    I’m amazed the LaserDisc player on this arcade machine holds up still. I got 4 Pioneer LaserDisc players at home with 450 movies. I gotta see this game in person when my wife and I come back to ESA. Just mega cool to see.

    I played so much with this arcade. I used to work at an arcade distributer in early 2000 and I sold one on the internet to a brit guy. I remember it cost alsmot 2000$ of shipping from Quebec to England. I loved that game so much back in the early 90’s. Still fun if not for too long. The hologram is as good as what we see now in VR.
    To increase the illusion, we re-created the 3D shapes in styrofoam and painted them with fluorescent paint.

    This thing was at the Family Fun Center in Prince George, BC and West Edmonton Mall in Edmonton, AB; i thought it was one of the coolest things there but it was so expensive to play. But it stayed with me in the head all these years.

    Eventually, I will tell you about the day I threw into a garbage container 6 brand new Laser Disc players in the box at work (arcade distributer). I did not want to, I was forced to. I still regret it to this day. I want to cry.

    I used to play Time Traveler a few times at a golf place near me when I was younger. I never really got very far but it was kinda neat to see the technology. It seemed like a cross between a laserdisc game and a hologram.

    I managed a Tilt out here in California from 1992-97 , we had Time traveler , the base board area chipped almost always on these things from people feet and etc hitting it.The diagnostic menu is fun on this game, I cant recall which characters talked to you but they were part of it when changing settings. We had at the time spare blocks, i think one was taken off by someone and we had got a new set through the company so we had spares of some of them laying around in the back room.i had to repair all our machines , and also did kits ,changing out games in cabinets, had to do pretty much all the maintenance on them. Watching your videos is partly fun but also at times ptsd, (jk) lol

    Bro @ 4:03 That's a TOTALLY DIFFERENT GAME ..... that is Holosseum (which I've never seen IRL, only references online) but I remember Time Traveler when I was a kid and there were only 3 or 4 blocks... I think just a triangle, rectangle and sphere.... but don't quote me on that..... lol it was FOR SURE not the Holosseum setup tho

      @Nobe_Oddy 7 місяців тому

      I do remember one of the characters walking out from behind one of the blocks (or at least I expected that to happen) but I feel like some of the blocks where in the middle of the play area, not ALL around the edge.... but I do remember seeing one or two of those spaces around the edge with no blocks in them and a spot of glue.. like they came off and were glued onto the play area..... and if you did put on in the play area it would appear like they came out from behind the block - depending on where it is.... so the only machine that I ever got to see (and only played like twice because it cost a whole dollar, but the other actually GOOD games were only $0.50 at the time, so I learned not to waste my money on a game that honestly SUCKED compared to everything else - no offence lol ) was on the Jersey boardwalk that I only was able to play during the summer MUST have had its blocks knocked/broken/pulled off and placed on the play field where I think a woman walked onto the play field from behind on of them.....
      Or maybe not.... I can't remember really :)
