Pretty surreal seeing you guys using my 13 year old footage of SF2. I was still a teenager and got really exited discovering that stage and seeing no info about it online at the time. I almost never miss a video and been a fan of your channel for almost 10 years. Keep up the good work!

Oddly enough, Akka Arrh's gameplay seems to be in fitting with some of the ways Polybius's gameplay has been described in accounts, and the game's extremely limited early testing might have made an imprint on the very few kids who spent their quarters on it... probably coincidence, though.

While I understand the series of events under which Akka Arrh eventually made it's way to the public, at the same time it would've been an absolute travesty to have lost this game to time. It really is a very good and challenging game, so I'm glad the story has a happy ending there, and Minter's reimagining is absolutely stellar.

You know, it might be a controversial move, but until Atari had their official release of Akka Arrh, I can appreciate the efforts of the man that snuck in and copied the files behind the owner's back. He just wanted to give others the chance to play this game, seems like the owner only cared for the fame behind out otherwise he would have done it himself ages ago. There's also a chance this guy who went through all this trouble also motivated Atari's decision to officially release it.

Akka Ahhr makes me wonder... could it be what inspired Polybius? The gameplay looks like every Polybius remake I've ever seen. The tempest like gameplay, plus the unique (and I imagine migraine inducing) zoom mechanic, plus the rapidly changing colors... Hell, being a market test makes sense as to the whole "vanished as soon as it appeared" part if the story. The only thing missing is the popularity angle. I'm guessing that Akka Ahhr started rumors in the arcade community that, over time, morphed and contorted wildly before becoming the bassis for the Polybius story, which would then go on to achieve even higher levels of fame.

Could Akka Arrh be the origins of the Polybius urban legend? The dates only a year off, the game play sounds like it could match, the flashing lights could cause a lot of the symptoms playing Polybius was said to cause. The men in black could be people coming to check on how popular the game was. The supposed long lines for the game could be people misremember and attributing lines for Robotron to Akka Arrh. I could be way off here it just seems like a lot fits.

With this in mined if I had to guess, and this is a big guess, I would say that someone heard disruptions of the game and since no one seemed to be able to remember the name of the game Polybius was used as some sort of joke. To back this up a bit I believe the supposed company name for the game as come to be know as Sinnesloschen which means something along the lines of "deletion of sense". Could be interpreted as a reference to the supposed side affects of the game and a cheeky jab at people loosing there sense over this game nobody can confirm even existed.

Hot take: while I definitely don’t encourage people to impersonate someone to break into a house to steal something, I can’t find myself mad at the guy. The “collector” didn’t have one but TWO cabinets of the game? He had it for years and knew people wanted it dumped so they could play. The only reason I can see he did that was for the power trip of having cabinets ye would graciously let people play at events from time to time. The fact he had an OG cabinet is cool and novel as hell already. There really wasn’t any other reason to keep the game to himself like that.
@McCaroni_Sup
@McCaroni_Sup Жыл бұрын
Normally I'd be opposed to theft, but is there really anything wrong with what he did? From a material standpoint, nothing was stolen. The ROM itself is still on the machine. From a value standpoint, perhaps you could argue that he stole the value that having the game undumped brought. Though this is another ethical debate in and of itself. And it certainly wasn't his obligation to dump the ROM. However, I do think that as a rule anyone who finds a piece of game history should dump it and upload it if possible. Keeping it to yourself is a disservice to the gaming community, since who knows when your cabinet will die? If that cabinet dies, there's a good chance that the last copy of the game dies along with it. So I'd say what the thief did was for the greater good.

For around $25 anyone could dump those tiny EPROMs. Reassembling the PRG and CHR ROMs is literally as easy as copying and pasting them into a single hex file and saving it. The only thing you would need to know is which Rom goes first. But, seeing as there are only 2 possible configurations, anyone can do it.

This video just reminds me that private collectors are an absolute plague on the world of video game preservation. I hope more people find new ways to steal other unreleased ROMs and relics off of these people. The fact that this is an ongoing issue makes me irrationally upset

Man, I have to say it again and again but not releasing StarFox2 was such a stupid move on Nintendos part. Not only was it already finished, both the spriteart and 3d-polygons/3d-effects look more than decent enough to make up for any discrepancy in regards to the 3d-power of the next console-generations.

When you mentioned "Computer Space, the first commercially available video game", it got me thinking of a future video I'd like to see: Before Pong. For so many years the common knowledge was that Pong was the first video game, and now we know that's not exactly true, but I don't think many people really know what else came first or who else had a hand in it.

@@NukeA6 It's not OXO. Oh, don't simply look at the timer, this video will be 1000% worth your time because that question is not as simple as it seems, it dives well into the context of the time (and the history of the answer given to that question), the presentation and voiceover is amazing, the arguments are rock solid in their logic and pretty much everyone in the comments just constantly states how much it absolutely didn't feel like an hour in a very positive sense. This video is one of my favourites on KZbin, *period*, for its outstanding quality. I don't say that often to anyone, but you absolutely should watch it.

Collectors who hoard things which are rare and in danger of going lost forever deserve no sympathy. Retro games, old animatons and much more is lost each day. I can't say I understand the mentality behind defending people who sabotage the very concept of media preservation.
