Insert Coin, the documentary on Midway Games and its remarkable development of arcade titles, has finally received a release date. For fans of arcade gaming, video game history, or Midway itself can look forward to viewing the movie in just a few days, on November 25.

Insert Coin is a documentary on a game studio that dominated arcade gaming for a time, Midway. The documentary shows the history of the games and the studio through “intimate and often hilarious” interviews from people who lived it out. The film shows what really happened behind-the-scenes of Midway to create some of the best arcade games ever, such as classics like Cruis’n USA and Ms. Pac-Man, while also showing how the studio handled major controversy.

Part of the success of Midway was thanks to live-action gaming found in its huge hits like NBA Jam and Mortal Kombat, games that helped Midway become a household name. The documentary uses interviews of developers, in-game talent like the voice of NBA Jam, and more. Right now, the movie is sitting at 100% on Rotten Tomatoes. Of course, it would be remarkable if it stayed that high, but the Insert Coin has the potential to be one of gaming’s best documentaries.

If Console Wars, the movie about Nintendo and Sega’s fight in the 90s, is the go-to documentary on video game consoles from that generation, Insert Coin has the opportunity to be the arcade equivalent. There are countless arcade games that fans remember fondly, such as Mortal Kombat, Killer Instinct, Space Invaders, Ms. Pac-Man, Spy Hunter, Galaga, NBA Jam, Narc, Rampage, SmashTV, The Grid, and countless other classics. Learning how these games came to be, the history behind Midway, and all that comes with it is something that gamers may find very intriguing.
