- Classic Game Room HD reviews BURGERTIME for Atari 2600 VCS video computer system! What's time? No... not to get ill, it's time for Hamburgers! Juicy, plump, blocky hamburgers made Atari-style. Burger Time is a 1982 Data East arcade game that has millions of fans worldwide because of it's awesome gameplay and challenge. This Atari 2600 version loses much in translation, but still retains some elements that make gameplay fun. It's a lousy M-Network game cartridge but holds a challenging if somewhat abstract attempt to recreate Burgertime on the Atari. This is one retro arcade classic on the Atari 2600 that you can find cheap today and may want to add to your collection. Classic Game Room reviews old school games with the same passion that we eat hamburgers with onions, mayo, lettuce and ketchup!

imagine my disappointment when I start working at a fast food and discover this is not how you make burgers!
i worked for fast food too . but i DID make the burgers this way. step on the bottom bun and mush it. then stepped on the burger, mushed it. then lettuce and tomatos, mushed 'em. then top bun i stepped on , mushed it , wrapped it up , then gave it to customer. the key is to keep an eye on their face as they start to eat it while they sit in the dining area... oh and keep a guy with a mop on standby. teaches them not to try ordering a burger from 7-11 again🤪 well .... more like a 7- 11 / biker bar / panera bread / target
"I always tend to screw up and got myself disemboweled by Mr. Hotdog." Best. Quote. Ever.
I'm actually really impressed by that considering the limitations of the 2600. The graphics may be REALLY simplified, but the sound and music are amazingly acurate to the arcade version. LOVE CGR!
Burgertime is also on the NES---pretty good version.
Also, a new Homebrew exists called "Beef Drop" for the Atari 5200 &7800, available on Atariage's website. It's very good.
For some reason, when I play Burgertime on my 7800, I have infinite lives--some kind of bug, which I've documented in my videos section here on RUclips.
Really enjoyed this game years ago, and would like to find it now. It is addicting. Nice review Mark.
The intelliVision version was one of the most sophisticated versions. It was so good it came as a pack-in later on.
The M-Network carts are all made by Mattel who is the same people that made the Intellivision. They just ported over their games to the Atari 2600 and stuck them in an Intellivision cart with an adapter on the end to fit into the 2600. That is why there is no artwork on the M-Network games. They also later made the games under INTV which look the same but have a white label instead of black. I'm not a fan of Dig Dug but I love Burgertime. The Colecovision port is one of my favorites.
I'm incredibly late, but you're pretty good at Burgertime! I'm jealous!
Reuben's ROCK...bring on "Reuben Time"...!!!
The yellow line is actually the pickle. I played the Intellivision version when I was a kid, and the graphics were much better.
Great review. Over at Atariage someone created a BT clone for the 7800 called Beef Drop VE It would be nice to see you do some reviews on Atari 2600 and 7800 Home Brew games.
that was my fav game back in the daysss.
The game was so improved with
a later title on later consoles called
Mr. Wimpy.
Nice!! I love this game and my brother and I use to spend hours playing this when we were little!
"Running from an egg"
That's Mister Egg and SIR Egg to you! :-)
I wish I had this for the Atari 2600. I played the NES version and yeah this here is one of those plain black carts.
I remember playing this for the NES at a friend's house way back in the day. I want this now for the Atari 2600.
I remember finding a commercial of this on here and it was really funny. "..problem is the food is trying to make hamburger outta you." ha
There is. And I will be reviewing it soon.
Holy shat this is two reviews in one day.
You'll be hard pressed to find a working original arcade machine now.
This was Data East's first and only attempt at making an arcade machine that loads games via audio cassette. which they soon dumped as tapes wore out and took too long to load.
Awesome
a Classic Game room HD Burger bet that tastes good lol
another good Show dude :) rated it 5stars again.
Same time when coins in Mario Bros. were square shaped. ;)
Mr Egg is Mr Surrender Flag and Mr Pickle is Mr Line and Mr Hotdogs are Mr Turds... Bad Port b/c it was the VCS and YES it plays VERY WELL!
cool review.
I'm gonna take a guess and say that the yellow line running around is MR. French Fry. :)
How is Burgertime anything like Dig Dug or Donkey Kong? It's a maze game, so it's more like (Ms.)Pac-Man or Lock 'n' Chase or something.
Love your reviews Mark.
MMMMMMM! Hamburgers, Yum!!!!!!! I haven't had much experience with this game, but it looks reasonable. I wish Atari 2600 games were available for the Wii on the Virtual console.
@GamerNinjaX yea but he wasnt refering to the total game itself just the graphics
This game isn't bad at all. Has all the elements of the arcade, with many different multiple screens and a pause feature. If they had made the egg more like an egg, and the stick green for the pickle, I'd think it was awesome
funnest game EVER!!!!! love this game i got the NES version and i love it..if i could ever find an arcade stand up of this it would be the coolest :)......and YES REUBEN TIME!!
that's true
The music is pretty good.
8 people didn't get it their way.
I used play the crap out of this game when I was 12. I bought my first gaming console of my own from a yard sale. It was a 2600 with many games like Burgertime and Pit Fall. Some of my greatest memories were playing those games. The worse memory was it came with E.T. Yah what a horrible game that was it gave me nightmares.
If you like burgertime, there's a kick ass version on the gameboy. I believe it only came out in Japan, so you may have a tough time finding it. I have said Japanese version, so if you have an information, hit me up with a message. ;)
Wow , I remember this from Intellivision and being disappointed in the graphics but this, this is like a step down from Duplo blocks from Legos except there was something that was a step down from duplo.
