STAR WARS TRILOGY ARCADE - COMPLETE PLAYTHROUGH

Ойындар

I posted this video to bring all of you, a little bit of joy and nostalgia, during this sad era of boring and downright bad Star Wars movie sequels, mediocre video games, and TV shows, (except the Mandalorian of course which is good but not great...not yet but it tries hard), in order to help us remember that there was a time not too long ago, when developers took good care of our iconic movie franchise. They threw everything that was great about it, into their video games. It also shows that, what still works even today, is that this game portrays and lets you play through all the iconic scenes from the old trilogy. Its still a short but fun and thrilling roller coaster ride from beginning to end. This is still one of my favorite arcade of all time to this day, along with Star wars Atari 1983. Sadly this game was never ported to any console or PC. So the only way to play this today is through emulation. So here it is enjoy ! - Star wars trilogy arcade almost perfectly emulated on supermodel3 version r614 (with some minor sound issues unfortunately). Again this is an «almost» perfect playthrough of the game, on easy with twin triggers enabled, running with the new3dengine = 1 option manually entered in the .ini file, so you now see the Endor moon in space on the death star II level at the end. Enjoy !

As the years went by I saw the aging graphics of the on-foot levels, but not that of the spaceship ones. I remember studying the imagery in detail, thinking it was picture-perfect and wondering how they could have achieved that. And now, I see the graphics for the level they really are. I'm just surprised, I mean I remember really studying some of these scenes closely. :) I guess it all really is just based off of what you normally are familiar with. Thank you for sharing this!

    They had this as an arcade game on the cross channel ferried between Dover and Calais where I used to work back in the late 90s. We used to work 15 days of a month at sea and it turned out that if you could prove you were out of the country a couple more times a month, then you could claim all your income tax back at the end of the tax year. So I'd take a day trip to Calais twice a month (on top of my working days), buy a chocolate bar in the port and keep the receipt. And on the journey back and forth, I played this arcade game. Constantly. (didn't need to see the rest of the ship as I worked on it!) I remember that it cost £1 per life and I ended up being able to complete it, after lots and lots of practice, in £2. Still the best Star Wars game imo.

After the initial thrill of playing "Wii Sports", it seemed like they mostly used the motion as a gimmick, or to prop up very minimalist, simple, boring games, and I remember thinking the whole thing had been a mistake and they should've just focused on making a new 'regular controller' console. What I never considered, though, is that they could've used what they'd built to either adapt for home console, OR commission sequels etc to the countless classic arcade games out there--"Star Wars Arcade" just being one among countless greats. I mean, "House of the Dead Wii", anybody? Shit. Wasted opportunity.

    I beat this game in the arcade. it took $34, i had to have people help run singles to get more quarters for me. had a standing ovation when i finally beat it. Realisticly it was probably 7 dudes more happy that they could now play then on me beating it. either way, felt epic... wish they didnt cancel this port for the dreamcast

    This game was legendary, one of the best arcade games of all time, as a young Star Wars obsessed kid this was my favorite booth to see in an arcade. Kids would gather around to watch each other play. I remember how hard it was to target with that spring-loaded joystick constantly pulling itself away from where you wanted it. But not frustrating, just incredibly fun and the perfect blend of difficulty. Wonder how many tokens I donated to this machine over the years...

    I loved playing this in the arcade! Especially when you are going down the Death Star trench. That moment when you heard use the force and the two big red buttons lit up, good times. We used to go to the same place every year on holiday. The big arcade over the pier had this game. Every time I went I got further and further. I used to have £10 to last me the whole arcade so I only ever used a couple of quid in this machine. I remember I few people behind me watching me when I completed it. I was so happy but I still couldn't wait to play it again. The year after when we went the machine was gone. I was sad it wasn't there but I was glad to have spent time playing it.

    I remember playing the trench run in Rogue Squadron back in the day and it was nothing like how it was, even compared to this. You flew down the trench, but then you had to make 90 degree turns every so often, which defeats the whole purpose of the trench running the equator, then the guns never stopped shooting... and it was just a mess. At least this got the right idea. Also, the Hoth run: "That armor's too strong for blasters!" *blows up the AT-AT cockpits anyway*

    It's probably my nostalgia talking but this is probably one of the best arcade games to come out and one of the best Star Wars games as well. The actual cabinets came in a variety of sizes and builds but the best version was always the one where you sat on a cockpit seat with loud speakers, a huge CRT monitor and joysticks with vibration and locking mechanisms. It really made the whole experience immersive. All the sound effects during the on rails sections and the lightsaber mini games actually making your joystick feel like you're deflecting blaster bolts or locking lightsabers with Darth Vader (16:56 the part where you have to block Vader's downward slash in particular felt really good to block.)--it truly is a blast to play and I insist if anyone manages to come across the arcade cabinet to play it. I spent who knows how much money or hours playing this arcade game in my youth and even now I still haven't had my fill.
