Nicely done. I hadn't seen this game other than ONCE at an arcade in Houston waybackwhen ... then we stumbled upon one at an arcade here in Iowa. I never thought I'd see one again. Thanks for the tour!
Sooo glad to see you folks bring this machine back to life. I had an opportunity to buy one of these machines in 1998 for $400. It wasn't functional, but it was complete. Sadly, we just didn't have the room for it at the time. The Discs of Tron game was an ok game, but the environmental cabs were so beautiful. Thanks for all the funnies as well!
I just played this at Arcadia in Fayetteville Arkansas. A few of the lights were out but the sound and gameplay were great. Really fun game. Really makes you feel like you’re in the movie. Well, the real world in the movie.
You played it well Todd. This cab is undoubtedly one of the best cabs designed and built among all arcade games, and to top it off the game is fantastic to play, loads of fun ive played this Environmental version several hours. FREE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! What the, thats outrageous! Glad it came back to you so you could finish it. Side note, the movie editing was awesome haha
Me and my family never watched this video together, but we will tonight, because it's awesome and so funny! Thanks Todd for giving us so much enjoyment in "this mad mad world!"
Well another masterpiece by the grand masters. The work you do is flawless. I never saw one of them in the wild but I can say it felt like being 7 again and the excitement of seeing a new game for the first time came back. Thanks guys. I can see you enjoyed restoring this too. Todd never saw you on the light bikes. But maybe we should leave that on the green screen a NO NO!. Have to say for me best episode so far totally went above my expectations. Thank you.
Congratulations on your best green screen to date. An amazing piece of gaming history, combined with the best restorers of historic games. Thank you so much, but what a complicated game! Loved this video! Thanks Todd!
You gave this incredible cabinet the epic video it deserves! I remember clearly stepping into one of these back in 1983 as a 10 year old and being blown away. I think it was even more immersive than sliding into a Star Wars cockpit, would love to see one again one day for a play :)
Zwackery (1984 Midway) also used the same up-down spinner and trigger joystick. I made a mame cabinet specifically to play discs of tron and tron, it uses the original DOT spinner control and is hooked up to a pc and 25" wells gardner monitor. Ive been watching lots of your vids lately and really enjoy your knowledge of these classic arcade games. i like your description of the inside components and how everything works. thanks TNT!
What a great, restore and a fantastic video all around. For those who havent, you need to track one of these down and play it. Its a treat, I haven't played one in decades but the memories are still there. You got great use of that green screen :) for some reason in the end sequence I was thinking, the title music for A Fistful of Dollars would fit in nicely :)
AnalogX64 Thanks! Wanted to keep all Tron music...but with tthe copyright stuff, had to keep many cuts at 30 seconds or less...so I used 4 different soundtracks..three by some gifted musicians that LOVE the Daft Punk track!
Brilliant game and a fantastic video review! Thanks, Todd! It was well worth the wait. I envy the guy getting this game. Hope he enjoys it in good health
** Rubs eyes **...can this be..It's finally done..well you guys are true professionals, if you only release equipment when it's no less than 100% restored. Slow applause of respect.
OH MY GOD Discs of Tron I mastered TRON - I could play that 8 hours on a single token - learned all of the ways to beat it But DISCS OF TRON was my next bump in adolescence MY OH MY I was programming 8 bit Atari at the time - and yet? I RECALL Discs of Tron introduced the Z factor well- the 3-d element. WHAT A PRECIOUS PROJECT TNT I only stopped in because I missed you so much You are so passionate about your work With your skills? You COULD be designing missiles for Lockheed etc, but oh no LIKE THE CHILDREN YOU ARE AT HEART You realize what is important THANK YOU SO MUCH for EVERY VIDEO OFFERING YOU BRING FORWARD Tim Miltz
Nice work. I've only played the regular upright at DisneyQuest, but never the Environmental version. it is indeed quite impressive for 1983 to have a game go all out to make the player feel like if they were in the movie.
