Now that's a lineup!
there is a very cool documentary about Midway Games called Insert Coin that is completely free on YouTube right now and it's a pretty fun time if you have an hour and some change to kill
Anyone looking forward to the upcoming MK Legacy Kollection by @digitaleclipse.bsky.social should check out "Long Live Mortal Kombat: Round 1" by @davidlcraddock.bsky.social & "Insert Coin" (@insertcoindoc.bsky.social) by @joshuatsui.bsky.social. The latter is free to watch. youtu.be/7zx5GunyUS4?...

Thanks for this relic @insertcoindoc.bsky.social ! Will keep this masterpiece forever in my collection. Watched this documentary when it came out on the first day and is still one of my favorites to this day 🤍
Wait, people are shocked that playing against AI opponents in arcade games is brutally hard?

Glad you got one, but we have a much larger run than 500 disks!
Just finished watching the Insert Coin Documentary by Josuha Tsui, wow good documentary and didn't know Ed Boon was getting almost burnt out by working on so many Mortal Kombat Games.
Now i want to play The Grid even more.
Too bad WB Games only cares about MK and Batman most likely
Folks it’s been A Week of Movies let me tell you #LastFourWatched
This isn't even a controversial point, it's just how capitalism works. Like, in the documentary Insert Coin (about the heyday of Midway arcade games) there's a bit where the head guy says he couldn't make the developers too rich or they'd leave.
The 1990s was the peak of the popularity of sports video games. At the time of the Genesis' release in America, the ads put great emphasis on sports titles. Insert Coin, the documentary about Midway Games, is apt to point out how NBA Jam revived interest in arcades as much as Mortal Kombat etc.

You can watch the full Insert Coin documentary on Youtube now for free and I highly recommend it. Great insight into the wild days of Midway and general 90s arcade/game development back in the day.
The Insert Coin documentary is now on YouTube in its entirety and I would recommend it wholeheartedly. Genuinely one of the best gaming documentaries I've ever watched www.youtube.com/watch?v=7zx5...
This is your semi-regular reminder that
Savant's amazing soundtrack for Insert Coin is here for your listening enjoyment! www.youtube.com/watch?v=JC_H...
We really should do Bruceploitation when other actors die, like Tom Cruise.
The Jedi prototype was sent to Lucasarts towards the end of Studio Gigante's existence. Unfortunately our runway was short so the team (and I) eventually got absorbed into EA. Then about a month after that, Lucasarts contacts us to see if we were still available 😜
Thank you for all your support over the years!
