Computer Space (1971) ARCADE REVIEW

[ratchetrocks100]

Not as easy as it looks? Wow, cuz it doesn't look that easy. Haha

[bennyc333]

What amazes me is that Computer Space used no digital microprocessor, RAM or ROM. Just old analogue transistors and diodes.

[ArcadeGames]

Do they have a green two player cab too?

[neojake999gamer]

That's RADICAL!

[Gamester81Arcade]

Nice review man. I also like the look of this arcade...looks like it belongs in the old school Star Trek series. Considering this came out before PONG it actually looks better.

[AlphaOmegaSin]

dude that is easily one of the sexiest cabs ive seen. damn, they just don't put that kinda effort into them sadly...well not that often at least

[sinistermoon]

I've played a simulator of this game but never the real deal. Awesome review!

[zenmart]

Interesting and very cool. Thanks for posting.

[Aporifos]

I was honored to play this very cab!

[DeathAdder83]

Chun Li Action Figure Collection Video!

[doginmylense]

Very cool. I have never seen anything like that.

[vintagevideogamegeek]

Did you say "Nutting" Associates? LOL Holy crap that control panel is epic.

[TimOfficialChannel]

The cab looks SEXCELLENT!

Now I see where Atari got their idea for Asteroids from.

[jumblejunkie]

@P0V3RTY09 Actually the guys that made this game would go on to make Atari in 72

[eggertstwart]

@P0V3RTY09 This was actually based on Spacewar! A game made at MIT in 1961 for some minicomputer i think.

[8BitROB]

Reminds me of "The Blob"! lol

[ps3gamesncomicbooks]

IT wasnt the first arcade game, just the first commercial arcade game. Sorry to be so picky I just wondered if you bothered.

[jumblejunkie]

@ps3gamesncomicbooks I clearly said "first video arcade game". *hands you a cue tip*

[ps3gamesncomicbooks]

@jumblejunkie LOL, I see, thanks dude I wasnt tring to be an asshole or anything, I love your podcast :)

[eggertstwart]

@jumblejunkie It isn't. Galaxy game ( a coin op video game) was put out for the public to play in Stanford University 2 months before Computer Space was released. Computer space was only the first released commercially. So don't get all snarky.

[MetalJesusRocks]

That does have to be the coolest looking cab! I've always wanted to see this game in action.

[StixProd]

how much did this one cost you ?

[28steryan]

It looks like a giant bellend and girth, all it lacks is the huge scrotum sack.

[RetrogamerTim]

@larryBundyjr. Oh! Pure comedy gold!!! Hi five for the thrust!

[emojo1990]

dear santa.....

[JillpooThree]

25 cents? In 1971 that was the price of like... an ostrich. Awesome review!!

[RetroToledo]

@JillpooThree It bought you at least a comic book.

[mysticpunk1]

wow those look so strange 

[RetrogamerTim]

Thrust button....now thats a radical button. Cheers for the review.

[LarryBundyJr]

@RetrogamerTim Indeed, the thrust button wouldn't be seen in gaming again until Custer's Revenge :D

[ehwilliams]

im digging these reviews.

[TheSethIkrass]

fuck yeah'
