Starcade Eps105

[@sanchezjr13]

I used to watch this show every day after school. Good times!

[@LouGojira2]

Joust is a timeless classic...it would've been great to own one of those cabinets. Joust 2 not so much, but the original Joust is still a blast to this day.

Thank you Kevin , wherever you are . That kid was spittin' rhymes .

TWO from the "Mr. Do" family? That's guaranteed excitementt for this installment of "Starcade".

[@atrain818]

Never knew that Mr. Do had sideart.

[@DLCOrganization]

@@atrain818 -- MOST arcade cabinets from the early days had side art.

[@atrain818]

@@DLCOrganization that's true. But I guess I was meaning the mr. Do sideart with the clown. I have only seen Mr. Do cabs have that generic white background with the red orange and yellow stripe and the word "universal" written in red. This sideart seems rare. Kool tho.

[@atrain818]

This mr. Do cab is also not the original universal cabinet that came from the factory. The cabinet in this show looks to be a conversion kit. Maybe that explains the different sideart.

Mike made a mistake during that poem. He said that two or three correct answers during the Name the Game Board round resulted in a prize. It was actually three or four correct answers.

And later on, we would learn that Cliffhanger used footage from "Lupin III - The Castle of Cagliostro", directed by Hayao Miyazaki, who also directed "Princess Mononoke", "Kiki's Delivery Service", "Spirited Away", "Castle in The Sky", and "Howl's Moving Castle".

[@Trepanist]

Cliffhanger! Wow, that brings back memories.

[@FerintoshFarmsPhotography]

I added it to the in order playlist, hope your day is as amazing as you. kzbin.info/aero/PLf9MGHQuJoh7T5CoxrdqQ3l2n5WkC9y7t&si=VAA15Tq7KsXMn0RC

Mr. Do!'s "FUN ball" 🤡😸

[@NearGuttersPath]

I wonder if contestants ever collided or fell off that narrow stage running back and forth like that lol

[@ThunderFist1978]

After all this time, I finally know what the "Jump! Jump!" game is! It's Cliff Hanger!

[@briancurry6602]

nice

[@epcotman32]

That poem stole the show.

[@attackofthetheeyecreatures3472]

Kinda rap-ish...

[@FUGP72]

Most games they don't start the timer until the player has control. But here in Pole Position (and on another show for Mappy) they started hte countdown 3-4 seconds before the player could move. So unfair.

[@SpacePortArcade]

It is fair if they do it for both players.

[@FUGP72]

@@SpacePortArcade They've also done it for the final bonus round. And once, it definitely mattered as the player just BARELY missed the score to reach.

[@jc626]

Not true. He just didn't start right away and lost like 2-3 seconds. Geoff even mentions the slow start afterwards.

[@seanbaugh3239]

C'mon Bro.... 🤨 Mike was spitting bars at the top of the show. I wonder if his mixtape ever came out. 😂... 😹 *"NUFF SAID"™*

If I remember right, Variflex was the worst skateboard you could buy.

[@Chris-xc4rn]

Loved it. Lol
