I like how almost every time you touched the cabinet it made a sound.
WakkoWarner123 Yes, thats the neat "advertising" sound the game always makes...I always like it! I have my Dig Dug cabaret with the same sounds turned on too!
I used to have the Atari 2600 version, Apple II, PS1 (currently on the PSP/PS Vita), PS2, and currently on PSN. I played it now and then. My best friend plays this a lot back in the day.
I remember that Dig Dug commercial! :) That commercial must have cost five times as much as it cost to develop the game itself! :)
the ad looks more modern than the game :P like watching The Frighteners or something
One of my fav arcade games, great job, machine looks mint
Damon0306 Thanks!!!
Years ago, Atari even ran a Movie Ad Trailer for this arcade game.
Tour De Flex Records Yes! Atari did tons of advertising for the full size arcade games back then!
+TNT Amusement Inc That commercial was really fitting if you shipped that machine to a customer.
They LOVED it!
Frank looks a little like Harold Ramis. Seems like a pretty cool guy too. You should keep him around Todd :)
Tod.
More of your videos need to be like this one.
Very interesting.
Better than.
Blah blah super brights in the head.

Dig Dug Atarii licence
Remember a Namco licence in my childhood, and a Zig Zag bootleg too!
FortunaChan Apparently it is a Namco creation....
I predict a Mitshita monitor will fall from that rafter and give a Tuckey a Duckey!
We LOVE those monitors!! :-)
Yes I remember my whole life that Pole Position games thst I would play in a variety of different places, like my old Channel Lumber or Rickels and the Woolworths inside the Willowbrook Mall in Wayne, NJ would always and even FunPlex also in Wayne and to round it off I think it was called Playtime in Rockaway, NJ inside Rockaway Mall, across from the movie theater, they all,had dying Pole Position monitors, and they one day, ***POOF*** they were gone! out of order for about 4 days, then gonzo, to end up,in my local Pizza place, and I would still feed it quarters with a messed up monitor, LOL :)
Damon0306 Ahhh yes! Those were simply wretched monitors!!
Frank & Todd. or Todd & Frank. alot of brains upstairs. troubleshooting is best. :) and the motto is how to keep the boards running :) was it Popeye , Frank's a geek. :D nothing wrong with us geeks I just happen to like Pinball games because I was always better at them than most video games :P
I like black T-molding. usually way more than Chrome. :P silver & gold? hmm there are a few things it might look good on but not much. Yes especially when it's HOT you need a good laugh. So how many wasps make it in your shop ? X_X Bees are to me as snakes are to Indiana Jones :) eek.. Now where was this Frank during Todds vacation. I like this Frank much more
guess you were talking about the differences between the Atari boards and the Namco ones? I have a couple of spare namco boards that do constant reset just before the cross hatch, i'll investigate the second and third cpu's reset lines, they are either bad or probably unable to access memory as any cpu in a multi cpu board has to have the address bus marshalled still. Twin cpu games are common with one doing sound - amidar etc. i'm interested now to look at what the third z80 is doing.
James Brindle It seems so redundant to me! All that processing on that board!
Have you seen a bootleg Galaga - the blue ones they have 4 Z80's. The 4th is to emulate the custom chips. After getting into arcade collecting and revisiting single CPU 8 bit computers like the Commodore 64, you can see why arcade hardware used multiple CPU's.
Does that machine have the original roms with the level 256 killscreen or upgraded roms that goes past that limitation. I heard that some of the boards had upgraded roms.
This machine was sold 3 years ago (when the video was made), so I do not know!
Hey there! How do you change the coin selection on that bad boy. I just picked one up all original, working fantastic. Going in my pizza shop but i need ti change to two quarters. Please help! Thanks
do Atari games typically have a Wells Gardner monitor? 1:02
Sorry for typos, had 1 to many beers :)
Damon0306 I think I had one too few!!
I have a 19" K7000 with a new tube (A48JLL40X) no burn-in from a t.v. set. The picture is not very good, the monitor was made in November 1988 or 1989 and I think there's the original caps in it. Does cap kit really affect picture quality?
+john smith Absolutely! Try the cap kit for sure...some clodhopper could also have twisted some of the color dials
Oh, I know who that famous person your talking about......... It's Todd Tuckey, right?
Scott Cagney I'm not famous yet...but hopefully soon! :-)
Well, I guess frank is actually cool.
hurkamur1 YES!!! Yes he is!!
television set
lysurgeon People LOVE it when I say that!
Namco.
dig dug has nice cab art but the game itself is no mr.do >:D
Majoras Flask Well, they do have the same random maze feature--everything below ground is different everytime you play (the locations)
I liked this video but it didnt address my problem. I'd like for someone to give me guidance on how to fix my Dig Dug (Atari) machine. I sent every one of my PC boards and power supply to a repair guy who I believe was located in Texas, and he claimed that he couldn't find anything wrong with them. Which only left the video boards around the monitor, and I can't believe I have a problem with them. What is happening is, I'm getting some of the POST displays being displayed at the same time actual game play is going on. The game plays just fine, but these superimposed test patterns ruin the game play. I have to believe it is something in the game board, but I'm not any kind of expert at all. I removed all of the chips and cleaned the pins and re-inserted them and nothing improved. Got any ideas ? I can send pictures and videos of the problem, or we could do a Skype session if needed.
dllyons47 We ship our boards to Eldorado Games In Missouri...they will be able to fix your board with no problem!
great commercial , they dont make them like that anymore.
***** That's true....imagine commercials advertising games in the arcade...would never happen today!
TNT Amusements Inc maybe they should and try and get the arcades backto what they once were, we can but dream :)
