UK - Cab in eastenders has a Shmup in at the moment

kernow · Post by **kernow** » Thu Mar 19, 2009 7:58 pm

I was trying to identify what it was but it was pretty hard to see with only 2 x 3 second bursts.

it was vertical and looked pretty old school, sorta like aero fighters. I'll see if I can dig up a video.

I know they've always had a cab / arcade games in the cafe, but this is the first time I've seen a shootie in there

May I add I can't actually stand eastenders but it was on , so hey

okay ... i might watch hollyoaks, emmerdale, and coronation street. but even I draw the line at eastenders...

i haven't seen it since the whole "who shot phil mitchell" thing

interested to see a vid though. what happened? did arthur fowler get resurrected in the casino arcade? dot cotton putting a few runs in on MMP?

Yes, ian beale sent it back to cave to get it upgraded to 1.5 , dot was counter-stopping it too often.

I have a feeling it was the first Macross shooter. I think we talked about it awhile back and it was the first Macross game (which had a US release of all things).

While in Kerrville, TX on business last year, I went into the arcade there at the mall and they had Zero Gunner. This is the first time I've seen a shmup in an arcade in years. This was also the first time I've ever got to play the first Zero Gunner. It was actually pretty cool.

It was indeed Macross by Banpresto (I've just watched in on iPlayer to check

First time I've watched it in years!).

Quite an obscure shooter to have in East London, really

I hear that Billy is a bit of a beast at Third Strike. He plays a mean Dudley.

someone should take one of the pics from one of the london shmup meet threads, and photo shop in arthur fowler rinsing out ketsui

And Dot and Peggy 'shopped into THE Daigo vs Justin Wong Third Strike video. With it taking place in the Vic.

The game was actually developed by NMK. Too bad it was made by the same people who did Thunder Dragon so it has most of the flaws of TD (which was terrible BTW).

Its been in there a year or more. The previous MVS cab was sold on ebay.

kernow · Post by **kernow** » Fri Mar 20, 2009 1:00 pm

Yeah, I remember that auction , think it had super sidekicks 2 in it .

SuperPang · Post by **SuperPang** » Fri Mar 20, 2009 1:14 pm

I doubt the Beale factor added to the price. If they offered some of Stacey Slaters panties I might be interested.

Stacey Slater's panties. Now I might actually have to bring myself in

.

That curvy blond wife of the mumbling bald fool (Tanya) might have to get some attention too.

There's a good thread here:- http://www.neoempire.com/forum/showthread.php?t=3695
Stacey gets top billing.

The actual Zero Gunner PCB is none other than a Sega Model 2 PCB hooked up to a Jamma harness adapter...it is standard Jamma compatible from the get-go. ^_~
