Bonanza Bros. & Michael Jackson Moonwalker (Arcade)

[williewonka2k1]

My fondest gaming memories ever was back in 1992 when I would go to Chuck E Cheese's and play Bonanza Bros. and the Arcade version of Moonwalker, which fucking dominated the genesis version. The Moonwalker Arcade was setup more along the lines of TMNT 2: Arcade, which is another one of my fondest gaming memories at Chuck E Cheese too. Anyone else share same memories as well or related?

I remember the Moonwalker arcade game from the movie theater back in the day. The music was always turned up louder than the surrounding machines, so it was a full-on experience. The 3 player multiplayer and dancing as a smart bomb definitely different.

It was their big draw until they got a TMNT machine. Then it was relegated to the corner and eventually disappeared. By that point the 1p joystick was screwed anyway (yes, I would still drop a quarter into it occasionally). Much cooler than the Genesis version, but it unfortunately hasn't really aged too well.

Despite all the child molester talk, I can still dig MJ's music in a nostalgic sense. The Moonwalker movie was actually pretty cool, and the game is a nice extended representation of it. Strange how Michael was on a mission to save children from a madman. Interesting.

I remember Moonwalker quite well, I enjoyed the top down style perspective more than side scrolling Genesis version quite a bit, and it was very fun to play. Definetely better than the Genesis version.

I'm probably in the minority but I like the Genesis Moonwalker more than the arcade game. I enjoyed both of them quite a bit.

Bonanza Bros. is pretty cool although I'm not a huge fan. Fans of the game should definitely pick up Sega Classics Collection for the slightly remade version.

What with the scandals of Jacko molesting children, the plot of Moonwalker (rescuing children from Mr. Big) seems very ironic. What's more, Michael Jackson himself designed the game.
