In this episode, we return to the world of Evercade to discuss the Evercade Showcase, which was released on 31st March. In a packed announcement, Evercade released 3 new carts, 2 Super Pockets, a hardware refresh for the EXP-R and VS-R, and teased a few things for the future. To make sense of it all and offer some analysis and predictions, we are joined by our regular special guest: retro gaming and Evercade YouTuber, Crazy Burger.  In addition to Crazy Burger's thoughts and opinions, we managed to get a quick Q&A with Blaze Entertainment's head of marketing, Sean Cleaver.

In dieser Episode von Dirty Minze Left, Folge Nr. 453, tauchen Holger und Arne in eine unterhaltsame Diskussion über verschiedene Themen ein – beginnend mit ihrem gemeinsamen Getränk, dem Gönnergy Juneberry Jam, dessen köstlicher Geschmack sie begeistert. Die beiden moderieren die Episode mit einem schwungvollen Austausch von Gedanken über die Winteredition des Getränks und die enthaltene Koffeinmenge. Darüber hinaus spielen Holger und Arne ein nostalgisches Videospiel namens Burnin' Rubber auf dem Evercade. Arne beschreibt, wie das Spiel, das ursprünglich von Data East stammt, eine 2D-Top-Down-Perspektive hat, bei der die Spieler als Auto von unten nach oben fahren können. Sie diskutieren die humorvollen Aspekte des Spiels, etwa die Fähigkeit, über Hindernisse zu springen und andere Autos zu überfahren. Obwohl einige Gameplay-Elemente unklar bleiben, finden beide Freude daran, sich daran zu erinnern, wie das Spiel die Ästhetik der 80er Jahre widerspiegelt. Im Anschluss daran sprechen sie über das zweite Spiel, das Holger herausgesucht hat: 40 Wings von der Pico Interactive Collection 3. Holger ist nicht ganz sicher, warum er sich für dieses Spiel entschieden hat, aber die beiden haben Spaß daran, sich gegenseitig Fragen dazu zu stellen und die Mechanik sowie das Gameplay zu beleuchten. Danach kommentiert Arne die neuesten Entwicklungen in ihrem Technikbereich, wo sie über den Umbau ihres Wohnzimmers diskutieren. Holger erzählt von seinen Erfahrungen beim Entfernen einer großen Leichtbauwand, um Kabel zu verstecken, und dem anschließenden Anstrich. Dies führt zu weiteren humorvollen Anekdoten über die Herausforderungen, die das Streichen der Wände mit einem kleinen Kind mit sich bringt. Ein weiterer zentraler Themenblock der Episode dreht sich um Arnes Wechsel zu einem neuen Mac Mini M4, nachdem sein Hackintosh zunehmend Probleme bereitete. Er reflektiert über die Idee, einen langlebigen Computer zu besitzen und beschreibt, wie die Umstellung auf den neuen Rechner eine Reihe von Herausforderungen mit sich brachte, insbesondere in Bezug auf Softwareinstallationen und Datenmigrationen. Im Gespräch über den neuen Mac teilt Arne seine Vorfreude auf schnellere Prozesse und eine verbesserte Nutzererfahrung, während Holger hilfreiche Tipps zum Umgang mit externen Speichermedien und der Software gibt. Die Episode beinhaltet auch technische Ratschläge zur Nutzung von Thunderbolt-Gehäusen für SSDs, die Arne in seinem neuen Setup verwendet. Sie sprechen über die Herausforderungen, die beim Transfer von Softwarelizenzinformationen und der Installation von Apps auftreten. Arne erzählt von der grundsätzlichen Erneuerung seines Systems und wie er nebenbei Erfahrungen im 3D-Drucken macht. Dies mündet in eine amüsante Diskussion über die Nutzung von schaltbaren Steckdosenleisten zur Steuerung seiner Geräte. Zudem teilen Holger und Arne ihre jüngsten Fortschritte mit einem reparierten Evercade EXP und ein wenig Humor über die Eigenheiten des Geräts. Holger spricht von seinen Erfahrungen bei der Programmierung einer neuen App, State Transfer, die er als einfachere Alternative zu Postman entworfen hat. Arne äußert sich dazu, dass er den App Store nicht für seine eigenen Webentwicklungstätigkeiten benötigt. Im Laufe des Gesprächs erwähnt Arne die neuesten Erfahrungen und Herausforderungen, die er mit seinem Podcast-Setup macht. Die Episode schließt mit einem Ausblick auf kommende Projekte, während sie ihre Gedanken zur neuen Episode von "Vier unter Deck" teilen und den Zuhörern eine spannende Rückkehr in die nächste Folge von Dirty Minze Left anpreisen.

