I don’t know why but Chuck E. Cheese gives off the vibe of a mob boss. I honestly like this Chuck E. Cheese better than the more modern versions, he seems more genuine like he really enjoys doing this than that generic personality he has now.

Yeah! While there is magic in talking animals, there's magic in robotics too, y'know? Realising it is people that made the things I love as a kid and that I can do that too is what drove me to my current career path.
Fun fact: Five Nights at Chuck E Cheese Rebooted makes a pretty clever and cool reference to these early animatronics. If you look, Jasper’s hand has fallen off in both the game and in this footage at 0:47
@@P51_mustang Click on the time stamp and rewind to see the scene before with Jasper. If you look at the hand he uses to play the strings, it looks like the hand he uses holding the banjo: bug and wrinkly. However when the time stamp hits, this hand is gone, and is instead a little stub meant to rotate the hand so it looks like he's strumming his instrument.
Five nights at Chuck E Cheese: Rebooted uses these designs of the animatronics which in my opinion was a very creative idea that makes it different from other Fnaf like games.
ruclips.net/video/JSZ6SJDCuvc/видео.html I found this while searching threw some websites that archive Chuck E. Cheese’s histrory I actually found new footage
Yeah he did. It was a very different time. You can see they even having a swinging Dixieland flag. Back in those days you could have a drunk bird, a smoking rat, foreign stereotypes, animated breasts, among other things on stage.
Something I notice about the kids in this video… their attention span is much longer. To see them sitting there, mesmerized at the animatronics and eating their pizza was something from the 80’s. Today, the kids couldn’t sit and look at anything for more than a few seconds without being bored and finding the next distraction - all thanks to the devices parents stick in front of the kids to appease them today.
@@calangojudeu4676I can agree that my generation can suck a lot, but you also sound like, “ ohh I’m gonna complain about the younger generation because I’m getting too old for this and things should be like how they used to be when things were better because they were worse blah blah blah kids can’t even figure out their own gender”😂
How did I know the comments were going to be more concerned with the piece of cloth than the genuine archived history of these animatronics? "Why is the rebel flag there?!?!", Newsflash: it wasn't controversial back then. There's your answer, plain and simple. There was a time where people saw that flag and 99% of them didn't bat an eye. Look at Nascar, Dukes of Hazard, and southern capital buildings for example...it was around. Wasn't until we entered this new age of racist-McCarthyism that this stuff started getting called out and snuffed out. By around 2030 we'll have moved on to the next thing to hunt down, history repeats itself whether we're right or wrong. Now shut up and enjoy the rare show of singing robots.

They should really bring back this version of Chuck E. Cheese show and the entire original restruants entirely they would get lots of business back and people would love Chuck E. Cheese again they were stupid for getting rid of the animatronics for dum dance floors and now a lot of there rest raunts are closed if they brung back this version of Chuck E. Cheese they would be very successful they should have the restaurant one side original and one side modern Chuck E. Cheese for people who like the new and old

I'm not sure what their name is, but I find that piano playing hippo really cool! It's really an advance from the portrait characters and is more chill.
Something i find strange is that in Chuck E. Cheese promo vids like “The history of Chuck E. Cheese’s “ They always skip the pizza time theater and showbiz pizza Like they were trynna hide something
the official chuck e cheese channel even made a history video, they showed showbiz pizza, but it didnt say anything about billy bob, infact, they used the chuck e replacement commercial instead of the original showbiz one
@@notpxpyt They didn't lmao, Showbiz wanted the rights of the RAE to keep operating it but Aaron declined, So to not waste the animatronics they had to convert them into the MMBB band because of copyright, if Aaron gave the rights then we would probably still have RAE operating. I think it should be obvious for you that it isn't stealing since is aaron's fault for not giving the RAE rights to Showbiz, They couldn't do anything else because of copyright, there wasn't a way for Showbiz to keep the RAE if they didn't had the rights.

