Great work! These videos are very interesting. I drove this track in a lot of games myself but I never paid attention to some of those buildings before or even knew what they were. By the way, Forza Motorsport 7 doesn't always have the same sky conditions (except maybe in Rivals mode). If you do multiple races there during daytime, then it may sometimes be sunny and sometimes gloomy or cloudy. Unfortunately there is no option to force a specific version of daytime though. You can only choose between Day, Night and Rain.

4:38 "I'm not sure why this one loops, I suspect a glitch in MAME" - Afraid not... This was actually a gameplay mechanic... Random scenes would loop and you would need to keep reacting over and over! It might have been an actual glitch in the code of the arcade game... Yes, I remember this game well... I only ever beat teh Wild West stage once and I had this same "Looping" issue hit me a couple of times back in the day! On THE FIRST STAGE!!! So yeah, My guess woudl be it was actually an error in the Arcade Game Code! Which obviously still exists in MAME.

While I appreciate the comparison, what I'm really excited abut is the possibility of playing it again. I loved his game at my local mall arcade Tilt at Northwest Plaza in St Louis, now razed to the ground. I never liked Dragon's Lair because the animation didn't impress me, but the graphics in this did, and I threw away several dollars trying to make progress. The hologram cabinet was so cool, and I would like to relive those memories in whatever limited way I can, but I never found a way to play it on computer. I never knew about any dvd or windows release, so I will be exploring getting those playable after the holidays are over and I have time. Great weird old artifact here, the arcade really tried to present a fun world of future technology then like some amusement parks, and games like this were a big part of it. Gotta love a gimmick that works.

Like one of the other commenters said those repeating sequences over and over and over killing certain enemies was a difficulty feature that increased and became more common the farther you got in the game trying to keep you on your toes and not a glitch with Mame.

There was a gas station near my grandma's house when I was a kid. It had the Time Traveler arcade game. I remember being so amazed that they could project the images like they were. But my amazement was somewhat short-lived when I discovered how difficult the game was. It was really hard to press the buttons and move at just the right time.

@oldschooldriver in the actual arcade (though can be played on PC) the boat racer Hydro Thunder is a great mix of arcade excitement and can be quite hard. Many of the games I run here have difficulty sliders, so I expect you can make them harder. And games that use rubber banding on the CPU controlled cars can be hard/unfair to win 😂
