Video Power (Season 2) Stupidity

[krispwnsu]

"The video power skateboard. The only one of its kind. Until we get a new one tomorrow."

[vtec407]

I played Castlevania 3 on this game show, ended up being the runner up. Look for the asian kid

[Donatello97]

Listen to all of these nextgen kiddies saying Johnny is on coke....lol man you guys have no idea what the 80's or early 90's were like. The gaming scene was "woa in your face" completely surfed out at times and extremely over the op colorful and i for one fucking LOVED it. Johnny is portraying the exact same vibe here in host form.....Kids today have it so bad haha, everything is so soccer mom-tame, uncreative, ordinary and restrained nowadays. The 80's and early 90's were amazing.

[25com36per]

Too much crack!

[TR9O]

Oh man. Favorited. So much win.

[Jaistar2k22]

I want to go back in time and do blow with this guy, then play ninja gaiden.

[crazymiles]

Can't stop laughing at the bowl-cutted nigger dropout at 1:28.

[dreday56]

Cocaine's a hell of a drug!

[SBaby]

This is what would happen if Pinkie Pie hosted a game show.

[Poweredbygamerscom]

Brings back memories.

[RyanRightN0w]

Keith Apicary is better

[AsgardianMight]

0:32 he sounded FAAAABULOOOUUS :3

[TKnHappyNess]

2:30 Johnny fail. Alucard is Dracula's son, not his father.

[SBaby]

@TKnHappyNess We know. That's why it's funny.

[Spynmaster]

Rather watch this than the drama-saturated reality TV we have anyday.

[WNESonANR]

This man is my new Jesus.

[Chitownrunthis]

LOL Johnny arcade is awesome i dont care what any of you say the guy was having a blast on a crappy show whos contestants were nerds

[Ivansprofile]

I think I've seen this guy sitting at the corner of my neighborhood Liquor Store begging for change.

[kylvin318]

This is retro GOLD!!!!

He's like Robin Williams... on speed. And that kid got every question wrong. LMAO!!!!

[DXSnakeEater]

This is why you don't do drugs kids. You'll get severe ADHD, ask stupid questions that anybody could answer, and the people who answer the questions have down syndrome.

[jonblast]

It's hard to believe the host of this show is the hardcore druggie/gangster in the first season of Brotherhood.

[sagat4]

Some seriously drugged up kids

[jinxedmodder]

It burns

[cMARVEL360]

1:28 that's the most dynamic bowl cut i have ever seen in my 22 years of life. ROFLMFAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SilverAxe13]

4:00 Host: "For 10 points, name the type of animal Batman named himself after."  Kid: "Joker!"

BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[hellwitlife]

@SilverAxe13 Lolllll.....wtf???? oh man, he must've got teased for that!

[ZechsMerquise73]

@SilverAxe13 That kid is, even today, watching that clip over and over again. It was all going so well, how could he have missed that one? Poor guy :(

[BabyJesus607]

She don't lie She don't lie She don't lie COCAINE

[alexdovalle10]

Thank God, we din't had this shit in Brazil.

[LoppinHeads]

this is proof how retarded people were in the 80's

[ShadowDwellerXXX]

3:06-3:10....wtf epic dance to flute music! XD

[thefacelessmonster]

@ShadowDwellerXXX

I think it's from the NES game "The Immortal" Maybe the very first room.

[thefacelessmonster]

@ShadowDwellerXXX

...the flute music, I mean. Not his dance, haha.

[yam83]

Fcking RAD

[berkeleylawyer]

Arcade was genius! Like a young Robin Williams, but funnier.

[kirakreep]

i hear the kid in 6:02 saying "Is full of ..." (interruption of johnny, angry face and preparing the slap) Don't!

[TheloniousKeys781]

@kirakreep I'm pretty sure he said "What the hell?"

[FCEngine]

That's it. You should hand this video to the Gregory Brothers/Schmohoyo and get it auto tuned!

[Shackille]

Stivi Paskoski has come a very long way. LOL!

[NeoTStyle]

A RINGWORM

AH HAHA

AAAAAAAH HAAHRAGRHAAHRGAAAA

[VideoQuestEx]

Hosts back in the 1990s for TV shows like this, seemed to either be trying to create a whacky personality for themselves, or they may have been following some script to act silly.

Maybe TV producers back then, thought it would somehow all appeal to kids watching it, I dunno.

[Neodekapon]

2:46 ,cue lex luthor,(WROOOOONNGG!)

[TreasureChestReviews]

"For ten points, name the type of animal Batman named himself after" *BZZZT* "Joey" "JOKER!" "uh, sorry, thats incorrect."

That was a sad moment in TV history.