The Shelf was the original animation format used at Pizza Time Theatre. It is commonly referred to as the "Portrait Show", as the animatronic characters were situated along the wall, hanging out of large 4-foot tall gilt portrait frames. It is believed to be called the Shelf, because the portraits are usually located along a decorated shelf which ran between the characters (also with the introduction of the Balcony Stage, it became important to distinguish this original set-up from the updated show which included a proper stage). The animatronic characters used in this show are considered to be "first generation" and were quite different both mechanically and in appearance than the animatronics that followed. It is important to note that the Shelf show really didn’t incorporate a true "stage" set-up, however, as it evolved over the early years, it moved closer to grouping the characters together into a consolidated show. The Stage / Features The original layout from the first Pizza Time Theatre (Winchester Blvd, San Jose, CA) had the portraits spread out around the main theatre in a 360-degree show. Pasqually was placed above the kitchen and would pop out from behind a set of doors and could call out the orders, Jasper was placed on the wall to the left of him, Crusty and Chuck E, were along the back wall, the special guest and applause board were placed on the wall to the right of Pasqually. The Warblettes sat on an elevated platform which hung from the ceiling (their curtains would raise up to reveal them). By the time the second store opened (Kooser Rd, San Jose, CA) the portraits were grouped closer together and placed along two adjacent walls. Crusty was replaced by Mr. Munch (who was placed behind a set of doors similar to Pasqually), and the Warblettes were replaced by the Mopsey Sisters - at least temporarily. Technical Information Due to the scarcity of documentation from the early years of Pizza Time Theatre, we don't know a great deal about the technical operation of the Shelf. But based on the accounts of former employees, and what we’ve been able to figure out from early reels, we do have some knowledge of the show mechanics. The show was very similar to the operation of the Balcony Stage - the show is animated by pneumatic valve banks which are controlled by means of 2-track synchronized audio. One track carries the show audio (mono), while the other carries the data signals. The signals used to animate the Shelf characters are the same used to control the Balcony Stage characters - several showtapes made during the transitional period were labeled for use on both "Stage + Shelf". There are a few points where the show operation differed. The Cyberamics rack used to control the Balcony Stage was most likely created specifically for the Balcony. It was a consolidation of the several systems needed to run the original Shelf setup. According to one of Pizza Time’s first employees, the Shelf characters each had a mini computer onboard (which used either an Intel 8080 or MOS Technology 6502). This made servicing them a hassle, as the employees either had to work on the animatronics from the front, or in some cases they crawled through the soffit to get to the electronics behind the characters. It should be noted that earliest show reels are said to have contained the entire show and background audio (on the same reel). So the original system design might have had some significant differences from the later Cyberamics system. History / Information The Shelf was quite an interesting design, and was probably more interactive than most of the later stage incarnations when you consider it was originally intended to be a 360-degree entertainment experience. Plus the idea of portraits coming to life was a neat concept in-and-of-itself. The first generation characters were more realistic in appearance, being sculpted out of latex and fur - as opposed to the cloth material used later down the line. Although they suffered from very limited animation there were still some neat surprises, such as Chuck E’s moving derby, that have not been seen since. Although the Shelf was discontinued after the first few years of Pizza Time Theatre, it was probably more the result of a very innovative Pizza Time, rather than the shortcomings of the Shelf show. In its few short years, the Shelf became the launching platform for many different characters and guest stars. By 1981 the Shelf was all but dead - the Harmony I showtape was the first tape to discontinue programming certain signals needed for the Shelf operation (such as Munch's and Pasqually's doors). But despite the early discontinuation, there is documented proof of the Shelf lasting as late as 1991 (albeit with second generation characters). The information posted on this page is the culmination of what is known about this show. Thanks to Dbenjami for much of the information. If you happen to have any further information on the Shelf - either documents, photos, or videos to share please contact us!
Fact that he hides behind doors and Works at a kitchen The same way Munch would, I think why Munch hides behind doors is because he Sneaks into Pasquallys Kitchen Without anyone seeing
This video was released a few years ago by Chuck E. Cheese's as part of an anniversary celebration, right? If I recall correctly, before they released this, any video footage of the portrait animatronics was lost media.
Not gonna lie. If you had told me that there was a chuck e cheese show where the characters stuck out of walls next to the confederate flag I would not have believed you.
Jasper J Jowls my favourite animatronic! There is something in it that gives away the American hinterland.Jasper from pizza time theatre l like more than modern
I don’t see why people get so mad about the confederate flag being in this video… well, I do, but I personally don’t mind it being there. It fits jaspers character and looks like it fits with the other flags hanging up
Here's what Logan McKay never said to me, "just so to warn you that: when the boys & girls grow up to be men and women, it's so easy to get robbed of your innocence." Logan didn't also say, "it's already the guilt ridden years for all of us oh yeah oh no."

Uh, The Kooser Jasper Had no eyebrows
Not gonna lie. If you had told me that there was a chuck e cheese show where the characters stuck out of walls next to the confederate flag I would not have believed you.
They look so small on the video but we’re probably huge like the modern cyberamics
I prefer country bear jamboree than the PTT.
I especially liked "Big-Al"
I knew that there secrets with Chuck E. Cheese that kids don’t know
Liek ummm maybe the death of 5 employees hmmmm my guns hmmmmmmmmmmmmm fnaf

That didn't happen
Guys Piggy isn't referring to the kids hoax,it is referring to a shooting that happened in 1993 at Chuck e cheese where some employees were shot
Sad how kids won’t grow up with this stuff, They grow up with a ipad in front of their face
And what are you typing this on?

Thank you finally some one gets it
Jasper J Jowls my favourite animatronic!
There is something in it that gives away the American hinterland.Jasper from pizza time theatre l like more than modern

0:06 I know they are part of the Great Movie Ride
I like the song and chuck
0:16 This kid always looks like. What in the hell
I don’t see why people get so mad about the confederate flag being in this video… well, I do, but I personally don’t mind it being there. It fits jaspers character and looks like it fits with the other flags hanging up
In the second one you can see jasper is missing one of his hands
Maybe He was strumming to fast then it flew off
Who ever wonders if the first ever Chuck E. Cheese is still open and I have the answer. No sadly
Ya everyone says tully was the first store even it wasn't
The first one was on Winchester Bvld, in San Jose California.
0:36 my boy jasper got the vocals
My mom was in that video 💀💀
What
Oh the hippo animatronic?
Here's what Logan McKay never said to me, "just so to warn you that: when the boys & girls grow up to be men and women, it's so easy to get robbed of your innocence." Logan didn't also say, "it's already the guilt ridden years for all of us oh yeah oh no."
this looks very cool
Why does it show pasqually while jasper sings?
Is this how schizophrenia feels?
Burn mr munch and being back crusty:D
Ikr!
or just have both charecters
is very cool
Confederate flags flying in chuck e cheese is so cursed
these were the 70's, had a different meaning at this time, it represented texas infact
Crusty was big c right handman
