Back in the 80's, when I was a kid, I played the hell out of this game, and it's gotten to the point where even now, in my early 50's, I still have every section of that game memorized. I can beat that game with one life. Two lives on a badly coordinated day. I remember the first time I saw this game in the arcades and I swore someday that I would own one so I could play it at home. I never was able to get an actual arcade unit, but I've been able to play that game on my computer for years.

I could have written this myself, because that's exactly how I feel (and same age, LOL). I still remember the first time I finished the game; I felt like I was walking on air as I headed home :). Like you, I wanted but never could get an actual arcade cabinet -- they cost way too much money on Ebay now. So I sprung for one of these replicas when they released a second set. It now sits on a shelf above my computer desk, so I can look at it as I work, and set it for a game or two once in a while.

I dumped 2 dollars in for one play, died in less than 5 seconds, and ended up staring at the thing in shock. I have no idea how anyone, anywhere, learned to play the game unless they were an independently wealthy masochist. For perspective, that money was all the money I'd been given to grab a souvenir for the day and would have bought an Archie digest comic or 3 packs of trading cards

I was sent a video about this back in October courtesy of my daughter who knows I’ve been a DL fan since the original arcade game released in 1983 and I had to have it! This was on the top of my Christmas Wish List! I opened this on Christmas and have been playing it since. I can’t help but looking this replica over and over of the details just like the original full scale arcade game! I spent $$$’s on this game (50 cents for 1 Player, 3 Lives) in my day and the day came when I had finally beat “Singe” the Dragon! I love everything about this game ! Everything down to the mini laser disc and miniature coins! I dreamed of owning the actual game (in 1983). Who knew that nearly 40 years later, this replica with full functions as the original is close enough! Thanks for making this available and allowing me to relive my youth!

@fuzzywzhe3 жыл бұрын
The "laserdisc" in this toy cannot be real. Laserdisc is optical so if this was a laserdisc not only would the disc have to get smaller, but so would the wavelength of the laser. It's either got to be just for show, or it's an entirely different format, like MP4. The game was just a series of animated scenes, and this was a "chose your own adventure" game. When you hit the appropriate button or joystick position at the appropriate point, you would chose what the next scene was. Years back, I had this game running on my computer in a simulator. It was a series of video files that I could just pull up in a player, and go through them all. In fact, I think I did that.

You have to remember the time- it was 1983 and there was nothing like this in the arcades. Think Mappy, Mario Bros (not even *Super* Mario Bros yet), Gyruss... There were some color vector games, but besides those there was nothing reasonably high-resolution let alone laser disc quality. People really were lining up for the opportunity to pay 50 cents (double the vast majority of games) only to game over in under 20 seconds, then get back in line to try again. Also, this had to be one of the first times they would often put a screen on top of the game so people could watch. Yes, I was there and painstakingly memorized the required moves until I finally beat the dragon and rescued Daphne. Sadly, this was the only laser disc game I ever finished in the arcade. While I still spent tons on Space Ace which followed after Dragon's Lair, I never had the reflexes to complete it. And don't even get me started on Cliff Hanger- I never got more than 30 seconds into that one.

I plugged in a spare PS4 controller into USB 1 or USB 2 (I believe that determines which player you are), and all the functions were mapped to buttons fairly logical. The video output from this was detected as 720P on my capture device so I would suspect it will look fuzzier on newer 4K displays. I still use a 1080P display in my game room currently. The opening graphics of the NWT logo etc look very pixelated and rough but the actual game play I thought looked really good! I can tell they used an original LD master to rip this from instead of the newer remaster video as some of the original noise etc. common from a LD can be seen and I prefer it that way as it is more accurate overall.

I find this replica fascinating. In this day and age, you can do full-motion video with computer memory and a tiny LCD screen, so the electronics no longer have to be in a big arcade cabinet. When I was a kid, I had a dream that I had a small-scale replica of a TRS-80 Model II computer, but back then such a computer replica couldn't be made because the electronics had to be as big as they were.

If I remember correctly that Princess Daphne sticker is the same one that was on the kick plate of the original machine.

This is correct. While I don't remember seeing them on actual cabs when I was younger, that sticker is for those that wish to add it. I left mine off but yes, it is optional.

Tanks for the video! This is awesome! One of my fav's too. Just need a replica of the Firefox stand up arcade too! These and the Spy Hunter arcade sounds would dominate the Black Cat Arcade I used to go to all the time as a kid. Thanks for the memories LGR! All the best to you! :D

I loved this game back in my arcade days because if you could play it to the end it would always draw a crowd. Made you feel like a badass even though it was just memorizing the moves,

Oh, do I remember playing this game in the arcade. We used to sneak into Chuck-E-Cheese to play it. Only to be chased off by the staff because we weren't with our parents. I spent my paper-route money playing this game and the crowds would gather around while I played. Little do they know how many real hours I spent studying the game play. I even wrote a paper about the game (I'll have to find and post it one day). There were several releases of this game on different platforms over the years, but, nothing beats the real stand up arcades of the 80's. Thanks for posting this video, I may pick up one of these mini versions.

There's an error on the laserdisc. The "Program Material Is Recorded On the Other Side" label should be on the SHINY side, because the LD is read from the bottom. Thus the label showing Side A (i.e. the only side with video on this one-sided disc) should be on the dull side that doesn't have any data, so that the Side A label faces up, while the REAL Side A shiny side with video faces down so the laser can read it.

Apparently, this was one of the few LaserDisc players that reads from the _top_ of the disc. The laser assembly floats overhead, kinda like a record player.
@NozomuYume3 жыл бұрын
@@LGRBlerbs Good god you're right. I stand corrected. Googled actual game LD and it has the label on shiny side after all. o.o; (though the one I found didn't have ANY label on the dull side) All autoflip players can actually read from the top since they move the head to above the disc, but they still obey the standard that labels go on opposite sides from data (side B is top in an autoflip player). This is a real oddity for a single-sided player!

It's about the animation. Getting to see the full film. That's the attraction.

We eventually figured that out, but not until we spent $20 in quarters trying to beat it. That attract mode was an irresistible siren song for 10 year olds.

Dude, this takes me back to the arcade era. This machine was the Two Quarters game everybody lined up for. I never was good at it. Now, I have this game via dvd. You play with your remote. Cool little machine. What's next, SPACE ACE. That would be cool. 🤘🤠

I remember as a child when i first saw this. I was blown away by the graphics quality....i lined up ready with my 50p pieces...and when it was my turn......oh the game play was a bloody nightmare!!! If i had of know the technology behind the game....i would have saved my money and walked away....but still looking over my shoulder at the graphics!! ;-)
