I very rarely chime in, hardly even ever watch, read, the internet chatter. It is toxic for the soul. But Todd did such a great job on this video. The part where I dip him on the hand cart, and Hillary starts laughing is EPIC. great job Mr. Tuckey. another reason you are my mentor
Thank you Richie...we had alot of fun that day! The Hillary clip was a suggestion of my secretary Linda...she thought it would work well there!
I’m so happy I found tnt amusements on CZcams, I grew up watching the tnt infomercials like seeing an old friend. Bonus Richie knuckles too njhc scene from my youth.
Richie exemplifies the Hard Working American Small Business owner. We need more people like Richie.
Yes we do!
I think this is my favorite TNT video ever. I'm so glad there are people like you and Ritchie keep these games alive and looking better than new.
Thank you Ben! So glad you enjoyed it..took some 8 hours to edit and add stuff to it...so it was quite a project!
What a great guy and great kids. When you arrived i did not think i could dig his manic vibe but once he settled down and relaxed and the kids showed up he was such a chill guy!.
It’s been a long time since anyone cheered when i burst into a room so the kids entrance was cool.
Richie has quite an aura about him!
I spent untold amounts of quarters on a sinistar cockpit at a local arcade in 88/89. I guess there was an option for the operator to customize the attract because it said 'Big Chuck's Arcade' on the screen. I was 11. Love that game. I remember being hypnotized while playing it. The operator had all of the games super loud and the cockpit sinistar was incredible.
I found this guy from Ed Bassmaster. He is like a funny as hell forever positive dude. Thanks for sharing!
Omg the laughing skits
Glad you enjoyed the video...please subscribe!
To get creases out of paper/folded posters, start by ironing it, with TWO garments on it. If that doesn’t work, _tenderly_ try with one. A thinner second one may work best, which you’ll find out, during steps one and two...
Hope that helps, from current, Northern Central PA and former Philly resident, on Mifflin St., between 6th and 7th, just 25 years ago... ! 🍻
Sounds like a great tip! At the very least, your shirt gets ironed! Do you ever go back to the old neighborhood??
Excellent! I hope it helps, because those are some sweet-a posters, and it’s too bad they were sent, like that... especially to y’all, who are just awesome - and who I just found, a couple days ago, when CZcams suggested your clearance video (a couple/few days too late, unfortunately, although that may have saved my relationship, even though my girlie loves to watch me play some games... ). Plus, at least I’ve gotten to watch some hours of awesome videos, since, and am looking forward to many more (I’m not often up, past 5AM, watching CZcams)... and, yeah, you will get some shirts ironed, out of the gig, too! As funny, in the comments as in your videos - hahahahaha...
I love the old neighborhood and have been back, a couple/few times, but not for awhile, unfortunately. I’m actually looking to go back, again “soon.” It was gonna be _sooner,_ but now it’ll have to be as soon as possible, after this Coronavirus thing is no longer a threat - so that I can enjoy me some 6th St. bars. Plus, now, I’d love to make a stop there, on the way down or the way back, too! Your place looks like a dream about my yoot that I can actually visit - which you don’t see, every day, but would love to...
Speaking of, I looked at your website, last night, for some merch - ‘cause I really wanted a tee-shirt, at least (which I’m sure tons of people would love... ) - but I found something waaaaaaay better! It’s now be my dream to do a private party rental of your little slice of heaven, for my birthday, in September... My time, in Philly, was with a band called “Punch Drunk” (who won three straight Delaware Valley Music Awards, in the Techno-Industrial category, from 1993-1995) which is not to brag, but to begin to say how I’m sure the group and co. would love to go there, for a party. We’re not quite so raucous as in the mid-nineties, and so nothing to worry about... 😂😂😂 Back then, the lead singer and I had made one song, based on sounds sampled from the Super Nintendo versions of _Alien vs. Predator_ and _Super Street Fighter II,_ which have secret codes you can enter, to bring up the test menus and play the individual game sounds and music riffs... So, if that’s any indication, you know it’d be a it’d be a trip back, to all our yoots!