DOT is easily in my top five ( Probably 3) favorite arcade games of all Time! I remember playing the environmental one when I was a Tween and my mind was blown 💥! When you got to the 5th or 6th level and used the turning knob to aim up and down I knew it was fake 3D but I was like it’s 3D! 🤩 Know it costs like 10 to 13 grand to own One! 😳
This was the game of 80's games. The environmental version with the voice of Sark does not get any better. Nostalgia to the max. Also one of the most fun games especially if you had the knack for moving the elevation of your thrown disc to the opponent. Really crazy levels as you went along and most of all the interior would light up like a pinball machine the further you got. Nothing ever was quite like this game. Played one in a museum of games years ago but the sound and lighting wasn't working correctly which really drew away from the immersive feel this game had.
Great video Todd :) and well worth waiting for,we loved it. The green screen was really well done!! especially the part with yourself at the bar :) I always wondered where you got your theme tune from and now I know "Wendy Waldman" I looked her up and just heard the song in full for the first time. Thanks for sharing Todd :)
You're right Frank, that footage at 21:10 is priceless! It wouldn't have come out like that even if it was scripted. Might want to give that portion of the video a PG-13 rating just to be on the safe side. Thanks for the laughs gentlemen, livin' is good good good!
Dear Todd, This video is so awesome and I'm sure it did take hours and much energy to film and produce it. Thank you so much for entertaining us with those great and funny videos every day. Keep up the good work and again, thank you very much. Greetings from Rastatt - Germany to you and the whole TNT-Team, Michael
Michael Roll Thanks Michael! Yes...a 15 hour project to make this....but I will never have the opportunity again I think...as so few are left in the world!
Thank you Todd for all this videos, fantastic job & efforts. I Am enjoying them every day and I do remember and have fine memories of many of the game machines that you repair and restore since I am in the same business. Best Regards from Lars in Stockholm,Sweden PS. I hope to join and say hello to you in one of the pinball expos or pinball shows later on Ds.
such a great vid Todd had been looking forward to this one for a long time its great to see it in action and what a beautiful Machine it is all lit up.
Super job on that video Todd. I remember playing this version at Aladdin's castle arcade and it was awesome too. I wonder how many of these actually survive today. It may only be a handful.
Hey just came across this channel! Amazing work that must be the best job ever with all of those guys! I'm trying to fix up my Close Encounters Pinball Machine. It lights up but that's all! Hope I can get it working soon! Keep up the awesome work!
Ha I remember this big contest for Tron - one guy from the arcade went - HA NO Kidding - I could play 8 hours on a single token - EASILY hit over 500k iirc. Same with many games- Star Trek? I could get that thing so loaded down Spocks voice would crackle - Spy Hunter? could play the entire DAY on a single token - limited extra lives on that though I'd finish a game - turn around and see 20 people behind me watching. Wasn't into THAT part- but WAS into mastering these games But DISC TRON ? I never did excel at BUT I really appreciated the 3-d element - that was new. Tron vs Disc Tron? eh- I might have to say- DISC wins - VERY cool sound effects VERY COOL 3-d introduction, as far as I recall - it was the FIRST game I knew that brought in 3-d. Sure it's shrinking things real time to emulate 3-d hahahahah WAY WAY WAY BEFORE OpenGL AGAIN TNT - thank you SO MUCH for what you bring forward. If I ever win the power ball lotto? You know? Even if I sent you 10 million dollars ? SOMETHING TELLS ME you would be doing EXACTLY what you do anyway - why? BECAUSE YOU CARE !!!!!!!!!! And I care that YOU CARE Let's fund some big food buffet or something so everyone can have a good time! I'm unfortunately in WESTERN PA - you're in EASTERN - awe... No kidding - Forget the Liberty Bell- I'd MUCH MUCH RATHER VISIT TNT someday or of course- if you're ever near Indiana PA - you are WELCOME AT MY HOUSE
One other thing, when you use your "pointy" finger I always think of a scene from Cannon Ball Run. "In my particular line of work I seldom need more than this." - Dr. Van Helsing
Todd, is the rear translite a normal plastic translite or is it lenticular like the marquee? I could have sworn it was a massive lenticular translite, but I haven't played a DOT environmental since 1983.
lol the copyright on this must be insane :P love the greenscreen action... and I got my world rally pcb from you guys today thank you for the super service
Love the game. Looks great and well worth the wait. Keep the videos ah-coming. BTW: I was wondering, would it be feasible to replace some of the fluorescents with LED lights?
