I remember I used to watch lodge net on tv in the la Quinta hotel in San Angelo TX when I was a little toddler kid which brings back my childhood memories seeing this oh my gosh I really miss Lodgenet
I’ve been thinking about Lodgenet over the past few days. A few hotels I stayed at had these. Dad would let us have a “family game night” with the lodgenet, but it would only be one night and he would limit the time to avoid further charge. It was still fun, and it was so funny watching dad try the GameCube (we had a Wii but not a GameCube.) Two of my great wolf lodge visits (February 2010 and 2011) and a few other times we had lodgenet nights. Unfortunately my dad passed in February 2021 right after my 18th birthday. So lodgenet, thank you so much for trip memories. I haven’t seen one since 2013.
List of trips with lodgenet nights: -Labor Day weekend 2008 Hershey Park Trip (Hilton Garden Inn) -Poconos Great Wolf Lodge trips (February 2010 and February 2011) -Boston Trip (July 2011- Marriott Grand Wharf) -Washington DC trip (April 2013, Grand Hyatt) -Grandmothers funeral (May 2013, Courtyard by Marriott, Wallingford CT. Last time I ever saw and played on a lodgenet.)
i rented from lodgenet once in the 90s and it said unlimited gameplay for 1 hour then they tried to charge me for each game I played I said i wouldnt pay for that I did not even use my whole hour we complained to the hotel and they lowered it to the original price.
Before I could get a Nintendo 64 NSO pad for my Switch, I played Kirby 64 with an SNES NSO pad (if docked) or with an NES NSO pad attached to the left half of my Switch (if in handheld mode), the latter is how I sometimes play Sonic Superstars!
I really wish I could find one of these in modern day. I would do everything I could to archive the experience. It was always so cool to find one when we were traveling 20 years ago
I've always wondered if there are any hotels left that sill use Lodgenet. I'm guessing the answer might be no, but I wish there was a way to know for sure. We went on a trip from coast to coast (driving) in 2018 or so and I didn't see a single one, and we stayed at a lot of hotels.
You could probably count the amount left on one hand. There honestly might be some cheap out of the way motel that hasn’t bothered to upgrade but most hotels by now have long since upgraded
I haven’t seen one in 10 years. Last time I ever saw one was at the courtyard Marriott in Wallingford Connecticut when I was at my grandmothers funeral
In early 2013, LodgeNet began to discontinue their gaming service due to aging equipment and declining usage. The servers that were used to power their gaming service would gradually shut down over the next five years with Sonifi continuing limited technical support until the last servers permanently shut down in December 2018, making the gaming functions on the controllers inoperable.
This announcement really bothered me at first, but I wish I would play these nostalgic N64 games. I think I heard about it at the Embassy Suites Hotel in Orlando back in c. 2006 (I believe)?? I can’t remember.
this music also used in the Intel P3 vs P4 presentation video and used at the underrated hungarian channel (Budapest TV), were defunct in 2010. If i identify this music with AHA Music i get a chinese fariytale-telling record and also using the same music.
The LodgeNet platform in hotels is very rare nowadays.
I really miss Lodgenet, this video was massively nostalgic.

@@stpworld oh wow
LodgeNet Music, so I can find it
@@alexaltamura1724 I actually have the same question as you, I was wondering where I can find the music. But if I find it before you I’ll let you know
This reminds me of staying at the Skyline Hotel, in Manhattan, NYC, in 2001.
This service is how I played Mario Party 3 and Kirby 64 for the first time as a kid, way back in like 2001-2002. Good memories.

More footage is always great thank you!
I don't have any more, but I'm glad you liked this video!

The hottest N64 games are here🤣🤣
lodgenet went out of business in 2013, which is why that was the last time anyone saw these in hotels
I remember playing Mario Kart 64 on with what I called "N64 LaQuinta controller"
If I ever visit Eagan Minnesota (God Know When LOL) imma stay at that place

Ever since I saw Mario in the thumbnail, I knew I had to click on this video.
What happened to America
After beating it to some porn, the rest of the night was Mario Kart!
Lol!
Love it!
it was awesome
What was the original channel that posted this
0:17 can anyone identify the song. I have been trying to find it for years.
this music also used in the Intel P3 vs P4 presentation video and used at the underrated hungarian channel (Budapest TV), were defunct in 2010. If i identify this music with AHA Music i get a chinese fariytale-telling record and also using the same music.
@@davidhalasz1974 I found it on a dvd which was a compilation of trains with added commentary and the exact music was used for the intro.
One of the songs:
Title: Architect
Artist: FirstCom
Album: Acoustics (FC-U2)
@@CameronFedewa this available on APM music? :O
