Im not talking about flying cars , flux capacitors or hover boards. Heck im not even talking about dehydrated pizza or time travel in general!
Im talking about that damn Wild gunman arcade game Marty plays in the 80s cafe!!!:bullshit:
All these years that movie had me fooled!!! I watched it earlier today and thought to myself "HEY I think thats a famicon revolver zapper hes using"...you know the cool looking one we never got here in the states because some one would try to rob a quikie mart with it or something.
Off to wiki and bam ! Another childhood memory ruined!!!
The arcade game shown never existed!!!
Why didnt I just leave it alone....?
By the way the "future" part of that movie takes place in 2015 so maybe it just hasant been built yet!!! lol

Nah, it's a homebrew port for the Wii 2. I heard they'll also have hover balance boards and full simulations of Ronald Reagan. LOL

Replacement parts are sure to be harder to find in 2015. More than likely someone just hacked it together figuring no one would know the difference. Heck, spend any time around old arcade games now and you'll many hacked together from various diferent parts. Now, Marty probally did notice the difference but it didn't affect his skill. He's just cool like that.
There you go...childhood memory restored.

Whats really sad about the whole thing is I swear Ive seen that arcade game way back when. But then again I swear up and down ive seen the "tree" fatality in mk2 when I was a kid too! So who knows??? Im losing all faith at this point...LOL

Someone over at KLOV actually built an accurate Wild Gunman cabinet.

Who really cares that it doesn't exist. You have to use your hands like a baby's toy.
