The 1993 prize machine with the little robot Godzilla was just one of a series of similar cabinets!

Shockingly I was a Namco (Aladdin's Castle specifically) arcade attendant in Pennsylvania during the late 90s and had the privilege of not only playing this game but working on it a few times, as well as loading in prizes and, later, tickets.
Did Namco own that place?
@@sonic23233 yes, they did. It was during the transition between Namco and another company. Again late 90's. Like 95-99.
@@SashaThePrincessofDarkness Scranton?
@@GokuMcDuck sorry but no & I don't expose my location anyway.
What prizes were there?
7:02 By this point on your channel, everyone is past wondering "how the fuck did he get that"...
But still, seeing you trying to feed a mini-oxygen-destroyer to a mini-Godzilla with chopsticks was pretty badass...
I was visiting some friends of mine about 6 years ago. We were at a amusement park/ arcade. Inside they had Godzilla Wars Jr. My friends had some fun, but I was too busy loving the art and the Godzilla figure.
Now I wanna know what the most expensive thing in the MIBasement is.
Imagine the irony of it being a godzilland eraser that hasn’t been used or worn down by time
Ooh, actually full respect for eraser non neglect
As adorable as that game is, that ending was awfully grim. XD
I love getting to see these more obscure pieces of Godzilla memorabilia. I know that other tokusatsu franchises had arcade games. A video highlighting some of those (like with the Compati-Hero reviews) would be cool.
To make the ending less grim, you can pretend that this little Godzilla was actually hungry and when you win and get all six ping pong balls and his mouth, he’s actually doing a happy dance!
The oxygen destroyer
2:38 hey we had that in arcades in Guadalajara (city in Mexico) I loved it, seasonal festivals and carnivals held at my hometown called Chapala which was 1 hour away from Guadalajara would also often have this on arcade stalls, which yes they were a thing, it was a small carp or tent that would have 4 to 5 arcade cabinets and 1 or 2 games on the same style as the godzilla jr game, I remember seeing this for the first time when I was like 6 and I completely lost it, I had to be dragged out by my dad because I didn't want to leave.
Ese sentimiento...
So glad you got to cover this. I remember playing this as a kid at an arcade in Lake Grove Long Island called Space Plex, and I think later at Sports Plus. I didn't even play it for tickets, I really loved when Godzilla did his little jig when you got the jackpot.
Also, I used to get this one confused with a game that Namco made a year later called "Belly Bomber" . Where a monster would move side to side and you used these "bombs" on sliders to throw into the monster's belly to attack him.
Awesome stuff as always MIB, you're always welcome to come play my Godzilla Pinball if you ever make it to Florida!
In 2000, my family vacationed to Florida for a week at a special foundation. They had a whole village to explore, including an arcade. It some typical arcade classics like Ms.Pac-Man as well as a not so typical game set up where it’s just a PS1 hooked up to a tv with a beanbag chair in front of it. However, the thing that caught my eye was the Godzilla Wars Jr cabinet. I only played it once and I’m pretty sure I never scored a single ball, but it’s stuck with me ever since. I loved that thing so much. Have never seen one in person since. Only ever seen it online in photos.
So I’m glad you covered this. This is such a nostalgic boot to the head for me.
I remember playing this at CHUCKECHEESE. I haven't won but it was an amazing game. Thank you for bringing this up. It was so nostalgia.
YOU HAVE AN ARCADE GAME IN YOUR BASEMENT!?!?! You are hands down the coolest TH-camr that I know!
When I was younger, I used to go to this skating rink in my town. It actually had (and I think still has) a Godzilla wars Jr. Arcade machine. Despite it being one of the more older arcade machines, it still looked and ran very well. I remember playing it a lot when I was there (never won though, the highest score I ever got was five I think). Haven't been to the skating rink in a while though, so I'm not really 100% sure if it's still there, still working well, stuff like that. Planning to go back to the skating rink soon, so hopefully it's still there and still working well
let us know!
An update to anyone seeing this. The Godzilla wars Jr. Arcade machine is still there and still running very well. I even managed to barely beat it this time. I'm honestly glad it's still around today
Lol! I remember playing this when I was a child at a DZ discovery zone (I don't think they exist anymore) I remember being so infatuated and in unbelief while playing it since Goji stuff like this was so uncommon back in the early 90s. Thanks for sharing mib!
A Godzilla railgun game, that sounds like a great idea, you could choose different mechs, a mecha version of zone fighter, resembling the guncannon heavy custom, the super x4 and battle some kaiju, there are some minor kaiju that serve as regular enemies. The plot is that an alien invasion is happening and that they have taken control the earth’s kaiju, but luckily, mothra and Godzilla haven’t been mind controlled, so you can play and unlock kaiju, the name for my idea is Godzilla: kaiju strike. This is not the first time someone has come up with this idea, and it hasn’t been used a lot, but I think something like this could work. What are your ideas?
