Honestly I want JJ Abrams as far away from Speed Racer as possible, dude can't write to save his life.

i think parts of the metreon really tapped into the zeitgeist of the time but unfortunately it was more of a caricature than a genuine attempt to be at the cutting edge of the future. hard to say if something like this at scale could ever really be successful- even in a tech hub. regardless, it was a futuristic wonderland in my eyes and i had some really special times here with my dad as a kid playing hyperbowl and going to the discovery channel store. a far cry from the sf of today. thanks for making this video, it brought back some good memories

This was a really cool concept! I remember it being kinda mind blowing as a kid.

I didn't realize the n64's analog stick was announced first, but sega's came out first

Man, I remember figuring out how to play Demon On Wheels when I must have been like 4 or 5 years old, pretty sure I figured out how to play it on my own as well. I feel incredibly lucky to have experienced playing that as it really jumpstarted my love for racing games and Speed Racer as a whole

I have one I rock my Dreamcast on it, and watch DVDS on it. It has it's charm to it.

its cause since then kids cant aim with out aim assist back in 2000s analog stick were crap now 2024 better quality makes it like aim bot with aim assist its why it should be removed from games

We were poor growing up. My mom worked 3 jobs to care for 6 kids without government assistance. She managed to buy me a PS2 the year it came out. She couldn't afford much else, so every game was something I'd rent for a few days at a time. Only got the opportunity maybe once or twice a month. Almost directly after Christmas, our house was robbed. Took everything of value. TVs, Stereos, random things and my PS2. My mom worked hard, she tracked down a lot of what was stolen at local pawn shops and bought some of it back. Most of it she had to just buy all over again. I had to wait about a year to play the PS2 again. She managed to scrape some money together for a SNES between then and gave me her tiny TV she kept at her desk at work. I played F-Zero a lot during those days. Anyways, after about a year later we managed to get a PS2 again and I had been wanting to play Kingdom Hearts. I have a lot of great memories just sitting on a stool playing Kingdom Hearts on this tiny TV. It was in black and white, I had no memory card so I had to keep the PS2 running for the 2 days I had Kingdom Hearts. I played Destiny Island so many times. It wasn't perfect, but damn... I was thankful I got even that much. This TV was the exact same one I played Kingdom Hearts on. It made me think of those times. How hard my mom worked, how much we all collectively compromised. It was an important time in my life. Anyways, years later after I got a proper TV, memory card and both Kingdom Hearts 1 & 2 to actually own. I played through Destiny Islands for days when I was home sick from school. I leveled just past level 80 before finally moving on to Traverse Town. Still can't get Wakka's "waah" out of my head from those days lol

Mine has a different Av port Uses six and it wont work lol

God I had so many good memories of the Metreon

Great video! Awesome dissection of the franchise. Besides the music being too loud at parts.

Hey did you use just normal rca cables to game ? My ps1 cables aren’t fitting they seem either too small or something

WTF how does this still have 12 comments

Used to play n64 on one these as a kid

Where the wild things are was the place I went all the time as a kid the last time I was there was in January 2005 right before they closed and it was a shock to hear they closed literally a few months later. From this day I still miss it with all my heart and I don’t think I ever will get the closure from that place because I still miss it very much.

If it ever gets a new game it has to be based on the 2008 movie

Mine doesn’t show full screen you know what might be the problem? I connected it to some av cable but it’s not the original one

I swear I remember a top down multiplayer speed racer game, where players can upgrade their cars. Possibly on tye snes

Very informative, amazing 10/10

Imagine some guy modding it and beating eldenring no damage

That quote sure was something

HELP ME! HELP ME! WTF!

How the f### would you hold the last one😊

lol this is hallarious hope mikerowesoft wins the case

I really wish they would put Evolution back in the Xbox store (or PS)

potentiometers...the worst thing that happened to controllers

Keep making videos 😊

PlayStation anal

Speed Racer. One of the best cartoons ever apart from many others. Including my personal favourite… Albert The 5th Musketeer.

Great video lost.saint. This is your best video by far.

I miss going there

I watched a video talking about these portable TVs it seems they where some of the last crt tvs ever made since they where produced in the late 2000s they where mass produced and sold very cheaply some of them had color but some dident

I bet Bill Gates wants to rename himself to mike rowe

Just a quick note about Trials 2, the series' actual first time in 2.5D was the full Trials 2 that came out for PC in 2007, which the Flash version is actually advertising. With a different looking rider, sounds from the Flash version, tiny differences in the level layouts, and just a portion of the levels that SE had (16 instead of SE's 40). It shortly after got updated to the Second Edition and the 2007 Trials 2 got almost erased from existence.

Recent history is so poorly documented.

i have this buy mine doesnt have the yellow white things wtf

Beautiful style of video/audio, thanks. I create historic game videos too and i understand how hard is it. As for Speed racer; looking at these footages the game might be interesting only to japanese kids, so no much regret about it loost in the time.

We need speed racer 2 movie ???

You doing a nice job of making those lists, nice narration, a quick review, great video buddy, keep it up

lost.saint - the Project was too Expensive, and shops & Restaurants sold too Expensive FOOD & items. the overall Facility had poor Security & theft was Rampant . place was UNSAFE , not good for kids. prices in Stores was too high , I could go to Radio Shack or Comp USA and get it Cheaper on Market street.

I remember going as a kid miss it unfortunately i really only remember the final years it being mostly empty but the ps store

The Metreon was great. Used to go here after high school all the time. I think 2 things killed it. #1 they never updated anything and there was nothing new to see except a movie. They needed to update the video games, and the kids attractions quarterly or half yearly. I'm sure this was Sony's initial plan and then they saw how much hard work it was. The other issue was Sony and physical media were losing to Apple and they had to pivot.

awesome video bro! i really like sony tech so this place would be a Disney land for me 😅

I cant imagine when burnout haters sees the first game and says that the gsne will only have 1 game,well how about now you fucking haters

Where I live I picked up CATV leak wih my Baofeng and I wonder if tis type of TV could too

great video! thought for sure this had a few thousand views before i checked. deserves more views!

I have a curtis brand portable tv. Although it doesnt have the video input for the yellow cable but still has a video input that wont hold the yellow cable. Is it possible to get something to help me or can i not game on it?

There a time limits imposed on digital cameras for video recording because if the time goes longer than a certain point that is classified as a video camera which is taxed at a higher rate when it’s imported into the country

I remember spending so much time at the Playstation store, even waited in line at that mall to play Halo 3 before release in the IMAX theater. I waited in line from 9am-9pm, so of course I vividly remember how little homeless were around. It's so sad how the city has gotten worse in so many different ways.
