Can you do a history of the North Dartmouth, MA Chuck E. Cheese it’s a pretty famous location

Here's an interesting fact: for a brief time at Northridge they had the Avenger Photo ride but with the updated cameras system. I don't see a lot of people talk about it so idk if it was Northridge exclusive or this happened at other stores too

it happened at other stores. There must have been a stock of Avenger photo ride statues so they just put those on some of the new photo rides instead of the rockstar statue

Agreed!

The Helen Henny ride existed, I swear. Why does no one ever talk about that ride?

I haven’t set foot in a Chuck E. Cheese since my 8th birthday, but I have fond memories of going! I still have some of my photo ride photos! I can’t believe they got rid of the tokens!! I didn’t know about this until this video but the tokens were such an iconic part of the CEC experience! Nothing like begging your parents to pay for the staff to refill that paper cup of brass coinage. Made you feel like a baller as a kid. Fat stacks of doubloons!

I miss the tokens, as a kid I would stick my fingers under some of the machines and find many tokens. My dad would cut out Chuck E. Cheese coupons from the Sunday paper, and I would make those tokens go a long way [with the help of looking for tokens as well]. I also miss the mascots who would throw tickets .. or were they tokens? The nostalgia this video brought made feel so happy. Thank you.

I grew up in Topeka and had no idea there was a distribution center there. We didn't have the Avenger ride version that looked like he was pregnant or anything like that. Our "ride" was just a straight up photo booth where you could sit inside and it would take a picture and pretend Chuck E was drawing your picture, and had a pencil sketch filter of sorts on it. The other hosts didn't have any involvement in the photo booth. I don't know how common it was since it wasn't touched on in this video but I don't know, if the Avenger rides were overproduced in Topeka, you'd think that the Topeka location would have one of them. I haven't been to that location in years so I don't know if they still have that photo booth set up or not. I do think they waited a long time to remodel though. Potentially as long in as not remodeling until around 2019-20, so maybe that's why they were never given one

My local upgraded to the "newer" Rockstar photo ride (the 2019 version with the color printer and the rockstar voices) a long while ago (i dont know exactly when, but i do have a pictures with it, although i dont fit in the actual car anymore i just stand behind it), my local also upgraded to the rockstar ticket blaster when they remodeled to 2.0 last year. They had the old Rockstar photo ride version from before 2019 I believe if I remember correctly (it's been a long while and I'm young so some things I can't remember all that well). I think it it's funny that the Avenger photo ride released in 2012 yet that was when Rockstar came out (they could have done it years earlier), also i don't think i've ever seen an original photo ride with yellow sweater chuck (i've only seen Avenger and Rockstar photo ride versions, and those are the two Chuck E.'s I've grown up with, mostly Rockstar since he's been around since I was 5)

Fun fact : c.e.c 79 debut Chuck-E-Cheeses restaurant

The amount of black and white photos i have on this thing

this is the most obscure kiddie ride to do a deep dive on i love it

Not only that they made a Chuck E Cheese car ride but they also made a Helen Henny car ride from the 90s

This is a really interesting video, but I have to say I was distracted by seeing that "Kiddie Coaster" ride with Cedar Point themed rides! I had no idea something like that existed until I saw a photo of it, that's pretty cool!

Somewhere my mom has all the photos we took, every trip we had to get one and we had the whole family get in the frame to get everyone there for memories.

Another greatly done video I was waiting for this video for a long time thank you man!😀😀

I love this kind of videos! Keep up awesome work, sir! :)

So interesting! I grew up on early 2000’s Chuck-E-Cheese and went to the Paducah Kentucky location multiple times as a kid!

17:25 as in the photo you can see that there a big chuck e cheese plush on the train ride behind him you can see big Freddy plush behind the big chuck e cheese plush

I didn’t even know half of these existed!!

“Hi, I’m Helen Henny, you’re an excellent driver! The car noises in the background: car crashes.

