    You kept crediting me for photos from that video from the 90s, I didn't upload that... the picture of Helen has lil' me in there, as well as the one you couldn't see Chuck that much in.
    Another thing to note is Chuck got rid of the tux in 2005 or 2006, not 2010.
    Someone stole Chuck's Eyebrows sometime in the mid-late 2010s, but the eyebrows you see on the Cyber in Albmarle are most likely Pasqually's since he doesn't have any.
    Albmarle got rid of the Tux before Pineville did, so somewhere around 2004; I remember going once during that time.

      Just checked the video and you’re correct! That’s my mistake, the Kellar Family Videos channel had the 90’s footage, while you had the 2000’s photos. I’ve credited you properly in the description though I’ve pinned this comment so people will see this. Also, the other smaller clarifications are appreciated, thank you.
      Edit: I've tried fixing things by adding cards with credits and links to their respective videos, but if you want me to take the video down and fix things that way I can do that as well. I'd worked longer that day and was trying to get the video done, but obviously I looked over some mistakes while doing so. I think I'll also try to ask the community about some things next time as well so I can get more accurate information, thanks again for pointing these things out.

    The roadside stage location was my childhood location and I still have many memories of it despite the downgrade of quality in recent years. Also a year ago I moved pretty close to the 3 stage and it was amazing, it truly felt nice to see a location thriving like it once was back in the early 2010’s and I’m glad to hear that CEC will be preserving it for generations to come as with that Showbiz can also live forever.

    Honestly love what this guys got going for Pineville. I have a sorta similar situation to what you had. I just now got into CEC in September, and Pineville is the closest location with bots (4 hours 😭) and I wanna visit and I might ask my parents if thats fine. I hope the tech man keeps staying here and changing Pineville for the better. Great video, nonetheless 👏👏

    I have sad news, albemarle’s road stage has been removed on June 2 2024. There are no more road stages in America. Mississauga’s road stage is now the only existing road stage. guys if you are reading this, go see Mississauga’s road stage while you still can! (P.S. It’s currently in a state of disrepair)

    Nice history video, also in July 14 2023 the animatronics on albermarle rd stopped being on random mode and finally starts working/performing again, and sometime in August 2023 pasqually’s mustache had been fixed and isn’t upside down anymore, (but he still kinda looks weird tbh) also the date for albermarle rd to get 2.0 is now gonna be on February 2024

    • @ItzaRob
      @ItzaRob  Год назад +3

      This location is actually gonna try to get 2.0? That's kinda funny honestly considering how empty it often is in there, I expected it to end up closing instead since there's already another location in Charlotte (I wouldn't want it to because of the Road Stage but if it's not getting business then it can't really continue to stay open).

      No 2.0 Has Happened Yet Happened To Albermarle RD's CEC, Still Exists Currently, As I Went There, They Are Still Onstage, So The 2.0 Has Been Pushed Back, To My Guess, I'm Not Sure When It Is Planned, But Hopefully Not Soon.. ( Also They Havent Closed, And The Pizzeria Was Filled With People When We Went.

      Yep! I’ll be making an update video to this history video soon, it’s my first ever history video so it needs an update badly. I’m going to try and wait and see when the grand reopening is, or at least when they remodel. I hear they’re remodeling sometime in June, so we’ll have to see how that goes and get the video made from there.

      ​​​@@ItzaRobalso will you make a history of the columbia sc location since they got 2.0 for a dumb reason because of a compressor broken sadly it was the location i went to back then and it had the 3 stage animatronics and all im hoping the nc location can also count as a sc location since the columbia sc location is pretty much dead (not fully) but without the robots
      And also (as chucky from the syfy and USA series chucky from episode 7 of season 1 would say but in this context of awesome news)
      "CEC entertainment thank you! Finally! You have no idea how hard its been getting your corporate company to step the heck up and make the right choice"
      and by that i mean having Pineville NC be the next retro store and of course the other 2 locations as well

    • @ItzaRob
      @ItzaRob  Год назад +2

      The photo was found from a group of photos from the Pineville location. You could be right but again, there's no confirmation without knowing who took it and where they say it was taken. I did just take a look at Greensboro's exterior and it definitely looks like it could be from that location but again, without confirmation there's no certainty.
      Pineville Photos: www.showbizpizza.com/photos/spp/nc_charlotte/index.html
      Edit: I also found a user named matturban9103 who claims that he took most of those 80's Pineville photos while his brother took a couple. He says the van picture is in the strip mall lot in Charlotte. It's the top comment on this video: ruclips.net/video/4KsZjxRuh74/видео.html
      Again, I'm not saying you're for sure wrong, it just seems strange to me that this person who claimed to take these photos would claim a photo that wasn't from that location when they say it was.

      This video is outdated. I’ve made an updated version of this video with proper info. To answer your question, no, they did not. They CUed in 1991, but did not rebrand to “Chuck E. Cheese’s Pizza” until 1993.

    • @ItzaRob
      @ItzaRob  Год назад +1

      They removed the TV on the stage from this location, I don't know if that has anything to do with how they receive programming but it's possible without that TV they couldn't perform. This Road Stage location happened to be one with a lower budget from what I've heard, so that definitely could be a part of why they decided to do that/why they don't perform.
