8-Bit Generation Playing the Revolution Documentary Trailer

Post by MattJay »

I had no idea this movie was even in production. As a fan of video game history I'm stoked. Some of these interviews are awesome like Nolan Bushnell and Ralph Baer.

Here's the trailer.

Me neither, thanks for posting. It looks all shades of awesome.

Apparently, it's a series:

I remember that dude 2:30 he was on G4 icons most often. I forgot his name, his hair has aged a bit in color. When is this 8-bit generation coming out? I saw "50 documentaries you have to see before you die" starring Morgan Spurlock. On one of the episodes Morgan Spurlocks meets up with Billy Mitchell at his arcade. Billy didn't have a donkey kong arcade cabinet at that location.

there are 5 episodes to this documentary, each running around 60 minutes

Sorry, "Playing the revolution" was deleted at 5:58:31 Mon Jun 6, 2011. We have no more information about it on our mainframe or elsewhere.

Yeah me too. I saw him and thought "Damn, he's getting old."

ICONS was my favorite show on G4.

Has anyone heard anything about this apart from its dead. Paid for the Blue Ray edition a long time ago.

Dose anybody know what happened to the footage they did shoot. Some of it would be quite valuable like the Jack Tramiel interview which I may be wrong but I believe they had shot.
