A deep dive into the golden age of video arcade games. Each episode unpacks the history, development, and cultural legacy of a single arcade classic from the 1980s. Whether it was a blockbuster or a hidden gem, if it had a cabinet and took quarters, it's fair game. With a focus on real arcade releases, not home ports or prototypes, Coin Detected delivers detailed storytelling, behind-the-scenes developer insights, and smart analysis for the generation that grew up with CRT screens and joystick blisters. No fluff. Just pure arcade history, told like you were back in line at the mall food court waiting for your turn.
