I LOVED Stargate when I was like 14 years old, it's the best arcade game ever created bar none; man what a game. What made it great was that if you were good you could play a long time on a quarter, and that was the whole idea. We didn't have much money then, so you always wanted to play the games you got the most out of your money. I recently found a cool Defender tabletop game with authentic controls but so far they haven't made a proper Stargate. But I'm on line and when/if they do I'll pounce on it. I once turned the game completely over back in the day, but only ever did it once, now I can't even get much over 40,000 on my Defender, but I'm old now so it hurts my back to lift all those humanoids. I know I know, lift with your knees, got it.

Definitely the GOAT of arcade games. One has to have honed their skills but the real trick or secret is to build up your arsenal in the beginning waves by rescuing and placing 4 or more humanoids into the Stargate. That not only warps one ahead in waves but also in points hence the build up in ships, smart bombs, and inviso. At the point, as mentioned in the video one can die several times but also keep On playing and advancing in points. Game play gets much more difficult tho having a reinforced arsenal really helps hones one skills and play longer... eventually it pays off and once comfortable and adept at maneuvers, it’s one of the most satisfying and exhilarating games to play.

I agree. Most difficult of all the classic games. Watching someone who is good at Defender / Stargate is like watching an alien life form. I can't even comprehend what's going on. Such amazing sounds. When I hear the background noise from an 80's arcade in my head, Defender / Stargate sounds are always in the forefront. While for gameplay I always preferred the more enclosed sides around the monitor like Stargate has, the Defender cabinet is iconic.

The legendary difficulty of Stargate has a bit of a legend behind it. As the story goes, Williams had a test machine out in the wild that they used to check whether the game was seeing sufficient turnover (these things are intended to make money for someone, after all), and they kept getting these ridiculously long play times, so they kept boosting the difficulty level until they eventually just gave up and released it anyway. Turns out their test arcade was also the home turf for the national Defender champion, which was kind of skewing their results.

Did this one come first? So technically Defender 2 would actually be Defender 3 then

+James007HungerZone It's the same game, they just called it "Stargate" in the arcade (and on the original Atari 2600) then called it "Defender II" on the home systems (and renamed the Atari cartridge!)

I have a question about the function of My williams joust game that I bought just to play the defender and Stargate that's included. in it. It's a 2 player console like yours but there is no smart button. It this something that can be fixed or added..or turned on?

It depends on what board is in it, how it was wired, etc. We made some multigames with those on it back in the day and basically the left and right does the reverse and the smartbomb / hyperspace were wired up to the start buttons. Sounds like you may have one that they didnt' hook all the buttons up on it.

@@LyonsArcade So maybe it's possible to hook it up? What's weird is that while playing defender there is no smart bomb button. But if you play Stargate the 1st smart bomb explodes the first time you touch the fire button. After that you can fire away all through your life until you die. On your send and 3rd life its the same. First time you touch the fire button to shoot the smart bomb goes off and then you can shoot. Smart bomb only works 1 per life upon first touch of the fire button. I know that's not correct. But is this a wire that needs to be moved from the fire button to the player 1 button or is it programming? Tbanks

Joe they pop up from time to time but I haven't seen one lately. They'd be about $1600 but we don't ship them, a shipping company could come pick it up and bring it to Canada but you're probably looking at $600 or so.

If anyone is interested, I have a pretty mint Stargate cabaret and I'm willing to get rid of it for the right price. Williams only made 4 game titles in cabaret form so it's rare.