I played the NES version of Burger Time. The NES version of Burger Time is somewhat harder than Atari 2600 port.
i remember playing the NES version of this game on an arcade machine and i couldnt figure out what the hell i was supposed to do. there was also a galaga machine, so i stuck to that. still remember playing this one everyone now and then though :)
damn i`m craving burgers now.
I like this game for the Nintendo Entertainment System.
i loved the intelivision version for some reason. maybe cause its the first one i played. that pickle pissed me off. he was the smart one
Oh man I got the munchees for a ruben sandwhich now, with horseradish
This game always makes me hungry...
with all due respect to the Intellivision, I liked the Colecovision port a little better. It just looks more like the arcade version to me.
lol havent eaten in 10 hours now i want a buger i was hungrey during the entire review lol
This is actually a really good version of burgertime, even with the poor graphics of the egg and the closing doors. The game play is very faithful to the original and it works very well.
You should pick up the "data east" arcade collection for wii... Great games like Burger Time, Bad Dudes and Super Real Darwin. You'd get a kick out of darwin.
EVERYTHING!!!
Awsome! I have this atari game too! its alot of fun! If u want an arcade accurate version there is a hits disk for the playstation 1! u will get addicted to it! Ha Ha!!
It's ReubenTime!
I loved this game on my TI99
Colecovision version squished all these pickles off.
@XxJ0b3xX Asteroids and Missile Command were pretty good on the 2600, even if they weren't arcade perfect.
It's always Burgertime!
I'm hungry after watching the video now.
Yep, try the NES version if you want something more faithful to the arcade
Iam love eggs on top bugers
Wow, this is just sad to see, especially since the Coleco version looked 1,000,000,000,000.....times better than this crap.
I am glad I had a Coleco.....
This is also for the NES and naturally it looks better on it.
Wait, how in the FUDGE did CGR never play freakin' BURGERTIME in the arcades? That's a pretty big one to have never played by 2009.
There was time when Holographic games existed here in America, I saw one once but never played it. I imagine many people never even saw one in real life so he most likely never came across one or if he did didn't have time or the quarters on him.
It's 2:45 am and I want a hamburger with lettuce.
Nice but im def more of a phillycheesestake kinda guy.
Good review, classic game.
Not so much their fault...a game machine made in the late 1970's could only do so much, you know. :)
this game makes me hungry
Where is the arcade version? I have a bucket of of quarters next to me.
Hambuger helpers favorite game
Come on home brewers PLEASE make ROBOTRON 2684!
WELL i was like 9 when i played this game Now I am 35 ha ha so much memories come back to your fried brain.
omg i have that console^^
If you like this you really need to play the arcade version.
nice ;)
in nes looks awesome
you forgot Mr Pickle !
i was thinkin the same thing
reminds me of donkey kong
I don't get it, when you get caught by the food a pleasant song is played. It should be more of a Damn I got killed by a Hotdog song...know what i mean....
mattel were the ONLY reasons why atari got burger time
Where do u get the cool atari 2600? 0:08
you should play commodore 64 version it has different levels and its very fun :D
Agreed or burger time on PS1 midway greatest arcade hits collection 2.
Now I remember why I never bought this for the 2600 lol
the game that made millions of dollars in quarters?
most games on the 2600 looked about like this.
There's an early DOS version for the PC that's really playable and has much better graphics.
reubentime should have come out by now. quick, atari make a new game system!
@XxJ0b3xX all you talked about was the graphics. you need to look at everything else too to really judge a game.
you can play this on PS1, its way better on there. Even the Intellivison version is better then this one. Not a great arcade translation for the 2600.
but like he said
explain space invaders
that doesn't flicker
Like usual The Intellivision version was way better even better the the arcade version is some ways because it controlled better and was not anywhere near as aggravatingly hard.
review more genesis or snes games plz
You should review gears of war
wow..i just watched this vid in its entirety and read thru every comment posted on here...and i guess im the only damn person who knows this....but on the atari 2600 version of burger time...there is actually the ability to PAUSE the gameplay...YES, you can actually PAUSE an atari 2600 game. ....you can pause the game simply by toggling the difficulty switch during gameplay. ....how can classic game room review this game and either have no idea about this feature, or forgot to mention it? hmmmm
assuming pounder. is that you?
Its Burger Time Bitch
So is there anyway to die in this game?
Intellivision's is the best. Coleco second. Coleco went with the vertical route which was authentic to the arcade (you lose a lot of the screen), while Intelli turned it into a horizontal game. Sorry, this 2600 version sucks--typical M Network crap.
Terrible remakes like this one, Donkey Kong, and PacMan killed the Atari market (and the disastrous 5200 didn't help). However when Atari started out and was making original games like Warlords they were untouchable. But Colecovision arrived and was turning out much more faithful versions of arcade games and Atari couldn't compete.
And I really like these games and women. And I don't know more but the former boss said that He liked bisexuals. And that was not me.
Xbox 360 actually can browse the internet
I'm not sure about Atari but NES version of this sucks at gameplay - simply because of the controls are higly unoptimized
I wonder what's the reason Atari carts are inserted with artwork hidden away from players' eyes... what a stupid decision (well, Atari made a lot of them didn't they)
Mr. Egg and Mr. Hot Dog.
wtfisthisshit
