Q*Bert Talk

Since they included a knocker for sound, maybe they should have included an apparatus for smell as well. In addition to the knocker, the 30V could have also activated a bellows or small fan connected to a cartridge based air freshener that would blow out the scent of your choosing. I'd choose 'vanilla', you'd choose 'fart'. Kind-of like an on-board Glade Plug in.

How about that pickle smell in Sponge Bob 4D?
 
so that'd be a smello yellow upgrade then :D

So I played Cubes on my Doyle/Widel/Spaeth 8 in 1 multi last night, got my highest score to date, 59,000, proceeded to input my initials, pressed P1 & 2 to have the score written and saved, came back to Cubes, HS gone. Dammit.

I've always liked Q*Bert. Local arcade at the mall had it BITD. One guy even did a marathon there for charity. I don't remember how long he played, but it seems like it was over 30 hours before the machine quit. My mom took my brother and I down to see him play for awhile. I also had it on the Atari 2600, and my cat loved to try and catch Q*Bert as you bounced him around the screen :D I never was real good at it, but recently I've been able to get around 400K. I got to level 9 and cleared several levels after that. I agree with you guys who hate Sam/Slick...they sure have a knack for coming out just as you are about to clear that last square and totally screw up the whole board.
 
Ahahahaha, how long ago was that already? 3 years? 4? Thanks again mein freund.

Will you stop talking German to me !! :(

:D

Yes, that Q*bert had my name on it, but alas, the transportation across the big water was too much (hassle).

Glad it found a loving home though....and there is still a tiny chance I will once own one !


Man it looks sweet.......drool ...........that picture hurts man, it also has a PP cockpit behind it.....I found one of those some time ago in the very South of France, but once again, picking it up or having it transported from there would have been WAY too pricey so I had to cancel on it :(

O well, still happy with the machine I _did_ found so far....

It's the only continental European language I know. Also, in America, German is known as the 'Dirty Language'. So in essence, are you asking me to stop talking dirty to you? Can't do it, it's in my blood. Doesn't matter if you are Dutch, Deutch, Danish or Italian, I will be hurling German phrases sprinkled within mostly English statements at you. I am helping to make Americans everywhere look good. BTB, what the hell is wrong with you Dutch? All my Danish friends speak German.
 
It's funny, this quote was exactly true with me. I hated the game for 25 years until I finally played one again:

Yep! I didn't play it but a few times because they were always really short games. I could never adapt to the diagonal joystick.

But yeah, I prefer other people to talk dirty to me :p
 
I heard there's another Q*bert thread out there trying to compete with this one? I take exception to that. @!!#%!!@!!ing bastards.
