Old-school arcade games were so protected that hacking is the only way to preserve them before all boards are dead, and the games are lost.
– an overview of famous old-school arcade games
– their incredible hardware
– the permanent piracy
– the awesome protections (designed to commit suicide !)
– what was required to preserve some of them from being lost for ever.
This talk is a homage to Michael Steil’s Ultimate Commodore 64 presentation at 25c3: you should watch it, it’s inspiring in content and quality !
