i like to imagine our mouse friend met another mouse, had a family, and is telling his kids about the time he survived the day his house started moving, being taken to a whole new world, and then being lifted into the air by a giant. Hope our mouse friend his having the time of his life right now.

Dude i hope the mouse is still alive
amber sugar pfp ??
what should we name it? i think it looks like a gary
I know this is completely off topic but bro
As soon as I started playing cookie run I see it EVERYWHERE
..I’m not complaining about it though
I would love to see a part two. Seeing a time-lapse of the restoration is super fascinating, especially when you document what work goes into it and everything.
Nice to see someone who's also played ppt out in the wild
Hey! you beat me to comment this. I would like to see the follow up, it was a super interesting project. Cheers!
I agree, I would like to see how the cabs go
But we aren't getting part 2 for a while. Cause
A) restoring one is going to take a long time
B) this is costing a lot of money, so gonna take time to get the cash and have enough to live
No part 2 unfortunately as he's sold the cab
That mouse is such a cute bastard. He had his time of his life adventruing somewhere he never knew.
All he did was release a potential infestation into the community should have killed it
Wish he kept em he was so cute
Im imagining an alternate reality where the mouse was never found, and now him and luke are playing on this thing, rocking this lil guys home, and im just picturing that meme with the guys being thrown around in the back of a car
Obviously this could never happen, even if the sandblasting and painting wasnt a part of the process, but let me dream, dammit
I mean, if he chose to not clean it he probably would have lol. I imagine the mouse getting angry at “noisy upstairs neighbors “
When you blast music with the volume equivalent of 15 generations krakatoa level diarrhea
Well, there was actually a reasonable chance the mouse left to get food and hid out somewhere as he was cleaning. When it was all assembled the mouse finally goes back to his home and builds a new nest in the shiny interior
Isn't that the plot of a tom and jerry episode?
@@RealityRogue so they can dance together😊😊😊
I know I shouldn't be laughing about this, but the idea of KK seeing the previous owner spraying their par and then going, "I should do that too" is so hilarious it's like a lemming seeing one jump off and deciding to follow.
i always love seeing the old arcade stuff be re-built and re-use.
it's a very satisfying feeling to see the finished project.
it's sad when arcade machines just get thrown out, or mis used
As an arcade technician I've had to do the throwing out of arcade games, some are harder to throw out than others. I felt really bad about having to junk a Time Crisis 4 cabinet, also felt bad about the pair of Sega Rally games. Not too sad to see the old skee ball games go, though.
where is the other video??? i cant find it
Congratulations on the boyfriend! How expensive do they tend to be, and would you recommend them as a long term project?
thank you for the laugh
@@planetclue answer the question clue!!!!1!! >:(

@@planetclue seriously, I need to know. how expensive do boyfriends tend to be and can you get a refund? also how does one get the promotion to husband
@@planetclue lol
I was there to watch this saga unfold
It was real amusing to see Evan and Luke get all sentimental about the mouse

Great timing, I literally just watched the DDR controller video yesterday
hey great taste
coolio

Valiskibum94 x kkclue (not a ship but a crossover)
he's playing the good dance game everybody watch out
also bless vampliers
long time no see
HI CAL!!!
hi gamers!!
Whoa, I never thought you'd give shout out to Pio.
He's 8 y/o right now and has been playing for 4 years (no joke, you heard me right)
Me and plenty of Pump players here in Indonesia often played around with him during weekends and he always surprised us with how he keeps getting better (not to mention he often ask me to play Co-op or ask whether a certain level 20 songs are on par with his skills)
Love seeing the restoration process, very satisfying indeed and congrats on owning your PIU cab!
yeah man pio is awesome. hope y'all in indonesia are doing well!
@@planetclue just saw this and im in indonesia to, and like rhythm games, thanks kk
Here I am, I'm not far from double that kids age and I've NEVER played any DDR like games besides FNF.
This guy is the calmest person I've seen when it comes to a mouse in a machine or something
There is a song named 'Cabinet man' about a guy combining himself with an arcade and i like to think that the mouse in the ddr pad is the closest irl thing to that song

