I think I started basing my pedopile stereoptypes on him right around the part where he looked the kid directly in the eyes and said "What other types of games do you like to play?"
But seriously, is that Ernie Hudson up in that bitch?

Explaining old games in general is kind of awkward, as some stand-up comedian on Comedy Central pointed out. "Well, you're this little man...and there's a monkey! And he throws barrels at you! And you have to save the princess!" "You're this big dot, and you have to eat the smaller dots. And there are ghosts! Quick, grab the cherry!"
Any person who hadn't heard of Donkey Kong or Pacman would think you're crazy. Not to mention all the trippy elements of Super Mario Bros...

he sounds really creepy, like hes trying to lure that kid into his van
"you know video games are fun, but i got some cool video games in the back of my van and puppies and candy. Wanna see?"

@Necros:
True, but usually I think that the whole "left to go left and right to go right" thing needs no explanation.
My favorite moment of that entire clip is when the kid chimes in with "Down's not really used." He's a goddamn expert at the importance of "down" in various video games. The kid actually sounded mad at the suggestion that one would press down while playing Donkey Kong.

I stand corrected, its Keith David from Pitch Black. Either that, or I'm really, really racially insensitive.
Side note: as far as comedic strip-mining of that era of cartoons is concerned, the single best cartoon reference in history went down recently in Hot Fuzz. So much for old cartoons being played out.
By the power of Grayskull...
And was it just me, or did the chef totally get you pumped up as he brought Mr. Rogers into his forbidden love den?

a friend of my family's (now we sort of don't talk to him) had a donkey kong machine. the furthest i got, on unlimited quarterss, was the 6th level. credit to fred, who i saw more than my own dad for the first three years of my life, for showing how playing games is fun. i miss that man.
you're all special in your own way, every one.

You know, for a good 5 seconds, I was like "Who the hell is Fred Rogers?" I can't believe I blanked on that. I also apparently don't read post titles well.
I wish I'd met Mister Rogers. Not while playing Donkey Kong though, because I'd rather not shout "FUCK" into his ear 47 times.
Someone track down that kid.

Mr. Rogers was awesome. No one can make fun of Mr. Rogers.
Meow-meow Kitty OTOH... Fair game.
What a pussy.

The two staples of any great childhood were Mr. Rogers and Captain Kangaroo back in the day. Looking back at that kid in front of the DK machine, I gotta laugh and remember that we looked and talked like that back then.
Autistic sounding or not, if Fred Rogers had me on the show as a kid, and offered me a part playing Donkey Kong, It would have been "on like neckbones"

There should be more people out there like Mr. Rogers. Maybe then the world would be a better place.
Man, the world is so much worse off now that Mr. Rogers is dead. What a sad, sad places this is.
I do admit, looking at that now, with the way the world is now, he's kinda creepy. He's the guy you'd tell your kids to watch out for. But back then, he was just a nice guy who liked to teach kids things and learn stuff, and that was alright.
God, I wanna go watch some more Mr. Rogers and find some Captain Kangaroo. Maybe some old-school Sesame Street (back before it started sucking balls). I'm off to Google Video to re-live a bit of my childhood. Toodles!

Hey Keith, how about next time you wait 45 seconds until my fucking game is finished before you kick me off the machine to collect the quarters? Dick.
Also, I have it on good authority that King Friday totally owned at Asteroids.

If things have gotten so homophobic that Mr. Rogers is considered creepy now I guess this world really is gettin screwed up. Sesame Street, Mr Rogers, and Where in the World is Carmen San Diego FTW.
Yep, Keith David plays Keith the Carpenter. He also voices the Arbiter in Halo 2, and does the Navy commercial voiceovers. He's been in a bunch of shit, come to think of it... He's no Cowboy Curtis, but he's pretty cool.
Ha ha ha - Super Mario Bros. the Carpenters... I wonder what kind of gameplay that would bring.
And second the thought... WAIT FOR ME TO FINISH MY DAMN GAME, BEFORE YOU COLLECT THE QUARTERS! Dayum.

"When you wanna go this way you push it this way, and when you want to go that way push it that way". Hahahaha. Kids are funny...unless they're closer than twelve feet away from me.
