Famicoman Posted June 8, 2005 Share Posted June 8, 2005 Theres that one Simpsons episode where they are stranded on an island, and Bart wants Martin to make a Coconut Nintendo. Or in King of the Hill where Bobby and Peggy stay up all day to play each other in pong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zonie Posted September 15, 2005 Share Posted September 15, 2005 http://www.gotfuturama.com/Information/Cap...apsules/3ACV18/ Futurama where Fry and General Pac-Man have to fight the Space Invaders. Space Invader: "We have reached the end of the base" Space Invader Leader: "Then drop down one level, reverse direction and increase speed" Best 10 minutes of television ever, next to maybe "Cowbell" sketch from SNL or the Rick James episode of Chappelle's Show. 829293[/snapback] "Cowbell" was A Riot!

DEBRO Posted December 22, 2005 Share Posted December 22, 2005 As for classic arcade games, there is a scene in Bustin' Loose where the kids sneak off to an arcade. They show them playing a racing game. It was either LeMans or Sprint 4. I do remember the game being in black in white. Recently on Everybody Hates Chris, Chris' friend Greg invites him over and they play his Atari 2600. Here is synopsis...http://www.upn.com/shows/everybody_hates_chris/shows/ep10/.I think they were playing Asteroids. In the Christmas episode when they ask each other what they're getting, Greg mentions he's getting a Colecovision. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
telengard Posted December 26, 2005 Share Posted December 26, 2005 (edited) The RUSH video for "Subdivisions" features Tempest arcade. "Nowhere is the dreamer or the mystic so alone Subdivisions In the high school halls In the backs of cars Be cool or be cast out" 831312[/snapback] I just saw this video the other day on VH-1 Classics. What a great video (and song). I saw a video also for Sheena Easton (can't remember the song) and she takes what looks like a brand new Defender and Sinistar and throws them off a balcony. Some others I can think of that I don't think have been mentioned: Robotron 2084 in 'Better off Dead' A few standups in the video 'Legs' by ZZTop ~telengard Edited December 26, 2005 by telengard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dones Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 Haydn, I am not sure if this counts, perhaps as a reverse gaming/tv reference. I was channel surfing today and catched a glimpse of 1985's scifi movie "Explorers". It shows a very young Ethan Hawke talking to some cheesy looking aliens. One of the aliens looks awfully a lot like Fester Blatz, the World O'Wonders store clerk from (yet another oldie) Space Quest III. Now who took the reference from whom? lol Here are the pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Brasky Posted February 1, 2006 Share Posted February 1, 2006 'The Osterman Weekend' features Colecovision Cosmic Avenger early in the film. 'Breakdown' shows a kid play Jaguar DOOM when Kurt Russell sneaks into the house near the end. There was that whole episode of 'Square Pegs' where one character becomes addicted to Pac Man and Father Guido Sarduchi has to perform an exorcism on him.

EricDeLee Posted June 4, 2008 Share Posted June 4, 2008 Star Castle shows up quite a bit in these shots. Kind of cool. Not sure if it was mentioned, the American Pie spinoff (Beta House) has a great shot of many many systems in the Nerd Frat House. It has them all behind glass. There was even a vectrex!
