Vs. The Goonies!!!! Wow, what an AWESOME find Joe!!! I remember seeing it on Tabletop once or twice, but I'd totally buy the full size cabinet... If I only had an arcade room!!
That is one of my dream arcade cabinets. I only got to play it a few times and it lead me and my dad to try and find the game for the NES. For years we would ask every place that sold NES cartridges if they had the game or could order it. Of course the answer was always no. One managed to sell us Goonies 2 which turned out to be a disappointment. It wasn't until years later that a buddy at work gave me a CDR filled with roms and an emulator that I got to play it again. That sent me searching for a reason why I couldn't find it when I was a kid. It was that search that lead me to finding out it only got a home release in Japan on the famicom. So many good memories centered around that arcade cabinet and hunting for that game.
There was one of these in the M&W Supermarket in Boise Idaho around 1987. I could play the entire game on 1 quarter. I would wake up early so I could beat it before going to Junior High.
This version of The Goonies by Konami was a Japan-exclusive for the Famicom. According to professional Donkey Kong players, the red cabinet version was harder than the blue.
It mite be the other way around on the DK cabs. The reds had a 4 stack board that had a glitch that when you are at the very top of a ladder. A barrel would not come down on you. When they made the blue cabs, they made the PCB into a 2 stack board. And also eliminated the ladder glitch. I know that because of that glitch. When in a competition or attempting a record. The PCB has to be a 2 stack. The 4 stack boards are pretty rare now.
I played this as a kid at a hotel in Panama City Beach on vacation every year. I had no idea that it was on Famicom. I just bought a copy on eBay, and I look forward to playing it again after all these years. Thanks for the memories.
I never saw The Goonies arcade! This explains why Nintendo release Goonies 2 for the NES though! I did play The Goonies game on my Atari 800 XL and it was a great game!
I saw this in the wild twice (in the 80's) one in a Food4Less store (which was like this cab) the other was in the Aladdin's Castle in Fort Smith, AR in the more traditional (light blue) Vs. 2 in 1 corner cabinet. To be honest many Vs. arcades used this style of cabinet in my neck of the woods due to a lot of locations couldn't accommodate the 2 in 1 version. In fact one of the Walmarts in my town had a R-Type in the same cabinet it had the Vs controllers with the R-Type Marquee and the same side art as this Goonies cab. It was at that Walmart in 89 until it shut down in the mid 90's (5-6 years) due to a Supercenter opening down the road. My new local Arcade got a hold of a Red Tent sit down cab, and I would love to see them get a hold of The Goonies board. Also other than the Red Tent sit down version I have never seen the upright version in red. it's either a kit, blue unisysten (which include even rarer Vs games like Slalom and Castlevainia) or the Blue L shape 2 in 1 in. The funniest 2 in 1 cab I saw though was in the Little Rock Job Corp were it was converted into a Toki (Fabtek) and Crime Fighters (Konami).
Thanks for sharing Ron. I love The Goonies and had no idea there was an arcade. It looks pretty fun to play. Also, loved the line ,'I did the karate on him'!
Song is Goonies R Good Enough. Music video is a who's who of late 1980's WWE wrestlers including Captain Lou, Nikoli Volkov (sorry about the spelling), Iron Sheik and others.
You can always import the Famicom version of this game to play it on an NES. The song playing in an 8-Bit Version of “The Goonies ‘R’ Good Enough” aka The Theme of the Movie. The Character you are talking about is called “Chunk” because he’s overweight (you know ‘80’s humor when body shaming was considered acceptable to do to people because they are overweight). The Fratellis are the gang with Mamma, Jake, Francis and Sloth (who is chained up in the basement).
Thank you, I was cringing at the lack of knowledge and am glad you set things right before I had to. I'm clearly *_too_* passionate about the movie and need to lighten up a little😅
I remember playing the goonies arcade game while waiting to watch the movie as it just hit the dollar theaters. Same thing with the 1990 TMNT movie, they had a TMNT 4 player cab. Was a nice touch.
@@LyonsArcade I remember all the other kids talking about playing the TMNT cab before I even seen it. The first time I saw Ninja Gaiden was next to the Shinobi cab at the laundromat. Glad you’re such a noble caretaker of these kinda machines. Both gaming history and good memories. I love your work/YT channel, keep up the good work!
If I remember correctly there was one of these at one of the South of the Border Gamerooms. Riverdale Amusements had lots of cool games and pinball machines at SOTB
I seem to recall the song was written by Cindy Lauper specfically for the movie ("Good Enough" was the title). So wish I had a place to keep one an original arcade machine :|. Though really glad I can see them fixed up here and especially the rarer ones being preserved. Thanks! (Pleasure watching, you really rocked at the game :D)
