Arcade Game: Warp & Warp (1981 Namco)

[@chrisnizer1885]

Definitely one of Namco's best classic games but it's so obscure I never saw one in an arcade. That minefield stage is a blast! Highly recommend it to anyone who likes classic games but unless you have a good controller it's endlessly frustrating trying to make those quick turns.

The minefield stage is a 'blast'....

[@ThunderFist1978]

From an audio standpoint, this is similar to most other Rockola games. Many of you may know that Rockola distributed this game in he U.S. under the title Warp Warp.

I would gladly pay money to play this on Nintendo Switch in an official manner! I have Warpman in Namcot Collection but I want the Arcade predecessor!

[@thinkhector]

Well congratulations. This game comes out tomorrow for the Nintendo Switch!

Those things with their tongues sticking out, they're in the library in Namco Museum Vol.4.

i remember this from a diner i was at decades ago. it was weird then, and still is now.

[@jimmiescott1451]

Used to own one of these...it was brand new back then. Kind of a competitor of Pac Man..sorta based on same premise..fun to play. Still have a bunch of games...Rotation 8...Slick Chick..Battle Zone (atari) Tempest and Space invaders. All in good shape..all originals. Still play them...kids and neighbors loved our house. LOL

This has to be the coolest rom setup I've seen yet.

[@drewlomite]

That music is like a brain attack

[@zanenenty8253]

Bomberman + Wizard of Wor = Warp ‘n Warp

[@andoverkansas2581]

Every game that I've viewed from whoever's playing this, has used a cheat code, every time. That just fucks up the whole meaning to the game.

[@ShosuCeladon]

It's more of a demonstration than serious gameplay

Bomberman before Bomberman

[@misschristymarieluca]

One of my favorite Namco games! And Cutie Q! BTW Why does it say 1000 AD as the year for this game's release?

[@chilistudiosvideodump4135]

it doesn't say that at 0:09

[@zanenenty8253]

Where did you see that?

[@marianb2093]

This is the arcade version of warpman?

[@ShosuCeladon]

Yes actually

[@yaywhewclips242]

this was 1 of those like EYES that U rarely saw.

[@bubbythebear6891]

After playing the game on a real machine, I have to say it's nothing really special.

[@Alianger]

It's bomberman!

[@BarbecueinItUpGood]

I never saw this game in an arcade. But, a laundromat 2 blocks from our house had it.

How do you say "Warp" in Japanese? I live in Chicago, but I only saw this game once in an arcade in a mall in Florida back in 1981 or '82 or so.

Waapu (Wah puh) X-D

[@raywpennjr6862]

I played it in arcade it's Bomberman with gun like Shadow with gun

[@ashkirby8896]

I KNOW, RIGHT? THAT'S BECAUSE THIS IS THE GAME WERE THE BOMBERMAN SERIES GETS IT'S GAMEPLAY MECHANICS FROM(THE BOMB PLANTING, NOT THE GUN SHOOTING).

[@davidzapata2319]

@@ashkirby8896 what about sega pengo gameplay of this??

[@ashkirby8896]

David Zapata Pengo is more of a Pac Man clone, as it uses the Pac Man arcade system board and game engine!

[@Microbex]

Bomberman + Wizard of war.

For demo purposes only. Are you the one who harassed Peter Griffin for pretending to play that keyboard?

[@SaitoCheonJun]

뭐야 무적걸고 하는거네 ㅡㅡ;

[@MikeyWayne-zw9pw]

[@datamnesia]

[@riskofror2]

[@-__-_-_--__--_-__-_____--_-___]

[@allenharper2928]
