The History of Dragon's Lair 2022 REMASTERED - Arcade console documentary

They had this game at my local mall's arcade in the mid 80's. The graphics were incredble at the time but I recall nobody ever being able to successfully play it.

I want cry now im 42 now and i still think this is best animation ever made in adventure game. I love this series. And i love Daphne, and Prin Prin Princes from Ghost and Goblins version on TurbografX16 :D (pc engine is someone dont know).

To this day I've never got past the first screen on Dragon's Lair.

Ohhhh man... princess daphne... she definitely awakened something inside me as a kid.

Holy crap...I played the EXACT SAME CABINET that you did at ShowBiz Pizza in Davenport. I bounced between that one and the one in East Moline by the Cinema as much as my parents would let me. Pretty sure between those two places and Aladdin's Castle in Southpark Mall, I probably could have paid for college hahaha.

Such a small world!

Edit: also, OMG that "...after these messages..." still gets sung in my house daily...like, even today...

Very well done.

Getting the high score on Pac Man: Awesome.
Beating the bass player for Van Halen and getting the high score: Priceless.

Dragons Lair: The original Dark Souls.

I would finish Timewarp with one quarter, with people watching like wtf! 😂

I love this video game. It cost .50¢ to play while all the other arcade games cost .25¢ to play. Fun game

Great video Pat... though, the very first few pics, specifically of the jewish dudes playing at the arcade, the way his right leg is bent around his left leg... looks, odd? Am I... umm.. confused for no reason here?

thank you for the awesome trip down memory lane - this game will remain as one of the all time best games of all time time - LONG LIVE DRAGONS LAIR!!

I still have dvd one.

So many memories!

yeah, i eventually could play this on two quarters. no problem.

I'm also from the Quad cities. This is definitely my favorite game of all time. I now own the iiRcade version of it. Awesome vid thank you.

I'd love. To watch this but can't take. The narrator sorry.

Incredible episode.

Let's give a hand for that voice over for Dragon's lair commercial.

I love how this game both pokes fun at and respects traditional masculinity. Plus you actually get a reward. Unlike say Mario Odysse. Her Daphne is so over joined to be saved she leaps into his arms and plants a big wet one on Dirk.

I got to play this when I visited port huron. Much later though, in the 90s.

I'd like to hear more about one of my favorite era's of arcade gaming. The era's of Sega model 3, naiomi and hikaru.

Sadly while for its arcade use this was a classic, but this QTE crap has ruined so many video games since.

Exactly--you'd put in 50 cents and would be out of lives almost immediately. This game was a total grift. It looked great, though.

The 80s were a magical time.

It bugs me to this day that Dragon's Lair 3D was never ported for backwards compatibility on the newer consoles. I had/have it for the original Xbox and love that game but haven't been able to play it since.

One of my fondest childhood memories
Blowing almost all of my paper route money between the game and the dragon's lair collector stickers. Covered my entire dresser to the dismay of my dad. He laughed at my obsession with the game 😂😂

The King of The lasergame…..Thank you Don Bluth😉👍

oh i used to like the saturday morning cartoon

@PatmanQC - History of arcade game documentaries As you know, The Secret of Nimh had Got Crap Past The Radar with a scene with mild profanity.

Nothing better than completing the final fight with a crowd watching. Yep....the talent was passed down

Daphne….the porn star of video games of the 1980’s

Pat I think there's still some work to be done on this remaster. You didn't cover the arcade sequel and the Amiga sequels.

👉👍👍👍👍

It's about the journey of the spermatazoa towards the egg

rw:wasnt there a sequel to Dragons Lair like Dragons Lair 2 PatmanQC?

Is it really fair to compare(slam?) the game running on a $200 console against it running on the original $4000 arcade box?

Great video for an asesores game, but I think you forgot to mention other parts of the game released in platforms like PC, and I thikk that you algo forgot to talj about the sequel, Dragons Lair Time Warp, for arcade and other platforms, algo a great game.

I was nine, wasted more quarters just because of the animation and awe. I was terrible at it, ha.

19 seconds is that MichaelAnthony of Van Halen?

"Short, sweet queefs" lmao! ...You kill me Patman!

Took like me 3 months to finished dame thing. But finally I did it . And only my friend said it is my turn now

Would have been fantastic to see a full length Dragon's Lair film with the same quality animation.

One of those crt tvs had to have fallen on someone at least once

I remember i bought the phillips cdi just to get dragons lair..lol i want that tabletop game cant find any tho

I had the original arcade Laserdisc with a text-based interface for the Atari ST. The action would pause at each sequence and you'd pick one word for an action in the first section, two words in the second, and three words in the third.