No it has nothing to do with the Goonies. Nothing about Goonies in the lyrics. They just changed the title to Goonies R Good Enough as a cash in and put some Goonies stuff in the music video to tie it in.
@@thefonzkiss well, I stand corrected, I just recaledl it was released with the movie. I bow to your superior information :). Wiki says the single came out with the movie.
The big guy You were thinking of is Sloth. The song is a Cindy Lauper song called Goonies r enough. Also the game is The goonies 1 that they did release in japan for the nes. The goonies 2 we got here. it was suppose to be the continuation to the first movie where you need to save the rest of the goonies and the mermaid Annie.
Is the Bart vs. the space mutants also as part of the vs. system, i wasn't sure if it was part of the same system, or literally just the name of the actual game itself?
Yeah...the play choice 10 at Ames always ran out of time while I was on level 2...and I was like "c'mon people" And..Holy hell it does sound like Jackson Browne.....
I completely agree about not de-converting it back to Donkey Kong. Nintendo intended for operators to convert their existing cabs like this, so it’s essentially an official cab. Changing it back would as you say remove one rare cab and replace it with one that there are plenty of. Also, I’m listening to Jackson Browne’s Lawyers in Love and I can definitely hear the similarity! 😅
First time seeing a goonies arcade and I was born in 1970 and always been an arcade gamer and a pc gamer now and never knew there was a goonies one. lol
Goonies was also released for Playchoice in the US. I have a Goonies cart for my Playchoice. When my machine was at PRGE I would put Goonies on and crank up that great iconic music and just let it play.
@@SeanmanBandI think Goonies 2 was also available on Playchoice in the US. To my knowledge Goonies 1 was only available on Playchoice and Vs. in the US. I could be wrong tho, I’m not an expert on such things.
I can definitely tell that the vs system was made by Nintendo because if you got a handheld Nintendo controler for the NES and if you look at the same control layout for the vs system it's exactly the same as an Nintendo entertainment system controler but instead of being for the home market for the arcade market because the vs system and the NES has the exact same controller layout
Vs. The Goonies is a platform arcade game themed based after the 1985 Steven Spielberg movie "The Goonies". In the game, guide Mikey through caverns evading mice and the Fratellis or use bombs or a slingshot to save your buddies who are being held captive. The game plays Cyndi Lauper's song "Good Enough". Some of the sound effects came from Popeye in this song. So someone has taken a Donkey Kong, Popeye, Mario Bros. Vs. Golf, Vs. Excitebike, Vs. Hogan's Alley, and Vs. Duck Hunt, added a new kit that Nintendo released for the Donkey Kong cabinet, and turned it into a Vs. UniSystem. And after they installed that, they released this game, Vs. The Goonies. It was developed and licensed from Konami, licensed exclusively to Nintendo of America Inc. The Goonies was also available as a PlayChoice-10 title in the U.S. and in the region. Despite the fact that it was released for the Nintendo Vs. System, the game was never released as a cartridge for Nintendo Entertainment System (NES), the home system in America. However, a sequel was released titled The Goonies II, was later released for the home console system.
Loved this game but the Nintendo version was so different and hard. I only knew of one pizza place that we go to once every six months they had this machine
I would convert it into one of the 59 in 1 MAME games. I don't know how to do it, but I see the board on eBay and it has 60 games in 1 board It has DK and a bunch of other cool games. I would love to have that.
My NES ROMs show a Japan NES copy. It was on Ninyendo Entertainment System in japan apparently, unless you can rename with .nes extension from .fd Famicom, copyright 1988, and NES copyright 1986.
I have a Vs Hogan's Alley. I think mine was a Popeye originally which I have to turn back if I want to. Also a TKG1 PCB too :) Yea mine is Ply too. My Gun needs to be rewired though. Got a gun? lol and his name is Sloth :)
@@LyonsArcade I think i just have to rewire it. Contemplating putting a Play choice 10 pcb in it and saving the kit for Hogan's have a extra PC 10 pcb? lol I had to ask ha Oh I loved Goonies lol
Yet another game that I never knew existed. Cyndi Lauper was the bomb back in the day. She still has a great voice, which is amazing considering what age does to most singers. At first I thought what idiot would wreck a Donkey Kong game. After seeing Pitfall and Mario Brothers combined it made a lot more sense. Donkey Kong was probably pretty long in the tooth by 1985. It is very different. Cool game and video. Stupid yellow jumping pricks. Seems like every game has a yellow jumping prick of some sort.
Oh and amusingly, you found the headphones in the game. It's a semi-hidden item that makes you immune to the musical notes that one of the thugs sprays. That's why you weren't being hurt by them.

