In this episode, John and Dave look back at the Sega Dreamcast, sharing memories of the console that was ahead of its time but gone too soon. The Dreamcast had zero copy protection - John and Dave traded burned game CDs "like baseball cards" Their gaming favorites included Crazy Taxi (with its Offspring soundtrack), Jet Grind Radio with its anime style, and Shenmue's groundbreaking open world John demonstrates his new "Singe" emulator that runs Laserdisc-style games and lets people create interactive adventures from movie clips They reminisce about playing games on massive CRT TVs that "weighed a billion pounds" John shares his Batocera emulation setup that includes arcade games and serves as a central ROM library They discuss how modern gaming is moving toward platform-agnostic services, similar to what Sega did after the Dreamcast

Send us a textHitting all of the feels with beloved holiday commercials. The wild hype and ultimate failure of LaserDisc. Some strange advertising mascots that starred in their own comic books.Episode 174 is like sitting beside a crackling fire with a cup of hot cocoa, only in podcast form.It begins with commercials. You've heard of The Twelve Days of Christmas? Well, this is twelve of the most iconic and beloved holiday ads of all-time. They might promote beer, soda, candy, and more, but they are chock full of warm and fuzzy nostalgia.Some technology changes the world, like radio, television, and the Internet. Other technology comes in with hype and departs a failure. We go way Back In the Day to look at the history of LaserDisc. It promised to change the landscape of visual media and ended up a footnote in the technological trash bin. But why?X-Men, Superman, and Batman these are not. In a new Top 5, we look at some strange and often hilarious advertising mascots that graced their own comic books. An added bonus is the DC/Marvel crossover that could still happen someday.This Week In History and Time Capsule will be centered around the debut of The Simpsons television show 35 years ago!For more great content become a subscriber on Patreon!Helpful Links from this EpisodeThe Lady of the Dunes.comPurchase My New Book Cape Cod Beyond the Beach!In My Footsteps: A Cape Cod Travel Guide(2nd Edition)Hooked By Kiwi - Etsy.comDJ Williams MusicKeeKee's Cape Cod KitchenChristopher Setterlund.comCape Cod Living - Zazzle StoreSubscribe on YouTube!Initial Impressions 2.0 BlogUPDATE: Bonnie Bickwit and Mitchel Weiser Case - Rolling Stone.comWebcam Weekly Wrapup PodcastCape Cod 1929 PodcastListen to Episode 173 hereSupport the show

If you grew up in the 80s, you grew up in the era of physical media. Our videotape collections allowed us to watch our favorite movies and TV shows over and over, allowing us to develop a deep appreciation for the things we loved. But how did we get here, and how did it all end up changing so drastically? Today we not only revisit the origins of the VCR itself but look at the VHS/Betamax format wars of the 80s and the worthy third competitor: Laserdisc. We also look at the growth of home video, the time when the VCR was under attack by Hollywood, and the progression of the VCR to DVD, Blu-Ray, and then streaming. This episode is also a look at how physical media has become a bit of an endangered species, but why it still has an important place in our modern world. Planes, Trains & Automobiles movie review: Patreon.com/80s

On this episode of HorrorHound Radio, hosts Aaron, Andy, and Martin put down the turkey to discuss the long and complicated history of physical media in film. From the dawning of the format to the video store to the modern 4K trend, no stone (nor video store hentai) is left unturned!

El Topo er selve kultfilmen over alle kultfilmer. Den har nærmest hatt legendestatus siden den debuterte som en såkalt "midnight movie" på The Elgin Theater på starten på 70-tallet. Frem til 2007 var det faktisk kun mulig å se filmen på kino på disse midnattsvisningene, i tillegg til bootleg-VHS´er og en sensurert japansk LaserDisc. Nå i nyere tid er den mer tilgjengelig (i hvertfall rent fysisk), men betyr det at litt av moroa er borte? Er El Topo en film som får deg til å revurdere hele eksistensen eller er det bare surrealisme for surrealismens del? Vi har kanskje ikke svaret, men vi har en mening i hvert fall!Med: Chris og KurtVignett fremført av: Filmjunkiene v/Ivar Nikolai Fallet & Aleksander U. Serigstad

If a footage falls in the woods and no one finds it, is it ever even really a movie at all? On this episode, we dig into the First Found Footage Film, 1961's brilliant indie THE CONNECTION. We also discuss the oft mislabeled First Found Footage Film, 1980's CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST (about 1:10 - 1:30). **Trigger Warning: sexual violence, animal cruelty.** We discuss the virtues and violations of each film, the genre, and more. And of course, there's some MouthGarf Report, and a rousing game of I See What You Did There. So, come on in. We're all waiting for Cowboy here. You can find THE CONNECTION on Kanopy and CANNIBAL HOLOCAUST on Ray Gun (but maybe don't...)Please give us a 5 star rating on Apple Podcasts! Want to ask us a question?

