hmmm...dont remember that one. i remember Nick Arcade and i think they air or at least used to air an even older videogame gameshow on G4/Tech TV. sounds neat though!
speaking of videogames...Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas and i have a date tonight.

Is that the one where the kids had to play arcade games to go on to the final level where they magically put you in a video game and you had to dodge aliens and shit? 'Cause that show was awesome.

nick arcade... oh HELL yes. in those days i definetly lived in an all-nintendo household, so all the sega games were really weird to me.

anyone remember captain power?

Yeah, I always loved that. I remember how I used to play the last level with paper versions of...okay, I don't know how to explain it. I was a weird kid who made board games and paper X-Men figures who could shoot lasers. I also had no friends.

yes.
FEEL THA POWWWAA!

Is that Ice-T?

That show was awesome. I remember that the contestants had to run through a human habitrail at the end with these velcro suits on, and they could velcro any games they found hidden along the trail to their suit and got to keep whatever stuck at the end. I used to sit around thinking of ways to maximize velcro efficiency were I to ever end up on the show.
