Arcade: Jungle King/Jungle Hunt & Pirate Pete (1982 Taito)

[@Corsa15DT]

I played this game couple of times when I was 7 years old. Its incredible that we remember stuff from 30 years ago and we forget what we did yesterday

[@Tigerman1138]

Corsa15DT ditto

[@apexone5502]

I have not seen this game since the early ‘80s as a small kid. I had forgotten that it had even existed. Man, KZbin is great for restoring good but forgotten memories.

[@theniteowl297]

For some reason I always loved the music from this game!

[@goblazers78749]

yes. music from this game always filled up the arcade. remember it even though I never played it myself

[@wesleycarter7347]

That's what I'm here for!

[@tekubus]

The reason is because it's amazing!

[@ieuancilgwri3230]

The music!!!!

[@danielm3192]

I loved Jungle King. Played it at the arcade around 1982-1983.

[@Over_Sky]

Gotta love how Pirate Pete uses ropes to get to the other end of his (incredibly long) ship instead of just walking.

[@SpearM3064]

Maybe he's afraid of getting splinters, since he appears to be barefoot. ;-)

[@mr.pavone9719]

The deck is lava.

[@aaendi6661]

Maybe because Pirate Pete is such a badass he prefers doing acrobats instead of just walking.

[@bernhardwall6876]

Or just diving off the other end of the boat, which is right behind him.

[@Outlaw-Josey-Wales]

The minute I heard that music it reminded me when I was 13 years old sitting in a Little Caesars restaurant with my parents backing for quarters to play that game again I could just taste the pizza

[@thierrycashew3432]

On 00:08, R.I.P. My ears...

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

hehe

[@briansweeney6733]

It’s the best art of the game

[@stacyotto4880]

It was one of my favorites back in the day. Spent many Saturday's at the arcade.

[@zachabraham3004]

OMG I FOUND IT. I used to play this in the waiting room of my dentist when I was a kid. I used to be terrified of the dentist and being able to play this game was the only thing I looked forward to.

[@bluethunder7391]

A great game from my childhood, when things were more simple a joystick and one button. Today 100 buttons 4 joysticks analog, digital.

[@josecortez5213]

A few controls but the games were really difficult.

[@mr.pavone9719]

You've never seen the control panel for Asteroids, Defender, Stargate, Front Line, Tron, Space Invaders or Missile Command? They had convoluted controls, lots of buttons or both.

[@CaptainSouthbird]

Kind of interesting how a Tarzan game can become a pirate game with a few different graphics.

[@mateymate3066]

Spent countless quarters and hours with this great game ty

[@seanhansu]

OMG. I remember this theme song so I tried it and it is uploaded. I remember playing this when I was very young. Dayam. Memories.

[@sheldonperry3250]

Jungle King!! Fond memories from my early teen years!

[@smooth_space]

holy shit this unlocked an ancient Memory in me I barely knew I had

[@twaindriver]

Those damn Taito games almost always had sweet tunes. Sometimes I still hum songs from some of their 80's cabinet games.

[@jamaynex]

I remember the rescue music in Jungle King being the tune heard in Jungle Hunt.. I played this game for hours because the 4th stage had the exact same pattern for all 4 stages. The vine stage turned you "old", meaning you barley could jump from vine to vine.

[@zillo77]

How many hours (and coins) I have spent on this game in arcade in the first 80s!!! I was the original Jungle King version with Tarzan.

[@tootsiegirl]

Omg I played this when I was a kid. Thanks for sharing.💖

[@elianeloss1984]

Clássico da minha infância. Show

[@gideonwaxfarb]

Something I just thought about - this is the only game I can think of off the top of my head that scrolls left instead of right.

[@dustinpetersen7730]

The arcade game Kung Fu Master scrolls both directions as you pass different levels of the temple.

[@gideonwaxfarb]

Well, Castlevania does too, but those are in buildings, so they don't count :)

[@djondjon]

I used to love playing this game.

