Please Insert Coin(s) To Continue: Seventy Oldschool Video Game Deaths In 2:30
This is a video made by BoingBoing featuring seventy oldschool video game deaths in less than three minutes (all set to an 8-bit version of Mad World).

Hit the jump, then tell me the name of that game so I can download an emulator and get my groove back game on.
