Jack Danger streams hybrid Pac-Man/pinball gameplay from Schaumburg arcade.
Baby Pac-Man is from Bally Midway, manufactured around 1980-1981
high confidence · Jack states: 'This is a monstrosity that you don't really see that often from Bally Midway around 1980, 1981.'
The high score on the machine (236,000) was set by a technician working on the game, not a legitimate player
high confidence · Technician admits to Jack: 'that was me working on the game. I was flicking switches and stuff.' Jack notes the technician should have cleared the test score before allowing it through.
Baby Pac-Man is notoriously prone to breaking/being busted
high confidence · Jack states: 'this game is notoriously one of those, like, it's always busted' and the arcade manager confirms 'this game breaks a lot.'
Spelling TUNNEL on the pinball playfield speeds up Pac-Man in the video portion
high confidence · Jack explains: 'spelling tunnel on the right here...spelling tunnel on the right speeds up your Pac-Man.'
The game can be 'cheesed' by repeatedly hitting the spinner for consistent scoring
high confidence · Jack discovers: 'There's a spinner over here with a frickin' baby on it...we could easily take the high score on this just by cheesing this spinner all day.'
“This game is a pain in the ass...the most awkward-looking setup I've ever done. We'll never screen this game again.”
Jack Danger@ 1:00 — Sets tone for difficult streaming conditions and game complexity
“You let that go through? You allowed that? All you had to do was turn the game off. You don't let a test score go through to the high scoreboard?”
Jack Danger@ 4:30 — Addresses scoring integrity issue with technician test score remaining on leaderboard
“I hate Pac-Man so much, dude...This game is broken. Burn it with fire.”
Jack Danger@ 22:09 — Expresses frustration with Pac-Man portion difficulty
“Extra baby was lit, oh my god! Are you effing kidding me, dude?”
Jack Danger@ 16:40 — Excited discovery of 'extra baby' mechanic and its value
“Why do you even care that there's, like, what is the point of going through the tunnel faster? At all. Ever. What's the effing point?”
Jack Danger@ 26:07 — Questions the design logic of certain game mechanics