Vs. The Goonies!!!! Wow, what an AWESOME find Joe!!! I remember seeing it on Tabletop once or twice, but I'd totally buy the full size cabinet... If I only had an arcade room!!
BTW, the Cyndi Lauper song is "The Goonies R Good Enough" with a backwards R. Love that tune, even in 8-bit.
Awesome game! Love how you were humming the theme tune as time went along. Can't beat Cyndi Lauper.

Man, they played that "Good Enough" video before the movie when I saw it in the theater and it's been stuck in my head ever since then.
Man that is pretty cool, never seen that one before. All we need is chunk do his shuffle. Thanks Ronnie

Changing out to a warm white florescent tube behind the marquee really helps bring the faded colors back.

It's the "Fratelli Brothers" - and the gag here is that "fratelli" means "brothers" in Italian.
Thanks for share! arcades forever🕹

Parts of the music sounds like "girls just wanna have fun "by robert hazard
used to play this game at the laundry mat in kc mo on Warnall road back in the day.
That game was so cool! Loved it!
Thanks for sharing Ron. I love The Goonies and had no idea there was an arcade. It looks pretty fun to play. Also, loved the line ,'I did the karate on him'!
Yeah, that's her song from the Goonies. I think it's Good Enough or something like that.
Goonies Are Good Enough. It was a 2 part music video.
That's what I hear too. Great song, and even better music video! 🎶
I was still listening to Time after Time

It is the song Good Enough by Cyndi Lauper. Nice song and very nostaligic if you liked the Goonies as they played the song in the Goonies movie too.
It is the song from the movie.. its good enough..
You made my day. I didn't realize they made a goonies game
Cool! I hope they are lining this one up for a Nintendo Switch Arcade Archives release.
Damn now I want to play it haha sweet looking game.

I'm pretty sure I've played this in the wild many many years ago in the upstate NY area. I've definitely played it since in MAME for sure.
awesome...really enjoyed watching....cheers
I love the upright, I just set up the cocktail version red tent in our arcade in Astoria.
GOOOOOOD Enough! And YES, I hear Lawyers in Love in that melody for sure!
Can’t wait for a video on Cheyenne
I had the Commodore 64 Goonies game for xmas in 1985. I didn't see the film until many years later, it might have helped me with the game if I had :)
Datamost did that game if it's the one I know. I played It on my Atari 800XL.
@@Mrshoujo Yeah same
It seems like they kept making completely different Goonies games there for awhile trying to find one that would stick :)
@@Mrshoujo Datasoft. In the UK it was imported and published by US Gold.
Put many quarters in one of those at the local laundromat, along with Hogans Alley which sat next to it.