Hmmmm. I was thinking perhaps the LED lights would be a good choice to reduce any fading or long term damage to vulnerable art work from the fluorescent lights.
really great video. Kinda prefer the original movie. haven't entirely watced the semi sequel true to fun I had some inkling for whatever to watch the end all the way.... ouch thats alot of frisbees :P Todd will have to come up with what to do in that space ;P and Tammy wasn't driving the bike oh that wouldn't made it look odd :)
John McCollum This had a deposit almost two years ago...but since he left the deposit, it has gone way up in price...I would gfigure around 8K nowadays...in this shape.
Ashley Holroyd Originally it did not come apart...but to move it here, we did make it a two piece unit...we shipped it on a long custom built crate...as customer can move it right into his gameroom as its a separate building with no steps!
Todd, curious if you remember the going price of a game like Tron up right back the day new? What was this compared to for the disks of Tron?? I hear a lot on prices of pins but not much on the 80 classics. Do you have any old price invoices.. I know you save a lot of stuff. . Thanks for the great vids.
Matt Einbinder YES!! Tammy and I will be there Thursday afternoon to Sunday afternoon! Will have a booth...just bringing shorts and cartoons! And of course, my video camera!
Hey Todd, the word on the streets is that Bob Roberts is ill and not supplying arcade hobbyists with their orders, but others say he does...You must know him better than most, what's up? Whats' your option of this story?
Bob have heart problems and he do some updates on hes blogg, blogg tells us about 20 hours days and computer problems... homearcade.org/BBBB/status.html u also has hes homepage. so wish someone could help him with his homepage. amazing parts library.
You know I still really want that empty tmnt cabinet. Maybe we could work out a deal, I have a Jurassic park pin that I wouldn't mind trading for the cabinet and some work done on my tmnt pinball. Hit me back. I tried calling twice with no luck.
+coreym76 Tron is a vertical game and Discs is horizontal...so it would pretty much make it impossible using a 19" screen....you could reconfigure it for a 25" screen I suppose....
Beautiful. I lived for this game in the 80s. In fact I lived IN the cabinet. 😊
I would love to get one of these cabinets. Thank you so much for sharing this video. 🤗😎👍
Nicely done. I hadn't seen this game other than ONCE at an arcade in Houston waybackwhen ... then we stumbled upon one at an arcade here in Iowa. I never thought I'd see one again. Thanks for the tour!
***** Thanks!!!

+Nightenstaff Glad you liked the video! Sadly, many got junked over the years! Glad you saved yours!
I remember playing this unit at an arcade near my High School. I'm glad I had the opportunity to play one of the environmental cabinets.
I just played this at Arcadia in Fayetteville Arkansas. A few of the lights were out but the sound and gameplay were great. Really fun game. Really makes you feel like you’re in the movie. Well, the real world in the movie.
One of your best restorations so far. It's insane how much went into the presentation for this game. Don't even think sega ever topped this.
shwink Thank you!! Yes...many hours by all of us for sure!!
You played it well Todd. This cab is undoubtedly one of the best cabs designed and built among all arcade games, and to top it off the game is fantastic to play, loads of fun ive played this Environmental version several hours. FREE?!?!?!?!?!?!?!?! What the, thats outrageous! Glad it came back to you so you could finish it.
Side note, the movie editing was awesome haha
Thank you for commenting!
What a great video. Loved the history behind the cabinet. Thanks for posting.
fourdoormafia Thanks!!
This was worth the wait. It was cool hearing the back story on the game also, it's strange knowing these games once led different lives.
kevinbradley Thanks Kevin!
