I mean animatronics can be hard to maintain and repair and getting rid of them will probably save money, but on the other hand you can't just have chuck e cheese with animatronics, they may not be the main attraction but with them it's just an arcade with ok pizza to serve.
The Studio C stage is what I grew up with as a 2000s kid; it was vibrant and colorful and I had a birthday party there where it was the avengers era Chuck E. Cheese that reflected extreme sports and being cool at the time. It was back in 2008 when it was still open because my Chuck E. Cheese I used to go to all the time is not around anymore and it got replaced with a furniture store.
I love Chuck E. Cheese stages my favourite personally is the rocker stage and sadly the last balcony stage which was in Rockford Illinois was sadly removed and got 2.0ed so yea that’s sad but it was fun while it lasted
I pretty much agree with all of these. But My changes would be: the awesome adventure stage in S tier. Studio C Alpha/Beta in A tier. Most circle of lights stages in either B, C, D, or F tier. 2 stage in A tier Family album in F tier 2.0 2017 in F tier 3 stage studio c hybrid in C or D tier
IMO Balcony in Tier B and your reasoning are a crime. This was the classic PTT show and it deserves to be judged on so much more than just them being "half-bodied characters" or that you think the theming is bland. First off wood paneling was a style and the set-up allowed kids to see the names of the characters and add to that Mr. Munch's Madhouse underneath and the whole thing was just a crazy incredible experience. Moreover though, the Balcony Stage was an actual show. The songs, the banter, the animatronics all running well and turning and talking to each other (better than they have in any iteration since) - combined with a DARK and SEPARATED show room partitioned off from the restaurant and combined with PTT extra loud speakers and bass MADE Chuck E. Cheese what it was and why it is still a legend today. There has been nothing like it since at Chucks.
You can tell the Studio C variations were giving off late 9s0s/early 2000s vibes because of all the wacky patterns, but I thought it looked fun and cool for the time.
This might sound crazy of me to say, but I actually think the Family Album is WORSE than any version of 2.0 in existence! I’m just glad there are no known survivors of that horrendous excuse for an animatronic stage!
Great video, my only concern, and possible tip for the future going forward is going more in depth on certain one's which you ranked lower, as I found that your explanation on some lower rankers really helped the video, whereas some didn't have any real explanation as to why they were low. Again, not saying that those opinions are wrong, in fact many of them were pretty good, it's just that I feel as if the video would be far more flushed out and full feeling. The place where I think this applied the most was with the balcony stage, where you said something that would infer that it might upset people, while not really explaining as to why that was, but rather just talking about its history. Again, not meaning to be mean, just some food for thought when making videos. Also my location had a rocker stage and was the last one to get rid of it.
I really tried my best to go in depth and explain I just had yo go out of town the day, so I wouldn’t have had time to record so some of my explanations may have rubbed off as brief. Thanks for watching!
The Hixson TN location was my location growing up. Started. Out with a three stage and converted to the Studio C Beta in 2005-06. Wish they’d leave the animatronics in some locations, or lean fully back into them and have all new ones made.
I remember Studio C Alpha In I-drive orlando when I was little kid back in early 2010s! but the 3-Stage is the most best stage ever! than cyberamics stages. So my childhood is always amazing about chuck e cheese stages. Also My favorite CEC Stages: 3-Stage with original tv and Studio C Alpha Stage.
I wish they didn’t replace the stages. They’re only Replacing them because kids aren’t watching them anymore but that’s only because they don’t even bother to do maintenance on them.
I agree I don’t like the live stage or any stage without animatronics. I grew up with a studio c alpha and when they took it out it was the most devastating time of my life :(
Now I actually live in Florida, like 45 minutes away from the Melbourne location. (Galaxy beta stage) so that’s actually my local, so I’ve seen the only galaxy stage irl! And when I was younger, I thought that there were more. So that’s my flex lol
0:31 Off topic of the whole video but i like the fact youre not like "if you dont like my opinion then don't comment!!!" you just let people share there opinion 😭😭😭
It's kinda understandable why the other characters aren't made.. that means it'd be WAY more expensive to fix, and a pain in the ass to fix and check EVERY LAST ONE of these guys.
I grew up with the Florence, KY location, they had a Rocker Stage when i was little, it was a thing of beauty! Then they replaced it with a 2-Stage in 2003 or 2004, and frankly it was a downgrade... but i'd happily take the 2-Stage over a stupid fucking dance floor. 😤
Why did you put the best stages on the bottom they had all the animatronics and good stages and you put the one with little animatronics or no animatronics on the top
Characters are half bodied, the stage is bland, there’s nothing particularly impressive about it. The House Stages improved much on the the theming and the shelf design at least made the characters seem much grander by being higher up and looking down at you. The balcony stage offers none of that, with minimal theming (some having none at all) and it’s just bland 🤷♂️
@@chattychucke5535 In my personal opinion, I like the half bodied bots more. Full bodied always looked goofy and it's not like the legs moved anyway. I always liked how much of an actual "show" the balcony stage felt with the lighting and the bots turning and looking at each other to talk during a show. I also really liked how lots of them are different. Look up pictures and I'm always surprised with the props and theming The balcony had (I'm assuming from the guest characters, but still not 100% on that). What about the tunnels underneath the stage (even though they closed all of them at some point)? And what do you mean the balcony wasn't like the shelf with the height? From pretty much all the pictures I see, everyone is pretty much looking up to see the actual stage. The only thing I agree with you on is the fact that it's kind of bland from the stage itself just being wood grain.
@@JarethR oh for sure the characters are still looking down at you on the balcony stage. But it’s much shorter than the shelf if you look at footage and doesn’t feel as grand. And while yes the play features underneath the stage were cool, often times some- well not so appropriate things would happen down there, hence why it was removed.
@@JarethR and yes guest characters would often times bring vibrant props to the show, but many stages were left without props and just a blank backroom f which didn’t look good.
Every stage should be ranked at its prime, saying that 3-Stages should be lower because they're in crappy condition it's like saying that a guitarrist isn't talented anymore because they broke their arm
Remember kids: the worst kind of stage is one without any animatronics. Take note, CEC
When I found out they did this I was depressed but they bringing them back bye dance floor hello big c