I used to play this a lot at Showbiz Pizza/Chuck E Cheese in the Red Tent machines back in the day
Getting older and collecting all the toys I’ve always wanted. Thinking a Nintendo cab is on my list
Is the Bart vs. the space mutants also as part of the vs. system, i wasn't sure if it was part of the same system, or literally just the name of the actual game itself?
That's just the name, it didn't have anything to do with the arcade system. Thank you for watching JRSC01!
I had the Mari bros vs sold it last year..
Are you talking about the arcade table top version of this called the Nintendo Red tent vs system
That's a Donkey Kong cabinet
Does the monitor have burn in?
YES, I hear the Lawyers in Love! Holy smokes! That is funny.
Once you hear it it's undeniable. I think Cyndi's got some SPLAININ TO DO
the song Goonies are Good Enough by Cyndi Lauper is the music playing in the game ... cool game, very nostalgic!
We had Goonies on our Playchoice 10 in our Arcade. Fun game.
The song is "Good Enough". One of her more well known songs.
Yeah...the play choice 10 at Ames always ran out of time while I was on level 2...and I was like "c'mon people"

The big guys name was sloth, played by John Matuszak who, sadly died four years after making the goonies. I believe he was 37.
First time seeing a goonies arcade and I was born in 1970 and always been an arcade gamer and a pc gamer now and never knew there was a goonies one. lol
Well, now I understand why the NES game was Goonies 2.
Younger people are more tuned into acronyms than abbreviations. Definitely Lawyers in Love. All that ‘80s music has a lot in common.
This was NOT on my frequently played arcade games list??? Never seen before. Love everything old(er) being brought back!👍🏻
Now you can say you saw it! Thanks for watching Viking74!
Nice job on the cabinet Joe
i spent a whole week of my summer in myrtle beach SC playing this cabinet in something like 1989
The big guys name was "Sloth". His buddy that was one of the kids was "Chunk".
growing up my local 7-11 had this cab for years till they switched it out for a PlayChoice-10
Beautiful job.
What's interesting is that the sequel to this game got a proper US release. It confused a lot of people as to why it was called Goonies 2
Sloth love Chunk!

When you die it sounds like the sound Tron makes when you die. Or is it just me?
Just a little, kind of similar at least.
my cousin rented or owned this game when i was a kid in alabama. somehow japanese imported stuff was common back then.

You guys would do so good in Florida
Isn't the vs system just like a NES but it's an arcade version of it
That’s the farthest I’ve ever seen anyone get. As a kid I use to wander around in this game and had no clue what I was doing
It's not a bad game. Its Famicom/NES sequel is pretty good too.
When you hear the real song, you'll remember. ...and remember all day long. It'll be stuck in your head. Ha
She was catchy
Such a shame they never released it for the console. I used to play it any time I saw it (and had any quarters in my pocket) but that wasn't often.
Oh and amusingly, you found the headphones in the game. It's a semi-hidden item that makes you immune to the musical notes that one of the thugs sprays. That's why you weren't being hurt by them.
Goonies never say die people come on now
Did y’all survive the earthquake yesterday morning. Would cause a pinball game to tilt? Lol thanks for the video
I didn't even feel it :) Thanks for watching Scott!
Hmmm Dwight Yoakum fixing arcades, right on.
Is this for sale?
I can recognise "The Goonies are good enough" by Cindy Lauper...
The arcade I went to had 3 or 4 of the big 2 screen vs cabs with different games in all the the sides. This was not one of them.
Pablo Escobar had all of the "keys"
Come on Milwaukee come on now sponsor the man..oh wait..this ain't Donnies channel 😁
Munch was my favorite Goonie.
There's Chunk and there's Mouth. No Munch? :)
cool !