Anywho, again, I hope that ironing works out well, for you, and you’ll hear from me, sometime soon-ish (unless I’d need to make reservations, like, now, which I wouldn’t doubt... ) about the idea of booking a party, in September - if that’s cool. Plus, I’m still hoping to drop by, on the way back down, to or from Philly... 🍻 Rock on!
I have only been watching your videos for a few months now and wanted to say thanks for all the time you put into these videos. It takes a lot of time not only to record them, but edit and upload them is well. Just like this one, they are always funny, entertaining but also informative. Great job to you and all your staff.
Thank you so much for your comment! It is very much appreciated as we do put lots of effort into these videos to entertain folks...this video took some ten hours--filming, editing, putting in the clips....but we feel its a fun production that will inform and entertain for years to come! Keep watching and make sure you subscribe! Thanks again!
Todd, your videos are honestly more entertaining then anything on television atm. And now your bringing rock stars on the show! Lol great vid guys. Thanks. :)
Thank you...your comments are really appreciated! Glad you enjoy our vids!! Make sure you have subscribed!
Great video great ideas too with the mine craft pinball and bear tap in the arcade.
Yes...a Minecraft pinball would bring the younger crowd into pinball!
An elusive Richie sighting! Glad to see he is still busy and having a good time. Runs a great arcade too.
He was so busy with KONG OFF...but now he is around again! Last Friday , we filmed that--it runs 75 minutes but we were there three hours!
man this is awesome, those kids are so lucky to get to do something creative like this with their dad. that minecraft pinball game is actually really impressive.
Yes...its nice to be able to get the children excited about the arcade industry!!
28:40 Is a very special moment. 🤣🤣🤣
Richie is a great guy. Going to his arcade soon.
As you can see, he's also a family man!
Richie is a stand up guy. His "legend" status is obvious but he's also a real class act and does a lot for a lot of people. Been to a few Kong Offs, been to his place in Flemington a few times, and traded arcades with him. He took me and my friend in the first time he met us like we were old friends. He gets too busy to send a guy a message now and then but that's about it lol. Great guy, done GREAT things for our hobby and has one of the best arcades i've ever seen. Hope to get up north again soon and if so I hope to be able to visit TNT too. PS...these thumbs downs..this won't stand Todd.
Yes...the video allows people to understand Richie a little better! Richie and I should have a show together!
Game Plan Pot of Gold...I love that game! Every once in a while the game would get stuck on tone during the screen changes when the Irish music would kick in.
I never played one..I understand its similar to Leprechaun though, which I like!
It's the same game only with a different name. It was one of those from the wave of "cute" games back in the early '80s. Whenever I saw one, I had to play it.
Such a tease, Todd! Showing us clips of Sea Wolf guy again... it only wets my appetite for Sea Wolf Guy part 3, which I fear we'll never get. :P
:-)
Great video! Another gem. We need more Richie Knuckles. You guys are awesome together.
Thank you Kurt!! We WILL do more videos together!!
Thanks!
After watching that video I cant sleep anymore, I fear Richie is in my wardrobe and start laughing there... .-)
My Richie!!!
Absolutely Brilliant! What a tour!. Very grateful for this video, awesome, I was glued to the screen.
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed it!! Please subscribe!
You and Ritchie are great together. The hammock fall ending was just precious. I know that wasn't scripted at all. Awesome video! ...and yes, please don't forget videos when the Disney trip comes. Thumbs up, you guys are truly great!!
We do film well together! Yes, the hammock wasn;t planned and all I could do while editing, it do a fake zoom toward it, so everyone would see it on first viewing! DIsney footage was filmed...Disneyquest!
Richie has some great rarer titles in there. Thanks for giving us a sneak peak guys.
Glad you enjoyed it!
That was such a great tour! The print shop was impressive!
Glad you enjoyed it!!
I love the Energy in this video, a great watch in so many ways, thanks for the upload.
Thank you...glad you enjoyed it!
That was one of the most honest videos Ive seen in years. Great great video guys.
Thank you!! We appreciate it!
Great Video Todd , and Richie and Family... Love too see some more.. Cant wait for next year and see what Richie has done..
Thank you Janet!!
Wow awesome looking congratulations to you both Todd Tuckey from TNT Amusements Frank Lindenmuth and Richie Knucklez Arcade games really cool looking video on CZcams oyea ;)!
