Just had a spare few hours finally to watch the 'insert coin' documentary. Absoluelty loved it. Nice to have a documentary based on the later era of video games from williams (midway). Lots of great moments in there. Thoroughly recommend it if not seen it yet. Eugene Jarvis is awesome 1f642.png

My favourite quote "I just paid 5 million for the midway name, so i'm going to *frikin use it ok!!"

only a few £ to rent/buy on iTunes at the mo aswell.

A few pinball mentions in there to and plenty of timeframe crossovers. Good to get the perspective from the other part of williams's business. As we only ever think about the pinball side, there was a whole other side to williams that also follows a very similar path on management structure of teams, innovation, key people, rise and fall etc.
 
Rented off YouTube, am about 20min in until kids got hold of TV, great so far. That above quote was fantastic lolol
 
Another one of my fav quotes was also gold 😍


“You know what makes a good game?

100 of those ****ing great ideas and now you have 1...”
 
Also good to hear from nick nicastro, that really gives it another angle and insight

“Go tell van damn to **** off”

ha ha ha
