well it's not really a myth exactly,the money holder(according to the book "Smartbomb" it was just a bread pan.)really did fill up and get jammed, even that site says that much. it just depends on your definition of "soon" most places say it took two weeks but some do say two or a few days. what was the first pinball machine to feature a dot-matrix display?

Oh man, it looks like your correct. I misread that article. Now I feel dumb. In my defense though, that article could really have been written better. It makes it sound as though the call was only about the non-paying customers.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia jaymc10 wrote: i dunno the rest of those either but i'm going to ask a question anyways... what loadstar game was released in 1985 for the commodore 64 and features a particular type of bird?  | | |
I'm guessing it's Chicken Maze. What 1983 arcade game's working name was changed to coincide with the release of a Dabney Coleman movie?

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia Cloak and Daggar.
In the Descent series, what well known TV actor provided the voice of you're character, the Material Defender?
He originally asked not to be credited; apparently, he didn't think the games would amount to much. How wrong he was!

Except The Joker is DC, not Marvel. I suppose that it could be all the more reason for them to announce him as an April fools joke though.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia Oh wait, I remember this, G4 went crazy way back when. It was Peter Parker's aunt. May or something.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia I was able to confirm it. It looks like the original announcement (LOL). I believe that means its your go.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia Ok, what Atari 2600 (talk about old school) game was credited (as in considered) as "Adult Themed" and was only sold to people that were 21 or over?
Hint: Made by Mystique.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia There were several, but you're probably referring to Custer's Revenge, since that was the most (in)famous.
OK, my turn. Metal Gear was first released on what system (and no, not the NES)?

Well the American release was on the NES, but I do seem to recall that it came out in Japan first (duh). I think it was either the Nintendo Family Computer or the MSX2. Actually I was thinking of Bachelor Party, but obviously I'll accept that answer.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia I'm going to guess level 10.
EDIT: Oh and I'm not too much a fan asking questions, I just prefer to answer them. If I'm right, whoever comes next feel free to ask a question.

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia Mine came with Combat.

That's right but the answer I'm thinking about isn't one of the secret levels

Re: Happy Fun Time Trivia Looks like the level to be in to actually get to the pacman level is E3M7. Is that it?