I was 15 years old and a buddy of mine who lived down the street owned a video store. Ok, his parents owned a video store. He was 15 just like me. Not only did we have access to a huge array of VHS, but he also had a Laser Disc player.The Laser Disc was the precursor to the DVD and it was really cool.In the summer while his parents were working, I would ride my bike to his house and we would fire up the laser disc player and watch all kinds of movies we probably shouldn't have. Movies like Friday the 13th and the one that scared the shit out of me.The Exorcist.To me the Exorcist is one of the perfect and most terrifying horror films ever made. The 1973 film directed by William Freidkin from a novel by William Peter Blatty has been called the scariest movie ever made.I will never forget the bright summer sun streaming in through the gaps in the curtains while I sat huddled on the couch watching a nightmare unfold in front of me.I think that's probably why I find myself trying to bring horror elements into my roleplaying games.Literary historian J. A. Cuddon, in 1984, defined the horror story as "a piece of fiction in prose of variable length ... which shocks, or even frightens the reader, or perhaps induces a feeling of repulsion or loathing". Horror intends to create an eerie and frightening atmosphere for the reader. Often the central menace of a work of horror fiction can be interpreted as a metaphor for larger fears of a society.From authors like Edgar Allen Poe, Shirley Jackson, Clive Barker, HP Lovecraft, Richard Matheson, and Steven King to Filmmakers like John Carpenter, James Wan, We Craven, and Guillermo Del Toro Horror is a big part of our lives.Whether we like it or not.And that's what makes Horror such a perfect genre.Today, Mike, Christina, and I are going to be talking about the Horror Genre, what we like about it and how to incorporate it into your roleplaying, because of all the topics we have discussed so far, horror is the one you have to be careful with.Christina, what was your first horror movie?

It's time to power down the LaserTimeDisc miniseries before it starts overheating with an Arcade Obscura. The hosts each pick a LaserDisc arcade game that they feel is either obscure or underrated (or both)! None of the hosts know what the other person's picks are so it always causes some interesting… situations. Did it finally happen? Did we all pick the same game? Why is “An Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge” required reading for this episode? Did we discover the origins of Rainbow Road or a bad acid trip? Why did the first wave of LaserDisc arcades really fail? Since this is our last episode before our hiatus (we'll be coming back in October 2024) we answer what our four favorite Podouken episodes are. We also want to hear your picks on the Discord server! Plus it's time for round 5 of the Listeners' Choice. Hop on the Future Episodes channel and nominate a game you'd like to hear us cover.

In 1981, RCA released a new media format on the market. It was the CED -- the Capacitance Electronic Disc, and it was meant to compete with Betamax, VHS and LaserDisc. How did it do? Not so great! But I own one, so I'm doing an episode about it!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What The Simpsons voice actor first lent her voice to one of the game's characters? Who is “the strongest man… in the world?” By beating the game do you commit mass xenophobic infanticide?!

So you're telling me there was a LaserDisc arcade game… made by popular pinball manufacturer Stern… in 1983… featuring the film directorial debut of Hayao Miyazaki… based on the popular Lupin the III anime… called Cliff Hanger… that is not related to the Sylvestor Stallone movie? Yes we are, and we're going to talk all about it in this episode. Will Count Dreyco strike the first blow? Will the princess be forced to marry someone she can't stand? Will Cliff get stuck in a trapdoor for the rest of his life? Did you realize before this moment that all these questions are lifted directly from the arcade's attract mode and arcade flyer? What, you want more questions? How about some listener ones: do you have advice or suggestions for indie game developers who want to make arcade-oriented titles, and which arcade game first entry is superior to its sequel(s)?

Well howdy, Stranger. Do you think you're tough enough to take on the Mad Dog? Why don't you take a seat over yonder as I tell the tale of a hit LaserDisc full motion video game that took the arcades hostage in the early 90s. This is the tale of Mad Dog McCree. How did a law enforcement simulator company in New Mexico end up being the new sharpshooter of the arcade? Did Jarrod find the perfect specimen of a rooster in a Wal-Mart parking lot? Is the world ready for Mad Dog McThree: Boot Shootin' Boogie? What's our favorite Jeff Bridges quote? Listener questions this week include asking how the secret sauce is made for deciding what games we talk about and naming an arcade game and PCB that we could never part with.

Time to spin up a new arcade miniseries with the Laser(Time)Disc! The first game is a fantasy adventure where we become a valiant knight on a quest to rescue the fair princess from the clutches of an evil dragon. Sure, it's a tired formula, but this one has animation from Don Bluth! We are entering the Dragon's Lair. Hey kids, do you want to hear about the history of the analog optical disc format known as LaserDisc? What Dragon's Lair scene is the most obvious cash grab? Are birds the closest thing we have to angels? How much did Don Bluth and his studio charge to animate the prototype of the game? We respond to two listener questions: is there a game we thought we were good at but after seeing a pro play it felt like walking away, and what is an underrepresented game genre in the arcade?

It is Episode 63 of the Nerdcast Empire, and it is Nerdcast Thursdays as heard LIVE on Twitch.tv/nerdcastempire on May 30, 2024. This week, Mike and I discuss our trip to Animazement this past weekend. We discuss the awesome panels we saw, some of the great merch we picked up, and how we ended up with a bag of biscuits on the way home. It very well may be the best anime convention in America. We'll discuss that live coming up. Tune in!

