@@fredrodnick2881 I had an Intellivision too! It was great until my rich neighbor introduced me to games with music, the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). 😎
Lots of great memories playing Burgertime with my dad on the Intellivision.Years later I bought it on the NES with some birthday money and he said"How many more times are we gonna own this game?" 😄 I told him"As many times as we can". 😄
As somebody whose been eyeballing all these Data East games on the Switch eShop (usually selling for between $2 to $8) recently , it was awesome to see this list.
Your entire fashion aesthetic in this video has such on-point color choices. Your hair, glasses and clothes complement each other strikingly well, they contrast in a vibrant and colorful way.
Good video. Genesis version of Midnight Resistance is better than the arcade simply due to the control. The turny knob in the arcade is an absolute chore to use. The graphics in the Genesis port are pretty sparse in comparison, but the music sounds about a billion times better than the arcade version.
Erin Plays it can’t really be played on mame due to the arcade cabinets having duel joysticks I believe The genesis version is fantastic, massively understated, and has probably my all time favourite soundtrack ... definately should give this one a review on its own !
BurgerTime is my all-time favorite. It's basically the game that made me fall in love with video games as a little dude, and set me on the path I'm on today. Thanks, Peter Pepper.
It's fun to explore the differences in gameplay between the various ports of Burgertime. Especially 2600, Intellivision, Colecovision, NES, and Gameboy. In some of them, you can earn extra peppers by grabbing the bonus items. Enemy behavior patterns vary slightly, which greatly changes your pathfinding strategy.
My favorite Data East games are Boogie Wings (ARC) and Fighter's History (SNES). Also I'd like to mention Suiko Enbo: Fuuun Saiki (Saturn), Night Slashers (ARC) and Wizard Fire (ARC). Donald Land (NES) and Captain America and the Avengers (ARC) are ok if you like these characters.
What about Robocop?! One of my absolute favorite 80's movie based arcade side-scrollers. And with his inclusion in the MK11 Aftermath DLC it would have been nice to see him included
I love Burgertime, Robocop, Kid Niki, Breakthru, Karnov, almost every game by Data East. Looking at this video took me to a nostalgic trip. Thanks, Erin
Bloody Wolf for TurboGrafx is my favorite. At one point you have drag a handcuffed George H.W. Bush (pretty detailed resemblance) back through all the levels you fought your way through to find him. And contains the immortal line, "Mr. President, I am a Bloody Wolf." The game's 30th anniversary will be this fall.
Thanks for mentioning the Real Ghostbusters. It's one of my favorite arcades. It's aged well. But, for whatever reason, it's always gone unnoticed and underrated.
The bonus item in BurgerTime does award an additional pepper. You can actually hold up to nine peppers (It's a small container!). Also, in Bad Dudes, the first boss is actually Karnov. The boss music (whiched you used) is actually Karnov's theme music. Data East also made some memorable pinball machines like Phantom of the Opera, Star Wars, Jurassic Park, WWF Royal Rumble, and Star Trek 25th Anniversary. And yes, someone mentioned the best ever hype music in an arcade game.... the boss music in Data East Captain America and the Avengers. OK? GO!
Best Data East game was Captain America and the Avengers (arcade). It's often overlooked because of TMNT, The Simpsons, and X-Men, but it was a great game.
Fighter's History Dynamite: Karnov's Revenge will have to be my favorite Data East game and Captain America and the Avengers Arcade :) Thank you for making this video :)
That was awesome! So may quarters for so little advancement in a game, M.a.m.e. gave back. Thank you for showing Boogie Wings, it's nuts with two players. Your plane has a hook and can pick up the other player or a giraffe. When you crash you become a little dude but can shoot and ride on tons of crap flying at you. Good stuff, I learned a lot!
Robocop was amazing for its day. It had a presentation that just grabbed your attention right away, even in an arcade full of machines. Also it was loud as fuck and hearing Robocop's actual voice, gun, and sounds effects from the movie was mind blowing.
