I had played the NES version of Burguer Time, but I kinda remember not enjoying it that much because of the movement and how long the levels could take.

Game looks fun. Oddly enough, both it and Alex's avatar reminded me of this:

That was amazing! Sonic's a dick. LOL

For some reason I kinda liked the slower pace of the game. 

Burgertime is underrated.  Good classic arcade play.  Might not last for hours, but it's fun, and is as good as Frogger or Asteroids or any of those old classics.  Quite forgotten these days. 

It's supposed to have six screens but all the videos I've seen only show three. I wonder what's up with that. I guess I better get good at it to find out for myself.

BurgerTime is a very challenging game. Learning the patterns of the enemies or using techniques to get all the baddies bunched up together is your key to high scores.

I played the ColecoVision version of BurgerTime quite often. It's an excellent arcade translation. Originally, Mattel was planning to release games on the ColecoVision in a similar manner as they did on the Atari 2600. However, Mattel left the console market during the crash and gave Coleco the finished versions of BurgerTime and Bump 'n Jump to release for them.

Also, try the NES version. It's a very difficult version of the game. Right away, 6 enemies are after you and the game is very fast. You will be lucky to pass the third screen in this version.

Interesting. I caught a video on youtube where someone was explaining a very specific pattern... wait... here it is:

It amazes me how much thought some players give to these games.

I love BurgerTime!  As a kid, I would make my own chef hat and pepper shaker out of paper cutouts and play prettend BurgerTime.  Yeah this was back when kids used their imagination sometimes. :)

Did you know that in Japan, this game was originally called just "Hamburger?"  That's why the chef in the game has an H on his hat.

In Japan there's also a game called Super BurgerTime.  Look it up, it's really weird.

Yeah, Peter Pepper's Ice Cream Parlor isn't very good.  They also planned to make a third game called Peter Pepper's PizzaTime, but that never came out.

I reviewed BurgerTime World Tour.  It's OK, but really the best update is BurgerTime Deluxe on the Game Boy.  Just stay away from The Flinstones: BurgerTime in Bedrock.  It's a Game Boy Color reworked version of Deluxe, except it sucks.

If I wasn't so lazy, I'd put a YouTube link up to one of the old BurgerTime commercials.  The hot dog peeks through the drive thru window and says, WE'RE CLOSED NOW!

Man I could talk about BurgerTime all day.  It was one of the few arcade games to pull me away from Pac-Man as a kid in the 80's.  But I'll stop rambling now!  --Cary

F'n A this commercial is wow! They show an Intellivision II console. My friend has one of those.

"We're closed now!"

Burger Time is a fun game.  My kids and I played it for a bit last year.

I think I must've played it in the arcade back in the day but maybe not. It was weird how certain games never made it to my area. Lots of the Konami games I never saw until I saw them on Xbox 360's Game Room.

Played a little BurgerTime when I was younger, wasn't that good at it at the time but I think I could do better now.

I wasn't into it too much at the time. I think there were games with more interesting graphics that I went to instead.

I remember playing this game, but I wasn't very good at it. I should give it another try on the 3DS

The handhelds are a good place for all of this arcade game stuff.

Now i remember this game. I use to play it a my area pizza hunt when I had the chance. I remember how a teenager told me to take it easy on the joystick. At that time I thoguht if I slammed on the joystick has hard as I could, I could make the chef run faster in the game.

How silly I was back in my youth!

Seems like a logical assumption. Push harder, run faster. Why not.

I don't remember where or when I played the arcade cabinet, but I'm sure I did at least once.