HT1907 - Laserdisc, Betamax, and Photography Perhaps this is a flawed analogy, but I can't help but look back at the history of technology and conclude that widespread adoption is more important than ultimate quality. Does this also apply to our photographic work? As artists, we tend to want to pursue perfection at all costs. But, like technology, is it just possibly a better strategy to pursue widespread distribution rather than that last 2% of quality improvements?

As with practically every other Beatles podcast in the multiverse, the topic of the week is the 2024 release of "Let It Be" on Disney+.    Lonnie Pena and I sit down, discuss the VHS, Laserdisc, new streaming version and more.

As Apple (and Etta James) promised, "At Last"; the original cut of "Let It Be" is available! Only streaming, no LaserDisc, you wackers Radio Shackers. Speaking of LASIK, Apple's marketing team would have you believe the last time this film was seen was "54 years ago today". #WhenIm64Minus12Plus2 In reality, the last time this core, historically vital film was available was in 1981, but it struggled to compete with season 2 of "Bosom Buddies" and quickly fell out of print.

We're embarking on a two-part rundown of home video formats this week, with part one focusing on analog video up through the mid-1990s and covering biggies like VHS and LaserDisc, plus also-rans like Betamax, Video8, and the truly strange CED. Tune in for plenty of fun trivia, like myths and misconceptions about the first major format war, Sony's ahead-of-its-time analog HD video system, why a video format patterned after a record player isn't a great idea, and a bunch more!(There are some drops in Brad's recording this week due to an infestation of audio gremlins which we're working to exterminate. Apologies for any inconvenience.) The MiSTer clone video from the cold open: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8RSrzM7dM-YShow notes for this ep, with links to a lot of the videos and images discussed: https://tinyurl.com/techpod-233-analog-home-video Support the Pod!

Leah Mitchell returns to the podcast to discuss a personal favorite tv show and episode of Seinfeld! “Everyone has an uncommon experience while going their separate ways on the subway, and Kramer overhears a horse racing tip from another passenger, places a bet at a betting parlour, and wins big, helping to pay for his car fines.” Seinfeld: The Subway was originally aired on January 8, 1992The post Seinfeld: The Subway first appeared on VHS Rewind!.

On the outskirts of history lay the rejects of the tech world. This week, David and Frack are here to discuss two of those rejects: the Laserdisc and HD-DVDs.Between niche markets and strong-armed competitors, these physical media types had a relatively short lifespan, and we are here to tell you why!If you enjoy our show, please leave us a rating & review on Spotify and Apple Podcasts!Facebook Page | Facebook Group | Instagram | Patreon

In what has become a disturbing trend in 2024's gaming industry, a large amount of layoffs happened at Microsoft this week, largely impacting Activision/Blizzard as the result of their merger. While some redundancy is expected, the cancelation of a project that Blizzard had been working on for six years compounded the situation. How do we remain enthusiastic about the games industry when this news never seems to end? Why does it keep happening? We discuss all this and much more on another episode the longest running weekly podcast about video games, Orange Lounge Radio!   Also in the News:   * Palworld Smashing Sales Records, is the Target Growing? * Overwatch 2 Competitive League * Nintendo Reschedules Concerts * LaserDisc Preservation Efforts   All this and more on the show where EVERY gamer has a voice-- Orange Lounge Radio!

Kelly Mielke from the Dr. QuinnCast Podcast returns to discuss often misunderstood Magical Mystery Tour movie. You may remember us covering this same movie back in 2021 but we are back to discuss it again because...well, we really love this movie and feel it deserves a discussion that is released on Boxing Day! Magical Mystery Tour was originally aired on December 26, 1967

Volcanoes are erupting all over the news some are causing earthquakes and evacuations in Iceland, and another in Japan is forming a new island. This week on the Biofriendly Podcast we explore how this hot magma is changing our planet, ponder if we can name the short-lived new island, and we consider releasing all 240 episodes on Laserdisc. 

This is the original commentary recorded in the mid-90s for the Laserdisc release of the film. Subsequent DVD/Blu-ray releases contain a slightly edited version of the original commentary.

“Lead on, adventurer. Your quest awaits!” Forty years ago our eyes were blown from their sockets as they witnessed what appeared to be Disney cartoon quality graphics arrive in the arcades. Of course, we soon found out that the reality of actually playing these LaserDisc games wasn't perhaps what we initially dreamed, yet still Rick Dyer and Don Bluth's Dragon's Lair (and to a lesser extent, sci-fi sequel Space Ace) would become legends in their own right. Leon, Chris Worthington and Jesse join Dirk and Dexter on their animated escapades, and along with contributions from the Cane and Rinse community, remember the many, many direct ports and peculiar - sometimes incredible - conversions to home machines. http://media.blubrry.com/caneandrinse/caneandrinse.com/podcast/cane_and_rinse_issue_569.mp3   Music featured in this issue:1.
