looking good Dave. 1 suggestion when the caption comes up that says Centipede was the first game designed by a woman, you should actually include her name. I hope to have my gameroom cleaned up and functioning in about 2 weeks, so let me know if you like to come over and shot some footage.

Liked Major Tom and "capture" with the Galaga fighter being captured at the appropriate time. Also think the Tron gal is extremely hot. She can stand around my game room all day if she wants to. I bet I could get a lot more quarters in my machines from neighbors that have developed an interest in arcades all of a sudden. Who is Mr "Number 11" guy with the glove and Marble madness? Your music choices are great. Great footage as well. This would be cool to run on a big screen in the arcade room with the music.

thank's komodo
the guy playing marble madness is (Mark Alpiger, classic arcade champion on Crystal Castles, also starred in King of Kong)

Just off the top of my head, if it were me making this I'd add:
1) People who "flip" games to support their hobby
2) A Craigslist feeding frenzy
3) People with games overflowing their garage, house and inside of the home.
4) Interviews with beleagered wives who are overwhelmed by their husband's hobby
5) Interview female collectors (there are some around So Cal).
6) Gene at Vintage Arcade
7) Celebrity collectors (Ben Affleck; etc)
8) Go though a restoration of a classic game and how to find parts
9) Local arcade parties
10) Retro arcades (don't have any in LA anymore, but other parts of the country).
11) Cabinet graveyards
12) Interview some game programmers such as Eugene Jarvis
13) Guys trying to set high scores

Teensy, tinsy, small complaint:
The re-using of the Asteroids footage kinda bugged me. Run a different clip for the second glimpse, wouldja?
lol, right away sir.
seriously ty, i need everyone's input.

Yup, all great ideas. most of them ran through my head already, just doing it and finding time to do it is the question for me at the moment, without any funds and being alone on this becomes overwelming. Thank's for your ideas

Not sure if you're using anything special to film this, but maybe you could have other people conduct interviews for you and film them, for locations/people you couldn't get to interview because of time/distance/money.

You should also interview people who have multiples of the same game and try to unlock the mystery behind it!