Having help is the biggest difference you can make. Unfortunately I was alone in trying to restore my GX pads when I bought them, and I spent about 30 hours over two days and only got a tiny fraction of what youve got done done. Now that I see how nice it looks coated I want nothing more than to do a complete tear down and re-restore all over again.
Awesome video, keep it up.
Epic update since mice are talked about in this video: Clue now has a pet mouse called Mira and she is adorable
worlds first rhythm gamer mouse. give him one of the dancepad coasters and let him go to town.
He should be the new mascot
i am a HUGE sucker for 'imma buy an electronic and make it nice for me', i love electronics so much. Would love to see more vids on the restoration project. a few moments of silence for your pipes when you took the parts for their bath time lol.
You know someone's cracked at DDR when they actually use the bar
I'm not very good at the game but I use the bars, mostly bc im not very fit so it's just convenient
I’m too short to use the fucking bar 😭😭😭😭
3D printing your own parts, that made me go "aww sick" when watching. This is really cool and I love that you dedicated a lot of love into a niche interest. Came to your channel about a year ago because of animal crossing but stayed because all your content is pretty good!!
I didn’t think I’d be this invested in the process of restoring an arcade game but here I am, hoping for a part two
I love how the dance pad is basically just a mouse mansion inside.
i love the little mouse friend i hope he can tell all his new mouse friends how he lived inside an arcade cabinet and traveled to your apartment and got set free
This was quite interesting even though I don't play rhythm games myself. I'd love a part two 😄
I hope we get an update on this, i love seeing this sort of restoration.
I've tried playing Pump It Up. But in goddamn Mississippi (poorest state ever), all of the arcade cabinets have unresponsive pads. If only every arcade here would hire you for repairs.
That would be really nice!
I loooove watching this kinda stuff, its so cool that you're learning it as you go and giving people tips too! There's something really beautiful about making old things new again, especially when there's a passionate community behind it too. Even though it's still very expensive to restore something, maybe sometimes even more so than buying it new, it's just so good for the world to make use of what of what already has been made before letting it go to waste.
I loved everything about this and the mouse story was wholesome af.
This was so fascinating! I’d love to see more documentaries of your projects!
I feel like you should affix a plush mouse to the cabinet to pay tribute
My parent's house was in the country and used to get field mice in it fairly often. I always found them so cute so I can completely see how fast you get attached lol
yo i love this video
there is something so satisfying about refurbishing something and giving it new life, this is so well put together and makes me wanna think about my niche interests and what i can breathe new life into
I would love to see more of the restoration process! It's fascinating stuff
Your boyfriend and u working togheter is nice
I'm on the cleaning part. Let me give you 2 INSANELY helpful tips
1. you can rent a shopvac from Home Depot for super cheap.
2. any type of hardcore Degreaser should be your go-to for cleaning. Since sitting dirt tends to get super stuck on
I've been into my own DIY for a long while now, enough to binge all the CZcams videos on the tools I could ever possibly want during DIY, but I have never heard of Vampliers or Vampire Tools. Those are insanely cool, I'm definitely adding those guys to my Christmas list
It's so good to see you back, Clue! 🥺 This was a wonderful way to start off a new Monday 😊
Bit of advice, acetone works extremely well at removing stickers, decals, and any kind of sticky residue. Just be sure to wash it after putting acetone on it, since if it's a strong acetone, it can melt plastic
Great video as always! I was completely blown away by the editing and I could tell how incredibly passionate you were when making this video. I hope you and your bf the best of luck on this musical journey!
Do we have an update of the cabinet? It already looks great and I'm interested to see how it changed over the year.
I would love to see more! This is really interesting, seeing things get cleaned and sandblasted is relaxing, and it’s aspirational as someone who has dreamed of owning something like this for years.
Omg can't wait. Also, are you ever going to do on of those animal crossing villager transformations, or is that over?
He's done with those forever
He's given up on mod makeover.
@@jayeaaaaa that's so sad :( was there an announcement/explanation uploaded somewhere? That's literally what brought me to the channel and subbed for :(
@@StormBurnX long story short nintendo threatened to take me to court for making mod makeover, and i completely lost interest after that
@@planetclue oh that's horrible :( sorry to hear you got hit with that, understandable why you'd stop
Cool stuff man! Always awesome to see someone new join the arcade cab club! Definitely lots of supportive people around to guide you in the right direction. If you ever need help, don’t ever be afraid to reach out and ask! We love seeing games get a second life!!
Part 2 please! I would love to see you keep on restoring it! It’s pretty entertaining on itself (I’m easily entertained and it shows lol) and even better with your cool video style! Good luck with this project if you want to keep working on it or other crazy new projects of yours ;)
I can't stop watching this video plz do more in the future! I love seeing restoration videos and this one detailing all the steps is amazing!
Oh my gosh I'm so happy the algorithm directed me here, I enjoyed this so much! I know absolutely nothing about DDR or arcade machines and yet this was so engaging and fun to watch. So much hard work! I checked out some of your other videos and sure enough, you've gained a subscriber :) hope you're having a great day!
Thanks for showing us your progress! I also like how you showed your setbacks, you can learn a lot from mistakes.
Just went back and watched your controller video earlier today! So cool to see you dive into the restoration process! Pls keep us all updated
I can’t explain how much I love this channel it makes me make noises like “awawawawawawa”
This vid rules! Definitely worth the undertaking and I hope the cabinet gets ton of use.
