I said it before, I'll say it again - John's Arcade is the best channel on RUclips! Thanks, John, for all the hours of awesomeness! BTW, the longer the videos, the better. I'd rather watch them than most any movie. Have a blessed and prosperous new year!
***** Thanks tons! Means much. :)
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Love your videos too. Getting ready to rent and watch " THE INTERVIEW". Have you seen it yet john?
thomascampr I watched most of it. It's ok. :)
Great video. Been watching lots of these. Love your enthusiasm and energy man!
John, I gotta tell you, the part where you show how to get through the high jump on TAF has helped me sooooooo much ! And I suspect that many other people who were struggling in that part of the game will too. A million thanks for that. Now I've got to go and apply this new knowledge playing MAME. Maybe you should do some dedicated "how to best play those awesome games" videos ? I don't know... Anyway, I really enjoy the "new format", you know, you in front of the camera now, the wobbly table, the drinks, the self-cameraman, the jam-packed fun ! Your videos are getting better all the time. Happy Holidays to you and your family and friends !
Damn fine video John, Loved it from beginning to end. Sad it had to end, I was have a great time the whole way. You are on to something here. Keep it coming. We Love it.
You are very well spoken, and entertaining. This is a great show, keep making them man. Love it!
Absolutely love watching the vids John. Look forward to each and every one..
Michael Salomone Thanks, Michael!
This is one of the places I was going to tell you to visit when you came out here. Oh well, glad you made it! Can't wait to sit down and go through this video.
Hey john! As soon as you explained how to play track and field i finally got to the end! I did it before, but i didnt really know what i was doing... so thank you!
Can't wait to check this spot out. So glad I got the invite. Look forward to playing a Shload of arcades
Hurray for party and for nice "clean" Fun johny i love the music that is played in this episode (and at the start in particular) its so cool to hear a nice song with this mix of those "arcade" electronic sounds :)
Happy Christmas John to you and yours
Great Christmas episode. Merry Christmas and thanks for the awesome videos.
slayer768 Merry Christmas!
Really cool Video this week man.
Cool vid John. 2084 looks awesome. Kalan is a great guy too. I liked the footage of your annual party. It's not a party until there's a tube swap. :-)
Brilliant video John.....i love the way you are slowly evolving your channel.Me and my family really enjoy watching you (usually on a Sunday evening).
I have a seven year old son who thinks arcades are wonderful places (remember that feeling?? ;)
Keep up the good work !
Stuart Sumner Thanks, Stuart! Trying to keep things fresh. :)
I wish I lived closer to you john. This looks like an awesome gathering and good fun
Great video man. That arcade was full of great games.
Great vid john. Love the road trip episodes.
Kevin Rowland Thanks, Kevin! Merry Christmas!
Superb vid as always.
Thanks for all the great content John. I really enjoy your videos. Merry Christmas!
awnnerd Thanks, pal!
Thanks a lot John, I have other lights in my arcade, but that one in 2084 is just what I was looking for. 😃
So much goodness in this video. I would watch a video a day if you have them. Thanks and Merry Christmas to you and your family.
It's a "John interrupts everyone" episode.
+Milk man it happens. :)
Really Johnny, you should let people talk. It makes me totally freaking out when people interrupt me but this is a another quality.
I realize that behavior get lost in the last 20 years....you ask people please not to interrupt and they dont even get what you mean....
+John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech The next johns arcade on the road is Chuck E. Cheese's where a kid can be a kid right?
John is a fanatic it's his nature. Honestly can't blame him lol
A video every day sounds absolutely epic and something to look forward to after work each day.
Fave channel on YT, cheers John for all your hard work :)
Great vid as always. I'm desperatly waiting on new vids! Hope that you release à lot of new ones the upcoming days. Continue the great work John. Happy new Year from the Netherlands.
SOON
Keep up the good work John love the videos
Justin Henning Thanks, Justin!
John this Jam packed video of yours was so sick! the private arcade, the game play demo, the mail , and the showing of your most recent pick up Jump Bug. Keep up the awesome work on the videos. Oh and p.s. yes I think almost a video a day if you have the time would be very awesome I would definetly watch all those videos.
Sick video john.much love from Australia
John I love your enthusiasm. 2084 should charge a membership to belong and upkeep of the machines kind of like a gym membership. Those teenage 80's Gen-X'er arcade games keep the mind and reflexes sharp.
