The Vectrex fucking rules, when I started at the museum my boss had just gotten one with like 20 games, all boxed and complete with overlays, and it’s how I knew I was in the right place

One time I took a big drink of what I thought was water only to find out it was McDonalds Sprite. It completely resequenced my DNA from the ground up

Ohh yeah that makes sense! For some reason when they were new I confused Chu Chu Rocket with Sega Swirl and still mix them up now so I forgot color was even a component of it

Do you think the Sega Net Game logo was inspired by Quartet? The colors match up really well but it might just be a coincidence

We got a donation of a ton of TI-99 stuff and in it was a game I’d never heard of, Robot Runner. There is virtually no info about it and most of what I found was from the dev’s daughter. She didn’t even have a copy of it. The only other source was an eBay listing selling it for $2500!

Note: the D! Zone requires the registered version of Doom or Doom II. In that way it is similar to having sex with me

One of the ways I entertain myself as I accession these massive piles of software is to make the font on the tag absolutely massive for games with short titles. This accomplishes nothing and no one will see it

One time I drank an entire 1.5 liter of chardonnay and it was far and away the worst I’ve ever felt. Really taught me why Dionysus was depicted as such a capricious god

generally speaking, people should be eating way more candy than they do. next time you find yourself reaching for fresh produce at the grocery store, consider a bag of candy instead

We just moved our vintage tech museum to a new location, it’s beautiful but god there’s SO much that still needs to be done that it feels never-ending. Good luck with the store!

WHEN THERE’S TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Oh wow. Yes, very clever! Waterfall treasure! No one’s ever done that before. Lazy jackass

WHEN THERE’S NO TREASURE BEHIND THE WATERFALL: Wow. Too stuck-up to put treasure there huh? Too much of a fucking ICONOCLAST for that? Piece of shit. FUCK you

Have you seen the pinball doc Special When Lit? It was made just before pinball became cool again, and it is absolutely a grim, sobering look at the collector mindset