I had always heard great things about Windjammers but never saw it in action and it looks great! I learned about some new games from your list here to check into as well, so thanks for a diverse and interesting bunch :)
Great video, Erin! I’m glad you included Caveman Ninja in this. I held the world record for the arcade version for about a year. Hoping to one day get it back. By the way, getting the bonus food items in BurgerTime doesn’t just give you points - it gives you extra pepper, too, so there is a lot of reason to go for it when it appears. Three of them appear per stage.
That is awesome, congrats! And I didn't realize the food items in Burger Time gave you extra salt/pepper until people started commenting....oops! Anyway, thanks for watching!
Thanks for the list! There were quite a few titles I didn't know about. My personal favourites mostly in there: Dragon Ninja (the arcade halls near me all had the japanese version for some reason), Joe & Mac and I'm glad you mentioned Karnov (remarkably full of secrets for an arcade game), Midnight Resistance (which was remarkable for its rotating joystick, practically an arcade only feature) and Kid Niki. I played Tumblepop as well, but I'm more of a Bubble Bobble enthusiast. Never cared much for Windjammers, for some reason. Still a classic. I always thought it was by SNK! 😅 I also liked Sly Spy (aka James Bond the arcade game).
I loved the Real Ghostbusters, but it was a quarter muncher. Playing it at the Sears when I was a kid was the only reason I would walk in that store. I'd get a solid 10 minutes with the game for a couple quarters, but so worth it haha! I hear it's just a re-skin of another game, but I'm sure it just wouldn't be the same.
Not by Data East, but the Game Boy version of the Real Ghostbusters (I think it also had a NES release but only in Europe), is probably the better of the lot.
One thing Erin: In "Burgertime," the ice cream, coffee and fries were also worth One shot of pepper. You might not have gotten a full recharge, but getting the food in the center could make a big difference when it came to having pepper to get you out of trouble or being stuck between food villains with no way out.
I'd occasionally play Tumblepop in the arcades, it's pretty much a game with a simple but solid gameplay loop that keeps increasing the difficulty with each stage. It's great due to the simplicity of its design and how well it's used. Joe and Mac were also quite good, rented it a few times when I had a SNES.
Great videos Erin, I'm glad you mentioned Midnight Resistance as I had that on the commodore 64, I was however a little disappointed not to see "Secret Agent" (also known as Sly Spy). 😔
Sly Spy (or I think it was called Secret Agent in some regions) is one of my favorite Data East games. And my top one is probably Street Hoop (or Steet Slam or Dunk Dream) for the Neo Geo. It's like NBA Jam but with way more colorful visuals, cool music, and fun basketball action.
Data East is one of my favorite retro game companies, and I’m glad you covered them! I think my favorites would be Captain America and the Avengers, Heavy Barrel, and Gate of Doom. I’ve described Gate of Doom as Heavy Barrel meets D&D. :P
a Data East collection cd rom came bundled along the Packard Bell desktop my dad bought when we were growing up. it was so janky, the keyboard mapping was odd and the speed seemed off. I still tried playing the hell out of it. The Karnov free play screen made the game look so fun despite me barely being able to make it 20 seconds in lol. Thanks for bringing back tons of memories, great video!
Burger Time came out when I was 8, and I've loved it ever since. Always one of my favorites. My complaint with it, though, is that getting on and off the ladders seems to be more difficult than it should be. Your timing has to be absolutely perfect, or you get stuck just enough for the wieners to catch up to you.
I always thought of Data East as the Dennys of arcade games. You probably weren't going out to play them, but when the other arcade cabinets were crowded, you'd find one of their games to keep you busy.
Let's not forget Captain America and the Avengers. A game that I wish the current holders of the Data East library could find a way to release to modern consoles.