[kbrinks]

He looks like Billie Joe Armstrong

[MrPresidentFox]

What do you call a vermin that drops in quality the more it's used?

A TAPEWORM, AHAH HAHA HAHA

[015Froggy]

Terry: "You do drugs, you lose"

and boy did these motherfuckers lose their fuckin' minds..johnny arcade was blitzed before every show..WORD!!!

[jdivision91]

Got as far as 2 minutes, that's WAY too much caffeine for me :/

[Guernicaman]

Whatever he's on, he gave it to Charlie Sheen.

[HereticSeraphim]

This man scares me to my very core.

[mexicanwaluigi]

4:20 "these two have been giving each other meaner looks than Nancy Reagan gives the woman who wrote her biography" wait I just heard that?!

[kbs1212]

BUST A GAME!

[dropdedjames]

Yeah, in reference to the subtext on the video referring to the way the show is portrayed and the way Jonny Dickwad acts, some like me (born in 82) might remember the general theme of advertising (especially videogames and kids stuff) in the late 80's/early 90's. Everything was "in your FACE!" and "to the max!". So you see a lot of dramatic camera panning into a hosts face while he does something "crazy" like make a weird face or karate chop the air. Kinda silly to look back at, huh?

[zyliss3]

wtf alucard isn't a dad, its the other way around xD

[015Froggy]

@zyliss3

oh..my bad..i keep forgetting that's non-canon..oh well..it is an interesting concept though

[LRMaylott]

I miss the 80's!

[Cakerolled]

Finishing up his Quaalude stash left over from the 80s clearly.

[evilmasterstudios]

Yeah Johnny Arcade may have been a dorkier 90's character. But It's not good practice to hate on your own childhood. So I'll stop here.

[Mundane05]

What's the kid say at 6:03 that gets repeated? Sounds like "that's fucked up"...

[Causalspark]

I bet this guy got laid 10 times a day.

[reivenlocke]

This guy pissed me off something royal 20 years ago.

What pissed me off most about it was that they never played any 16-bit games even though the Genny had been out for over 2 years when this was on.

[sephious159]

vhs conversion, i see the over scan...

how did you manage to still have this tape? omfg

[blkplaguelmc]

lmao i wonder what happened with that kid who didn't go to school.

[cantz007]

this guy is mad az!!!!!!!

smart humor hope he comes back to tv :D

[neddx]

@cantz007 He was on Law and Order recently

[cantz007]

this guy is mad az!!!!!!!

[Lazera]

lmao at :31 WTF XD

[thrasher956]

awesomeness! thanks for uploading.

[TuxedoRay]

Any1 couldve hosted this & I wouldve still loved the show. Prob cause of the NES. But still way 2 much JA for me. XD

[RetroVGamer]

He was so high when he was making this show lol!

[killerb255]

Wow...I never realized just how high Johnny Arcade was back then! He wasn't on cocaine--cocaine was on Johnny!

[speedskate2010]

hey, it's vanilla ice!

[prettymeanscowl]

Cocaine,Pizza,and 16-bit games were a winning combo for any junkie back in the early 90's

[neillholley]

how long did you spend compiling 7 minutes of clips? I think everyone here would much rather you spend the time to just upload entire episodes. Is youtube really going to take down a forgotten game show?

[lojik98]

Yeah when I was young I loved the hell out of this show. Now I'm thinking I was on drugs too.

[ViolentPTheSkarecrow]

I wish/wonder if some of the contestants on his show were around here on YouTube and could give some like, personal insight as to what it was like being around him during those tapings.. >_>

[longliveoakenfold87]

The game structure itself looks good on paper, but you need to get the proper kind of personnel on board. Namely, anyone that isn't the coke-induced Johnny Arcade (or Stivi Paskowski) Hell, Terry Lee Torok, the damn co-host could be more competent to host

[thcsabinad]

that guy is a retard... or on drugs

[tar1982]

This show was so interesting to me as a kid. Every weekday at 5:30 A.M (Winter) or 6:30 A.M. (Summer) before school.

[um09dndam]

oooohhhh....i remember this show, this where they have a game where you have to grab as many games as you can and stick it on your self and such, hahahahahahaha, this is so frickin old!!!

[IceChateau777]

WTF! Either this guy had secret stashes of cocaine in his vault or he drank about a whole 2-liter bottle of diet Pepsi Max.

[jrlynn79]

He was coked up, its obvious

[83survivor]

He heard that kid saying, "What the Hell?" at 6:05...? Pretty funny.

[monkeynomonkey]

Wow, nostalgia is never as good when you actually look back at what you remembered.  Oh Stivi Paskoski...