[@toyoscio]

Brings back good memories

[@kepilee6762]

I had this game for my Atari back in 82

[@pnsmexico]

i remember this game in korea at the arcades! thanks for bringing the memories!

[@leeseongjae3771]

0:07 Tarzan's Voice

[@SoulforReal88]

what a fantastic game of its time!

[@Matthew_Paul]

Jungle King is the first videogame I saw in my live. I hardly remember it, I'm 39 now.

[@karenelizabeth1590]

Excellent framerate on this video! Thanks!

[@mickywinters8451]

Haha this game was so cool in the 80s arcades along with excitebike

[@journeymusic]

The laundromat by me used to have this game.

[@JinzoCrash]

One of the first depictions of "love" that made my tiny mind feel funny was beating Jungle King and getting kissed by the girl. Was HORRIFIED when I later only saw the Jungle Hunt cabinets around. I guess Taito got in trouble for using Tarzan's yell, and weren't going to go to the trouble of convincing a court they didn't actually mean for that to be Tarzan lol.

[@adamwebb8114]

Love it! Played the Atari version for years when I was young

[@Rlotpir1972]

0:08 - 'Tarzan yell' by Ron Ely circa 1972.

[@jmarx_live]

That's Johnny Weissmuller doing the Tarzan yell.

[@Freshbrood]

Jungle King seems the best versíon with background music.

[@mkoontz7721]

the pizza place by my the house i grew up in had jungle hunt in the lobby. my parents would take me and while we were waiting for the pizza we'd ordered my dad would give me a handful of quarters to play this game. i was always perplexed by the jungle king version but it all make sense now

[@itzz_da_marsh7]

God I know this game one of my friends had this game on his Atari I loved this game

[@jaynukem1929]

The pirate Pete version looks to be the hardest.

[@truehare]

Man, whoever is playing in this video could really do with a bit more practice, especially with the timing when jumping from rope to rope... And why on Earth would you actively try and touch the bubbles in the water stage? That's just dumb, as demonstrated in this very video when you get killed by the crocodile (TWICE!) because of it. Anyway, great games, great memories, great video.

[@PulserTrance]

My first game in the arcade

[@citizenofthisworld3772]

American Ninja Warrior! :D

[@MarceloPereira-ll4go]

Era feliz está época 1979

[@matijabajic7088]

Jungle king was made at early 80's like handy video game, like smaller mobile phone now,and like tetris 30 years ago..

[@burgerrider7773]

No. Jungle hunt was what the game was re-released as. Family of the man who wrote Tarzan books sued Tatio. They took all the Jungle King games out of the arcades. 1 week later they were returned as Jungle King. The one that was in the arcade I played in came back. They didn't cover the cabinets with new artwork. They just changed the program in the game. Only part that they changed was from Tarzan like to an explorer. The new name was Jungle Hunt. The Machine that came back was the exact same one that they took out. Up to, and including the cigarrette burns on it.

[@yellowveedub]

Our hero changes his hair color quite a bit

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

3:06 i LOVE those savages holding your girl hostage! hehe!

[@marcelogoncalves3033]

Altos fliperamas da Penha Z/L ! Bons tempos que não voltam nunca mais!

[@JustWasted3HoursHere]

I've probably been in 100 arcades in my life and I've never seen a "Pirate Pete" game! Talk about getting the most bang for the buck as far as using the same base code over and over and over again! I wonder how rare that game is?

[@theodorehsu5023]

I remember seeing the Jungle King/Hunt games, never saw Pirate Pete. The Pirate Pete had the added challenge of another pirate throwing a knife at you the Jungle games didn't. Had the pirates in the save-the-girl screen turned to eater-of-person types?