Thanks! 2084 was awesome.
I'm a bit behind watching your videos. Another great video. Thanks for making it.
And seeing all those people playing your games, I bet makes it all worth it
patriots603 yeah, for sure!
The Kill Screens!!!
Love it!
great video as usual, also love your arcade outsiders podcast and it´s funny how people are always complaining that you guys aren´t talking about arcadestuff all the time :D anyway i´m looking forward to your daily videos at chrismas time ;)
Awesome fun interesting video!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Great arcade in CA where I live so I want to see it sometime lol !!!!
You should definitely do a video every day. All my TV shows are on hiatus now for the holidays, and a lot of my podcasts are too, so I could use some good entertainment.
Cool video John. There's an arcade in Fayetteville, Arkansas you need to go visit.
Merry Christmas John!
you too! Merry Christmas.
Actually, the way John finds the time to do all of this stuff is that he is the first successful human clone. There are two of him doing things at any given time. :)
I can see how some people would be shocked coming from your youtube channel to your podcasts. I did it the other way around, love VGO came to the channel and saw a nice tame Jon. Lol, I am still waiting one day for you to get hammered and bust out a guitar on your youtube channel. Anyhow, anything you do is entertaining as hell. Merry Xmas!
Thanks for stopping by brother. "Who's hands are those"? Sandwich drop.. haha
Love the jam packed show, makes it like an old 80's Saturday morning show, all you're missing is some Centurions, Transformers or M.A.S.K. ;) Looking forward to loadsa vids, but a show of the same quality as this one, I'd be happy with one a week. The new format is good, the viewer mail rocks bigtime... Merry Christmas to you and yours mate...
PantherUK Thanks, Panther! Merry Christmas!
this was a fun vid, id say having a vid every day would be good but just don't burn yourself out on it to please us, have a great Christmas
Another great video !!!! the 2084 arcade is so cool...
The Ghost'n Goblins is in fact a dedicated...i have the same one, amazing cabinet, and i love the game.
Con gratulation on the Rock Ola....never heard about the game...will have to check it out on Mame...
John....Merry Christmas !!!!
arcadefever Merry Christmas and thanks! Ghost 'n' Goblins is a sick game. So hard but so awesome.
John, Merry Christmas. Thanks for all the tips through the years. I wonder how many games you've helped save? Thanks again for helping me through mine.
Alan Brady Merry Christmas! :)
I never understand how folk can dislike your videos, idiots. Great vid as always man
Beaps73 Thanks, Beaps. I think I have a hater or two that just dislikes every video the minute it is released. I don't get it! :)
Yeah I agree. Its all over youtube. Every buddy's videos have a couple dislikes and it just confuses me. I heard overall its better than not liking it kinda like bad publicity is better than no publicity.
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech That seems to be the way it goes now. Rock on John!
marshimaroo propbably someone from isis disliked it
Only just discovered your videos John. Was really impressed. Would love to start up a basement like yours, but it probably will never happen unless I separated from my wife. She tolerates my PC gaming (Once my study shelves were full of games I went to Steam and am the number 1 Steam guy in the UK with approaching 8000 games in my main Steam account).
I will be watching your videos from now on assuming you are still doing them. This my first look was recorded over 2 years ago.
Keep up the fantastic work.
Regards
Whiterabbit-uk
+Stephen Brown thanks and enjoy! 8000 steam games? Crazy
Hi John, I would like to start by wishing you and yours a very happy Christmas all the way from Ireland :)
I really like your viewers corner and the e-mails you read out :) and I find your answers educational.
I had to put my projects on hold for a while because I broke my hand two days ago showing my 10 year old daughter some old tricks I knew when I was much younger on her skateboard :( but hopefully early next year I can start up again.
Keep up the good work and I look forward to your next video :)
Anto H. Thanks, Anto! Merry Christmas!
Got to go here one time was amazing! sadly it is no longer there
you are so great i am look for a pinball game keep rockin on
"...I love Rub..." this made me lol. It is weird how its Rub and not Del on some games. :)
a video every day? i can hear the angles sing :D please do this!
Great video john
Bandido looks really cool and that's the first time I've seen it in a video.
The joy stick and 8 way knob is different to my sheriff and the art work .
