Title Name[edit]

The title of this game is "Smash T.V.", not "Smash TV". Both the box art and the game's main title screen say so. It may seem like nitpicking, but I don't believe that punctuation in a title is unimportant. Every good fan knows that it's "Spider-Man", "Pac-Man", and "Q*bert", so this game title, likewise, should be described with proper punctuation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by MTPrower (talk • contribs) 03:41, 18 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Untrue[edit]

"Smash TV has also been made available for download through Microsoft's Xbox Live Arcade service on the Xbox and Xbox 360 and is the first version of the game to allow two players to play the game online."

With ZSNES and a Smash TV rom, two players were able to connect p2p and play online.

Technically, the text in the article is true, because it's the first version of the game to OFFICIALLY enable online play. ZSNES is an emulator, and thus ROM images for it are not an official means of distribution. The SNES version of the game did not have any online play capability - technically speaking, ZSNES itself has online play, but the game it's playing does not, itself. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 19:42, 21 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Also Untrue[edit]

Brian Schmidt did not write any of the SMASH TV music. Jon Hey wrote all the music. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Jonhey (talk • contribs) 16:49, 8 March 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Worth mentioning?[edit]

There's a very good map made for Starcraft based on Smash TV, and named thereafter. It was/is fairly popular aswell.

okay[edit]

So, what the heck is the game about, eh? --HanzoHattori 00:11, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'd buy that for a dollar![edit]

Avant garde band Mr Bungle sampled the "I'd buy that for a dollar!" quote in their song "The Girls of Porn."

Didn't that quote actually originally come from Robocop rather than SmashTV? dougmc 15:08, 19 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It is heard in both SmashTV and Robocop. I suspect that the people who made SmashTV probably watch the movie a few times during the production off-hours. For all I know, the game itself may have been inspired by it! Sweetfreek (talk) 10:20, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Pleasure dome NOT IN SMASH TV![edit]

The pleasure dome, referenced early in this article is located in a different game called "Total Carnage". It is made by the same creative team and writer/director as Smash TV.

If someone does not edit that promptly I'll do it myself. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Ecnal (talk • contribs) 12:07, 27 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

No more Xbox 360[edit]

Does anyone know why? I'd really like to play it on my Xbox 360. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.101.214.162 (talk) 21:52, 19 August 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Regarding the Smash T.V. Pleasure Dome[edit]

The Pleasure Dome is in Smash T.V. as far as playing it on Arcade Party Pak for the original PlayStation. (Unlimited continues are available.) The player needs to have collected the required amount of keys. (If it doesn't show a room title "You have enough keys", there is absolutely no access to the secret rooms.) The player also has to find the secret rooms by choosing the correct path (as shown on the map at the very start of the third sequence of arenas). For all that effort, it's just mini-sized bikini women to collect instead of the usual gift boxes seen in the bonus stages... so it's just extra scoring after defeating the final gameshow host boss and not required as part of finishing Smash T.V. (No bad ending taunt exists for not getting to the Pleasure Dome.) Future testing will show if Smash T.V. on Midway Arcade Treasures 1 for the PlayStation 2 also has the Pleasure Dome. (It probably does, since it otherwise plays as expected except for an accelerated choppy firing rate not true to the arcade version.) 76.122.221.218 (talk) 15:13, 8 January 2019 (UTC)[reply]
