Video Power-Wrestlemania Challenge-Ep. 3 (1992)

[@RW-ij1ci]

Watching this again.... I think the 80s and early 90s were the best years ever to be a kid.

[@ThunderFist1978]

I completely agree with you. I never watched Video Power myself when it first aired, but I did watch Starcade back in the 80s. We had the best cartoons, the best video games... we just had the best entertainment period.

[@mcbailey9]

I used to watch this on WGN all the time.

[@TotallyRadical]

I was turning 14 the year this aired. Great memories for sure. Simpler times. 👍

[@ronjeremy4571]

@@mcbailey9 did you get it at 5-6am too?

[@damin9913]

I was born in the 80s and love both 80s and 90s I miss these times so much can't stand what today's has become

[@thecentralscrutinizer304]

What an awesome time capsule these episodes with the broadcast commercials.....my mornings before leaving for school during 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade were all about this show. Thanks for the upload.

[@NaturalGus]

I love this. And I'm thankful that you kept the commercials. Such nostalgia.

[@joshuanewcombe8454]

My most remebered time watching this show was when my Mom went into the hospital. Got home and watched it at like 4 in the morning

[@RC-Carlos1]

I love watching these commercials. Brings back so many memories

[@TheOriginalFrankMatthews]

Dam this was my shit back in the day! Back when you got codes for games in magazines

[@ghosty_mew_mew7808]

I’m so happy to watch this show again. I think I was living in Guam watching this ❤️ thank you for sharing all these videos.

[@schooltrashers]

I remember this show. Use to tune in all the time. Didn't realize it was cancelled at one point.

[@3sheetz2thawind]

Man...I miss these days!

Season 1 was better

Season one sucked! That's stupid cheap cartoon

[@Real_The_Goof]

I miss these days..

[@acewillingham]

Me too

[@damin9913]

Me too so much!

[@roberthansen4266]

Best part of this show: every episode someone got stuck with Kabuki Quantum Fighter and the Asian stereotype voice would flow right out> As Hans Gruber says, "Regular as clockwork."

[@oldironsides4107]

Or the “classic concentration “ no kid liked

[@Matt-ks8kr]

Can't believe i didn't mind the comercials !!!

[@KrendallMobile]

The only real tip for WrestleMania on the NES: Don't play it! And just how much cocaine did the host snort before doing this show?

[@salozmen29]

That guy is so 90's.

[@skinsman82000]

+salozmen29 well it was the 90s, so thats a good thing

[@jeremyriley1238]

skinaman82000 True that. As a kid growing up then, anything video game-related I ate up in a heartbeat, regardless of quality.

[@jayg6222]

This really made me lol 😂

[@robintaylor4249]

I’ve never seen a television show game show whatever get more criticism for their cocaine useage than with these guys.

[@Azwel]

I remember every commercial

[@gamingaccount9890]

You know Johnny Arcade felt like he was the man back when this show was on.. A kid with his own game show based on videogames.. Anything after this was downhill.. Even in my own life.. My childhood was the best times. From like 6 up to 18..

[@michaelpangan7116]

did i watched this back in the day? im having fun and serious watching this show...but now? damn im getting older!

[@luminous6969]

It's funny how we all know that the reason it didn't start at the beginning of the intro is cos the kid was scrambling to put the tape in and press record. Btw I just realized that this channel has TEN MILLION VIEWS CONGRATS MAN!!!!

[@wtcvidman]

I used to watch this show every Sunday morning. The episode I remember the most is the one with Double Dragon III which I haven't found yet on KZbin. The WrestleMania II question was wrong though because Ultimate Warrior wasn't in WM2. His first WM was WM4. Unless they mean the game, WrestleMania Challenge, as WrestleMania II since it was the 2nd of the NES WWF games with WrestleMania in its name.

[@mcbailey9]

I was thinking the same exact thing. He was actually one of the few guys with music at WM IV. He was only at WM IV-WM VII until Vince fired him after Summerslam 91. He came to Hogan’s aid at WM VIII. He beat Triple H in a squash match at WM XII. They used to show this on weekdays here in Virginia on WGN.