It's looks completely different but still very very cool.
If I didn't have a sheriff I would own that.
Did you have ago ?
On T&F, the long jump, you want to get a 42 on the line. I can't remember if you have to hit the line twice in a row or not but this will max your jump out at a 9.72. On the hammer throw I used to never look at the speed bar. I just listened to the swings and on the 9th swing I went for it. You want to get a 45 down the side lines. If you do this on the 1st side line or the right side then you usually get a 99.XX. If you get a 45 on the let side line then you could max out the throw at a 99.99 and possibly throw it over 100.00. However, it won't register over 100 but will give you like a .44 or so. I used to play T&F all the time back in 1984. I also think the correct angle for the Javelin is 42 and it's possible to throw it over 100 as well.
Man i wanna play at your arcade John!
I liked the game playing.
Epic private arcade man thanks for taking us along. Question on the rest stop Medieval Madness, i grew up in Mass and live currently in RI, is it in one of the 24 hr stops on the pike? I gotta see this thing man haha
Hi john,in Italy the arcade is almost completely dead but if you come to Venice (Venezia) I'll be honoured to be be your guide for a not so standard tour! As usual great job John , your channel is my favourite
retrodavide Dude, I would die if I went to Italy. I'm 50% Italian and going to Venice is a dream. Some day...
Common fly John out there and show him the town😁 They we can all see a road trip to Italy with you in it. Make it happen!!
John , On Track and Field, Take a popsicle stick and use it to run. Put it between your fingers and you will run super fast. Great Videos.
Congrats on getting your first Rock-Ola cabinet. I've got an Eyes and Warp-Warp that I need to restore. It's interesting that Rock-Ola changed up the instructions on their games. Like you pointed out, Jump Bug has the instructions on the CPO, while games like Eyes have it on the marquee itself. Anyway, enjoy the game! Also, does that Warp-Warp marquee have a big crack in it? I was going to say that I'm looking for a Warp-Warp marquee if you want to sell it. Have fun with the game! -jimbodeanny
rub just comes from a mistranslation of erase like the rubbing of the eraser and yes the shilling is strong in you lol
Hey my name was in the episode wooooo
John, would you consider to do a video on how to adjust the yoke and convergence on you 720 monitor?
Track and Field gave me a blood blister. Can't even do fake athletics without injury.
googleboughtmee if i recall, there was a trick you could do with a quarter....something about putting it on the run buttons? i'd need to ask a friend of mine about it, but he also remembers the trick very well.
Hello John, I have a question, I recently bought a crisis zone and I can hear the fan from the back also the monitors color is off what can be done about that? Also I love your show great videos!
Hey John! Do you travel this much for work or just out of your own enjoyment? I've been wondering this for a while now.
Thanks for the T&F tips on the high jump. That part has mystified me forever. I have Groovy Game Gear micro switches on my MAME cab, but I'm wondering if the keystrokes are impossible to register fast enough to match the actual arcade because I can't come close to matching the speeds people seem to get on the events. I know leaf switches would be better, but whatever. Also, it seems MAME doesn't require you to go back and forth between the run buttons like the arcade. In MAME, I do much better by hitting one run button or both run buttons simultaneously.
evh347 Fly, who has the world record, only uses one button. :)
If I were a girl I would skip sitting on the washing machine and go straight to that table in John's arcade.
Just checked UK prices and its simply not possible to dream about doing this £3500 for one upright cabinet with crazy taxi . Ridiculous
I want a bubble bobble so bad!
you were talking about mame I've got a raspberry pi3 with picade joystick and bought a 32 gb memory card off a guy on eBay and been told there are thousands of games on it but haven't had time to set it up yet
We have an arcade scene in Europe?? Wow, that's news to me. I'm from the Netherlands and arcades are as good as dead here.
Why don't arcades like this exist publicly anymore :(
Now that I know the podcasts are a little more creative in the language it's time for me to start listening to them!
William Long Yeah, we have potty mouths. :)
Would you mind directing us to where the PPU research info you mentioned is located?
The info is here: www.universalppu.com/
Is the music in this video your band's songs? It's pretty catchy.
Yes. Yes it is. Thanks!
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL!!!!!!!!!
