When your EV is at 1% and you're miles from a charger. (Duel Parody)

Just a bit of fun based on the 1971 movie Duel staring Denis Weaver. As an EV owner this scene constantly comes to mind when thinking about range anxiety. I know this isn't my usual stuff but I was just sat here having fun. I love making videos and welcome your support. My dream is to make informative entertaining videos full time.

Great! Thank you!
The Retro Byte thank you for this video, I saw that you also added the advertisement of my country Greece! Nice...
I bought a Commodore 64 yesterday and I can guarantee its better then Modern day Microsoft Windows or Mac
Now atari owns the intellivision brand who saw that coming o_O
Quite true. There's a recent Intellivision translation of Super Mario that's spot on.
4:53 for the thumbnail commercial.
@8:32 dad is like: "Billy????- that kid's an idiot!!!!"
INTELLIVISION DOES! 16 bit arcade graphics... (no really; it was a 16 bit system) You can't do this on Atari! INTELLIVISION DOES! 16 bit sports action... You can't do this on Atari! INTELLIVISION DOES! 16 button precision controller... You can't do this on Atari! INTELLIVISION DOES! INTELLVISION DOES! INTELLVISION DOES! What Atari don't!
Is Macintosh spelled wrong on purpose?
Why does it say: '"smart" peripherals' (08:06), do the guys at the commodore marketing department want to express those peripherals are not really smart or what?
3:38 Atari: “Excuse the module does WHAT” 😂
Did getting low grades so your parents would by you a computer, ever actually work for anybody? Nowadays grades don't matter because they're aren't any jobs anyway, so that would have been a smart move for a kid back then, if that actually worked. Of course, back then that $500 scholarship probably paid for a year of college, but nowadays that won't even buy enough gas to get there.
Intellivision. And a hot plate! It's perfect for soup!
Commodore's Australian marketing team were streets ahead of the rest
Love the old commercials. I don’t remember the Gemini.
No but Atari does. LOL!
"The power of the Adam Computer." They were right about that. It pretty much put Coleco into bankruptcy.
0:41-0:46 That's not football, it uses hand, and the ball is elongated.
Fuckin' good old days 🫡
And Colecovision destroyed them all 😂
The early 80s were peak America.
Intellivision > Atari. The first system back in 1980 with a 16-bit processor. Remarkable machine for the day.
Excellent video but no mention of the best bowling Simulator on any eight bit or 16 bit platform which was 10th frame
I just added a new Coleco Adam commercial to my channel my wife was the kid in it 🤣😆🤣
AMIGA F O R E V E R 💾❤️ GREAT MIX🦾🤖
my mom couldn't afford a VHS recorder , but she bought me a commodore 64 back then
If Captain Kirk says buy VIC-20s you better believe we'll buy VIC-20s
I have some distant memory of actually playing Popeye in the arcade 😀
Wow, thanks for the flashbacks!
Just to put this perspective Steve Jobs had barely moved his company out of his garage 😂
I wish Intellivison had a regular joystick.
I seem to remember that they had adapters accessories where you could put a joystick on the disc back then.
Sadly, Intellivsion was D.O.A. in 1980 because Atari licensed Space Invaders and put out a decent version. That was a must-have game that more than doubled Atari's sales, making Atari THE system, and giving them 70% market share. (I didn't know that Lock 'n' Chase was an arcade game, but so what?) Atari having Asteroids and Missile Command in 1981 increased their desirability. But releasing Pac-Man in March 1982 sealed the deal since that was another must-have game, and Pac-Man fever resulted in that port selling 2-5 million more Ataris. Intellivision (and Intellivision II) sold about 3 million total. Nine months later, despite it being a bad port that got mocked in the Intellivision commercial, it was still a top seller according to Billboard's ranking of video games. They were right in their ad that they had better sports games than Atari, but the public had moved on from 2-player games. I always felt that the ad 4:53 where Intellivision is saying, we have space games too, was kind of pathetic.
And no one wanted phone controllers that already seemed retro.
I missed the Intellivision II ad, but I learned recently it was just a cheaper version of Intellivision, not a new system. I heard they were losing money hand-over-fist when that came out in 1983. Getting an arcade game like Burger Time was too little, too late. Intellivision ad: ua-cam.com/video/tjJ0Tl3WENQ/v-deo.html Someone said that ad scared them as a kid! I'm sure that's what Mattel wanted!
Despite I born after this miracle machine, but I still thank to C64 for became my childhood (via emulator).
It's Jan 2024 and I have just bought my first C64 . :) Having a blast !
3:37 Is definitely where the fnaf security breach music came from
10:14 "Is that legal?" 😂 Lori Loughlin saying this quote is priceless!
lol @ Aunt Becky using the Colecovision ADAM to trump up her daughter's college application
I remember seeing that first Amiga 1000 commercial on MTV, but I wasn't really paying attention... and I was just confused! Too bad it was such an incredible machine!
Taimless memories sdig the recycle bin
Great video! I was always curious how Access came about, they produced some very unique and memorable games, I am replaying the Tex Murphy series now as it was always my favorite.
No one's gonna mention the Exorcist music at 5:22 ? lol
Awesome amiga game music <3
The way he got into those commercials, he should have been George PIMPton because he was pimpin Intellivision. nuff said?