Hey, scratched plastics that are smooth/transparent? Use Nu Tone Scratch doctor and then buff pads on a power drill UwU. We use that alot at my work for laptops, consoles, etc. Also make sure that it the plastic has an image on top like a decal that lights up that the image isnt on the top where your polishing but on the bottom or you'll sand away the decal :3
I really love this video for an enviromental/ living reason as well. It shows just how much work goes into something that we forgot to take care of. It's so much more effort to save this than it was to just keep it clean regularly. Thank you so much for doing this, pouring life into a machine that would have just gone to landfill.
THE PLUSH IS SO CUTE AAAA why si this the only piece of youtuber merch that's actually good
Dude I didn't know you played Pump it up, that must have been a lot of work restoring it
Fun Fact: The best way to remove rust off the metal (at least according to me) is by using vinegar
I really appreciate your candor when it comes to processes youre not familiar with and how youre willing to just dive right in so you can teach yourself
i always love having ur videos show up in my sub feed
quick question would it be possible to get a enamel pin of the mouse
I had a similar experience to this getting into gamecube controller restoration and customization, crazy how helpful strangers are in these communities! Also crazy how disgusting old tech gets :)
this is such a sweet and cool project! I'm glad I found your channel!
9:12 love the Ub funkeys sound effects, super classic!!!
Honestly your video has been really inspiring me. I've been wanting to give my consoles a new body, get a 3D printer and print out a new model for it or even make a wood based model for my consoles (Like them 70's style). Thank you for such a fun video, and thank you for inspiring me
Not only are you lucky that your brother had a 3D printer you’re lucky he had one that can print flexible, those tend to be a lot of work and quite expensive
This was a very interesting experience to watch! I’m actually a part of a rhythm games club at my school! We maintain a cabinet for our club and a lot of the things you’ve done in this video are very familiar to me. (especially the whole pouring your wallet into it haha) It was so fun to watch you learn from this whole experience, and I am so glad you found the rhythm gaming community online. They (as well as our club alum) have always been a big help whenever we need advice on cab maintenance. It’s always really cool to find another person who is just as into these cabinets as we are:) Good luck with your build, and I hope everything goes smoothly! I can’t wait to see the finished product!
This is a very cool video. I love the feel of community throughout the video, with the number of people helping you and you thanking them. Also, great job on the restoration.
You should teach that mouse how to cook a soup instead of letting him free 😂
Absolutely excellent work :) Looks fantastic.
Projects like these bring so many people together, I love the Internet.
I absolutely love these types of videos! Please continue this
i came for satisfying cleaning, and came out with the knowledge of sandblasting and flash rusting. neat video
7 or so rewatches, 9 months and I just now realized you said "Vampliers" instead of "Van Pliers" and I figured vans just had tons of stripped screws so these were made for repair
Lets goooo!!!!
it looks amazing, especially for your first restoration!!!
can't wait for you to document the rest it's really cool
(also your plushie is adorable, ofc it is your mascot is adorable)
Would absolutely love for the rest of the project to be documented. I find it really interesting!
normal people when they see a mouse: AAAAAAAAAAAAAH KILL IT KILL IT
kkclue, literally a cat, when sees a mouse: awwwww cute :3
As an owner of two Namco Motocross Go arcade machines, restoration work isn't easy. Had these two for nearly two years and still they aren't in a playable state yet (missing parts).
Also, did this machine have the original computer and does it work. The said game I mentioned had the original boards both working but with no monitors.
PLEASE document more of this it's so interesting
i love this so much !! please continue to make more videos about this cabinet
I'm pretty sure Engineer makes the Vamplier pliers, they are both high quality.
He has a boyfriend??!!
._. spoylers
I really enjoy these kinds of videos, hyped for part 2.
modding communities are so weirdly welcoming and helpful, like im a self concious dumbass that doesnt wanna say "how do i do x?" but if i make the smallest question people genuinely do all they can to make whatever issue i was having stop
I imagine in a alternate universe where kkclue kept the mouse and later bought him a friend
I like how you solved the bracket problem for the old pads. And nice job on restoring an old cab like that. This was fun to watch. Also, what version did it come with cause I'm guessing that it only had an MK6 motherboard. Thinking of getting an MK9 and either Pump XX or whatever the new version that should be coming soon? And keep us updated with the game.
Also, cute mouse. If ya had kept it you should have named it BanYa.
4:36 That spray technique is... Something lmao
This was a super fun video to watch! Hope to see more of this project!
"Ask for help"
>doesn't go to home depot because "ew outside"
>could've gotten help at home depot
>probably would've been faster if you just went instead of look online
Introvert problems
Any update on this project??
would love a part 2! this is awesome!
Wow. Did not expect myself to watch the whole video but then I got hooked up. Great video my guy. Can’t wait for the next one
Imagine buying an arcade game and getting a free pet
you so wholesome not hurting the mouse, If I could thumb up this video a million times I would
Would love to see more of the restoration process, this is a sick cab
This was my first time watching your channel and I absolutely feel in love with it!! You have done such and great job!!
who says gay people can’t engineer
Too many people is the correct answer.
He kinda looks like kapi from fnf
What's funny is i never have gotten recommended videos about rhythm games until the college I go to bought a Pump It Up machine for our game room.
Looking forward for a part two!!! You did a nice restoration :))
He has a bf. This news fills my heart with joy.
Let's be honest. The only reason he made this video "on time" Is to promote the KK plush. 😜
makeship gave me a deadline and i had to meet it
Lol. I love that you are back! Make an entire video series.
Do more! I love these types of videos and restorations!
