My favorite part was at 03:03:12 when you accurately predict the future. You described John and Jay's Arcade almost to the t. Congratulations. Love the channel.
Wow, I just watched it all on my tv! Awesome, thanks for the great videos, John. I really enjoy the repairs, restores, arcade walk thrus (like this one) & the on the road vids. Keep up the awesomeness and happy 2015.
I really really enjoyed this vid John! Watched it in two parts and enjoyed every minute of it. You are doing such a great job of capturing the love for the arcade classics and bringing it to the big public. Keep it up in 2015 and I'm sure your channel will grow even further then in 2014. Wishing you and your family all the best for the New Year.
Thanks so much for this video! I really appreciate the indepth look and stories about each cabinet, dont worry about the video length, its quite enjoyable to watch!
Great job Jon in 2014. Your interest in this hobby,your knowledge,and willingness to share, reflects back to us,the viewers. Thats why WE keep coming back to watch your vids...I think 2015 can be even bigger...Awesome ,Awesome job "Long Live Arcades"
Thank you for all the awesome content John! I loved this video and it was a great way to pass 3+ hours while I'm off work! Keep up the great work!
I watched the lot and found it all fascinating. Once of the best TH-cam videos I've ever watched!!! KEEP UP THE GREAT WORK!!!
John, I can't think of a better way to wrap up John's Arcade 2014 than what you did with this video. There were a lot of times where you mentioned "I've answered this before" but a lot of us missed some of the older videos and this was the perfect time to address those thoughts and refresh the memories of the more forgetful. I really love this video, it brought me up to speed and I feel like I got to experience a little behind the scenes. Great work, keep it up!
Hey John, this is about my 3rd viewing of this video. Thanks for all you do for the hobby. I've been wanting to get into it for several years. Thanks to what you have shown/taught me over the past couple of years, 2016 will be the year I officially get into this hobby. Take care and hope you never loose your love for this. I know you have been stressed lately with all the changes in your life(VGO/AO/your dog). Be sure to take time for yourself. While we love your videos we don't want you to get burned out. Again, thanks for all you do & share with us.
Congrats on all of your success. I enjoy all of your videos. The quality is excellent and you are always looking to improve. I am glad that you have decided to put yourself in front of the camera this year. Keep up the good work and I can't wait to see what is next.
WOW - What a Video over 3 hrs of Arcade Goodness!!!! Great Work BLKDOG!!!
Love the videos John! Great job on this one! I got a lot of laundry done during this one!
I love your attention to detail over the history of the designers and their contributions. It's nice they get some credit for what they did.

Great Job Brother. One of the best youtube game related videos I have seen in years, you will be the next big thing soon and have inspired me (I watch all the major channels you're one of the best). Cheers brother even though this was last year, having a drink now at the end! haha. Take care from Canada!

arcadefever Thanks, pal! HAPPY NEW YEAR
Love your videos and work thank you from Cardiff Wales Uk.
Your videos really awaken loads of nostalgia from when i was kid.
Great stuff, as usual. Looking forward to all the 2015 builds!
John Victor Thanks, John! Me too! Can't wait to get to the garage in the spring!
We are ending the year together Johny boy !
Thanks so much for sharing so much of your work and your passion for them beloved arcade Video games
Thanks, dude! HAPPY NEW YEAR!
John, Happy New Year
I am personally proud to have contributed to your 2014 success, and look forward to your continued growth in the future.
Really enjoyed seeing all of your collection and the story behind each. Keep up the great work...
Michael Salomone Thanks tons, Michael! Truly appreciate it. TONS.
I guess your setup and selection of arcade games at that moment in time was the best you ever achieved. And that was the john i liked (enthusiastic, passionate, dedicated...). Good old times :=)
First video of yours I watched, and watched it all the way to the end. (In a couple sit-downs.) Informative and fun! Good work.
Thanks, Stefan!
Loved the Video John, Can not wait to see more of your videos in 2015. :D :D :D
Awesome been looking forward to this, 3 hours, Woohoo! Thanks!
