Pretty sure "tuna diver" is euphemism for cunnilingus Which makes sense, considering it was originally going to be "MUFF DIVER". |

Not sure if its been mentioned yet but the virtual arcade in Pinball Hall of Fame is actually based off Ground Kontrol in Portland, OR. Right down to having a bar in back and pinball machines up a flight of stairs.

Do you mean the BOB control panel, or the quiz show thing? Either way, not really an arcade. I wanted to point something out about DKC2. In the entry for DK64 you imply that the cabinet in Monkey Museum is the Donkey Kong cabinet from DK64, but if you look at the side you can make out the letters KI, showing that it's a Killer Instinct cabinet. You can also see a row of KI cabinets in the map screen for Krazy Kremland (inside the tent marked "KI here", might have to zoom in): .png) |

About the Pinball Hall of Fame ones... The PSP/Wii versions of Gottlieb Collection have a different layout to that of the other versions, as these added new tables, with the arcade machines removed, in its place being things like jukeboxes and such. The PSP and European Wii versions still kept the loading screens from the original versions, still showing the Mojo! machine and such; the much later North American Wii version changes them to match the new arcade.   As for the Williams Collection, here's an album with all of the machines that can be spotted, from the Wii version. imgur.com/a/3qFWWThe later released PS3/360 versions have an additional room, so someone would have to check if there's any additional machines on any of those versions. |

That Space Quest one is already in the article, on page 1.

Anarchy Arcade is amusing for folks who are into designing areas, though the selection of pre-built buildings to use is a little limiting, IMO, and the arcade machines are simple launchers that run their respective games fullscreen anyway. Cool concept, if impractical in the long run. Nowadays we do have New Retro Arcade, which is a similar concept, if slightly more limited (you can't actually place machines, only change out what games they play to a limited extent), but the upshot here is that you never leave the arcade to play the games; they are actually rendered in their respective cabinets and use the same controls as moving around. There are random Game Boys lying around, even. |

drpepperfan: D'oh, whoopsie me! weasel: Ah, touche---although since Anarchy Arcade is running on the Source engine it has a HUGE amount of Workshop content and Valve game assets that are compatible with it. New Retro Arcade looks tailor-made for emulation and digital simulacrums of physical games (bowling, etc.) whereas Anarchy Arcade looks aimed squarely at Steam users. Both are good in my book, though!

Midway/WB's Game Party series has, as scenery on a few of the minigames, fake arcade machines strewn about, although a few have a screenshot from San Francisco Rush in them, oddly.
Its Wii U installment, Game Party Champions, takes it even further by having real Midway/Atari Games stuff in there... which is sadly not playable.

Regarding the 1st page of the article:
Is...Removing Hall of Light's watermark from a screenshot by them a good idea? I mean, I don't know their story nor this site's reasons for lifting the watermark but I'm just worried about unnecessary skinny dips in hot water, if you get my drift.

It's repairing damage done by improper archiving. Their watermark has no more legitimacy than a coffee stain on a magazine scan. In fact, it's worse because they caused that damage intentionally.
We give them credit for the screens, which is more than watermarking sites deserve IMO. Watermarking is a stupid and egotistic practice and needs to die.

I don't mean to sound critical, I've just been in a lot of circles where there were copyright concerns about digital content (like posting translations of comics from Pixiv elsewhere---some Pixiv artists don't mind, others threw fits), so I was just feeling cautious. |