Atomic Runner on the Genesis is easily my favorite Data East game! It's a unique shooter/platformer hybrid with a fantastic soundtrack! I haven't played anything else quite like it. No one ever talks about it. Highly recommended! Much better than its arcade counterpart.
Damn, I forgot that was by Data East. Yeah it's fantastic, it's one of the reasons I plug in my Mega Drive every now and then. And yeah just for the music (even though visuals are better as well) is way better on the home console.
My favourite Data East game is Dragon Ninja in the arcade! So much fun! I need multiple credits to finish it, as towards the end it gets really hard to avoid getting damaged.
Loved the video! You don't know how happy you made me that you included Wind Jammers in your list! I don't like many sports video games, but that is one that I love! I'm surprised you didn't mention Heavy Barrel tho. Great run and gun game! You should definitely check that out!
Here are some of my favorites Atomic Runner (Genesis) Dark Seal Diet Go Go Gate of Doom High Seas Havoc Karnov’s Revenge Night Slashers Spinmaster Trio The Punch: Never Forget Me
You should play Night Slashers (1993) by Data East. It was in arcades and the PCFX system (I think). Castlevania+Beatum up It’s available on switch now.
Nice selection. I also recommend Dashin' Desperadoes for the Genesis (really weird and interesting concept) and Captain America and the Avengers (arcade and console), which is also a lot of fun (with a lot of awesome Engrish).
Two of my favorite Data East arcade games are Mutant Fighter/Death Brade and Robocop. After watching this, I fired up retro arch on my phone and looked up those two classics.
Also, if you like "capture the flag" games, there is a Data East tribute game called "Heavy Burger," where players look like Peter Pepper from "Burgertime," and must move a bag of money (from "Lock and Chase") from the center game screen through various other games (Burgertime, Side Pocket, Karate Champ, Midnight Resistance and Lock and chase) to their "Bank Screen" taken from "Bad Dudes". Deposit the bag of cash you carried to win. However along the way you could fight and kill the other players, as well as the characters from each game, and get unique weapons to fight with. Look it up.
Nice video! Seeing as you asked, my favourite Data East game, which nobody seems to have mentioned, is Kung-Fu Master. Once you have have the hang of the controls, it plays absolutely beautifully and gets very frantic at times. I still love it, and I'm still getting better at it.
In Bad Dudes, if you held down a+b buttons during game play for like 2-3 seconds there is the sound effect and the screen flashes. This is a power attack that hits all enemies. Don't move, though, as moving will cause it to cancel and have to start over. I had accidentally found this out on a play through. This is a real great move to use when in the sewer fighting the ninja that multiplies himself.
I played and beat the entire Joe&Mac trilogy on the recent SNES Joe&Mac collection released by Retro-bit. They're certainly not ground-breaking titles, but very enjoyable
I’ve been waiting for a burger time review. Definitely threw my controller at the tv or my brother plenty because of that game. Thanks for this. 👍 Also noticed you respond to your fans. Good on you.
Gate of Doom was one of my favorite arcade games, which was made by Data East. It was ported to the Switch, I think quite recently, as a digital download by some entity called Johnny Turbo's Arcade that seems to be on a mission of porting Data East games to consoles. This Johnny Turbo's arcade also ported the sequel to Gate of Doom called Wizard Fire, a couple Joe & Mac games, some Burger Time stuff, Bad Dudes, and others including an awesomely over the top and hilarious looking movie monster themed beat em up called Night Slashers.
The problem with the NES burger time is you have to be perfectly centered on the ladder before you can go up or down. The intellivision version was much less frustrating
Hello there Erin Plays good morning to you!!!! I love your videos of you hosting video games of classic arcade games from back in the day!!!! I love Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade game from Arcade 1 up!!!!! Thanks so much for posting this video!!!!! I love it!!!! Be cool and stay safe Erin!!!!!!
The ghosts from Ghost Busters always struck me as odd. They aren't really ghosts they are lesser and greater demons. Most of them look like they stepped out of Heironymus Bosch painting of hell.