The one in Rockford Illinois was actually a Rocker Stage and not a Balcony Stage.

Studio C Alpha/Beta in A tier.
Most circle of lights stages in either B, C, D, or F tier.
2 stage in A tier

I’m not denying it’s a good stage but just compared to others it doesn’t stand out as much imo but we all have our opinions and I respect yours
But the balcony stage was a blast it was amazing
You can tell the Studio C variations were giving off late 9s0s/early 2000s vibes because of all the wacky patterns, but I thought it looked fun and cool for the time.
I find it kinda cool learning that my childhood Chuck E. Cheese had a prototype Studio C Cappa
This might sound crazy of me to say, but I actually think the Family Album is WORSE than any version of 2.0 in existence!
I’m just glad there are no known survivors of that horrendous excuse for an animatronic stage!

Same
The Hixson TN location was my location growing up.
Started. Out with a three stage and converted to the Studio C Beta in 2005-06.
Wish they’d leave the animatronics in some locations, or lean fully back into them and have all new ones made.
My favorite stage is the 3-stage, my local Raleigh North Carolina Chuck E. Cheese had it until they remodeled
Including the pizzacam and much jr R.I.P 😢😢😢. Oh what that was from Wilmington but still R.I.P
I remember Studio C Alpha In I-drive orlando when I was little kid back in early 2010s! but the 3-Stage is the most best stage ever! than cyberamics stages. So my childhood is always amazing about chuck e cheese stages.
Also My favorite CEC Stages: 3-Stage with original tv and Studio C Alpha Stage.
3 Stage Supremacy
It’s sad that I only saw a 3-Stage once (Laurel) and now it’s removed. I wanna see another 3-Stage soo bad!!!
Same.
In Tallahassee, Florida there is still a stage 3
He won't leave until September or October, I would like to visit him but it's far away
I miss my local 3-stage, we got the 2.0 back in 2019 and it's never been the same
I love the studio c beta mix🎉🎉😂
I agree with you on all of these rankings.
Family album lives within the deepest darkest parts of my nightmares
I wish they didn’t replace the stages. They’re only Replacing them because kids aren’t watching them anymore but that’s only because they don’t even bother to do maintenance on them.
So glad to see the stage I grew up with living in Staten Island! I never knew it was one of its kind. Such a cool stage, sad to see it's gone now.
I remember as a kid, Chuck E. Cheese was the best thing
Great video!
my favorite cec youtuber right now, btw you forgot the cyberamic 3 stage
Since it’s essentially still a 3-Stage I didn’t add it but thanks for the support!
meaty
*THE CIRCLE OF LOGHTS STAGE ONLY ONE OF 32M IS LEFT*
Studio c alpha is one of my favorite Chuck e cheese stages
I’ve never seen the studio 3 stage until this video
Fun fact time: the image you used for the circles of lights 16 moment tier, is from the melrose park location, which is my childhood store
👎
bro my chuck e cheese left the animatronics behind the wall of the 2.0 renovation
I was hoping you added the cu prototype and the 3 stage with the singing flowers but still a good list
I can always make a part 2 sometime later this year 👀
I agree I don’t like the live stage or any stage without animatronics. I grew up with a studio c alpha and when they took it out it was the most devastating time of my life :(