With a name like Mermaid, a game can be so many things! Is it a scramble type game? Pac-Man or Dig-Dug? Is it a mini-golf game where you play as an octopus like in Marine-Date? Actually it is WindSurfing....I don't know how that is related but that's what it is, and it's pretty good too! We review Mermaid as well as Chopper Command from Dan Gorlin, Pro Tennis from Data East, and The Pit by Zilec on todays episode, check it out!Website -https://historyofvideogamespodcast.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/HistoryofVideo1Email - historyvgpodcast@gmail.comHosts - Ben & WesMusic - Arranged and recorded by BenTransition Music - Arrangement from Viewtiful Joe

Contact us via text  Tonight we are reflecting on Karnov, an arcade port developed and published by Data East for the NES in North America in January of 1988. Data East was responsible for porting popular arcade games to the NES like Burgertime, Karate Champ and Rampage.  Data East seemed to be hell-bent on making circus strongman Jinborov Karnovski, aka “Karnov”, a sort of company mascot by inserting him into other Data East games such as Bad Dudes, where he is the level one boss.  Tonight our visiting Deacon is Cornellius Jefferson III.  The miNEStry founders, Archbishop Dracul and Father Avram, seek to inspire their 8-bit parishioners through methodical and ceremonial scrutiny of the library of games on the Nintendo Entertainment System.

Ty Ueda from Pop's Pinball Parlor in Boston, Ma. is back to defend another game on the show, this time it's 1993's Rocky & Bullwinkle and Friends!Released by Data East and designed by frequent DOTH designer extraordinaire, Tim Seckel, this game probably barely qualifies as it seems to sit somewhere in the middle of truly hated or truly respected.  But Ty is an excitable boy and he LOVES this game so we thought it would be fun to read him all the bad reviews we could find.As always though, we are big boys here; and as such, we talk with big boy language sometimes...this is your explicit content warning.

200 episodes already! Join us in celebration as we look back on some of the podcast's highlights, as well as some new games such as Space Dungeon by Taito, and Tornado and Disco No. 1 by Data East!Website -https://historyofvideogamespodcast.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/HistoryofVideo1Email - historyvgpodcast@gmail.comHosts - Ben & WesMusic - Arranged and recorded by BenTransition Music - Track 6 from Ben's upcoming Album "Demons"

Pinball restoration artist Ashley Ludwig (@ludwigsynopsis) is back on the show to defend her favorite trashy 90s pin, Lethal Weapon 3.Made by Data East in 1992, and based on the hit series of odd couple buddy cop films, Ashley passionately tells us why she thinks that LW3 is actually better than the Addams Family, and we confront her with the heap of bad reviews we found for it all over the internet refuting her claim.Obligatory swear word warning here: we cuss a little bit.

We made it! After more than 200 hours of research over the last several months, the podcast is back and ready to go for 1982! There is no better way to start the year than with Ms. Pac-man. You all know her, you all love her, but have you heard of Treasure Island by Data East or Alpine Ski by Taito? Well we cover all three in this episode so check it out!Website -https://historyofvideogamespodcast.comTwitter - https://twitter.com/HistoryofVideo1Email - historyvgpodcast@gmail.comHosts - Ben & WesMusic - Arranged and recorded by BenTransition Music - Track 1 from Ben's upcoming Album "Demons"

Sadly, they were a victim of wrong place, wrong time. Add to that a bunch of mismanagement, Python Angelo, various lawsuits, and well… you end up like Capcom Pinball.  Even after Capcom disappeared, the lure of what could have been remained, especially as we stumble upon a crazy collector and dreamer who ruined himself... but we will get into that in Part 2.    Join us this month while we discover why Capcom wanted to join pinball, who they bought to table to build machines, poaching talent from Williams, the lawsuits, and ultimately, the crash and burn.  Sources:  TopCast Episode 42 – Python Angelo  Episode 56 – Ward Pemberton  Episode 52 – Stan Fukuoka  Episode 49 – Mark Ritchie  Episode 47 – Chris Granner  Episode 43 – Jeff Powell  Shalhoub, Michael.

