    Looks like they are trying to find a working arcade machine for a movie they are producing, which is very much based on this game.

    EDIT: I take that back, this game never did really exist.

    Any working version? Does it matter if I produce the PCB in my garage and program the EPROMs tonight?

    My feedback thread, since it seems somewhat difficult for people to find.

    Ah if only it was a real arcade game from 1982, which it is not.
    Like anyone reads the rubbish in the signature.

    Yea I just realized that. So many arcade games I thought perhaps it was real, but then when I looked in my book, it doesn't actually exist, lol..

    So it's a mockup cabinet then.. I think this is an advertisement, as the game shows a kid playing it and the main antagonist is missing from the game. Maybe that's what's inferred here, the game is broken cause the character is missing.

    It is very good viral marketing though. Normally viral marketing is some stupid crap aimed at the thick shits of the world.

    heheh, yeah, if the web has taught us anything it's that there seems to be more idiots on the planet than normal people. Especially those who comment on the likes of YouTube.

    That movie is going to be awesome!!!
    I'm surprised they got the license to have a Bowser-esque character!

    I think so. There's also Altered Beast final boss. There also a monster that looks like Shuma Gorath and the yellow robot seems to be from Cyborg Justice.

    Edit: Comparison pics: http://segabits.com/blog/2012/06/06/...eggmans-cameo/

    Also saw a glimpse of Paperboy at 1:49 on the trailer.

    Still, Clyde as the meeting chairman makes me laugh every single time. Specially because of his accent.