That is no arcade game that is a precious work of *ART* Wow that machine is Beautiful!
Thanks!
Me and my family never watched this video together, but we will tonight, because it's awesome and so funny! Thanks Todd for giving us so much enjoyment in "this mad mad world!"
Well another masterpiece by the grand masters. The work you do is flawless. I never saw one of them in the wild but I can say it felt like being 7 again and the excitement of seeing a new game for the first time came back. Thanks guys.

Have to say for me best episode so far totally went above my expectations. Thank you.
Tony Jefford Thanks Tony...this one took so much time...but I will probably never have an Environmental Discs again!
Congratulations on your best green screen to date. An amazing piece of gaming history, combined with the best restorers of historic games. Thank you so much, but what a complicated game! Loved this video! Thanks Todd!
zogsquid Thank you!
Loved the video Todd!! I didn't realize how wonderful the Discs of Tron Environmental was!! I also love the story about how you re-acquired it.
Arcade Hollywood Thanks for emailing!
That thing is a monster it's so big but man that's classic retro arcade stuff at it's greatest.
Riz2336 Yes it is!!
You gave this incredible cabinet the epic video it deserves! I remember clearly stepping into one of these back in 1983 as a 10 year old and being blown away. I think it was even more immersive than sliding into a Star Wars cockpit, would love to see one again one day for a play :)

I played it in a Chuk E Chease once in the 80's, then that location got bought out by Little Caesars.
Yey!. Worth the wait Mr T. :) .They don't make them like they used to. A true classic. Keep em coming. \m/
Wadyface Thank you!!! We all had fun with it! Everyone had a hand in this one!
Really enjoyed this video! Loved the antics, as usual. LOL ;)
Brilliant game and a fantastic video review! Thanks, Todd! It was well worth the wait. I envy the guy getting this game. Hope he enjoys it in good health
mr2foryou Thank you...yes...it was a good 15 hours to make and edit...several reshoots to try to line stuff up better! But we all had fun doing it!
** Rubs eyes **...can this be..It's finally done..well you guys are true professionals, if you only release equipment when it's no less than 100% restored. Slow applause of respect.
gallimead It's really done! Shipping tomorrow as a matter of fact!
OH MY GOD
Discs of Tron
I mastered TRON - I could play that 8 hours on a single token -
learned all of the ways to beat it
But DISCS OF TRON was my next bump in adolescence
MY OH MY
I was programming 8 bit Atari at the time - and yet?
I RECALL Discs of Tron introduced the Z factor well- the 3-d element.
WHAT A PRECIOUS PROJECT TNT
I only stopped in because I missed you so much
You are so passionate about your work
With your skills? You COULD be designing missiles for Lockheed etc, but oh no
LIKE THE CHILDREN YOU ARE AT HEART
You realize what is important
THANK YOU SO MUCH for EVERY VIDEO OFFERING YOU BRING FORWARD

figment1988 Yes...this was a TREAT to play back then and NOW!!
TNT Amusements Inc true. I know of a arcade bar up north (don't know exactly though) that has the environmental version of DOT.
Wonderful ! This is why I watch your video's. Your unrelenting passion for these games. Thanks again. Always looking forward to more.
amalchose1 Thank you!!

Thanks for posting this video! That's my holy grail video game, and one I hope to own someday.
patluvsvettes Glad you liked it!!
Great! You really outdone yourself this time Todd! Hoping for more videos more sooner now :)
AndYAce indaface Thanks! We keep churning them out...but this one took over 15 hours to do...
This was the game of 80's games. The environmental version with the voice of Sark does not get any better. Nostalgia to the max.

Yes...this really was the ultimate Movie Themed game in my opinion!!
Hi todd, what a badass classic Tron arcade game, good work
Wesley C Thanks!
Well played Todd, well played. You guys do great work!
tmnichols3 Thank you!
Great video Todd :) and well worth waiting for,we loved it.

DISCS OF TROOOOOOOOOOOOON! Great video as always Todd! keep up the great work!
