TrekMD Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 You know, it is fascinating to see how corporations like McDonald's have also tried to be part of the video game world with different entries. I just watched this video by Classic Gamer74. The games are mostly about Ronald McDonald and the McDonaldland gang. Did you know that Ronald is called Donald in Japan? Apparently they don't have the R sound! Check it out... Smell Dawg, socrates63, Justin and 2 others 4 1 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming...

RickR Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 Oh what a fun topic! Who remembers those Burger King trio of games on the original XBOX? They got panned critically, but I always thought they were pretty fun for quick gaming. As far as McDonald's, this is going to sound nuts, but when we travel to Canada, it's always on my list to go to McD's. Why? Because they are much more adventurous in their menu up there. We've had McD pizza, Chicken Big Mac, Angus Quarter Pounder, Fish n chips, etc etc. It's wild! And the crazy thing is...it's good! Fun to try.

DegasElite Posted July 25 Report Share Posted July 25 They tried McDonald's Pizza here in America in the 1990s. Unfortunately, the pitch bombed. I remember a friend of mine trying it. That was the only time I saw it, around 1991-92. I have Sneak King for the XBOX. But, I can't play it because I don't have an XBOX. I just got it for collector's reasons. socrates63, Smell Dawg and RickR 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrekMD Posted July 25 Author Report Share Posted July 25 Yes, I found them on an article. There's even a fourth game that was only released in Spain, it seems. For the C64, Amstrad, and Spectrum: Whopper Chase. Came out in 1987. Here is the article: Burger King Games Jinroh, RickR and socrates63 3 Quote 🖖 Going to the final frontier, gaming...