I love how whenever I think you ran out of Godzilla related stuff you find more! Your videos always make me smile.
You’ve been on a roll these past few weeks with how fast you’ve been uploading. Keep up the good work!
It’s nice to see you reviewing this after seeing it on your instagram
Wow I used to play this at my local video store in Brooklyn. The owner was a huge godzilla head and he had a few arcades in the back and this was one of them.
One of my favorite memories as a kid was going to knotts berry farm in California and playing this in one of their arcades! I do remember the last time I went the cabinet wasn’t there anymore so they might’ve gotten rid of it but I haven’t been to Knotts in awhile.
Godzilla themed or not, it's always great to see a working arcade machine like this. The only arcade machines I've encountered the most recently are those claw machines (and there's WAY too many of them).
This Makes me wonder what MIB does for a living to afford all these cool collectibles. At the same time I don’t want to know because I love the videos!
This was my favorite arcade game back when I was like 5-6, I used to play it at Discovery Zone back at my old home in Florida. That game has a lot of sentimental value to me.
Oh my god, that ending XD I hope you realize that makes you the king of being a monster feeding a oxygen destroyer to a adorable King of the monsters!
Oh yeah, and play Dawn of the Monsters for your Videogame reviews. Its like Streets of Rage meets King of the Monsters 2. Well, if King of the monsters 2 had mooks your size to beat up. That game was SO close to being a kaiju beat em up, but they forgot the bad guys to beat up. Planes and tanks just aren't the same.
I saw and played one of those godzilla wars arcade games when I was eight. It was in a kids arcade in Abu Dhabi.
I played it in 1992 or 1993 as a kid at the arcades in Rehoboth Beach. I remember it vividly because I won a ton of tickets and that themesong got stuck in my head. Years later I realized it was the godzilla theme, suite II. Like to this day I still associate it with Godzilla Wars Jr. Even during Minus One. Thanks for this
There was one of these cabinets in Knott's Berry Farm, but I saw it around 2012-14. I haven't returned since then, but if anyone has been there recently and has possibly seen it, I'd love to know!
This game is actually in a mall on my City, and it's still there even after like 10 years.
Althought the part to place a quarter was replaced with one to pass a card on (it's because the árcade in the mall doesn't use quarters, but a weird type of credit card that you pay to have points on, and spent those points on games, each game having a different amount of points to spent on).
I remember playing it a lot and having a lot of fun with it (sadly I have only scored 6 points ever like once lol).
Another funny thing is that I played it before I knew anything about Godzilla besides "giant angry radioactive lizard", so I thought Ghidorah was a random monster created for the background of the cabinet.
When I was a kid, my parents took me to an arcade and Minnie golf place in Kentucky. I don't know where it was or if it's still open, but they had this game there, and I played it. I thought it was one of the coolest things ever.
God(zilla) bless you for making these videos man. Always fun to see stuff like this. Your sense of humor really adds that extra touch of flavor too.
Ok this is legitimately pretty cool. I’ve never even heard of this before but now i kinda wanna play it…. Actually here’s a Question that you might know the answer to or might end up sending you spiraling down a Kaiju sized Rabbit hole of Research… What do you think the Prizes were in the Prize version of these machines? From the graphic on that Japanese one you showed with Mothra carrying what looks like a Gatchapon capsule I can assume they were little Gachapon toys or possibly candy. But was it like Random little Trinkets? Candy? Or perhaps A series of Potentially exclusive Gatchapon Godzilla Toys! So many possibilities!!!
Does MIB own a Gashapon machine?
@@sonic23233 i would be shocked if he didn’t at least have a toy one. Japan Vlogger Abroad in Japan has both a real Gatchapon machine and a toy one shaped like Anpan Man, so it wouldn’t shock me if there was a Godzilla one and If MIB had one
4:06 you can see MIB’s face in the background lol
I saw one of these when I was like 5 in Chicago, I think it was around Navy Pier, it's one of my earliest memories of Godzilla, I remember getting a red Godzilla finger puppet from it.
0:07 Really channeling your inner titanosaurus there huh.
Played it a couple of times at various soft play centers like Discovery Zone in the early-to-mid 90s. Never got all 6 balls in though.
There used to be a big indoor amusement park in Shawnee, KS called PowerPlay (they only have one location left open in KCMO), and some of us would get to go there during middle school on a field trip each spring as an incentive for good behavior. I actually remember they had one of these when we came one year and, seeing as how middle school was when I first got into Godzilla, I was immediately enamored with it and played it. You're lucky to have one all your own!
I was at my local arcade NickelWorld when i first played. I heard the unmistakeable roar from the door and immediately rushed to the machine. I love that game.
I played this game whenever we went to my local skating rink, this was so fun to play.
