He was asked recently on one of the VGO podcasts if he's done with KZread. He said he's not done so clearly has lost the passion to create videos for now hence the long break but I have no doubt he'll be back.

Thanks for all the fun vids John. We greatly miss you. This channel used to be my highlight of every week. The hours we spent along with you on all of your projects.... great fun man. But we understand passions change, hobbies dwindle, and life gets hectic. Thanks for all of the great times and hopefully we see you post again. If not, we hope you are doing well in life.

I've never clicked so fast before. Just seeing the drone shot was well worth the wait. This video is gonna be epic EDIT: HE DID IT BOYS THE POPCORN MACHINE HAS FINALLY BITES THE DUST

Finally a new video! I've had to go through your old videos, again! ;) Best channel on the interwebs. Please don't stop making videos :)

Instantly clicks thumbs up before watching. Great to see another vid. Thanks. [edit] now watches opening and wishes I could add more thumbs up. Great quality funny intro John.

Nothing like the free ball loud knock/snap sound. You can hear that sound through a full arcade in full effect machines going off crazy and you still hear it across the room. Cool table for sure. The light work is awesome.

Video came out great John. It was good to see you and hang out with "Jay and crew". Thanks for the shout-out to my channel. By the way, one of the guys unlocked a "classic" Black Knight mode while playing. It changed the graphics on the monitor and all the sounds were of the classic game. We were all like, "Holy Crap! That's so awesome!". We couldn't believe it. Great pin!

Good to another arcade video, can't believe I missed it and only seeing it now. I must have not seen in in my feed when it was uploaded. The popcorn machine skit made me chuckle, I was wondering what was going on.

This table looks amazing. The original is one of my all time favs.

I literally just stopped working on my dk , dk jr, Mario’s bros three in one cabinet just to watch this video!!!!

Thanks John. Really a nice video

I used to come home from Sunday visits of my parents (or just from church on the Sundays when they wanted to be alone) with the excitement that there would be a John's Arcade video for me to sink my eyes and ears into! Ahh... I miss those days.... 😢

I didn't know what I was missing out on you have great energy, I could see you having your own show on Netflix. The year-end reviews are my favorite, getting to see everything in the basement catching the history and the personal connection to each of the machines and what you invested into them for time or money or love, thanks for creating all this wonderful content. Over 47k subs is a great accomplishment Hope to see you back at it soon.

At first I thought I was watching an ad. Then I looked for the timer and skip ad button. I thought, what's going on here? Great video John!

You should do the arcade 1up reviews before the quarter scale ones. Looking forward to seeing that paperboy video though! Glad to see you again John I hope you enjoyed your well deserved break lol

Don't know what Johns situation is or why the videos have stopped, hope all is well John, your channel has been inspiring, entertaining and a butt load of fun to watch. All the best mate.

I came to see if any new videos have been posted recently only to find the last video post was 10 months ago!?! WTH... LOL!

It’s been a year to the day since your last video. I’ve always enjoyed your videos. I binge watched the Journey restoration. I forgot how interesting that one was. I really do hope you revive your basement/garage videos. Even one video a month would be awesome. Anyway, just looking forward if/when you put out more videos. Even a John’s Kitchen episode would be fun to watch.

Impressive overflow

This seems to be a love/hate machine. Thankfully I love it and play it at the arcade any chance I get.

That Black Knight pin looked great. As far as the reviews question at the end goes, think about which ones are easier to do videos on so you can get the videos out quicker. Something like a 1UP is going to take time with putting it together and filming that whole process. Something like the Pacman is just a matter of taking it out of the box and would be a lot less time.

A great way to turn off your arcade machines is to use a Remote Control Outlet Kit. That is what I use and you just push a button on a remote to turn on and off the machines you want.