I remember playing Joe and Mac with my brother growing up. I don't remember if we ever beat it but it was still a lot of fun. Congo's Caper was another childhood favorite of mine but it gets REALLY tough after a while.
I used to play Side Pocket on Genesis, years after I bought for my Super Nintendo, both, very similar and good. Of course, SNes is better, but I have good memories on Genesis version.
Data east was a very underrated Developer. The games had a very unique charm.
Intellivision was my first console and data east had some great games on it that I think are hard to find now.
@@fredrodnick2881 I had an Intellivision too! It was great until my rich neighbor introduced me to games with music, the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES). 😎
Not unlike Erin
Lots of great memories playing Burgertime with my dad on the Intellivision.Years later I bought it on the NES with some birthday money and he said"How many more times are we gonna own this game?" 😄
I told him"As many times as we can". 😄
That's awesome!
Very cute story. Family and games is just amazing when it clicks.
As somebody whose been eyeballing all these Data East games on the Switch eShop (usually selling for between $2 to $8) recently , it was awesome to see this list.
Your entire fashion aesthetic in this video has such on-point color choices. Your hair, glasses and clothes complement each other strikingly well, they contrast in a vibrant and colorful way.
hey thanks!
Joe And Mac is awesome! Thanks for showcasing it amongst the other Data East games
The NeoGeo Titles from Data East are awesome... SpinMasters (a Joe&Mac like secuel) and Street Slam are my favorites D.E. games. Great Video!!
Good video. Genesis version of Midnight Resistance is better than the arcade simply due to the control. The turny knob in the arcade is an absolute chore to use. The graphics in the Genesis port are pretty sparse in comparison, but the music sounds about a billion times better than the arcade version.
Thanks! Yeah I was playing it on MAME and was shocked at how much better the Genesis version was.
Erin Plays it can’t really be played on mame due to the arcade cabinets having duel joysticks I believe
The genesis version is fantastic, massively understated, and has probably my all time favourite soundtrack ... definately should give this one a review on its own !
@@ErinPlays to reload your pepper, grab the coffee and the ice-cream, try it out and see
I personally like the emulated arcade original: I just mapped to turny knob to the L and R buttons and it works wonders.
@@Filthylittleangels I play it in MAME with no issue.
BurgerTime is my all-time favorite. It's basically the game that made me fall in love with video games as a little dude, and set me on the path I'm on today. Thanks, Peter Pepper.
Bad Dudes and The Real Ghostbusters are great games from this list. Thank you Erin for representing both games.
The music in bad dudes is still awesome, takes me back. Thanks for the trip down memory lane Erin.
Erin I just looked at a couple of your videos and I like what I see! I dig! You just earned yourself a subscriber tonight!
Awesome! Thank you! :)
You can charge up and release a powerful punch in Bad Dudes. Both versions have it. It adds to the gameplay.
Flame punch!
It's fun to explore the differences in gameplay between the various ports of Burgertime. Especially 2600, Intellivision, Colecovision, NES, and Gameboy. In some of them, you can earn extra peppers by grabbing the bonus items. Enemy behavior patterns vary slightly, which greatly changes your pathfinding strategy.
IMHO. Side Pocket and High Seas Havoc are pretty underrated Data East games
Michael Taylor Can't tell you how many times I rented Side Pocket trying to beat all the trick shot levels
My favorite Data East games are Boogie Wings (ARC) and Fighter's History (SNES). Also I'd like to mention Suiko Enbo: Fuuun Saiki (Saturn), Night Slashers (ARC) and Wizard Fire (ARC). Donald Land (NES) and Captain America and the Avengers (ARC) are ok if you like these characters.
Someone else likes Donald Land! 🍟
Karanov was awesome back in the day,its the first data east game that comes to mind.
