Revision as of 18:47, 21 January 2006
I seem to recall a discussion from this forum where people were guessing which sounds were showing up on this main page. i guess i'm dating myself a bit here, but as someone who spent the majority of his life from ages 6-11 in front of an atari 2600, i believe i can venture an educated guess as to what most of them are =). Somebody jump in and correct me if you spot mistakes, or remember ones that I don't!
Toons - two-part noise, i think the first part is the shooting sound from ASTEROIDS. The sky changes to a different part of the day with each mouseover, looking much like Enduro.
Games - beap is from Seaquest, when you pick up a diver. Dunno the explosion sound, could be from Combat, when you hit or get hit by your opponent. The plane may be a reference to River Raid?
Characters - Strongbad mimics the bat from Adventure as he celebrates to the sound from Pitfall when you pick up a prize. He then disappears to the sound of Pac-Man eating a ghost!
Downloads - first part is Pac-Man eating a wafer. second is the car sound from Enduro. (no streetlamps in the game though =))
Store - no idea on the noise. Marzipan however is swinging that butterfly net very similar to how Mario swings the hammer in Donkey Kong.
Email - the sound is the dragon in Adventure biting you, or in this case Strongbad, as he attempts to bring the Enchanted Chalice to the Yellow Castle of Strongbadia! =D