I loved this vid keep up the good work mib and btw a video suggestion I’d possibly enjoy to see in the future is a room tour of ur collections of multiple franchise mainly Godzilla ofc lol
Played this in timezone cebu. The soundtrack and everything brings back so much memories!
Laughing two seconds in with the cartoon scuttle inside with your box, lol, thank you!
I first played that game at Knott's Berry farm back in 2015 when there Arcade was good. I was never able to beat it as my highest was 4. I wish I could play it again but sadly it isn't there anymore.
I learned something with this video. Thanks, MIB!
I remember playing this game in my local mall arcade. It was a place called bumpers, it was in the 2000's. I loved this game it was one of the few I could win.
There was one at a "Sports Plus" (something like a Chuck E Cheese, or a Dave and Busters) near the mall where I used to live back up on Long Island. My friend at the time just described it as a Godzilla arcade game, so I thought it was a video game like the Godzilla fighting game advertised in Nintendo Power. I was actually shocked it was a game like that because I didn't even know the game existed.
I actually played that in Niagara Falls Canada as I'm Canadian, I wanted to keep that thing, I didn't wanna leave Niagara Falls
The irony that nowadays if those arcade games were to resurface, they would be Bandai-Namco games, fitting since Bandai has had a merchandising license for Godzilla for what seems like an eternity. Yeah, I'll admit that Chibi Godzilla was very cute indeed, but wait at the end there, were you going to feed him a mini Oxygen Destroyer?! You're evil! :D
I also played this arcade game but actually 2 years ago I went to Washington(not dc)forgot what city but it was a pizza place and they had an arcade area and they had Godzilla Wars Jr and it really was addicting. I rlly loved the simplicity and addictive of this game
I lived in japan from 2012-2015. i'm fairly positive the Osaka Tennoji Zoo had the godzilla merry go round and Jumbo Godzilla. no clue about today as i moved back to the US, but certainly worth a look if anyone is there.
When I was 16 I worked in a local arcade called Pocket Change and they had this machine in the back next to the Pac Man Jr pinball cabinet. I never really thought much of it until now. I know when the arcade closed around 2007ish the owners kept almost all of the cabinets for their personal collection or sent some to other places they owned. Makes me wonder if they still have Godzilla stashed away somewhere.
My childhood laundromat randomly had a godzilla wars Jr also here in Chicago. I only ever remember it working once, all other times it would just eat your quarters and just not work.
I remember playing this arcade game when I was least 5 or 7 years old it was in the arcade game where they had ice cream and Mini golf game the godzilla game was the only thing I played when I was there
I remember playing this at the Great Canadian Midway as a kid, the game was right across from the original House of The Dead cabinet so I'd always hit them both in a 1-2 punch hehe
I remember playing this machine as a kid and loving chibi godzilla's design. I'd love a plush of him
Oh man, this game…
Here’s a real 90s nostalgia bomb: my local Discovery Zone (MEMBAH, I MEMBAH!) had this and it was always a highlight of my time at DZ. Nearly every Chuck E. Cheese knockoff, roller rink or laser tag area near me had it too.
I played this at Buffalo Bills Casino at the CA/NV State Line in the late 90s. It was a blast.
I remember I played this once as a kid. It was at a mall's mini arcade in California. I remember seeing it only once, so I thought it was just a really rare piece.
I remember seeing this at Knotts Berry Farm at the arcade attached to the defunct dark ride, Kingdom of the Dinosaurs back in 1998 & 2000.
There was an arcade, long gone now, in Owosso Michigan that had the Godzilla Wars Jr arcade game. I even have personal photos of the game and arcade.
There was a game exactly like this in Ecuador's "Vulqano Park", but I think they redecoraded it a little bit. I remember wanting to go to that park just for this game. It then sut down, and the last time I went there the machine was long gone.
awesome to hear I’ve seen the space Godzilla micro battle place it in the background of your videos
I love your intro promotion skits, they're really funny.
I remember playing this game at Chuck E. Cheese back when I was little!
Amazing video, how cool to have one in your own house!!
Oh wow! I remember playing this game way back in the day (late 90's) at my local roller rink arcade over in Coon Rapids, MN
I took glimpses of this game on the old arcade I used to go to as a kid, never got the chance to play it before they took it away, I remember loving the goji artstyle
Seriously, I want to actually HUG that little Godzilla animatronic!!!
I played this around 1993 or so and on.
Place called Swing Around Fun Town in Fenton, Mo. was an outdoor mini-golf, go-cart place with an indoor arcade/kiddie-rides.
I was 19 or 20 and would some days just go to play that goofy game!
Got the new piggy bank cuz it reminded me of it and cuz it’s so damn cute.
