I know this has been flying around all weekend, but in case you haven’t seen it yet, enjoy a nostalgic trip back in time and watch a whole bunch of deaths in old video games, in a video from BoingBoing. See how many you can name:
HT: BoingBoing
Pixels Of Death
How do you not include Super Mario Bros or Donkey Kong? Good times, otherwise.
Needs more Grue
Clearly I spent too much time watching my brother play video games when I was a kid.
And I find it kind of funny, I find it kind of sad.
Thanks Hurricane Ditka for the info about “Chip World”! Love it.
This vid was great but def made me a little sad. You know, kind of like a death of my childhood thing!
Luckily the music for this vid is on soundcloud

Paper Boy. I have been playing that for 25 years and I never get any better.
Perry, now this is a great find mate. I hadn’t seen this before, ah the memories.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned from YouTube – or better yet been reminded of – is just how shitty the games were when I was a child, but also how much I loved those damn things.
DOUBLE DRAGON! I miss that game too much. Defender,Gauntlet. Pole Position – which I thought was a shitty game at the time it came out. The old stand alone Tron game. Good old Robocop – which I also loved way too much. Fucking ZAXXON, which I have not seen in 20 years. Fucking NARC! The game my parents shit a brick over when they learned how violent it was. Sheesh.
Wow that was awesome.
I saw Battlezone, Galaga, Space Invaders, Asteroids, Alien, Ghouls n Ghosts, MK, Street Fighter, and Zombies Ate My Neighbors.
Might be another in there I could name but mighta missed it.
double ditto on the 8-bit Mad World, amazing
Ditto on the “Mad World” holy shit!
Holy shit 8-bit “Mad World”!