You'll be there next time, Dave!
Hi Todd, great road trip video 😊
I love the passion you and Ritchie share for arcade machines.
My dad introduced me to arcade machines from a very young age, the first one I remember was space invaders, then in 1980 when I was 8 years young he gave me my first pinball machine, which was a bally El Toro.
Anyway keep up the great work and my family and I think you deserve your own reality show 😊
Thank you Anto!!!
Thank's you for the tour !! :D
Glad you enjoyed it!
Todd is always good for a great video and a good laugh. Comparing apples and oranges...lol. Todd needed a departing gift, that's code for damn Richie I could use one of those beers you just cracked open and didn't offer me one..... classic TNT fun.
Glad you enjoyed this video...we had fun filming ti..and hope to return!
Awesome as always thanks. Out of all the cool things on display the Agnostic Front cassette stole the show for me. Thanks for sharing that. I'd love to hear it. All the best to everyone.
:-)
haha, that got me a bit hot and bothered too
Great Collection ,and really an Enthusiast and very humble Person.
Loved It, and i got to say to Richie ,Father is not the one who makes the sons,is the one that made what they would be in the Future.

JOSÉ GONÇALVES

Thanks Shawn!
Shoot so awesome! Richie seems like a bad ass dude too. Great video!
Thanks! Watch the NEW Richie Knucklez video #1181 for LOTS of Richie!
I really enjoy watching your videos
Thanks!!
Nice tour of Ritchie's place.
Thank you!
Todd, you look like "Hannibal Lecter" on that hand trucks :) ... Anyway, nice video!!
heh heh heh heh!
another awesome video!
Thanks!! Glad you enjoyed it!
What kind of juice was Richie drinking?
Richie is always running on all 8 cylinders...that's his nature!!
TNT Amusements Inc
It's funny that you assume I was joking due to how high-energy Richie can be. My question was actually a serious one. In the video he drinks some green juice at 16:35 from a glass bottle. It looks like some kind of fruits combined with a bit of wheat grass. Do you know what is in it? Can you ask him for me?
Great advice on desoldering techniques, gotta try that out :-)
Yes...it surprised Frank and I also...caught us off guard...but we rolled with it!!
I doubt it since never get out much like I used to be able to cheers to you both oyea ;)!
Thanks Dave!!
Awesome Video! Two Great Legends
Glad you liked it!
Love your video`s you guys are always having a good time and laughing. Unlike the other clodhoppers that are always complaining.Two thumbs up.
Thanks....our videos are to entertain and teach...not to tear others apart! They are also aimed at families with kids who want to enjoy something together!
Hillary bobblehead lol, tell ritchie ill see him in chicago and he just earned my respect!!
He will read the comments and see!!
please introduce yourself in Chicago!
Great show as always.
Thanks!!
Wow, he's a pretty buzzy guy. Haha.
A mile a minute!
yeah thats the problem. he reminds me of myself. Take 5 taurine's in the morning and be off .... :P (pills they come in pills :P ) and can't blame me for 6 thumbs downs nope not happening.
Another great video! Keep it up guys!
Thank you Brian!
Awesome as always, please keep up the great work. No wonder you all seems so happy, I want a work like that too :)
All the best.
Rex
Thank you Sid!!!
Big Big Fan, Wow Boys Really Really cool Movie Love this kind Terrible. Thank you Thank you. Keep Tilting it! Boys
Thank you!!
Thumbs up.
Thank you!
Any single tube can be converged perfect in the center and in the corners, you only needs to buy and place crt magnet sticks, around the neck where the yoke is, the only thing that is, ¿How many time do you want to spend to reach perfection?
Step 1: do perfect purity/convergence in the center.
Step 2: IF all four corners are bad, Check for the perfect position of the yoke, maybe it is too far or near from the screen front. The best position is when the corners are the nearest possible as the quality of the convergence in the center, and the purity isn't altered.
Step 3: If one corner or two are bad, place magnet stick, in the angle place where the distortion is, when placed deeper into the neck. it will affect a larger area, when the magnet is moved more outside from the neck the affected area will be smaller. Try both side of the stick, try the stick in different angles to attack the deflection of differents guns and not the three at the same time.