[@damin9913]

I miss the 90s so much everything was about video games so was the 80s

[@luminous6969]

6:55 I love these little moments in these low budget shows. He picked the wrong kid and the kid's like "ain't me bro" and the other kids had to point him to the right kid.

[@MrSockMonkey80]

some fan patience is, doesnt even know the rude awakening.

[@spcwright2002]

FUCK ME RUNNING!! I REMEMBER THOSE COMMERCIALS!

[@MrSockMonkey80]

In the Baby Ruth commercial when the guy returns to grab the last Baby Ruth, why was there a line of 3 people at a machine that 1) is out of order and 2) has only one candy bar left in it?

[@collectingmythoughts991]

LOL Right? These commercials were great. People were so perplexed about an out of order candy bar machine with only one measly bar in it. I guess that was the only food source in the building.

[@puertoriconnect4611]

Ain’t nobody even laughing at any of his jokes. How does he keep his confidence the way he do?

[@TotallyRadical]

Cocaine

[@shows_on_synergy960]

That's quality over quantity with the games that he took. I can tell, that he knew what he was doing. Arkista's Ring is a underrated game .

[@PEEERRRR]

Best show ever. The host was on so much coke lmao...still makes for the best show hahaha

[@skinsman82000]

coke made for the most entertaining tv.....

[@hondamanvtec2894]

No...again..... you dont need coke to be a happy kid in the 90s

[@tritian5874]

shit... what i enjoyed more then the actual coked up show host, Johnny Arcade, is the commercials in between. those are the real gem here.

[@ArtofLunatik]

Tritian seriously

[@oldironsides4107]

That kid just holding a guitar has a sweet gig.

[@luminous6969]

26:53 Why do they always say "Eastpak full of prizes"? Why don't they ever say what those prizes are? Or do they reveal it in an episode I just haven't seen yet?

[@luminous6969]

1:44 Kinda weird how the Baby Ruth is facing forward from the outside AND inside of the machine haha.

Why no snes on this show?

Yeah. Just NES. Snes wasn't out yet i think.

[@damin9913]

In America in New York

[@TheRealClassPresident]

What month did this aire?

[@Sinn0100]

I always wanted to go on this show. Not for the prizes (too much Nintendo) but just to stump him with a question. I had some truly difficult questions lined up some bordering on pure malevolence. Like....how many cabins are in Friday The 13th? How do you activate this cheat or that? Can minus world in Super Mario Brothers be achieved on an Nes World Championship Cart Gold/Gray (yes, it can)? Addendum- I was a fan of both Sega and Nintendo. I started gaming back in 1986 with the Nes and Master System. I got my Genesis in '89 and my Snes in '91. I always wanted a bigger spread of games and they never covered Neo Geo AES on this show either.

[@ThunderFist1978]

The Mega Man creature with one y in his name and one eye in his head is none other than Big Eye. I feel embarrassed that I had to think about that.

[@wtcvidman]

Yellow Devil was the one I was thinking of. But I think he was referred to as the Rock Monster here in those days. At least from what I remember from my Mega Man 3 Nintendo Power issue.

neverwalkalone +staged. Kids fed lines. All the kids on stage and in audience were real NY kids and not show biz kids (nervous? jaded? Dead inside?), so he had to pick up the slack. Kids are like.... DON'T TOUCH ME!

[@datboijj]

was johnny really on the spot? I always wondered if he had the questions before hand and had the people in the background feed him the answers. However, his answers seemed to be a bit improved leading me to believe that it was his own answers. That means he is quite knowledgeable in video games an not just some pretty boy host.

[@pguerrero329]

JJamil Luzano I think it was scripted even when he got stumped. I remember seeing an episode where the MC guy who goes in the audience picked a kid and you can tell he picked the wrong one because he sat the kid back down and went to the kid next to him. Plus some of his answers were freestyle rap lol.
