    Default My little show on 90'sish arcade gaming.

    I want this show of mine to find its audience and I've been scouring the web for it. Basically a 4 to 9 minute retrospective on arcade games I've played in the past, but they do come along with stories. Like the fact that the nearest arcade to my house was 14 miles away and I would bicycle there to play them. I'm not looking to take up much of your time and I'll still keep making them even if the view count is zero, but I feel they're quality, not JonTron type quality, but I'm doing the best with what I have. Give it a shot and as a bonus, you'll be in my good graces for life.

    P.S. any feedback is appreciated good or bad.

    Cool series, the handful of videos I just checked out had me entertained. I dig the focus on '90s arcade games and it's enjoyable to hear your personal tales and insights as they relate to first impressions back in the day and all that. My only real gripe has to do with volume levels throughout the video, certain sounds (like the intro dial-up scream in the more recent uploads) are jarringly louder than your narration. Otherwise, I found the overall production value to be good enough to make these vids perfectly watchable. Good stuff!

    Love it. I'll admit that I'm primarily a 70's and 80's guy when it comes to the arcades. I didn't go to arcades too much in the 90's although I have tried some of the games in your videos. I love the focus on that decade though. Great stuff

    I love the videos. Good humorous touch. Too bad you don't review 80's arcade cabs.

    You don't like Star Wars?... You just got yourself a subscriber!

    Seriously though, really nice series. Good info in there as well. Agree with the first comment though, that beep in the beginning made my ears cry.

    Nice work!

    Yeah I was still learning, I toned it down considerably after we got the new logo for the website.

    Well, one thing I really don't advertise is that it's an open forum, In fact the next episode has a guest writer. If you feel so inclined, write a few paragraphs about a game and I'll take care of the rest, and believe me, I give almost too much credit for stuff like that.

    NARC was 80's, but a guest writer did Rampage for the next episode. I'm looking for whoever wants to write for that era, I was still in single digit ages back then and Nintendo was my only outlet for games in that decade.