Holy crap: I actually played a Godzilla Wars game in Helsinki, Finland back in the late 90's. Specifically in an arcade located underground in Kaisaniemi (back when we had arcades. Tho there's some private/independent hobbyist ones like Sugoi Arcade). Not sure if it was the big one at beginning or more likely the Jr one that got released in the States too. Might have been when Kinopalatsi Cinema was established around in the same complex, tho that would be '98. The same complex also had two tabletop game stores for Warhammer and such when I first started dipping into the hobby myself, buying some White Dwarf magazines and a bunch of minis. Tho would take 'till early '10s when I would get back into it.
I do remember playing this game when I was kid back in the 90s, it was at DZ Discovery Zone
5:00 Why am I immediately reminded of the big heads on Easter Island?!?
MIB, they're not an audience, they're Seatopian surveillance posts! Are you quite sure Megalon is as passive and depressive as you've made him out to be?
I remember seeing this machine as a kid in the 90s at chuckie cheese that music was always stuck in my head lolz.
They had one of these at My Local Marino's Pizza back in the day. Such Memories!
My local arcade used to have 2 of these back to back with a spinning jackpot marquee in the center. I only ever hit the jackpot once for 2500 odd tickets.
I love your chanel, MIB. Whenever you upload a new video, it just makes my day.
Thanks for always being willing to share the things you enjoy with us!
The closest thing to a Godzilla version of Hungry Hungry Hippos
Now all we need is a review of the Godzilla version of Crocodile Dentist
I played the game in the abasto shooping from Argentina when i was a kid! :"D
Oh my goodness. I've never seen Jumbo Godzilla before and I love him
I’m honestly amazed you have a little arcade machine in your house.
The music for the Godzilla Wars Jr game is surprisingly good from what little I hear of it.
I freakin loved this game as a child! They had this at my local bowling alley in a separate room that was full of arcade games and this was the one I played the most. In fact this game was my first exposure to Godzilla 😃
I remember playing this game a few times when I went to a Dandy Bear when I was very little, brought it up with pals since I read the place is officially closing down later this weekend, it will be missed but those were some good times
I was wondering when you were gonna do that MIB it looks awesome.
I've always got a strange sense of nostalgia seeing this machine in the background of your videos. I probably stumbled upon it as a child but I have huge gaps in my memories so who knows.
I do remember playing this game in the arcade section of a go-kart place and oddly enough it was in the corner so I always knew where it was.
I actually played on this as a kid once. I think the place was called Discovery Zone or something like that. I recognized it immediately, haven't thought of it in forever. I miss the arcade, but I think I'm a little old for that now!
I just 💚 those voices of arcade machines.🙂
I remember playing this game when I was a child and this was what started my love of Godzilla
I played one at a laser tag nearby my college in Oakville, Canada. I think the place was called Planet Laser? I freaked out and took way too much time admiring it and taking photos much to my patient friends' annoyance. That was my first time ever seeing one in person.
I remember playing that game at Fun Fair when I was a kid!
Played one of these today at Starrcade in Kennesaw, GA.
i like how he sneak like that like a 90's cartoon lol 0:06
When I was 10 years old love playing this game at Chuck E. Cheese in the 90s man I always won. Everytime
I see that game in a arcade name criatura in my country (argentina) and that game still in Function!
In my home town of Kamloops BC, we have a little arcade called Rucker’s, and it had a Godzilla Wars Jr. machine, chances are it’s still there, but i havent been there since i moved to pei in 2021
I sadly cannot remember where I played this, but I know I was young enough to ti be right at eye level with Chibi Godzilla.
I loved the game and spent all my money on it when we went to this indoor park of some kind.
It had a roller coaster and everything. It’s a shame I can’t remember the place, but I think it had an animal or jungle theme
I remember playing this game in this indoor amusement park in AZ. It was near the front of the place right as you enter and me being obsessed with Godzilla always would play it. Unfortunately the place shut down and the game is now gone
I've never seen this game, but it reminds me of this very obscure Simpsons arcade machine similar to this I've only ever seen once at a Chuck E Cheese. You have Lisa drop cupcakes into either Homer or Bart's mouths. The cupcakes were ski balls on a track, and while it didn't feature a giant plastic Homer or Bart, they were painted on a glass/fiberglass overlay and their "mouths" were just platforms that opened and closed. Never heard of or saw one ever again, and I think Konami released it, like the arcade beat 'em up and bowling games.
I remember Chuck E. Cheese’s had this! Always loved the anime style Godzilla!!
Great video MIB!!! Man, Namco really has some cool ideas when creating these arcade games, these look really fun!!!! Lucky you own one, mad respect!!! For some dumb reason my brother told me that back when we were little, during a trip to a chuck E cheese, he saw a Godzilla wars arcade game and i didn't believe him! Boy, i was dumb.
I played something similar as a kid in a skating ring though it was a trex
7:05 now that is straight up murder, its funny
