Cliff Hanger 1983 Arcade Game (Level 1 Robbing the Casino)

I created this video at http://www.youtube.com/editor
This is the first Level Enjoy!
Cliff Hanger was a laserdisc video game released by Stern Electronics in 1983. It used animation from the anime series Lupin
III, mostly from The Castle of Cagliostro and a couple of scenes from Mystery of Mamo. Like many laserdisc games, it's a
reactive type game which required the player to press a button or move the joystick in a particular direction when prompted by
the game to progress the storyline.
The game's plot does not come from either of the films, and instead involves "Cliff" (who is based on Arsène Lupin III)
rescuing Clarissa (Lady Clarisse d'Cagliostro, the bride from Castle of Cagliostro) from the evil Count Draco (in some
materials called "Dreyco", and in the instruction manual "Dragoe"), who wants to marry her.
The original version of Cliff Hanger had an animated sequence of Cliff being hanged at the gallows immediately following the
"miss" animation sequence. The sequence was taken from the opening sequence of Mystery of Mamo (where Lupin was supposedly
hanged in Transylvania), plus a later scene in the same film. According to the instruction manual, a setting on the game
cabinet's logic board would allow the individual owners/operators the option of not playing the sequence if they so chose.
Cliff Hanger remains a highly sought-after cabinet by collectors to this day. Because it was released as the novelty of
laserdisc games waned, many cabinets were destroyed or converted over time.

I DO NOT own the rights to this game no copyright infringement intended for entertainment purposes only!

Sorry about the quality It's not the greatest.
Hope you enjoy this as much as i did wish i could get an original arcade machine and play it once again like i did back in my
local arcade thanks for watching!!

@loomp why u keep responding to me yeah I "realize" this crap I know about Daphne and not everyone does this is y I posted it here on YouTube responses like urs are unnecessary!

[deadkitn]

@vozpit other 5&6 now unblocked just had to cut them in parts !

and i think the helicopter chase may be from Mystery of Mamo but im not sure.

[loomp]

@deadkitn You do realize the Daphne emulator has the option play all movies without having to even play this game at all. Also this game has scenes from the Lupin III movie Castle of Cagliostro, but what was the name of the other Lupin III they put in this game and has it been released on DVD too.

[loomp]

@JapaneseMonsters14 This game includes footage from another Lupin III movie (not done by Studio Ghibli or Miyazaki) besides Castle of Cagliostro but I can't figure out what the name of it was. Like deadkitn here I used the Daphne emulator here (with the play all movies option on) but I did lay eyes on the Arcade cabinet many years ago before anyone knew what Lupin III was or anime even was.

[loomp]

@deadkitn Well Cliff Hanger does have a dip switch setting like Dragons Lair and Space Ace did that allowed for ever scene of laserdisc from the Levels to the Deaths without even having to play the game and I believe the Daphne emulator has the option to set dip switch setting like MAME does just letting you know, of course you can always watch the two Lupin III movies they used to make this game. I never got to play this in the theater I saw it at since Laserdisc Arcade games always broke

[JapaneseMonsters14]

Its a really cool game.....also known as Castle of Cagliostro by Studio Ghibli ...a Miyazaki film

@homeofthebadguys Secret of Mamo is the US & UK release name. Mystery of Mamo is the original name. Look it up on IMDB.
