You are right about virtual-on,, the Xbox controller does it no justice. I find even the Dreamcast version, which does emulate well, controls god-awful with the use of only one thumbstick. The Dreamcast does have a twin stick controller but good luck at finding it or for a fair price😅 but still looking forward to hearing more about my SNES ASCIIpad in the intro.

Virtua Formula was made for the pneumatic Full Motion Cockpit version. It does not have 16:9 because it used a 50" 4:3 Rear Projection TV for each Player. Most were later converted to Indy Formula (Upgraded Indy 500 for this cab) Sadly most were parted out in the early 2000s and eventually retired and replaced with the Super Deluxe Outrun 2 (Worked for Sega for a while in their Arcade Division)

That’s fascinating! I used to visit a large arcade in São Paulo, Brazil, that had 8 of these massive Indy 500 machines - and never understood why the cars had such different colors or the decals didn’t seem to match the game until I learned that they were likely converts from Virtua Formula. Sadly by the mid 2000s most of the pneumatics stopped working and they were eventually retired - by Outrun 2 SDX machines, of all things. These took up a lot less space, but the screens weren’t as impressive as the original rear projection ones. I can still hear the “DRIVER CHANGE!!” yell from O2SDX in my head, haha.

It's crazy how well Model 2 and Model 3 stuff holds up today

CPS1 video from Sega Lord X and now this video from Game Sack… it’s like you guys knew I was at my local arcade today… it’s been a damn good Saturday.

I'm really sad new generations won't have the arcade experience we had. Playing arcade games with graphics we could never dream of having at home was incredible. Recently I managed to run the Model 2 emulator or 4 PCs connected to LAN and play Daytona USA with 4 steering wheels, it was a BLAST for the hole family!

The fact that Sega hasn't released all these games on a compilation disk for modern consoles is mind boggling.

Man, Daytona USA is so much fun playing it in Manual, the way you drift by turning the wheel fast and then counter it on another direction while gear changing to Gear 1 and the Gear 3 & Gear 4 couple of times.. When you pulled it off, you'd feel like a badass.. so satisfying

Model 3 games running on an emulator upscaled to 1080p+ still look great even today. I'm really hoping the next episode will be on the Model 3!

For Virtual On just use Model 2 Emulator 0.9 and you'll be happy again. Dual joystick support is limited in the last (1.1a) version of the emulator because it doesn't accept 2 inputs simultaneously

It's historical to note that Virtua Formula was designed with 8 players with motion controlled cockpits. There were at least two arcades in the world that purchased this option from Sega to create setups that occupied an entire room.

90s Sega games had such a vibe. Those Sega blue skies will forever hold a special place in my heart. The funny part is, I played very few of these back in the day, but nonetheless, they still feel magical. Arcades were my happy place, and just like my happiness, they seem to have gone away forever.

a lot of these games are more about the arcade experience, the physical presence of the machines, the unique control set ups and atmosphere more than the games themselves which are still pretty good

SEGA was the king of the polygonal arcade experience. They had an unmistakably big, loud, and over-the-top feel.

I would love to hear more about this!

I wanna point out that Motor Raid does infact have a home port however it was only an emulated version of it in Judgment and its sequel Lost Judgment as a game you could play in the ingame arcades. Indy 500 also has a conversion of it on the R-Zone which I'm sure is very much an arcade perfect port of it on the headache inducing red and black glorified calculator.

I love Model 2 games.. so colorful, FUN and most run at 60fps... pure gaming bliss. SEGA!

Clumsily is indeed a word, and you used it right :) Clumsy is the adjective and clumsily is the adverb. "The game controls (verb) clumsily" vs The game's controls (noun) are clumsy"

It’s always shocking how good Virtua Fighter 2 looks. A generation and a half ahead of it’s time.

I love that you included a supergun tutorial at the end for people who want to play on a real pcb. The only things people should know are that many games have free play settings, or you can add an "insert coin" button rather than needing quarters on-hand. I use 1" 4-hole white buttons you can easily find at Wal-Mart in the craft department.

Arcade nostalgia from SLX and Game Sack on the same day. I'm in heaven! Now to go play some of these on my Steam Deck.

Seeing the Virtua Fighter cabinet for the first time is one of the very few arcade room memories I can still recall. A couple others are seeing/playing Space Invaders, Simpsons Pinball, and Dragon's Lair, so I hold it in high esteem. The cabinet was so shiny and futuristic looking!

I love me some Model 1 and Model 2 games. Yeah, I had played a few combat flight/space sims (especially loved those from Microprose) and had played arcade Hard Drivin' once, but Virtua Racing was a whole 'nother level of cool. And, then I fell absolutely in love with Virtua Fighter. And, then Model 2 games were just that much more amazing. Daytona was so, so much pure, raw fun. The same for Sega Rally, VF2, etc. Not Sega model 1/2 related, but I do love the quick cameo from Rapid River in the Sega Water Ski footage. My friend was absolutely obsessed with the only cab of that we had of that around me at the time. I didn't quite love it like he did, but it was certainly a pretty neat cab. That was the first, last, and only cabinet of that I've ran into. It'd be cool to play that again.

Back in the nineties, I worked for Toshiba UK LTD. I'm based in Plymouth UK. Part of my work was on the assembly line for Toshiba Rear Projection big screen TVs, which were a thing before cheap big screen plasma, and finally LCD screens came along..I mention it because we used to build the Sega Arcade screens for UK arcades. We had a machine set up as a tech demo on the production line, which showed Virtua Racer when I started, and was changed to Sega Rally by the time I left.

Motor Raid is playable in Yakuza spin-off Judgement and Lost Judgement through Club Sega. I think the arcade emulation is done by M2.

Great video! Loved the way Model 2 games looked. The graphics and frame rates were so snappy and smooth. Also, the fact that the games were in medium resolution (EGA in arcade terms) made them POP!

That ending skit was great, caught me off guard!

17:01 Motor Raid was included as in-game arcade you can play in the game Lost Judgment (2021), but I guess that didn't count if we are talking standalone home release.

Had a great time reminiscing. Thanks Joe :)

Top skater was awesome. Playing it at the Florence mail back in the late 90 brings back memories. It was loud in the arcade trying to do all the tricks on the built in skateboard.