I watched it all. :D
And enjoyed every second of it, looking forward to what the next year brings and an early Happy New Year back to you john. :).
Happy New Year, Leighton!! Thanks for watching!
Awesome video, love it so far!!!
Great video John. Sat down and watched it in one sitting. You are going all out this Christmas with the videos. Have a great New Year and time with the family.
gingertom64 Thanks, tom! :)
I really appreciate your videos John. I watched the complete journey arcade series. It kinda helped me out to finish my name cabinet that I've been building for over some years. I didn't know how to approach the painting of the cab. That journey series helped me a lot, and my cab is almost done. Waiting to put some legs levelers. I'm a big fan of all your videos. I'm watching from Dominican Republic. Thanks for all the great videos, looking forward to the next year and your future projects. I watched this 3 hours video in its entirely, and there's no waste in it.
Thanks tons! Glad you liked it.
Hey John!! Thanks for reading my viewer mail a few videos back!! I was impressed with your "Parts Department" all of your extra PCB's etc.
Thankyou John.....This video is great.
Mad Planets is one of my all time favourite games ..i love the dial and joystick control scheme.
Happy new year !
Stuart Sumner Yeah... seriously. Mad Planets frickin' RULES.
The best arcade channel on TH-cam by far. Here's to another great year of John and his arcade!
Matt Manning Thanks, Matt! Truly appreciate it!
Watched every minute and loved it
Great 2014 vids can't wait to see what 2015 brings
Awesome, Steve! Thanks for watching!
Wow nine years ago. Been great watching the evolution of the arcade. Hope you are well and still enjoying the hobby.
Thank you John! Wish you and your family a good and healthy new year with lots of arcade gaming of course... :-)
You too, Mario! Happy New Year!!!
Awesome video. I always wanted to try Heady Topper. Cheers thanks for the videos!
Hi John your videos just get better and better, nice variety, keep them coming

Thanks john for all the entertainment this year buddy!This ain't a video this is a movie.lol
Ha! Thanks, Franco!
Congrats on all your success John it's well deserved.
Thanks, pal! :)
Great job with the review. I watched it in pieces.
Thanks for the video man, love the channel!
Crispy Thanks, Crispy! Means much. :)
I just found your channel in the last month or so. I would say these super long year end videos are great. I've watched 10 or 15 of your other videos for different reasons. I've been wondering what all you had in your arcade as well as your personal story about why you wanted these games, what you did to them, the value/rarity of them, past memories, etc. etc. but didn't feel like peeling through your channel to try to piece all that together. This year end video did all that, I thoroughly enjoyed it, and YES I made it to the end. By the way, I'll actually be clicking subscribe after I post this comment, so you can credit this video for making that finally happen. ;) Thanks John and keep doing what you're doing!
+Geplus Logger Awesome! Thanks so much for watching. Glad you liked it. :) And... thanks for subscribing. :)
You bet! :)
Terrific video, as always, thanks! I played Mario Bros and Zoo Keeper in the summer of 1983 when my family was visiting my grandparents in Chicago. I also played Wacko. . I'm from Long Island, NY.
Finished the whole video. Waaay too short.
;-)
What a year. Thanks for all videos & hard work, John.
hahahah! Way too short? Thanks for watching.
love your restore vids the most
Fantastic vid john
It took my a couple of evenings but it was well worth it.
I loved the walk round reviews
Your the no1 Arcadian 😎👍
Nintendo Arcade Thanks, Alex! :)
Awesome video John and Happy New Year buddy!! Keep up the good work!
Happy new year!!! :)
Cat eating out a... LOL!
These videos motivate me to repair & fix stuff John, cheers for that mate, quality channel - one of my favorites!
Thanks, Bimmy! Appreciate it! :)
I'm about an hour in, every game is your favorite haha. Great collection though. I'm learning a lot about these arcades just from what you're saying, you've really learned about each game.
I played arcade games like crazy in the 80's. But I don't remember ever seeing some of these ganes like Major Havoc, Zoo Keeper, and Journey. I have 2 Mame arcade games in my basement, and now I know how to play these rare games. Thanks John!
