BEWARE ALL SPIKES!

They have it at barcade in the WB. It's the classic vector game.

Did you find $7 all together or like $5 and then $1 and then $1? It seems kind of odd to find three bills together.

'Doomsday' vault design unveiled

http://newsimg.bbc.co.uk/media/images/42551000/gif/_42551989_seed_vault_416.gif

The final design for a "doomsday" vault that will house seeds from all known varieties of food crops has been unveiled by the Norwegian government.

The Svalbard International Seed Vault will be built into a mountainside on a remote island near the North Pole.

The vault aims to safeguard the world's agriculture from future catastrophes, such as nuclear war, asteroid strikes and climate change.

Construction begins in March, and the seed bank is scheduled to open in 2008.

The Norwegian government is paying the $5m (Â£2.5m) construction costs of the vault, which will have enough space to house three million seed samples.

i've been there a few times. so bummmed 6 months ago, the tempest machine was there but it was broken. is it fixed yet?

― the kwisatz bacharach (sanskrit), Friday, 9 February 2007 12:48 (seventeen years ago) link

Qix was less a game and more an art project. It was really weird and didn't make sense but was still kinda cool because back that you didn't get to draw large rectangles on computer and TV screens that often.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 13:52 (seventeen years ago) link

what? it was a game with rules just like any other

― am0n (am0n), Friday, 9 February 2007 14:24 (seventeen years ago) link

The game has been ported to several cell phones.

Death Race should really go in nerd bummerz, since it's one classic arcade game that can't be emulated.

Tempest is available for MAME, I'm pretty sure Qix is too.

― Edward III (edward iii), Friday, 9 February 2007 14:56 (seventeen years ago) link

Death Race can still be found at the Museaum Of the Moving Image in Queens.

Tempest shouldn't be played in MAME unless you have the right controller. Like how I can play marble madness because I use a trackball.

what? it was a game with rules just like any other

I'm sorry, but when you're 9 years old and that's the only video game that works at the diner and you're with your parents waiting for a table, that shit didn't make ANY sense.

AWESOME. You hit pedestrians they turn into little crosses what more do you need?

True. It's near impossible to have a satisfying game of Tron.

qix is chuck eddy's favorite arcade game

does the Museum Of the Moving Image in Queens have a Spy Hunter machine? i always look for one when i'm in coney island.

― the kwisatz bacharach (sanskrit), Friday, 9 February 2007 16:34 (seventeen years ago) link

I don't know...I didn't fully check it out. They used to have the whole history...now the really old games you could never play anyway(too rare, like Space War) are upstairs in the museum and downstairs they have both video games, including Star Wars, and some home consoles. It's crazy, because my girlfriend works at museums, she gets in free, so we go there and can check out the exhibits, some of which are fucking amazing, and watch a movie (most recently...X: The Unheard Music, which was fucking amazing) and play games, though you have to pay for them and I haven't had the time to.

Barcade in williamsburg had a Spy Hunter, I think.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:22 (seventeen years ago) link

I wonder if someone has made a website where you can find arcade machines by location?

MILLION DOLLAR IDEA JON RETIRES IN 2008

― Edward III (edward iii), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:34 (seventeen years ago) link

Barcade was my idea. During the dot-com boon I was like, "i'm gonna open a bar that's gonna have 80s music and vintage arcade games and all the dot com geeks are gonna love it because they can play dig-dug instead of talking to girls and I'm gonna call it Barcade". Then 4 years later it opened in Williamsburg...friends were calling me like "hey, is that your bar?". Nope. My other idea was an obvious one...a movie theater in Williamsburg. It's being built right now.

― Dan Selzer (Dan Selzer), Friday, 9 February 2007 17:35 (seventeen years ago) link

Yea, I was thinking something like Yelp.

Also would be cool = a program that would OCR cameraphone shots of high scores

There's a pinball database for DC/MD/VA, and I'm pretty sure when I was looking for it once, I stumbled across similar sites for video games

Of course, such a system would eventually fall victim to the fact that such communities degrade in their usefulness to the quality of their worst members

Didn't work for ILX

― Edward III (edward iii), Friday, 9 February 2007 19:24 (seventeen years ago) link

When I was interviewing at Kenan-Flagler in 95 (HI I'M OLD), one of my friend's sisters worked at 411 (italian restaurant) on Franklin with 2 of the guys in Polvo (not Dave or Ash). One of those guys had opened up a vintage video game arcade that served alcohol and fixed the machines to take nickels and dimes instead of quarters.

I wonder if that's still around.

I think that was Steve, the bass players project. Hi I'm old, too.