Hey John in the last video you where saying bye!!!! because you where tried
And a John already knows the answer but still asks the person....wtf?!(and even when he has never "seen one of those b4" somehow he kinda remembers playing it somewhere..Comedy for sure...
Wow I didn't know you could use a regular tv set tube for an arcade cabinet..
I wanna do a mame arcade machine so I was wondering if there is a way I can use a regular crt tv and somehow connect it to the VGA output of the computer. I know they have VGA to RCA or S Video converters but the picture looks horrible. Any ideas guys?
John, yes it's true...I f'king hate you ;) Now I really want to play those games and it's because of you I started to plan (in SKetchUp) and, in the near future, build an MAME "lowboy cabinet" just for playing those old games. My girlfriend is a bit skeptical about it how many times I will l play on it, but that's fine I will proof her wrong :p
I have one question: what is you opinion in how to place/mount the monitor? Should I place the monitor (yes, it's an CRT) in a horizontal or vertical position? I'm using my old 22" IIyama so its a bit to heavy to make it adjustable (a rotating mechanism) for every game.
Thank You for the video's, I love to watch them and as always: keep up the good (video) work. A Merry X-mas and a Happy New Year to you and the rest of the family.
Hay John i had a Nintendo monitor was starting to turn more red than blue or green, not long after that red just stop working . i panic and zap the red gun and just made it weaker arggg i didn't kill it thank god ,, i recap the chassis with the full size cap kit and Bam red was back and everything was normal , Lesson learn cap`s can affect color :)
This has been going on in my state without me knowing?
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Dunno! Seek it out. :)
Maybe if that 2084 guy had taken his own advice and not had coin-op machines, but instead did a flat entry fee, this place would still be open. I'm not a fan, at all, of "private arcades" .. but I'm bummed to see an arcade have to shut down.
I always thought to get the best T&F a speeds you had to alternate between left/right run buttons. Are you saying Hector literally uses just one button and it's not the alternating back/forth that's required?
evh347 Yep, he uses one button.
You good John because it cost a lot of money maintain a arcade
2 vids in 2 days, the christmas is here!
John, did you ever get that capcom cps-2 18 in 1 jamma board from your friend?
ArcadeSilva No, we didn't talk about it again. :) I should ask Kalan. :)
TracknField why are you button mashing after you have already thrown the javelin ?
Undisclosed no longer! it's at 520 S Claudina St, Unit C Anaheim, CA 92805. Check the facebook page to see when they are open. facebook.com/groups/794018783964264/
24:30 - Someone just started a game of CftBL.
I noticed that the vid of your party nobody was paying Gyruss. I suspect it will be leaving soon.
The TV got a medium resolution-tube?
What is the difference between Stargate and Defender??
Wow dude just move to California already.
Where did your garage ms pac go?
I'd like to watch you playing some PC game someday. There's a lot of hype on walkthrough videos, maybe you can find a place for you there too, since you talk a lot ^_^ (but in an entertaining way). Watch jacksepticeye for an example.
where does he get his cabinits
Hey john is there a way I can contact someone at the 2084 arcade? I would really love to get that "exact" laser light they have. Thanks 😃
This is the EXACT one: www.samash.com/micro-galaxian-laser-amicrogal?cm_mmc=GoogleShopping-_-DJ%20/%20Lighting-_-Channeladvisor-_-American+DJ+Micro+Galaxian+Laser&GSH&CSE&Channeladvisor&CAWELAID=1594687984&CAGPSPN=pla&catargetid=500002510000028166&cadevice=c&gclid=Cj0KEQiAzvmkBRCm3ZbV-4-hwrYBEiQAgLOw61fZtUkp0KXji2_5npxZZ2Ewcx-ujtBIKG8EVT3WrFMaAomi8P8HAQ
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech T&F urban legend? you were gonna ask something and didn't. What was the question?
Fly, people are saying that hitting the run buttons during the high jump and after you throw the javelin, etc. doesn't help. Is that true??? Maybe we can do a SKYPE video together and discuss some strategies? :)
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Hitting run during the Long Jump does nothing. It helps on the Javelin. Hard to notice but it helps. Nothing on Hammer. and it totally helps on the High Jump. I've heard 2.45 on HJ is possible without hitting run. I've only tried a couple times but it seemed very hard at 2.41-2.42. Hitting run I can do 2.51.