Great video! I love this ride.

i love this kind of video, thank you for making this

Atari ruled the late 70s and early 80s. I got an Atari 2600 for Christmas in around 1982 or so. By modern standards, the graphics were primitive. But it was all we had ever known at the time, and we had the most fun ever.

KZread loves to find me new special interests and now I have a special interest in Chuck E. Cheese 😂 glad to have your account to dive as deep as I can into this

Great job! Really enjoyed the video.

Cool vid just one thing, if Bob West and Carissa McKinney were the original voices for the ride, they did it during the January ‘94 show tape meaning the voice actor for Munch would actually be Duncan Brannan. It sounds a lot like his version of munch too. Doug Teal voiced Munch the second tape of the year, when a whole new cast was hired except for Duncan Brannan remaining as Chuck E. Cheese

Never knew any of this about the photo ride! This was fascinating!😁👌

my very favorite ride i used to ride it every time I went to my local cec

I wish the Chuck E Cheese In Lafayette IN location kept their cool Chuck Photo ride

you just unlocked a core memory omg! i wonder if my parents have any of those old photos hidden somewhere

Greato Video! Also i still have my pic of the old Chuck E. Car ride when my location, Blackstone was still in phase 2 i believe. (My other location, Shaw Avenue has the avenger chuck photo ride which is pretty rare nowadays)

i love that bowling for soup is involved after 2012. i also just found my picture, its from 2003 i was 4 yrs old (my mom dated my pictures bless her), wildly i dont really remember it. i want to go back and get another photo, 20 years later.

27:30 you forgot to mention that the Guatemala store still has the cool chuck photo ride

Give this man a million subcribers

This video is great! But I'd suggest not stopping the music every time you fade to black. It gets a little creepy!

I went on it once. I blinked when the photo was taken

Exactly what Nathan spies would do Great job Chatty Chuck E 😊😊😊

I think the thing the proto avenger statue was holding was a helmet, and he was wearing a racing uniform.

Sounds like the original photo ride has two different Chuck voice actors. The opening and closing lines were Duncan, but the voice that plays from the Chuck button sounded like an earlier voice.

The prototype one where chuck e looks pregnant looks like he's supposed to be in an racecar driver's outfit holding a helmet. That's my guess.

Somehow, my brother and I never went on this ride when we were kids. *Adds this ride to list of things she never experienced or had in her childhood that were popular*. A couple of years ago, I did two non-ride Chuck E. Cheese photo ops/booths. They had the color photos.

The prototype Avenger ride scares me (my local Hialeah had it till 2021 or 2022 when they got 2.0 with a full rockstar car with voice branding and design)

My local used to have the yellow sweater one before replacing it with the rockstar one around 2014/2015.

I remember this ride and remember taking several pictures with Chuck E., wished I saved those photos but oh well at least I still have the fond memories.

The PTT vest was an alternate outfit until 1995, so thats why the ride had his vest in the 1994 version.

I wish they included more of the other cast in the photo ride besides just their voices.

The older photo ride printed the pictures on thermal paper, which makes them notorious for fading over time

Cool I was excited

12:28 I remember that location it’s the Hobart/Merriville but it’s close to Merriville so whatever but I still remember that ride but unfortunately they replaced it :(

The 1995 one is not familiar with me it was always the avenger Chuck one

I’ve gone on the yellow sweater one once, avenger 1-2 times, and every other time was rockstar

I think we all have photos taken on this iconic car ride along with the black and white filtered pictures, in fact I have photos from the early 2000's of infant me along with the Cool Chuck version of the ride. I actually have a lot of photos taken of me as a baby or child at Chuck E Cheese in my house but this was one of the more memorable attractions there. Maybe you should make more videos about the Chuck E Cheese reskins of existing games and rides and the history of the most nostalgic ones.

My mom still has my photo ride picture of me when I was four and I remember taking the picture too. I miss those days.