What about Robocop?! One of my absolute favorite 80's movie based arcade side-scrollers. And with his inclusion in the MK11 Aftermath DLC it would have been nice to see him included
I was so happy that Bad Dudes got ported on the Switch. Loved playing this in the arcades!!
Damn Erin.... I remember when you had like 500 subscribers, way to go on your channel growth!!
Thanks so much!!
I love Burgertime, Robocop, Kid Niki, Breakthru, Karnov, almost every game by Data East. Looking at this video took me to a nostalgic trip. Thanks, Erin

Ha, awesome. I'll have to check it out.
Just found your channel and I love it! So much to binge watch and I look forward to new vids, you rock!!
That is the first time I see someone out of my country (Brazil) talking about our brazilian console the Zeebo..lol
I didn't know what it was until I did some research for this video, honestly lol
Thanks for mentioning the Real Ghostbusters. It's one of my favorite arcades. It's aged well. But, for whatever reason, it's always gone unnoticed and underrated.

Best Data East game was Captain America and the Avengers (arcade). It's often overlooked because of TMNT, The Simpsons, and X-Men, but it was a great game.
I like Bad Dudes. The president says Thanks Dude's wanna go for a burger after you beat the game.
There is a sequel. Two crude dudes even better.
Fighter's History Dynamite: Karnov's Revenge will have to be my favorite Data East game and Captain America and the Avengers Arcade :) Thank you for making this video :)
Wind Jammers is my fave, I spent so many quarters playing at the arcade back in the day
That was awesome! So may quarters for so little advancement in a game, M.a.m.e. gave back. Thank you for showing Boogie Wings, it's nuts with two players. Your plane has a hook and can pick up the other player or a giraffe. When you crash you become a little dude but can shoot and ride on tons of crap flying at you. Good stuff, I learned a lot!

I played Tumblepop as well, but I'm more of a Bubble Bobble enthusiast.
Never cared much for Windjammers, for some reason. Still a classic. I always thought it was by SNK! 😅
I also liked Sly Spy (aka James Bond the arcade game).
I remember playing Windjammers with some friends in college, but it might have been a mod since there were 4 players
I cannot believe you actually mentioned Tumble Pop!
One particular Data East game that always stuck out to me growing up was Cobra Command for the NES. That game was really tough but fun!
I loved the Real Ghostbusters, but it was a quarter muncher. Playing it at the Sears when I was a kid was the only reason I would walk in that store. I'd get a solid 10 minutes with the game for a couple quarters, but so worth it haha! I hear it's just a re-skin of another game, but I'm sure it just wouldn't be the same.
That's awesome, haha. And I wonder what game it's a re-skin of!
It’s a reskin of “Meikyuu Hunter G”.
Not by Data East, but the Game Boy version of the Real Ghostbusters (I think it also had a NES release but only in Europe), is probably the better of the lot.

Nice to see some love for Data East!
Chelnov,Sly Spy,Trio the punch,Mutant Fighter,Cliffhanger: Edward - Randy,Wrestlemania series all them are good games,i still play them
I remember when world leaders were under the constant threat of being kidnapped by ninjas 😂
I would also add Bloody Wolf for the TG16 and PC Engine :)
I really like your channel. You are doing an awesome reviews and videos about old games for many platforms :)
Hey, thanks! Glad you enjoy my videos :)
Great Video! I really like Bad Dudes too! I Subbed and liked!
Awesome! Thank you!

Comchia 430 Ah, Heavy Barrel! I held the world record on that game for 4 days in 2018. By far one of my favorite run and guns.
I will never get tired of Avenger's Engrish.
"SEE MY POWER!"""
"WHY SHOULD IT GOES WELL?"
Great video Erin,Joe and Mac is one of my favorite games by Data East
a Data East collection cd rom came bundled along the Packard Bell desktop my dad bought when we were growing up. it was so janky, the keyboard mapping was odd and the speed seemed off. I still tried playing the hell out of it. The Karnov free play screen made the game look so fun despite me barely being able to make it 20 seconds in lol.

