  1. Wow pretty much all of them are needed on my list, except for the Sopranos one I already had! The 40 Year Old Virgin One I've seen, but I think they're playing a Mortal Kombat game from after 2000. Nice additions!!
  2. Thank you!! Lol no I'm just adding it as a reference to the original intellectual property, Super Mario Bros for NES in 1985. Movies entirely based on games I add that way, like the Super Mario Bros, Double Dragon, Street Fighter, Mortal Kombat films from the 90s. Unless there's more references to other SMB games in the movie? Like I said, I haven't watched it yet. I know in the Double Dragon movie there's a scene where they're fighting around arcade games and I caught the titles of a few of the cabinets and put them as references.
  3. @RH @Reed Rothchild @Link @Friendsfa35 @AirVillain Guys, rest assured I will be adding your submissions to the list at some point!! And I appreciate the enthusiasm! Just have been preoccupied with work, home life, etc. This is still a passion of mine that I haven't gotten around to updating in a while. Believe me, this time last year I was working on this non-stop. And there's of course a huge addition to list, a little film called "The Super Mario Bros. Movie" which ended up becoming the most financially successful video game adaptation EVER in less than a month! Lol (no spoilers, haven't watched it yet). But seriously, this list and other lists I've done on VGS mean a lot to me. Feel free to list more additions you come across and I will get them added eventually.
  4. Thanks Casual!! Whoa, you got me there, I'm not familiar with those artists. I'll check them out. Hmm I have a few audio samples in hip hop, do you like just the vocal samples, or music/sound fx too? The Super Mario Bros. beat for Cocoa Brovaz Super Brooklyn is, in my opinion, the best flip of the sample. Sounds like they loaded every cool SMB sound effect/background music into an MPC and pushed the buttons in the most sonically pleasing way lol. Kanye West FACTS has more SFII vocal samples. Madvillain (MF Doom & Madlib) Do Not Fire! has SFII vocal samples too. Cage Grand ol' Party Crash has those eerie vocal samples from the Sinistar arcade game.
  5. Yup the episode is called It's Only Pretendo. They were being conscious of the major role video games were having in children's lives and started the season off with the babies playfully fighting over which games to play on their TV. They also play Keith Courage in the episode
  6. Nice!! I totally didn't come across this one. I'll add it for the next edit. There's a couple other cartoon episodes I have to get to, Futurama Raiders of the Lost Arcade and South Park Imaginationland has some video game characters. I just wanted to get this list public because I'd been holding onto it for long enough lol
  7. Looks better to me! I'll put them on my local list, I'm not sure how soon I'll update the post but it'll be there when I do
  8. Thank you!! Any additions of retro games are totally welcomed. Yeah that one I think I just have a video clip, I try and get as best quality screenshots as I can. I check justwatch.com to see what streaming service offers a show, and I guess NewsRadio is on FuboTV? Which I don't have lol. If your photos are better quality than the video listed I can add them to the list?
  9. Lol my goal is to have a database to refer to whenever you watch something. There's a few sitcoms where they just get an arcade cabinet for whatever reason? They get a Pac-Man in Taxi and a Ms. Pac-Man in a later episode of Friends. Plus you got the Seinfeld Frogger episode
  10. Yeah you're right the only other movie people mentioned between those dates was Sleeper by Woody Allen in 1973. A couple places claim Computer Space is in the movie, but I made a point of watching the whole thing through and could not find it myself.
  11. Yeah Monster Shark I saw on this Atari Age post actually, and the OP said he saw it on MST3K lol. That's a good question, I generally tried to only include visual references because they're more fun, but MST3K does have a place in my heart and they don't usually watch movies that came up after the video game era lol. I saw a bunch of iMDB Connections with video game references on the show, I think they mention Yoshi a couple times? Are the videos of the scenes easy to find online? Because I couldn't take a screenshot. I did include one dialogue reference from Billy Madison where Adam Sandler argues with a kid whether Mortal Kombat for Genesis or Donkey Kong is the best video game ever
  12. Oh wow this one's fun. He's playing at a Tempest cabinet, and you're right it's AD&D for Intellivision gameplay shown. But the close up of the joystick/buttons is some other arcade cabinet that I'm unfamiliar with! I'm gonna write this one up. I see Robotron: 2084, Jungle King, Dig Dug, Donkey Kong, Star Castle, and like you said Armor Attack in the background. I've never heard of this show before! But Bob Saget is always welcome on this list.
  13. Does anybody recognize this side art from The Terminator (1984)? People in other lists have said its Asteroids, but I haven't found any cabinets that look like that online. Maybe it's a smaller space game I haven't come across. Also, Teen Wolf purportedly has a Centipede in it but I have to watch the whole movie through to find it couldn't find it scrubbing
  14. Oh man, I still have a bunch of arcade games in movies I couldn't identify yet. There were A LOT of arcade games released in the early 80s
