Lets Remember...Smash TV!

Smash TV has always been an instant classic with me... gotta play it when I see it now. Hell, I even finished the NES version (dual-fisted rectangle NES controllers of D00M).

And why was the sequel D.O.A.? Tonight on Unsolved Mysteries...

I thought the sequel was Total Carnage, wasn't it?

what a bunch of younguns we are, we should be talking about robotron :)

I liked smash tv a lot. I still play it every time I see it at an arcade.

I love the Arcade Party Pak rev of the game. The ability to use two joysticks is just too good to not love to death.

Right, and I only saw the machine like ONE time in my life and it sure didn't let an impression out of me or get a quarter out of my pocket. (hence my labelling it DOA)... it was like completely different. What happened?

I only played it a couple of times, but I remember it being okay.

It had a very military type of feel I think, and it lost the "gameshow" campy type of aura to it.

I totally agree on barely ever seeing it. I believe I saw it in two arcades my entire life.

"BINGO!"

You had better believe I love this game, part 2 in the Eugene Jarvis dual controller trilogy. Simply put, this game is god like.

As for Total Carnage, I feel bad for any one who missed out on this one, it's with out a doubt one of my favorite acrade games ever made. If Midway ever releases another compilation disc, I hope they include this game, because it would be orgasmic with the dual shock.

Wow, how many more cheesy quotes can we remember from Smash TV? How about:

"I'd buy that for a dollar!"

Goddamn, I love Smash TV.

Edit: way too late. Oh well, Smash TV still rules.

Ahh, I remember all the quarters I used to waste on this thing playing it in the arcades with friends and relatives. Good times :)

Go! Go! Go! Go! Go!

I have the SNES version, and it is easily one of my favorite games for the system. There used to be a Total Carnage arcade cabinent at a local skate center here in Tennessee. I pumped in a few quarters and left unimpressed. I saw the SNES version at Funcoland for $5 a while back. Anyone know if it was a decent port? I'd like to give the game another change sometime down the road...