I think I remember my childhood chuck e cheese photo ride as the 1995 version with the purple and green “avengers” paint job, but since the photos were in black and white and this happened decades ago, it’s hard to recall.

Once I noticed the place on most of the classic statues where the edges of the open mouth meet the edges of what looks like it should be a closed mouth seam, it's so hard to ignore. Like he's going :-)D Chilling stuff.

prototype avenger ride he is holding a helmet maybee it is to look like it is for the kids ik you said do not comment but i think it may be a possibillity

I mostly remember riding the Avenger version of this Photo Ride, as well as the classic one.

I grew up before the avenger photo ride was replaced, it is 10x better then the rockstar one

9:21 found a KZread video touring the location after the 2.0 remodel out of curiosity. It seems that it has been switched to the rockstar version unfortunately

Something i find weird about the rockstar ride is that all avenger renders have rockstar's head on avengers head

I’ve never heard the rock star audio before tbh (only the music though cause avenger used to use it at some point)

I remember the photo printer printing in individual lines leading to the very grainy and sometimes of set photos of the 2010-2012 photos

I thought Chuck E. was holding his helmet.

bro the car just crashed in the audio💀💀

I know a lot of the cars still used the same avenger audio (With Jeremy Blaido) whether they had avenger or rockstar

man when i was a kid i used to go to cec every birthday and i remember taking a picture on the original photo rides what i would give to get a picture taken on one again

I still remember when Fairfield CA had theirs, until theirs stopped taking photos, and the fact that the lights were stuck on.

Interesting, I have a few pics on this ride somewhere ♥️😮

My local has a rockstar statue but has the early 90s audio and my vocal is Hicksville New York

Can You Do History Of Chuck-e-cheese Themed Kiddie Rides?

Man I remember seeing that kiddie photo ride I was a kid at Chuck E Cheese I rode on that with my bro and sister. ❤

Guess what I'm looking at this version of the Kiddiy ride of the Avenger version of chuck e cheese. Then it went to Rockstar at my local chuck e cheese

I think the munch on the original photo ride was duncan but idk

I noticed that one of the Chuck E Cheese statues had cat eyes.

Sadly my childhood location didn't have one of these until I was too big to fit in it. So I never got to get a picture with any of the good ones, and I don't want to get one with that cringey Rockstar Chuck one.

I still have my CEC photo from 2004, though it’s not from the photo ride as the Chuck statue isn’t there and the border is different. It’s the one where the photo looks like a black and white sketch. For the longest time, i thought that photo was from this very ride.

Most of the dialogue of the longtime actors is reused such as helllen and Chuck e va

Cool video but you should edit the black pauses in between. I kept thinking my phone shut off and it kind of throws off the video.

I remember this photo ride. Sadly my pic is so faded. Not even sure I still have. Which is sad.😢

You know, some of the avenger audio photo cars plays that annoying siren sound when it’s not in action. When I was little, photo car at my Chuck E. Cheese’s in Louisiana at Baton Rouge had a rockstar looking Chuck,but had the avenger audio & when it wasn’t in action, it played the siren sound that used to scare me only when I was small, but it doesn’t scare me when it became the year when CEC gave away tokens and used them as credit cards because when it did that, it had the same things but didn’t have that siren sound anymore. Then in 2020-now, it looks the same but has the new rockstar audio. It just mixed up.

i haven't seen this Chuck E Cheese thing in probably yrs i had a photo of me being on this as a kid :D

I vote Chatty Chucky E for CEO!!!

aw. ❤ fond memories. i dont get the same feeling from the new versions of the characters.

The c.e.c 79 on the machine probably means “chuck entertainment cheeses 1979”

Helen chuck e. cheese OR BUST ride exists and also a Jasper airplane ride.

I'm sorry at first I didn't know that Avenger chuck on that ride was holding a ball? So I thought he was pregnant or had a strange lump in his sweater 💀
