I started watching cinemassacre in 2012. These last few years I've been watching a lot less. I'll be honest. Hearing Mike leaving hurt me in my soul. Good luck man, I'll continue to follow you and your work
Mikes exit from Cinemassacre is shocking to me. Mike always seemed like the secret heart and soul of that operation, with James being the driving creative force and all that.
Heard you were leaving cinnemassacre hope your further adventures in streaming go very well. You and James friendship always seemed very genuine in the videos thanks both of you for making 2020 better on RUclips. Keep up the good work.
@@mikematei I’m always gonna watch ur streams and support you bro, your a real gamer … a real retro gamer aswell and that is rare , keep up the awesome content 👾👾👾👾💙
Retail reviews was the best show on cinemassacre for the last few years, are you going to produce any content like that now that you've left the channel?
My first console. The Nes was already out but my family was too poor to buy one, so they bought this console. Nevertheless im still glad this was my first console.
This and Missile Command were my first Atari 2600 games, if not the first video games I played ever. I think the next big memory was seeing someone play Megaman 2 and Legendary Wings on a Nintendo. Thanks again for all the content Mike.
Funny story about Kaboom. My brother used to be amazing at the game. He would practice in order to try out for the contest Activision ran at the time. One time our little cousin was over watching him play. He was doing so good he actually made over 10,000 points. It was going so fast,and our cousin laughed so hard he actually wet himself. It's a super challenging game that still holds up today.
You can't leave Cinemasscre. The channel will be dead without you. From all the years watching, you're pretty much cinemasscre from watching all your streams. I realize that throughout the years. Hope you come back
@@mikematei Wish it was that simple. You were the reason AVGN even became known in the first place. James just brushing off the news in a 2021 update video as his 4th topic like nothing happened is a bit suspect. You'd think he'd have a bit more respect towards your friendship to at least make one final video to bring this to a real closure. Cinemassacre's time has definitely run its course and it's a really sour way to end it.
@@NicoEvaluates I said something just like that on their latest video, asking why Mike didn't get a send-off since he's the reason the channel exists. They banned me.
Just a little of the ol' FYI, E.T. really isn't the worst game ever made. In fact, it's nowhere close to the worst game. In fact, when I was a kid I really enjoyed the game...It wasn't until around 2005'ish, some 20+ years after the game was released, did I learn that it was supposedly the worst game of all time.
E.T was most definately the worst game ever made, i mean come on it was so bad that thousands of cartridges were rounded up sealed in a sack and then thrown in a hole in the Nevada desert and had concrete poured over it true story 😂😂😂
I don't know if Mike will read this or even care, but you are an OG, man. Been a fan for years, and now that you'll stream full time I think it'd be cool to maybe try and bring up the whole art angle to it every once in a while, see if it work (always loved your style, packed a strong 70s underground comics feel to it). If there's something I see common in a lot of the big streamers that don't focus on one game only is they try to have a lot of variety, and you 100% have the energy and personality to become a household streamer if you polished the presentation a bit and spiced it up. This is only my 2 cents as a supporter, hoping for the best. Merry Christmas, Mf!
Atari 2600 games are in control of how many scanlines get displayed per frame. Some games deviate pretty far from "normal" NTSC. They worked on old TVs but modern video equipment has trouble syncing to those games. Apparently Jungle Hunt is one of those games. Similar problem with Quadrun - it was apparently breaking sync when it played voice, because rendering the display on 2600 takes too much CPU time to do both.
Mike, that "monkey" is actually a mountain lion and his name is Quickclaw. That other person you found is actually a girl named Rhonda and she is Pitfall Harry's daughter. BEFORE you grab Quickclaw, you need to go right one screen and you will be behind that rat that was forcing you back into the water at the start of the game. Because you are behind him now you can grab him for big points (I'm not sure but I think it's 15,000). The reason the game didn't end when you grabbed Quickclaw is because you missed the Raj Diamond. The game kept going because you missed the diamond. To get it, it's either the first open path or second open path to the left below Rhonda. Go to the left one screen then take a running jump off the edge of the ledge. The next part just let gravity and video game physics take over, if you jumped off of the correct ledge, you should bounce off the boulders on the left side of the screen, fall across the screen and bounce off the boulders on the right side of the screen, fall across the screen again to the left and land on a ledge, go one screen to the left and that is where the Raj Diamond is. You will get a brief ending if you get Rhonda, the Raj Diamond, and Quickclaw. The rat is optional.
I love how Mike's ideal super-power ( 19:00 ) would be to have gecko-eyes (one eye looking up and one eye looking down), specifically to be able to play Kaboom more effectively.
I never noticed before but for some reason in the Atari 2600 version of Pacman, when you eat a pallet while facing the left side the pallet disappears before Pacman touches it, however if you’re facing the right side the pallet overlaps Pacman’s sprite before disappearing 🤔
2600 Space Invaders is one of the greatest ports of all time, IMO. The programmer worked cleverly around system limitations - nobody at Atari expected it to be that good. Up to that point Atari was struggling. The 2600 had been out for 2 years but they were still losing money. Space Invaders was the killer game that made everybody want a 2600, and made Atari into a phenomenon. The programmer of that game got paid something like $30K. After Atari became a money printing machine, they bought the rights to Pac-Man. The programmer who got that task delivered a rudimentary effort with terrible color and flicker problems. It was a highly visible game that disappointed everybody who saw it, painting the 2600 as obsolete and souring public interest in the system. By this time Atari was paying royalties, so the Pac-Man programmer got over $1M in royalties for a game that only sold because of it's title.
Was this an emulator or on the 2600 itself. I just did a live stream from the 2600 itself last night. Just curious. The one I played on was from 1982. Cpp tech
Most copies of Demon Attack for Atari 2600 are glitched and crash after you beat the 84th set of enemies, apparently a later revision fixed that bug but idk how you'd tell if you're playing a glitched copy or not aside from getting to level 85.