[@valeriozecchinelli2555]

quante partite ci ho fatto da ragazzino,soltanto dalla terza serie di livelli diventava troppo difficile, sulle liane c'erano troppi scimpanzé, i coccodrilli del fiume erano velocissimi, i macigni che franavano sulla montagna cambiavano traiettoria e si impennavano quando ti venivano addosso costringendoti a fare manovre troppo difficili (eri costretto ad accucciarti per schivarne uno e a saltare una frazione di secondo dopo per evitarne un altro) e certe volte te ne franavano addosso 2 o 3 insieme e infine nello stage finale dove dovevi salvare Jane appariva in alto a destra un terzo indigeno che ti scagliava addosso una lancia

[@SilverreploidCLE]

I love this game!!

[@tekubus]

This wasn't the ending theme I remember.

[@avidaurbana]

Eu jogava muito esse jogo,na época do cruzeiro,eu passava várias horas,numa padaria perto de casa jogando.

[@moisesanguelion]

Lembro deste jogo!

[@rodrigoteixeira3638]

Adorava jogar esse jogo !

[@joemasters2270]

If you're in your 40s you'll remember this. I'd pay real $$ to find this for my phone :)

[@DrMackSplackem]

After playing the 2600 version, I found one for my new Apple IIe. The opening screen said "JUNGLE CUNT".

[@sethwarrior9719]

jesus my ears at the beginning

[@cloudjoetwentytwenty8414]

And, on ''jungle king'' the classic tarzan scream is the same from Johnny Weissmuller ooold tarzan movies

[@Joeykm1972]

BTW, what is the name of the song that plays when you rescue the girl? For the Jungle Hunt and Pirate Pete game. Not Jungle King.

[@novice841]

It was a classical piece by Mendelssohn called "On Wings of Song."

[@luizgustavogustavo5141]

Esse eu fui muito bon e zerava muito fácil , tempos bom que não volta mais

[@DPJTRON]

I don't remember Pirate Pete, must be a Mandella thing.

[@donkique956]

In the beginning scene, wouldn't it have been better if he ran through the bushes?

[@nivaldofc1211]

Blond Tarzan just committed suicide @ 3:35

[@alfonsoflorio]

sure this won't flight in the PC (politically correct) era

[@ahrichards5241]

Someone should make a hack called Jungle Book that replaces the player character with Mowgli and the girl with Shanti. Oh and the baboon is King Louie

[@dansmith7106]

George george george of the jungle watch out for that aaaaaaaaa tree!!!

I LOVE YOU

[@connieroy3168]

The Jungle Hunt down and who is kidnapped girlfriend save her one rescue kingdom loved change.

[@connieroy3168]

The game High in the jungle world to the rescue girl who was stop him from water just wanted.

[@sandal_thong8631]

I don't remember the music besides the intro. I also can't say if I heard the Tarzan-yell version. But I do know that people who can't play video games well shouldn't make videos of themselves playing! 👎Nice to see Pirate Pete, though.

[@kevintravers3988]

Like this if this was at your Dentist waiting room.

[@joemasters2270]

A lousy 50 points for ducking under those big ass rocks? Seriously?

[@jim6820]

These TAITO games were dumb but fun.🙂🙃😃😀

[@thierrycashew3432]

You think Space Invaders and Double Dragon are dumb?

[@jim6820]

+Thierry Cashew no just stating the facts. I enjoyed playing these games.🤗😆

[@thierrycashew3432]

jim68 oh me to, the only things that are dumb about this game is the Tarzan rip-off and the commercial.

[@Video-Games-Are-Fun]

taito made double dragon. that was not a dumb game. it was by far the godfather of the beat 'em up genre.

[@thierrycashew3432]

*****​​ The Double Dragon game rules, the Double Dragon movie drools.

[@wolfgangs.8243]

Obvously, you never had to pay money for the game. Otherwise, you would play better.

[@conejopestilente]

lol the player is really bad.

[@donkique956]

Ha! Gayyyyyyy!!!!

[@chaosordeal294]

Cool little tune that plays during this awful, awful game.
