      It's funny you mention that. I've been trying to capture Atari 2600 game footage and on playback I could never figure out why you couldn't see some of the images! Haha I know that wasn't the intent of this video, but thanks! Great job on the video like always by the way haha.

      Well, if an on/off blinking cycle is 2 frames, then halving the framerate means you either see nothing or just a solid sprite.

      Reminds me that my old Mario Bros videos are missing some sprite animation because this site cropped everything to 30 fps back then.

    I don't know if I speak for everyone, but I enjoy these episodes very much, the Atari era and all references like the Kool Aid stuff take me back to the 80's and I love the ride very much. I love that era of my life. Thanks Chris for the hard work, many things have changed with the times and many people have moved on to other things, but you keep the machinery going, even if it's at a slower pace for obvious reasons.

    These mail-in games were/are so corny, yet there is still a certain charm to them. Also, I remember the Kool-Aid Man Atari game from when you reviewed it back in 2010. Seeing it again in this video brought back memories of that review. Anyway, it was neat to see you play all of these weird and bizarre games, and, I agree, Gauntlet DOES look like an overhead version of Pitfall. This was another very fun review. Looking forward to more in the future!

  • @pepijn23
    @pepijn23 16 дней назад +1

    I hear some reviewers and game historians say that this game was also a big contributor to the videogame crash of 83, but I feel like that's largely over exaggerated as there were many other issues.
    It's not like this game was sold at retail sitting next to games such as E.T., Pacman, Defender, StarMaster or any Imagic titles. As you said this game was sold through the mail if you bought Chuck Wagon products.
    What is known is that the product was rushed even faster than E.T. and unfortunately flopped.
    The developer Mike Schwartz said he was contracted to do it within a week by order of Purina and Spectravision. He put the whole game together in about 3 days and used the same code, graphics, and sound effects as the game Artillery duel. He has said that he dislikes the game as well.
    Also like I said, the promotion was a flop, and any unsold copies were scrapped a few months later.
