RETRO GAMING: PLAYING the ARCADE GAMES of the SOVIET UNION ☭
In this video, Comrade George and I visit the Museum of Soviet Arcade Machines in Saint-Petersburg. While western teens in the 70’s and '80s were obsessing over Pac-Man and Donkey Kong, their Soviet counterparts were playing arcade games meant to prepare them for war. At the time, video games weren't easily accessible in the Soviet Union. So the government fashioned them from refrigerators and calculators with the goal of training young Soviets for combat. The Museum has about 40 authentic soviet arcade machines which were released in 1970's-90's. Join us on this adventure to the soviet past! ————— I hope I was able to produce something that you find interesting!