I just got hired by CEC so I appreciate & study this list
I live close to the Chuck E. Cheese with the unique one stage and I’ve been there a few times
I love how he forget the the cyberamic 3 stage
I enjoyed the 2 and 3 stages growing up.
I had the 32 movement blue screen one that was in b tier and it’s still there
I know the 3 stage is the best of all time
This man is my childhood cec youtube
I think a chuck e cheese near me still has the studio c alpha. I might be wrong, its been awhile since ive been there
i grew up with the 2 stage
Now I actually live in Florida, like 45 minutes away from the Melbourne location. (Galaxy beta stage) so that’s actually my local, so I’ve seen the only galaxy stage irl! And when I was younger, I thought that there were more. So that’s my flex lol
Unfortunately their Galaxy Stage got removed
Circles of light with no bot kinda is 2.0
The one stage is my favorite
CHUCK HAS EYEBROWS 6:30 also sorry how old this video am commenting on
0:31 Off topic of the whole video but i like the fact youre not like "if you dont like my opinion then don't comment!!!" you just let people share there opinion 😭😭😭
man i wonder what store had the second 3 stage
I give 2 Stage a S because it is my most favorite cyberamic stage yet! And I also like the Studio C Alpha Stage too! Really
i didnt knew what in the cec 2015 is a adventure machine
The first stage also has the wink
also why did chuck e have eyebrows in the road stage photo?
Rocker stage is a but w list
Still kinda sad we never got the full band in Studio C form!
It's kinda understandable why the other characters aren't made.. that means it'd be WAY more expensive to fix, and a pain in the ass to fix and check EVERY LAST ONE of these guys.
@@HarryRollisProductions true.
@@HarryRollisProductions Also I feel chuck e is the only one who would look good in this style. Just my opinion though.
Studio C Alpha 🔥
They used the three stage on the one stage characters at my chuckE cheese
Someone 1 stage has like a rotating stage for Chucke
Why does the awesome adventure machine look like something a little too advanced for the 90 s and why didn’t they keep it
I love your video
R.I.P 3 stage (only 6 3 Stages left)
My favourite stages are any stage with cyberamics😯😯
If it has the cyberamics I like it :D
As much as I like the 3 stages I can say that I do like the studio c stage
You forgot the cyberamic 3 stage
In my opinion I'd put the studio c beta 16m up to A or B.
I grew up with the Florence, KY location, they had a Rocker Stage when i was little, it was a thing of beauty! Then they replaced it with a 2-Stage in 2003 or 2004, and frankly it was a downgrade... but i'd happily take the 2-Stage over a stupid fucking dance floor. 😤
You forgot the CU prototype
That stage was never installed in any locations and was never finalized, so it’s not really fair to include it
Ok
Lynwood MA?
Why can't these places have walk around characters of every character
Why did you put the best stages on the bottom they had all the animatronics and good stages and you put the one with little animatronics or no animatronics on the top

The best one is the 2 stage and guess what's the worst?
All the stupid dance floor that's who!

most 3 stages are in crappy condition which sucks tho
