Awesome clip... the HTM tune fits perfectly into this 4-bit & 8-bit (even a little of 16-bit ) video game jungle, the old game advertisements are a bonus!! At 1.38 it looks like "1942" or "1943" and therafter, at 1.39, it looks like Super Spy Hunter. There's Wrestlemania at 2.14... Great work, this video's truly a gem!
Oh ok... i thought that was Super Spy Hunter, it looked a lot like a certain stage from that game...thanks for the info and ... Happy The Man New Year ;)
Beyond Awesome, A great video that reminds of the great games of yesterday. Personally, I hope all of these games will be in the "library" of classic games available for download when Nintendo Wii launches!
This gets 5 stars because of Vice: Project Doom for NES having some spotlight time alone. A sweet game many people have never heard of. Definitely a hidden gem.
wow, there was only 4 games on there I couldn't name. I'm glad you threw in wizzards and warriors. Music was good to, but a litle nostalgic.. I almost cried.
the only thing that bothered me was the 80's video rip quality of the commercials and pre-nes games. though i am aware that this cannot be helped. it is but a small grievance.
Nicely done. I'll probably be one of the very few who come to this more for Happy The Man than for the video games, although I am plenty fond of both. The combination seems to make a more potent memory trigger than either alone. Strangely affecting for me. Both the song and I are from the generation of the earliest arcade games and home game systems in your video. I also have some homebrew music videos of my own here.
Los demás mediocres de latinoamerica ni conocen el grupo. Penosos.