I'm very jealous of your man cave John, all three hours of it! Love it mate; happy New Year. :)
MagikGimp Thanks, Gimp! But it's not a man cave. :) It's an arcade.
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech A Mancade then? ;)
I watched it in about 4 to 5 parts to finish it! Whoa! Good stuff!
Hey John take some love from Portugal have a great year you and your family PS: keep up with the big vids never get bored with John´s Arcade
your videos are great , big hug , happy 2015 !!!
Happy New Year, bro!
Watched in one go, I feel like I've OD'd on your videos now :) - Great fun though an love your videos.
***** Sorry. :)
Great work over all. I was in Vegas a while back and went to the Pinball hall of fame, I never would have known about it, had it not been for your video. Suggestions for popcorn topping other than butter and salt; Hot sauce, honey, brown sugar.
Your year end reviews are always a good time, can't wait for that next Donkey Kong Video too.
Thanks! I think the next vid will be a DK vid! :)
Hell yeah, I'm playing it myself on mame quite a bit, I just broke 100k.(which is huge to me).
Happy new year, john! Greetings from belgium!
Bert Claes Happy New Year, Bert!!!!
Love the channel! I've been watching for a while and just got my email for the tshirts! Can't wait to get one...... Cheers John!
Watched every second of any video you make don't mind if every one you out out was 3 hours long ... after I get home from work I lay down relax and watch you vids. Since I was a kid I wanted to own my own arcade. Now iam looking to collect and restore games the only problem is I live in Brooklyn and search on Craigslist and find nothing.. I check ebay but the price to ship Is ridiculous. . Hopefully one day I can find one .. thanks John for all you hard work keep it up!!
Love the year end video, I stream it on my HDTV and love to hear the backstory on the games
Thanks, Brian! Glad you liked it. :)
That's a sick setup you have man. Kudos!
Another awesome video. Yes I watched all 3 hours lol.
SongahmWarrior Thanks bro! Glad you enjoyed it. :)
Good stuff! Watched in completion! This video is longer than The Hobbit lol. Happy new year, dude; can't wait for next years projects.
Yes, it was longer than the Hobbit and I made it for about 40 million dollars less. :)
Nice one John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech, watched that all in one sitting, never apologise for lengthy vids... You need a John finishes Outrun series now too... ;) Keep it up mate...
PantherUK Thanks, Panther! I can't seem to finish that stupid game! :)
Did you get a new camera? The quality in this video is amazing. I love that you've gone to 60fps! It looks so much nicer as well. Love your channel! You really know your stuff.
Am I reading the time right? Over three hours?!? Can't wait to watch!
Sadly, this is true. :) It's a long ass vid.
Hey John thanks for the shout out. Happy New Year
Mos' Def', bro! Thanks for the beer!! Heady Topper rules!!
It is good but I would rather a bottle of Cantion Iris or Rose
Nice john! Watching from my home arcade in Indiana! Still and hour and a half to go!
Awesome! ENJOY!
3 hour video?
No thnx john i had for this year
Happy new year buddy
Wha!??! You don't like? :)
I Am in love with your Popcorn maker it's super cute.
Love the show, the podcast, and mostly the games! I only have one cabinet of my own so far, a 4 slot Neo Geo mvs , but totally want more. The repair tips are always appreciated. Keep it up and fuck the haters!
Just watched full video while working out how I fit my arcade cabinets into my small garage/basement/utilityroom/arcade. Rolling around these small papercuts around my floorplan :D It´s 4am but I´m not even tired.
hy john i wish you a happy new year 2015 and all the best for you and your family
Love ya John !
Love your videos John. Keep up the good work.
I have been collecting, selling, repairing etc. since I purchased my first DK Jr. cocktail in 1994. I currently have 8 pins and around 18 arcades and at one time I had over 30 cabinets but had to sell a bunch when I moved across the state 7 years ago.
The passion you have toward this hobby is truly amazing and you have inspired me in a lot of ways when I work on my gameroom. I want to make some videos for you tube but there is no way I can match your charisma on the camera although I am going to try anyway.