[AvatarOfGames]

he must do alot of coke before the show

[6Adrian7]

black kids not in school? 1:38

[kevineatworld]

Johnny Arcade is a tweeker

[journeymanX]

Hmm, Johnny Arcade vs AVGN

[ViolentPTheSkarecrow]

@journeymanX HELLS YES! That would be the square-off of the decade! Johnny Arcade VS. AVGN...OMG

[luwuhl]

he's completly mad

[yourwronghereswhy22]

i just knew i was gonna go on this shit when i was 9 or 10

[Arrowdance]

ROFL! Johnny Arcade is a jackass! XD

[Vexed34]

I hated this guy when I was young. I STILL hate him!

[ChiefSavageMan]

I think the TF2 scout was based off this guy.

[VikutaaChyaaruzu]

@ChiefSavageMan

If the Scout's on Bonk! Atomic Punch, then yes. That, and Vince Offer, a.k.a. the ShamWow Idiot.

Johnny Arcade and Vince Offer... now I will never go to sleep just thinking about it.

[simpleplanfan011]

This guy is bonkers! |:

[RossIrving]

I am completely disoriented!

[pandafresh]

may I ask what the fuck i just watched? haha

[MustBe18YearsOrOlder]

holy FUCK i totally misapprehended this; this is INSANE... and i'm loving every second of it

funniest part to me is 3:46

[MustBe18YearsOrOlder]

hahahaha! this reeks of the 90s!

sometimes i miss it cause it was a fun and silly time

[OkSka]

0:35

SHA NANANANANA NA NANANA NANA BATMAN

That one always cracks me up

[OkSka]

Holy herds of cows I get a kick out of this stuff. Don't get me wrong, cocaine is one hell of a drug, but it's more entertaining than say, American Idol?

[IceChateau777]

cocaine is one mighty drug...

[RobotBadger]

I'm surprised this guy was not assasinated.

[SoundsandSportsVCP]

Is this the Shamwow Guy?

[NeoTStyle]

This is so hard to watch...I feel violated.

[FCEngine]

2:20 nice beatboxing

There was one Johnny Arcade moment I nearly broke the tape rewinding and playing cracking up at, and it's prolly out in the great unknown now: Contestant got the video question correct, Johnny handed him a copy of Days of thunder and the Game Handler accessory, he accidently dropped his prizes and Johnny flipped out all frantic screaming "PICK IT UP! PICK IT UP!!!" like it was a bomb lol

[TimNP61278]

wow... I certainly missed out on a lot in season 2 didn't i? LoL!

J. Arcade: You're parents Winners?

Kid: No. [big smile] (epic win)

[fawazr]

These kids weren't the prime-time-ready, attention whores that kids are now, so they weren't going to do anything to keep the show lively. The only way to keep things lively and entertaining was to have a host who didn't mind making an ass out of himself.

[NapalmNewt]

That dude owns so hard, he just snorted coke and had a grand time every day.

[hypokineticfilms]

that ilttle kid at 2:30 should have said "alucard is dracula's son you meth-head"

[dementedwallaby]

SHUNAnunnanaanunaanununanaaaa.­..batman...

[AgentMidnight]

I have never been more sure that this host is a crackhead.

JUST GOT TO GO TO THE BATHROOM AND SNIFF SOME COOLAID POWDER

[molonlave2010]

The 90's sure ruled

[sugoidave]

I remember laughing at this when I was kid when he'd pick all these crappy games to stick on them. Every once and a while there would be a decent one though.

[AiRwOlFe23]

One word: RITALIN

[meltdown4500]

WEERRRD

[princedavid0]

Wow that Nash skateboard was awesome! I had an orange skateboard from Nash when I was growing up.

[RockEsper]

I love that man with all of my heart.

[fluffyman85]

The kids look very embarrassed to be around this guy.

[NintendoManiac2010]

I made this video back in 2007 and uploaded it on my old channel, which was eventually shut down by YouTube.

[1983parrothead]

Correct. I preserved this, just in case if you didn't bring this back up.

[kazen2]

6:03 "What the hell?" Says it all.

[shadowwolfz]

@kazen2 exactly, the kid's answer was correct. It happened more than once.

[Fryon25]

Sure, he had a lot of "sugar" for breakfast.

Also I never knew Dracula's father was named Alyoocard. Huh.

[longliveoakenfold87]

@Fryon25 He wasn't, Drac's the father, Alucard's his kid.

[CLQE]

0:16 I bet the kid is still in a mental institution.

[BigBangBlitz]

So right, for all the wrong reasons.

[iressivor]

So epically bad, it's hilarious.

[theswitcher]

It's almost as if the producers of this show were waiting outside an asylum and just grabbed the first guy that was released, and made him a TV host.