Your timing has to be absolutely perfect, or you get stuck just enough for the wieners to catch up to you.
Bad Dudes was one of my favorite games.
great Video as usual Erin :)
I like your videos, few titles i didn't know and now have to check out, and your smile is really contagious
Thanks so much!
I always thought of Data East as the Dennys of arcade games. You probably weren't going out to play them, but when the other arcade cabinets were crowded, you'd find one of their games to keep you busy.
You could make a series of this... I'm interested in knowing your fav Konami games for example ...
Yeah that's what I'd like to do!
TumblePop looks a lot like Super Buster Bros. in level and background design. Once of my favorites on the SNES of all time.
Bad Dudes, that's my childhood right there and Windjammers it's addictive but gets real hard on the last competitions.
I'd have to give props to karate champ (how few 2p fighting games were there until SFII) and Shadowrun for the SNES.
Let's not forget Captain America and the Avengers. A game that I wish the current holders of the Data East library could find a way to release to modern consoles.
The real Ghostbusters took allot of my quarters when I was in middle school.
GhosssttttBUSTERS!!!
The Real Ghostbusters arcade game is a reskin of Meikyuu Hunter G. Check them both out in MAME.
I’m not subscribed to this channel. Why is it showing up in my feed?
Atomic Runner on the Genesis is easily my favorite Data East game! It's a unique shooter/platformer hybrid with a fantastic soundtrack! I haven't played anything else quite like it. No one ever talks about it. Highly recommended! Much better than its arcade counterpart.
Totally agree
@nuwavghost Yeah, it's like he has radioactive diarrhea. He can't stop!
Damn, I forgot that was by Data East. Yeah it's fantastic, it's one of the reasons I plug in my Mega Drive every now and then. And yeah just for the music (even though visuals are better as well) is way better on the home console.
Bad Dudes was one of my all time favorites at my local Aladdin's Castle arcade.
I love Data East games. You should check out Bloody Wolf on the TurboGrafx-16 or PC Engine :)
My favourite Data East game is Dragon Ninja in the arcade! So much fun! I need multiple credits to finish it, as towards the end it gets really hard to avoid getting damaged.
Loved the video! You don't know how happy you made me that you included Wind Jammers in your list! I don't like many sports video games, but that is one that I love! I'm surprised you didn't mention Heavy Barrel tho. Great run and gun game! You should definitely check that out!
Here are some of my favorites
Atomic Runner (Genesis)
Dark Seal
Diet Go Go
Gate of Doom
High Seas Havoc
Karnov’s Revenge
Night Slashers
Spinmaster
Trio The Punch: Never Forget Me
You should play Night Slashers (1993) by Data East. It was in arcades and the PCFX system (I think). Castlevania+Beatum up
It’s available on switch now.
Wow. I’ve never thought about bad dudes since I was a kid. I loved this game as a kid.
Nice selection. I also recommend Dashin' Desperadoes for the Genesis (really weird and interesting concept) and Captain America and the Avengers (arcade and console), which is also a lot of fun (with a lot of awesome Engrish).
hell yeah Beans. always enjoy your content.
Great review Erin!
Two of my favorite Data East arcade games are Mutant Fighter/Death Brade and Robocop.
After watching this, I fired up retro arch on my phone and looked up those two classics.
Also, if you like "capture the flag" games, there is a Data East tribute game called "Heavy Burger," where players look like Peter Pepper from "Burgertime," and must move a bag of money (from "Lock and Chase") from the center game screen through various other games (Burgertime, Side Pocket, Karate Champ, Midnight Resistance and Lock and chase) to their "Bank Screen" taken from "Bad Dudes". Deposit the bag of cash you carried to win. However along the way you could fight and kill the other players, as well as the characters from each game, and get unique weapons to fight with. Look it up.