How do you do justice describing Brian Schmidt's contribution to gaming? His impact on the global trajectory of games has been immense. There's no doubt in our minds that Brian is one of the most important figures in videogame history, and we couldn't be more honored to have him joining us on the show. This next paragraph is only a portion of what Brian has been up to for the last 35 years or so. Brian Schmidt began his career in games at Williams around 1987. He soon began working on music and sound programming on iconic pinball games like Swords of Fury and Black Knight 2000, as well as the infamous arcade game NARC. He later went freelance and worked on mechanical and redemption games, dozens of licensed pinball games like Data East's Batman and many for Sega. Fun fact: the 1991 Batman pinball game was the first to use Brian's BSMT2000 hardware board designed for sample playback which went on to see use in pinball games for around 10 years. He then went to Electronic Arts and did sound for a ton of console games like Crüe Ball, Desert Strike, Mutant League Football and a variety of sports games. He contracted with QSound to work on 3D imaging in stereo sound and helped create the hardware used for in a number of games, including many Capcom CPS2 arcade machines. Eventually he moved onto Microsoft where he created the audio architecture for the Xbox and Xbox 360, as well as creating the OG Xbox startup sound. In 2009 he created GameSoundCon, the premier conference for industry professionals to learn how to write and implement music for games. He has been the current president of Game Audio Network Guild (G.A.N.G.) for over a decade, an network of audio professionals based around growing the influence and legitimacy of video game music globally. G.A.N.G. along with many other groups paved the way for the recent acceptance of videogame music as a Grammy category. He's currently the audio director and composer for Digital Dreams Entertainment's recent games Mutant Football League 1 and 2, spiritual successors to the EA games he worked on all those years ago. We had the privilege of talking with Brian about his entire career in games from the very beginning to the present. We cover tons of FM music, pinball, NARC, the Pixies, QSound, EA Games, the Xbox, and his current work on Mutant Football League.

Final Fight with a horror skin, Night Slashers saw us take on classic horror monsters and their horde of evil minions.  Developed in 1993 by Data East, this beat 'em up brought all the game features together we like to see in an arcade if only they had a better soundtrack!  In conjunction with our good friends at Big Dumb Monsters podcast we played through and kicked our way through the armies of Death!

Prima puntata della nuova stagione di Intrappolati, partenza subito col botto con un graditissimo e preparatissimo ospite, il nostro Valeriano, che ci è venuto a parlare di Tumblepop, platform della Data East, direttamente dal 1991. Anche se titolo prevalentemente arcade e stranamente per poche piattaforme (Valeriano ci parlerà di un'altra versione molto particolare) abbiamo trovato del bel materiale sul quale discutere. Gioco immediato, molto bello da vedere, veloce, divertentissimo sopratutto se giocato in coop con un amico, il massimo che possiamo desiderare ;) Ringraziamo ancora Valeriano per la sua disponibilità, simpatia e per la passione che dimostra per il retrogaming, per averci contattato più volte, ed essere venuto in puntata, lo apprezziamo sempre moltissimo! continua così ;) Come sempre buon ascolto, e alla prossima puntata... P.S. novità in arrivo ma non abbiamo fatto ad avisarvi in questa registrazione, stay tuned!

A curious release this week, as we come to a game that shipped twice for NES: Once with Nintendo's approval, and once illegally. Ever the rogue, that Indiana Jones. Like Tengen's early conversion of Gauntlet, Temple of Doom adapts an arcade game but makes quite a few changes to its structure, format, and objectives. Capcom didn't have the monopoly on dramatic reinterpretations of coin-op titles for NES, it seems, although Temple of Doom is no Bionic Commando. On the other hand, we also have Data East's disappointingly literal interpretation of Midway's Rampage. Of all the games that could have benefitted from some sort of enhanced gameplay loop or added depth for its console iteration, this is it. But no, Data East simply stripped it down and removed features, making for a game with little challenge or variety over its entire running length.

This week we have a pair of perfectly tolerable games that seemingly no one remembers. Yes, by late 1988, the NES library had grown sufficiently large that it could contain games beyond "brilliant" and "execrable"—works of competent mediocrity doomed by their lukewarm nature to be relegated to the dustbin of obscurity. Cobra Command takes a mundane auto-scrolling shooter and turns it into a Choplifter-inspired adventure with a touch of exploration and puzzle-solving. A fine start! But utterly relentless in its difficulty level and saddled with some very strange, almost "sticky" controls. It's fine, almost good, but it just misses the mark. Meanwhile, Anticipation offers inclusive thrills (if you are a preppy, 30-something Caucasian) and demands you deduce the nature of premade connect-the-dots puzzles before your competition does. It's fine. It exists, and it rounded out the NES library with more family-friendly board games. But does anyone want to play it today? I can't imagine.