MrGhostbones Thanks!!!
What makes up the carpeted "bench" in the back? Is it shaped wood? It has a curve to it.
Great Job Todd. Well worth the wait:)
marc smith Thanks Marc!
Super job on that video Todd. I remember playing this version at Aladdin's castle arcade and it was awesome too. I wonder how many of these actually survive today. It may only be a handful.
SCIONIZER Yes...we are not sure how many full size units are left now.
Hey just came across this channel! Amazing work that must be the best job ever with all of those guys! I'm trying to fix up my Close Encounters Pinball Machine. It lights up but that's all! Hope I can get it working soon! Keep up the awesome work!
clawchamp Thanks and keep watching Make sure you subscribe!
hey that" dont do that" scared me and i spilled my med roast coffee in my record player!
Ahhhh...my stupid sayings are catching on!
Gawd i love this arcade game!!!
its hard to find...but classic arcades are installing them now
@@tntamusements It's amazing Tod looks exactly the same now as he did in '83! Please give me his plastic surgeon info!
Hey I played that very same game in the Franklin Mills mall.
Ha I remember this big contest for Tron - one guy from the arcade went - HA
NO Kidding - I could play 8 hours on a single token - EASILY hit over 500k iirc.
Same with many games- Star Trek? I could get that thing so loaded down Spocks voice would crackle - Spy Hunter? could play the entire DAY on a single token - limited extra lives on that though
I'd finish a game - turn around and see 20 people behind me watching.
Wasn't into THAT part- but WAS into mastering these games
But DISC TRON ? I never did excel at BUT I really appreciated the 3-d element - that was new.
Tron vs Disc Tron? eh- I might have to say- DISC wins -
VERY cool sound effects VERY COOL 3-d introduction, as far as I recall - it was the FIRST game I knew that brought in 3-d.
Sure it's shrinking things real time to emulate 3-d hahahahah WAY WAY WAY BEFORE OpenGL
AGAIN TNT - thank you SO MUCH for what you bring forward.
If I ever win the power ball lotto? You know? Even if I sent you 10 million dollars ?
SOMETHING TELLS ME you would be doing EXACTLY what you do anyway -
why?
BECAUSE YOU CARE !!!!!!!!!!
And I care that YOU CARE
Let's fund some big food buffet or something so everyone can have a good time!
I'm unfortunately in WESTERN PA - you're in EASTERN - awe...
No kidding - Forget the Liberty Bell- I'd MUCH MUCH RATHER VISIT TNT someday
or of course- if you're ever near Indiana PA - you are WELCOME AT MY HOUSE
Tim Miltz I am honored! Please do come and visit!
One other thing, when you use your "pointy" finger I always think of a scene from Cannon Ball Run.
"In my particular line of work I seldom need more than this."

Chris Kahl YES!! I have to remember that line!
Such a trippy vid lol good job!
uniroyalbarrie Glad you liked it!
Finally! I was waiting for this video! So good
Rumples EQ Thanks!
Did Bally Midway ever come out with a kit to allow you to play the original Tron games in this environmental cabinet?
Todd, is the rear translite a normal plastic translite or is it lenticular like the marquee? I could have sworn it was a massive lenticular translite, but I haven't played a DOT environmental since 1983.
It is normal...only the marquee was lenticular and only on the street version of disc's of tron!
@@tntamusements Thanks, Todd. I could have sworn it was lenticular, but that would have been very expensive for that large size at that time.
I’ve been looking for one of these for like 15years
They are still out there!
Wallace at 5:43 cracks me up. *sigh* "yeah." *mumble*
Green Screen a Go Go indeed!
That's our Wallace! Did you see him after the end credits in the final blooper too?
I did, he was actually smiling!
lol the copyright on this must be insane :P love the greenscreen action... and I got my world rally pcb from you guys today thank you for the super service
We kept the clips short...it seems the issue is the music...and I used many home made music tracks
Love the game. Looks great and well worth the wait. Keep the videos ah-coming.
