    Today, Charlie goes back in time into the Bronze Age. No, we're not talking about primitive metallurgy and the development of writing systems, but rather black & white arcade video games from the early-to-mid 1970s! In this video, we pick up Depthcharge by Gremlin, a game in which you try to sink enemy submarines, sending all souls aboard to a watery grave... uhh, too soon?? 😬

      THAT’S THE JOKE
      It’s literally a shot-for-shot parody of an old Sally Struthers “save the children” commercial 😂

      @@overtimearcade I have a Super Bug in the works, and then there is my Space Invaders which I guess qualifies as bronze age. Would really like to get my hands on a Stunt Cycle.

      I know very little about Bronze Age games! I hadn’t heard of Super Bug before, but it looks fun! And Stunt Cycle is super cool! I’d always thought of Space Invaders as the beginning of the Golden Age, but I guess it could be viewed as the end of the Bronze Age too!

    That is one cool old machine! What so many don't have a base of reference for is in 1977 that was High Speed! Technology exploded and because of games like this and the whole world changed. Amazing find! I love that marquee! Thanks for sharing it!

      I still owe some cabinet measurements to a fellow KLOV member. And it’s technically a working JAMMA setup, so I’ve used it to test PCBs like in the Golden Tee video. I usually have it sitting up on top of one of my storage shelving racks. But it’s heavier than it looks! 😅