I have a fairly modest game collection, but I almost never "have" time to play them. I keep telling myself I'll play these games one day, like when the kids are older and out of the house, or when I have fewer commitments in my life. I also wonder if this "time" will ever come, and should I just sell all these games and play what I have time for. I have a feeling I know what you guys think about this, but I'd be interested in hearing it.   WarriorofWASD I feel this. I have tons of unbeaten games and a wishlist that is just as big. I had to redeem my game time by sticking to motion games (VR and Switch) for exercise and multiplayer with my friends to make it a healthy hobby.   Outro Thanks for listening to the RetroLogic Podcast!

We hope you saved room for the final course in our Blue Collar series because it's a whopper. We're talking about the deliciously classic food service game by Data East - BurgerTime!Peter Pepper packs a lot of peppered pickles in his burgers, but how many peppered pickles can Peter Pepper pack? How did PastBlaster score a free BurgerTime? What are the hosts' picks for their favorite burger chain? Does Mr. SNK have any new moves to add to his repertoire of bun bounces and weiner wiggles?So join us for a very filling episode about cassette tapes, making hamburgers with your feet, a new subreddit, how beer can open long closed doors, BOB SUX, and a recollection of some of our favorite arcade and pinball game buying stories.

Remember 1942? That really bad top-down shooter? Capcom would prefer you didn't. And, to wash that bad memory from our collective mind, we have its sequel, 1943: The Battle of Midway, simultaneously a sequel and a heartfelt apology for that previous misstep. Although this arcade adaptation fails to carry over the multiplayer element from the original 1943 coin-op, it makes up for that shortcoming by introducing a permanent skill-upgrade system. One of the better vertical shooters for NES! Meanwhile, Vic Tokai inexplicably publishes Data East's upgraded NES conversion of Bump'N Jump... well, kind of. In Japan, the home port of Bump'N Jump shipped as "Buggy Popper," which suggests it was meant to be a separate game entirely from the arcade game (alias "Burning Rubber"). Anyway, it's super dated. But still kinda fun? Production note: NES footage captured from  @Analogue  Nt Mini. Arcade footage captured from MiSTer FPGA. Special thanks to  @New Wave Toys  and  @MiSTer Addons .

Silverball Chronicles Episode 24: Data East - Fake It Til Ya Make It   Hosts: David Dennis & Ron Hallett Jr.   Topic Starts at 9:00   Visit Our Silverball Swag Store https://silverballswag.com/collections/silverball-chronicles    Episode Summary  It is often through failure that we learn and after the collapse of Stern Electronics, Gary Stern did not give up. He collected himself over a year and then would work with Joe Kaminkow and Shelley Sax on building Data East Pinball. Often the butt of jokes on quality, code depth, and artwork, Data East would become the only survivor of the 1990s pinball collapse and is now known as Stern Pinball Inc.    This month we take some time to look at early Data East Pinball where Dave and Ron dive into the collapse of Stern Electronics and who owns their Intellectual Property (IP), PinStar Inc., Joe Kaminkow becoming Dave's best friend, the unsung hero of Data East Pinball Ed Cebela, Navy-issued uniforms, Robocop's awesomeness, how time travel actually works, the rise of The Simpsons, and the legacy of Data East.     Big Thanks to Mike Winne for helping with this episode!    Sources:  Pinside at Pinside.com Wikipedia.

An astonishing new miniseries begins as we explore the MCBU - Marvel Circuit Board Universe. We begin with the best licensing very little money could buy in the early 90s, Captain America and the Avengers. What is it about this beat 'em up that makes it so appealing? Why did Data East feature bargain basement Avengers instead of the big guns? Is a spoken word playthrough of the game good podcasting? Typical tangential talk ensues as Jarrod breaks the flat earth conspiracy wide open, Rob gets very upset discussing the worst version of the Juggernaut, Adam personifies the Scarlet Witch, and the crew gives their (totally sponsor free) recommendations for arcade and video game related gifts.

We answer Tyler's call to talk about the arcade game based on the animated show based on the Ghostbusters movie (but not the Ghost Busters TV show, and definitely not the animated show called Ghostbusters), Data East's The Real Ghostbusters. What existing game did Data East repurpose as The Real Ghostbusters? Do we ever come close to pronouncing it correctly? How does this game rank among the all-time best Ghostbusters video games? How many trees and/or robots did Jarrod kill to cover this game? We also go in depth with some pinball talk, give the scoop on the recent Free Play Florida gaming convention, give our choices for best Mario game, and start our restoration of a Sega classic.
