Shack's Arcade Corner - Sunset Riders
Ride out into the Old West with Greg Burke for this week's Shack's Arcade Corner, as he takes a look at the Konami coin-op classic, Sunset Riders.
The age of the arcade beat-em-up included superheroes, walking turtles, and even cartoon sitcom families. But what about the cowboy? Where's the cowboy representation in this genre? Konami, makers of such arcade classics as the aforementioned Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles arcade game, had those needs covered with Sunset Riders.
Join Greg Burke as he discusses the many fine elements of Sunset Riders, from its unique take on the 2D beat-em-up to its distinct Old West setting. Watch as he discusses both models of the Sunset Riders cabinet, followed shortly by its brief history on consoles.

I agree with everything Cow said. In addition, I feel the video had better pacing then past efforts because you didn't try to shoehorn in jokes and memes in as you have in previous vids (For instance, the entire Super Scope 6 commercial in the Terminator 2 video, the Pryde of the X-Men intro in X-Men, or a kid freaking out during the Mortal Kombat video). This one felt better and more informative with the use of time.
About the only criticism I'd have of this one would be that you noted some characters use 6-shoters and others rifles, but didn't elaborate on what the difference is, or show footage to illustrate.
