Was playing a bit of Stunt Car Racer for the Amiga this week, from 1989, and wondered how far back people are going!

I went to Sakura Con this year and they had a Quick & Crash arcade cabinet from 1999.

It's not the oldest game I've played this year, but it was definitely the most interesting!

Level 4 has a mug you shoot that appears to really explode

The effect is incredibly convincing!

Tap for spoilerThe secret is the real mug is pulled down very fast and real chunks of mug are shot up simultaneously