BTW: I was wondering, would it be feasible to replace some of the fluorescents with LED lights?
Chris Kahl I suppose you could...but Florescent are so cheap.
Hmmmm. I was thinking perhaps the LED lights would be a good choice to reduce any fading or long term damage to vulnerable art work from the fluorescent lights.
A rescued game from 49th Street Galleria, wow.
transtremm Yes!!
really great video. Kinda prefer the original movie. haven't entirely watced the semi sequel true to fun I had some inkling for whatever to watch the end all the way.... ouch thats alot of frisbees :P Todd will have to come up with what to do in that space ;P and Tammy wasn't driving the bike oh that wouldn't made it look odd :)
Lee Bartholomew Will put another version of Discs of Tron with Tammy tomorrow!
I had to watch it again.
hollow1 Glad you liked it enough to rewatch it!
What's the retail price on a game this rare? Just curious. Also, what software are you using to do your video editing? Thanks!
John McCollum This had a deposit almost two years ago...but since he left the deposit, it has gone way up in price...I would gfigure around 8K nowadays...in this shape.
I do not remember filter capacitors in the old tube radios that were that high.
Lyle Johnson no...probably not radios...but possibly old TV sets
How did you move it? Does it come apart?
Ashley Holroyd Originally it did not come apart...but to move it here, we did make it a two piece unit...we shipped it on a long custom built crate...as customer can move it right into his gameroom as its a separate building with no steps!
I ran into Flynn the other night Todd. He said to tell you Hi.
:-)
Todd, curious if you remember the going price of a game like Tron up right back the day new? What was this compared to for the disks of Tron?? I hear a lot on prices of pins but not much on the 80 classics. Do you have any old price invoices.. I know you save a lot of stuff. .
Thanks for the great vids.
Bryan Roth Tron was $2999 but I weas never sure of Discs...I would suspect $1500 more probably.
Something went terribly wrong at 21:03 I never laughed so hard at this NSFW...
My poor finger!
Todd, are you going to cinefest next week?
Matt Einbinder YES!! Tammy and I will be there Thursday afternoon to Sunday afternoon! Will have a booth...just bringing shorts and cartoons! And of course, my video camera!
Hey Todd, the word on the streets is that Bob Roberts is ill and not supplying arcade hobbyists with their orders, but others say he does...You must know him better than most, what's up? Whats' your option of this story?
Top Tier Arcade Bob is ill but his wife is filling all the current orders...just got a $600 order of capacitors from them two days ago!
TNT Amusements Inc thanks for the update
Bob have heart problems and he do some updates on hes blogg, blogg tells us about 20 hours days and computer problems... homearcade.org/BBBB/status.html u also has hes homepage. so wish someone could help him with his homepage. amazing parts library.
Whats that sound like bacon sizzling or a water fall in the background? like around 34:11
nationalist818 That was our gutters and all the melting snow as the rain was washing it away....this was filmed over a three day period....
he got it for free they were giving them away wow
You know I still really want that empty tmnt cabinet. Maybe we could work out a deal, I have a Jurassic park pin that I wouldn't mind trading for the cabinet and some work done on my tmnt pinball. Hit me back. I tried calling twice with no luck.
brian richards sadly its sold as a TMNT now...sorry!!
7:28 - 7:35 LOL!!!!! 😂😜
Damon0306 Glad I made you laugh!!
Do you know if anybody has made or attempted to make a Tron/Discs of Tron combo game?
+coreym76 Tron is a vertical game and Discs is horizontal...so it would pretty much make it impossible using a 19" screen....you could reconfigure it for a 25" screen I suppose....
Your green screen is actually more convincing than that awful CGI Jeff Bridges, Todd.
Neil Purcell Thanks Neil! This took hours to do...but we so love Tron. I wonder if Disney would like it?
This Old Game...his name is Rich not Dave....
Orangewhip Ouch! He's gonna kill me!!!
cheesy green screen on this one Todd even if it's 4 yr old video green screen a no no lmao
this is why I am finished doing green screens forever...too much time and they are hated