Actually what's pretty funny is in the 3rd Hyperdimension Neptunia game the main bad guy is called Tari. It's mad because it was mostly forgotten about and replaced by the newer,more powerful "characters". It's clever and funny when you find it out.
Nintendo's still making consoles actually. And Sega, sort of (there was the Genesis Mini in 2019, and the Genesis never went away in Brazil). Atari consoles are extremely dead though. Also, right now there's a company that wants to make a new Intellivision console.
Now we need an Intellivision stream... The Intellivsion II was the first console I owned as a kid, my step uncle gave me his for my birthday to see how I would take care of it and I got an NES for Christmas later that year. From time to time I'll pull it out to play Burger Time....
I remember playing good ol' Demon Attack on Intellivision. Have you streamed this recently or plan on doing so in the near future? That was my first family game system.
Mike, switch to an Atari joystick modified with tactile microswitches instead of the stock dome switches and it will stop hurting your hands! You don't have to press nearly as hard for a direction. The one I made for myself requires no more force than with my thumb and forefinger to move around.
Dragon Fire rulez I've played it a lot at my grandpa's atari 2600 bootleg with 128 games builded in. I still have that console and play it! It also had oink!, outlaw and a lot of cool games
Do a Raph only run in TMNT, but the twist is you have to hold the controller upside down. Actually try to beat any NES game holding the controller upside down.
Funny Mike. I was just fooling around with my collection of 2600 stuff last week. Have about 100 games,some from when I was a kid that shockingly still work. We have a room set up for retro stuff,from the Odyssey 2 to the PS1,and I'll have my 10 year old niece and 15 year old cousin play some of them just so they can see the history of games. Most Activision and Imagic games are great but Chopper Command and Atlantis are some of my favorites. And Pac Man is just a pizza with a piece missing. Lol.
It's too bad I missed out on this stream...I don't want to brag too much (but obviously I'm about to...), but I consider myself a real expert on the Atari 2600. I know stuff about it, and what not. I just purchased/received a copy of Galagon (Galaga) for the 2600 from the atariage website. I posted a review of the game...You can check it out (it's only about 90 seconds long); if you don't want to waste 90 seconds of your life I'll save you the hassle...The game is fucking amazing! The developer responsible, Champ Games, has ported several classic arcade games to the console, and their work is 2nd to none...They are in a class of their own. They are releasing a physical version of their port of Robotron 2084 (titled Robot Wars) for the 2600 early 2021, I believe. Check out the gameplay videos...it has to be seen to be believed. I've seen the videos, and I still can't believe how good it looks. Champ Games. Check 'em out!
The person who asked about programming for the Atari 2600...there are a lot of books, guides, manuals and webpages out there that can help you learn how to program for the console...Just a heads up, though...I don't know the 1st thing about programming, but I've heard the 2600 is notoriously difficult to program for. The learning curve is extreme.
@@mikematei A Colecovision stream would be interesting as well. Just make sure you have a Super Action Controller for certain games like Front Line or Rocky. Lol.
@@chid255 That was a great game. Also War Room was fun and Fortune Builder might be the first Sim City type game made. It really did have some good games.
Pac-Man is a maze arcade game developed and released by Namco in 1980. The original Japanese title of Puck Man was changed to Pac-Man for international releases as a preventative measure against defacement of the arcade machines by changing the P to an F. Outside Japan, the game was published by Midway Games as part of its licensing agreement with Namco America. The player controls Pac-Man, who must eat all the dots inside an enclosed maze while avoiding four colored ghosts. Eating large flashing dots called "energizers" causes the ghosts to turn blue, allowing Pac-Man to eat them for bonus points. The development of the game began in early 1979, directed by Toru Iwatani with a nine-man team. Iwatani wanted to create a game that could appeal to women as well as men, because most video games of the time had themes of war or sports. Although the inspiration for the Pac-Man character was, reportedly, the image of a pizza with a slice removed, Iwatani has said he also rounded out the Japanese character for mouth, kuchi (Japanese: 口). The in-game characters were made to be cute and colorful to appeal to younger players. The original Japanese title of Puckman was derived from the titular character's hockey-puck shape. Pac-Man was a widespread critical and commercial success, and it has an enduring commercial and cultural legacy. The game is considered important and influential, and it is commonly listed as one of the greatest video games of all time. The success of the game led to several sequels, merchandise, and two television series, as well as a hit single by Buckner and Garcia. The Pac-Man video game franchise remains one of the highest-grossing and best-selling game series of all time, generating more than $14 billion in revenue (as of 2016) and $43 million in sales combined. The character of Pac-Man is the mascot and flagship icon of Bandai Namco Entertainment and has the highest brand awareness of any video game character in North America.
Thanks for doing this stream 2nd generation gaming is usually too primitive for me but you warmed me up a bit. and I legit LOLed to you complimenting the pacman "music" 🤣🤣🤣
Heh, I notice the comments about you "leaving" cinemassacre. AVGN was totally cool to me; didn't even know about any of it during its prime... But things tend to lose its charm over time and people move on to what will make them happier. Like playing games and streaming. ❤
hey Mike, have you heard of a game called Safety First? it's on Switch and PC and it's pretty hilarious. Also to clean the connectors on my cartridges i use a qtip with contact cleaner fluid, works pretty good.
Can you please do SuperMan for PS1 next? Someone released the 2000 Prototype and it looks almost finished. Just asking but I would like to see you do a video on it.
Mike, you should play Atari 2600 homebrews. If you can, check out Pac-Man 8K (or even Pac-Man 4K), they're souped up, much more accurate versions of that game. EDIT: It's not the version that's simply a hack of Ms. Packman.
I started watching cinemassacre in 2012. These last few years I've been watching a lot less. I'll be honest. Hearing Mike leaving hurt me in my soul. Good luck man, I'll continue to follow you and your work

