Can someone identify this old 80's arcade game "Herpes"?
Can someone identify this old 80's arcade game "Herpes"?
Stumbled upon an old video clip (from 1983) showing a coin operated game called "Herpes", no joke.
Here's a link to the video I found this in.
It's in a coin op cabinet that looks pretty custom, and the graphics look similar to Atari 8-bit graphics. My gut says this is a bespoke game, with an Atari buried inside (like the Exidy Max-A-Flex system)
Can anyone provide any more information on this?
Looks like it may be Ray Davies who is presenting the game in the clip. I'm doubting that he actually programmed it :)
edit: prob not, found the scene with Ray Davies https://youtu.be/S9HKI1dU_Yo?t=2767
0 0 ReplyAre you suggesting it's Ray Davies from The Kinks?? He would have been 38-40 at the time of the video, the guy in the video looks younger.
