I still get a rush whenever I see this machine. I remember the first time I beat the Boba Fett level and the Vader level on the same play. When I find a machine that isn't modded (jammed joystick, unresponsive buttons) and with a good bright screen I can blast through all the way to the end on one play. I love the way the built in speakers rumble your seat. If there was ever any arcade game to have in my house....is there any other game where you get to fight wampas, duel with Boba and Vader by lightsaber, fight in both Death Star battles, fight on speeder bikes, fight the battle of Hoth and in Echo Base, play the battle of Endor, and virtually relive the OT?

 MAME?

 Is it playable yet? Not checked for a while.

I thought I had a version of it running once upon a time.  But maybe I'm dreaming.

I've tried several times to get it up and running on MAME, but I can never get that program to ever work. Supposedly SWT arcade still crashes.

...oh, wait, I get it.  The napkin under the fork, spoon, or knife would be the underware.  Never thought of it like that...

Exactly!

Think I've gotten to the menu once, but no further.

Well that sucks.  And here I thought I had it ready to go for the zombie apocalypse and everything.

But Die Hard ARCADE works, right?  Man, I've pumped so many quarters into that thing.

We also used to play this castle defense type game for Atari. Forget the name though.

Warlords?

Tried Star Wars Trilogy Arcade with the most recent version of MameUI, after the warning about the game not working I got a Sega logo then a black screen.

Last time I tried I got significantly more, however it's never been playable.
