games, but I'll admit I played PS1 fighters like that where I was used to the arcade tapping with two fingers.

I love how they address Nintendo limiting released inventory to create hype.  And here we thought they only did this with the Wii.

Haha those videos were great to watch.  Seeing those games on racks reminded me of walking through the aisles in Toys R Us and begging my mom to let me buy games like Blades of Steel and Fun House. 

Also, was the Inside Edition reporter Bill O' Riely???

Yep. Search Youtube for his Inside Edition freak out. (NSFW)