RoboCop the 1988 beat 'em up/run and gun arcade game developed and published by Data East. My favorite...‼ ♥
I can only imagine the expletives Gordon Ramsay would use playing Burger Time.
"you're not a chef!"
Bloody hell, come on make that burger!!
"Look at that weenie, you dolt! Its wiggling because it's still RAW!"
These graphics are f@&$ing bland!
Sounds like a great new reality show concept "Gordon Ramsay's Video game food Nightmares "😂
Nice video! Seeing as you asked, my favourite Data East game, which nobody seems to have mentioned, is Kung-Fu Master. Once you have have the hang of the controls, it plays absolutely beautifully and gets very frantic at times. I still love it, and I'm still getting better at it.
nice video. hopefully you be more on cinemassacre soon. you seem so down to earth. we love you Erin 😊
Cinnemassacre brought me here, great video!!
thanks so much!
In Bad Dudes, if you held down a+b buttons during game play for like 2-3 seconds there is the sound effect and the screen flashes. This is a power attack that hits all enemies. Don't move, though, as moving will cause it to cancel and have to start over. I had accidentally found this out on a play through. This is a real great move to use when in the sewer fighting the ninja that multiplies himself.
I played and beat the entire Joe&Mac trilogy on the recent SNES Joe&Mac collection released by Retro-bit. They're certainly not ground-breaking titles, but very enjoyable
Captain America vs. Red skull on the Genesis is amazing. Good arcade beat'em up.
I’ve been waiting for a burger time review. Definitely threw my controller at the tv or my brother plenty because of that game. Thanks for this. 👍
Also noticed you respond to your fans. Good on you.
Of course! I try to respond to people. They take the time to watch my videos so I can take the time to reply :)
Shadowrun, SNES! Give it a chance sometime.
"Can't stop dancing! The weasels are closing in!"
i know they didnt develop it.
One of my favorite games ever.
Gate of Doom was one of my favorite arcade games, which was made by Data East. It was ported to the Switch, I think quite recently, as a digital download by some entity called Johnny Turbo's Arcade that seems to be on a mission of porting Data East games to consoles. This Johnny Turbo's arcade also ported the sequel to Gate of Doom called Wizard Fire, a couple Joe & Mac games, some Burger Time stuff, Bad Dudes, and others including an awesomely over the top and hilarious looking movie monster themed beat em up called Night Slashers.
Nice! And I didn't know Night Slashers got a port, that's good to know. thanks!
The problem with the NES burger time is you have to be perfectly centered on the ladder before you can go up or down. The intellivision version was much less frustrating
Hello there Erin Plays good morning to you!!!! I love your videos of you hosting video games of classic arcade games from back in the day!!!! I love Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Arcade game from Arcade 1 up!!!!! Thanks so much for posting this video!!!!! I love it!!!! Be cool and stay safe Erin!!!!!!
data east games are very underrated, especially the earlier ones. p.s your smile is the cutest thing ever
In BurgerTime, the ice cream cones etc not only give you points, they give you an extra shot of pepper to use!
The ghosts from Ghost Busters always struck me as odd. They aren't really ghosts they are lesser and greater demons. Most of them look like they stepped out of Heironymus Bosch painting of hell.
I loved Boogie Wings in the arcade, I really liked how you had the option at the very end of the game to join the evil boss or fight him.
So many good games. Burger Time, Bad Dudes, etc. I remember playing Burger Time on my intellivision.
A chick showing some love for some old school data east games and themes that I grew up with! I'm impressed! You go girl! 😊
I was ALMOST really mad at you, until you mentioned Karnov!!

I remember playing Joe and Mac with my brother growing up. I don't remember if we ever beat it but it was still a lot of fun. Congo's Caper was another childhood favorite of mine but it gets REALLY tough after a while.
I used to play Side Pocket on Genesis, years after I bought for my Super Nintendo, both, very similar and good. Of course, SNes is better, but I have good memories on Genesis version.
I LOVE That Metal Storm poster!