Good pointers!
richie is such a metalhead. nuclear assault slays
My Richie!!
Oh my and she´s the next president... Great video!!!
Thank you!!
I love how this person didn't even notice how you said, "Ewww..." at the Hillary bobblehead doll and then showed her laughing maniacally when Richie pretended to drop you and then let out an evil laugh. To me it is obvious what your opinion is about her. I'll just say you seem to have a very well-informed opinion and leave it at that.
Ding Dong! The Witch is dead. Which old witch? The Wicked Witch!
theSammyM333
Soon...
Richie do you have a ......SEA WOLF!!!!! hahahaha
he must have one buried somewhere!
I still enjoy very much the Movie Posters guy, I mean they are in Mint condition but are just folded that's all! Lol. In addition is Richie always bouncing off the walls like that? Well Todd-A-Matic have a Fantastic weekend!!
Thank you!! Glad you enjoyed this video...took hours to edit and get together!
Coffee and Vegetable Mash, Colonopin as needed. (.5 the little ones!)
Richie has my vote :) Also, loved the editing on this video, it was Hillary-ous lol.
Glad you enjoyed the video...the Hillary footage was borrowed...credit at end where it came from!
Haha nice road blaster opening
Yes...great track and its not too long!
Alright... great video! I'll subscribe. Thanks for all your great insight that you've shared!
Thank you....glad you enjoyed it and subscribed! You are officially 13,410! Todd
Great video...Count me in for a Minecraft Pin Richie!!
Make sure you watch our Minecraft video too, Dave!
Richie looks like Jack Nicholson 😎
25:22 the goggles part was hilarious -- especially the video of the crashing biplane. Todd, your mouth was hanging open for half of this video, listening to Richie's either brilliant or insane ideas. This is honestly one of the most fascinating videos you have ever posted on your channel -- even Frank was speechless for most of it! Please don't wait a year to go back -- see where he is at in three months! Best wishes.
I just couldn't resist! As no mention of the goggles was ever said...and why he put them on in the first place...Curt was in office watching this footage and he suggested the old airplane crashing...which of course, I thought was pure genius!
I just about died when Richie was showing you the old lock and the little boy says "that is so 60s" 100 years off but still technically right though, Civil War so it would be 1860s.
I think he MEANT the 1860's!! :-)
Is that an IBM 5153 or 5154 monitor under that pong I see?
will have to ask Richie when I see him again!
the creaseless fold only done by Richie.
That's my Richie!
My friend Martin had 3 of those GP-Cocktails.....they are not as rare in Europe.
had or has?? Many have junked these old games when they go bad!
+TNT Amusements Inc not wr Todd...we are collectors :)
Nice Channel!
Thank you!
28:49 LMAO!
he's a CREEP!!
KEEP AMERICA GREAT 2020
Ender pearls do so it teleport and eye of ender leads you to the ender dragon
Good trivia!
you can see granny and the gator and baby pac-man next to each other at the Galloping Ghost Arcade in Brookfield, Illinois
ANother good reason to visit it!
TNT Amusements Inc yes indeed your place in on the top of my list
Great!
Very cute :)
Glad you enjoyed it!
Sea Wolf!
ahhhh...the Sea Wolf guy! Gotta love him!
More sea wolf guy! Loved that video!
SINISTAAAAAAAAAR!!!!
RUN! COWARD!
(I really like Sinistar. I have a problem. Some day I'll own one...)
I HUNGER!
and also kirk Hammett wasn't on that song cliff was and before 2 or 3 years till kill'em all!
At 1:09:22 there's an Atari VCS 1977-1978 Heavy Sixer in Richie's "for parts" pile. The woodgrain is painted black (actuall it is entirely painted black) so is it a Sears or Atari model? Those had the best RF output, then they cheaped out as the years went on.
Richie? Which is it?
liked Mr tuckey :)
Thanks!
No mention of the Stocker next to Frogger!
Maybe next time!! :-)
tweaker, you think?
just looked up the word now...he's always been moving around like that!! He's got so many irons in the fire!
