TheHobGoblin Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 I went to Nathon's in New York sunday and after my family and I ate we went to the arcades as usual. I went to my usual cop shootin/dodging game (forgot the name) My brother went to the SW Trilogy Arcade. So after we had our time there my brother was still playing the Arcade. When he finished he told me that there was some kind of secret message. I was like "What!?" He responds "In one of the tie fighters exsplosions at the Endor fight, If you look really hard (Best to do this with the last tie) you can see the word... Insert more coins..." Now I gotta check this out later, yet could we be getting the same messages in other arcades.....? *eriee music plays* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crow_Nest Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 I never seen any message, isnt that an old game? So there might be something wrong with the game or screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sivy Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 yeah, more than likely the 'insert more coins' screen has been burnt into the monitor. thats why they invented screen savers, although nowadays screensavers are just for fun as newer monitor don't have that problem.

Astrotoy7 Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 That game is cool....there is one ata nearby arcade, I have a play quite often....it is quite reminiscent of "Rebel Strike' on the GC on some levels.... I doubt theres any hidden messages, most likely SIVs explanation is true.... BUT did I mention that if you put the Gamecube's "Rebel Strike" into a normal CD player, it plays 3po saying GEORGE LUCAS IS SATAN backwards..... yeah, really....

jokemaster Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 I think they burnt the message into the screen on purpose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IG-64 Posted February 2, 2004 Share Posted February 2, 2004 maybe he just saw the reflection of another screen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHobGoblin Posted February 3, 2004 Author Share Posted February 3, 2004 It wasn't me who was playing it, I'll check it out though when I play it again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkLord60 Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 It isnt burned in the screen because Monitors and screens have newer special technology that prevents screen burn. If it is it must be an older game unless you are talking about the one that came out a few years back. I deal with computers and monitors and our schools CPU's are constantly kept on with no screensaver and I've never seen screen burn but I could be wrong seeing how I don't know much about arcade systems.

Nerd_Annhilator Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 The explosions! they tell me messages! like "Damn you!" and "LOL, N00B!" and "OWNED!!!" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_PerfectAgent_ Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 It was probably burn-in. I've seen it on some arcade games even to 2001 I believe. I've seen the title screen and insert coins message burned in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheHobGoblin Posted February 3, 2004 Author Share Posted February 3, 2004 It is in the good 3D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
_PerfectAgent_ Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 I believe you're talking about the super deluxe version. There are two versions of the arcade machine, the deluxe one and the regular one (even though the deluxe was seen more! ). The deluxe one has the seat and the projection screen (worst victim of burn-in). The regular one (for arcades who have no room or are cheap ) has a CRT (I think, I dunno about arcade machines on that). Burn-in now only occurs on projection screens.

_PerfectAgent_ Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 This is the deluxe one. (Burn-in prone projection) This is the regular one, I believe it uses CRT... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crow_Nest Posted February 3, 2004 Share Posted February 3, 2004 Its an old game, so the monitor might be old too, thats why the message might be burnt on the screen. Same for the arcade i go to, the screen is damaged, and also there is a inssert coins message burnt. And its the same game (the deluxe one) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