By the way - After your dad drove over your sisters foot and all the drama settled, did you guys go in the arcade and play Paper Boy?
I love seeing all the PSAs that these old machines have. Winners Don't Do Drugs is still a big part of my childhood due to all the Capcom games I played.
Gyruss hidden away in the corner..... oh the humanity lol :)
But yeah, I'd have that cab out and in full view because its just awesome.
Love the Outrun upright also. Again, pity its in the corner.
Dont know if I've ever mentioned, but I do watch all your vids from start to finish, however it can take me a few days just to get through one episode, like this one for instance :)
36:59 "Theres a girl frog right here, she gets on your back and you can take her to the home to get a little bonus" 😎👍😉😉
The Summer Olympics were hosted by Los Angeles in 1984, actually the only one I know for sure when and where it took place. :)
Thank you John for this awesome and educational tour!
Retro Phaeax Thanks for clarifying! I thought it was '84. Seems like all those Olympic games came out around then, no?
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech
Yes, those classics like Decathlon, Micro Olympics, Track & Field and Summer Games on the Commodore 64, all released in 1984.
Oh, btw do you have any plans on letting your Dragons Lair be accompanied by an Space Ace cabinet? As a kid when I saw Space Ace being displayed for the first time, it totally blew my mind... :)
Love your video's John! The Journey restoration was amazing. I have wanted that game for years but don't have the skills like yourself to pretty much build the game from the ground up. I was a Moon Cresta kid as well. Don't know if you remember that one?
***** Yes, I have played Moon Cresta. Neat early shooter.
john only wobbles the table to make the viewers nervous :)
You've got a great collection man. I'm a crazy beer drinker and I've never heard of or seen that.
Google it! It's a big deal.
Woah, 3 hours? Awesome! I have your videos on as background at work, and this is going to be sweet. (Co-workers don't approve of the language on Arcade Outsiders.) Happy New Year, pal!
Frederick Porter Ha! Sorry about the potty mouths on AO. :)
What? No Space Invaders, Wizard of War, or Phoenix? Ah well, you can't have everything, you have pretty much everything else! The fact that you have Dragon's Lair is beyond impressive. Your basement would have been heaven for me and my friends back in the 80's!
Great video - I watched it all (over three nights). I really like the vids just hangin' in your basement. On a music note, is your Blackface Twin a reissue or an actual 60s model? Take care, man!
***** It's actually a 70s Silverface with a Blackface mod and faceplate. It has been hotrodded.
John's Arcade Game Reviews & Tech Awesome! I'd imagine you're pretty handy when it comes to repairing/modding up amps. I have a '64 Bassman and a Princeton Blackface reissue; a fender-lover here as well. Thank you for the reply and take care, John! Also, thanks again for all your hard work.
I actually watched this from beginning to end. Watched an hour last night and just finished it now. I am 23 years old and I'd love to open a Barcade myself. You seriously consider doing it let me know. I'll invest in it with you. We could be the next big thing!
Thank you for mentioning the arcade sign that you got at Hobby Lobby. It looks pretty cool. I went by my local Hobby Lobby yesterday and got the last one. Everyone else in town that watches your videos must have already come by and got the rest of them. The sign is "$35" but of course they are always having 50% off sales.
John you having a Blondie album cover on your stair-case wall just like upped my respect for you, You're a good man.
***** Dude, Blondie was bad ass back in the day! Good shit.
Great stuff.
Thanks, Dean! :)
I remember the spectator monitor above the Donkey Kong in my hometown arcade when I was a child. Those Nintendo games really benefited from them! (That and the 10 coin slots to claim your space in line) :)
Phew, watched the whole thing, tidied and organized my entire gameroom while it was on :)
Re: the lcd monitors at the end, I agree with you completely but mame does have some great effects in it now that emulate the curvature, scanlines, glow, colours bleeding etc, you can make games look really nice. Still not a replacement for an arcade monitor but it's a million times better than the flat plain lcd look.