Not that I should have to defend myself, but right after my divorce I was diagnosed with a few mental disorders. (not that I buy into that bullshit) I just successfully weened myself off of Adderall. I took my last pill about 6 months ago and I am just now starting to feel like myself again. Just Coffee and vegetable bile. (Fat Sick and Nearly Dead) the withdrawal was hell but now I am only on colonopin as needed. Thanks for your loving concern
You look to be making amazing and how you are with your kids is exemplary. I just finished watching this episode. Your passion and knowledge about these things shines through! Best regards from a small time collector in Sweden!
Hi Todd. Do you have any videos queued up for release while you're at Disney? I'm dreading the potential withdrawal symptoms.
I have done that in the past...we MAY do this this time too...I have another fun video coming out this week...but really didn;t think too much of when I am away!
BILLY THE CHEATER AT 20:55........ So is Richie gonna Pete Townsend that guitar ????
I think people are sitting back and waiting for the dust to clear!
"Donkey Dong 3!" (48:23) 😀
COuldn;t resist!
Why would Richie put a Street Fighter II World Warrior CPO on a SFIICE cabinet?
I do not know!
and that would be a very rare tape aside from bootlegs or live footages of concert with Dave singing there nothing ever been recorded well except no life till leather but don't think Dave on that one. but ya that's a rare cassette
I wonder if Richie knows that?
metal Massacre 1 that has metallica other singer must be Dave Mustaine of Megadeth when he was in metallica
I can sell them all day but i only sold one ......LOL
He's my Richie!!
hey todd, how much does a Ireland dig dug go for?
2K
In good condition?
thats what I sold mine for a couple weeks ago!
Would u have a buyer for one because I am going to restore one
And how much does a Ireland millipede go for?
I like Ritchie and would like to offer him one free tummy rub!
What about me??
lol Two free for you!....but Frank has to pay!
We once had a complete but non-working Monaco GP cocktail. Sold it to an italian collector years ago, who did an extensive restoration vernimark.freakandverynice.it/videogioco/monaco-gp/
That is just so neat!!!
Great Video, and to think Donald Trump won the election and he's restored the economy a year later. Too bad in "Caaaaaaanaaaaadaaaaa!" we have selfie rainbow sock surprise Justin Trudeau as Prime Minister. Maybe i'll challenge him to a game of Donkey Kong and if I win he has to step down. Hahaha! Love you guys.
Richie's too much like me at times rather organized and then not so much. right with that lil ol handheld WHITE football game that I never could play. I have the OLD Baseball one but it doesn't work. probably COLD solder joints. I have the new LCD one but doesn't work as well as the old one ever did. That one um needs a bit of an over haul and someone who knows what the f*** he's doing (or she) We have 3 working 8-track players however because I can't take either of the my parents ones apart I bought my own that I can so in case it starts to spool everywhere I can yank the power (that and well extracate the tape before it breaks. Very similar to Richie's needs speakers. the motor on my Sony Stereo does need a new one though. It doesn't spin the 60 discs anymore makes a god awful noises but never moves :( and this is a long video. You put me in there I doubt I'd ever get out. that and I'd be dusting everything. And Richie would never get anything done because we'd be chatting the whole time. He totally reminds me of my uncle. Who's really big into music. He used to record Real 2 Real (hmm wonder what that is) then 8-tracks he had an 8-track record once upon a time. naturally the music would run off the metal switch. oops. with music everything had to be pitch perfect... Used to have the whole house wired for music just from one room with wires thru the floor in the basement. 8-Tracks.. never a problem with them. Cassettes uh no. Tape is too thin. I know how to fix both though as long as the 8-track isn't that unspooled.. Rubber rollers suck. Plastic ones don't. and how many NES's does he have?? O_O I'm just trying to fix my old one up. just got a Famcom game to run on it. stuck it in the Pinball Cartridge.
8 track does sound good...I remember it well...
I hear this guy is so full of himself that he drives people away from helping sponsor his events..
Todd, I gotta stop binging on your videos... You're a bad influence.
You will soon be saying "Toddisms" all day long!
@TNT Amusements Inc I do like a creased poster as much as I like having a wedgie.
I️ love Donald Trump
I voted for him...and I believe almost everyone I knew did too.