Mike, that "monkey" is actually a mountain lion and his name is Quickclaw. That other person you found is actually a girl named Rhonda and she is Pitfall Harry's daughter. BEFORE you grab Quickclaw, you need to go right one screen and you will be behind that rat that was forcing you back into the water at the start of the game. Because you are behind him now you can grab him for big points (I'm not sure but I think it's 15,000). The reason the game didn't end when you grabbed Quickclaw is because you missed the Raj Diamond. The game kept going because you missed the diamond. To get it, it's either the first open path or second open path to the left below Rhonda. Go to the left one screen then take a running jump off the edge of the ledge. The next part just let gravity and video game physics take over, if you jumped off of the correct ledge, you should bounce off the boulders on the left side of the screen, fall across the screen and bounce off the boulders on the right side of the screen, fall across the screen again to the left and land on a ledge, go one screen to the left and that is where the Raj Diamond is. You will get a brief ending if you get Rhonda, the Raj Diamond, and Quickclaw. The rat is optional.

Although the inspiration for the Pac-Man character was, reportedly, the image of a pizza with a slice removed, Iwatani has said he also rounded out the Japanese character for mouth, kuchi (Japanese: 口). The in-game characters were made to be cute and colorful to appeal to younger players. The original Japanese title of Puckman was derived from the titular character's hockey-puck shape.
Pac-Man was a widespread critical and commercial success, and it has an enduring commercial and cultural legacy. The game is considered important and influential, and it is commonly listed as one of the greatest video games of all time. The success of the game led to several sequels, merchandise, and two television series, as well as a hit single by Buckner and Garcia. The Pac-Man video game franchise remains one of the highest-grossing and best-selling game series of all time, generating more than $14 billion in revenue (as of 2016) and $43 million in sales combined. The character of Pac-Man is the mascot and flagship icon of Bandai Namco Entertainment and has the highest brand awareness of any video game character in North America.
Mike really needs to try eat the combo more often.

Thanks for doing this stream
2nd generation gaming is usually too primitive for me but you warmed me up a bit.
and I legit LOLed to you complimenting the pacman "music" 🤣🤣🤣
Heh, I notice the comments about you "leaving" cinemassacre. AVGN was totally cool to me; didn't even know about any of it during its prime... But things tend to lose its charm over time and people move on to what will make them happier. Like playing games and streaming. ❤
hey Mike, have you heard of a game called Safety First? it's on Switch and PC and it's pretty hilarious. Also to clean the connectors on my cartridges i use a qtip with contact cleaner fluid, works pretty good.
That’s my all time favorite videos from you Atari 2600 I really like the 5200 games too👌

We are Pac-Man and Pac-Man is us. Pac-Man is my father, my mother, my brother, my friend.

Can you please do SuperMan for PS1 next?
Someone released the 2000 Prototype and it looks almost finished.
Just asking but I would like to see you do a video on it.
Mike, you should play Atari 2600 homebrews. If you can, check out Pac-Man 8K (or even Pac-Man 4K), they're souped up, much more accurate versions of that game.
EDIT: It's not the version that's simply a hack of Ms. Packman.
Mike is a Gangsta
The real question is how much more black could the album cover be? The answer is none. None more black.
Pac-Man is a Pac Person, it say so on his Wikipedia page.
