We recently went on a day trip to the cec in Latham, NY which is just outside of Albany. Our goal was to fully document the studio c alpha interactive console. I thought you guys might be interested, so here you go! We split it up into 2 videos. The first focuses on the cameras and sounds. The second focuses on the activity center. Do we know how many locations still have this? The ones that I know of that do are: Latham NY, Wyomissing PA, Burlington NJ, and Berwyn PA |

It's so awesome to see that this location's console is in perfect condition. Wyomissing's console is almost entirely broken nowadays (It was in perfect order back in 2015), which is really a shame . It's awesome that you went through the videos on the movie studio section on the console. I haven't been able to see those videos in years. I remember seeing the "Larry the Stagehand", "The Announcer", and "Station Break" on my first ever visit to CEC back in 2007. What memories . I wonder, if anyone has the footage of the "Announcer" and "Station Break" intermissions? I found the Larry one on CECShow's channel, but I've never been able to find "Announcer" or "Station Break" (Also: For a while I assumed Station Break was really just the Director's Cut Intermission from 1998. Is this true?).

Greenwood used to have it. I think they removed the console and the Avenger cap around 2015 or 2016. |

I'm pretty sure Downingtown still has its console. I haven't been there since 2015, so I'm planning on heading back there sometime this year, and I'll confirm the current status of it once I return from there (I'm probably not going to go there until later in the year, though). |

Thanks, that would be great! No rush though, whenever you are able to get there is fine. |

Take Jackson TN off the list, it has a Cappa not an Alpha. |

Yes it was taken off the list as I said in my post above. I was actually the one who figured out it was a cappa not an alpha while I was checking over the list. |

Wow, I knew there was a lack of Consoles, but I didn't know there was only 28 ones left! That means there are more 3 Stages then there are Interactive Consoles! That means, the amount of consoles left is only only double the amount of Road Stages left!

They had when I went. I think they should have their Blue screenrremoved next to look more like Warwick's Alpha. |

I wonder how many of the consoles are actually all working? Some of them seem to have the computer monitor dead. |

My question is, how can one store have it, and one not? Does corporate tell the stores to remove them, but some stores don't listen? I've never understood this.

I think stores just decide to remove them on their own when the components stop working (remember that these things are all almost 20 years old by this point). |

Wyomissing removed its console? I went back in December, and they still had it. Where's the proof thatt it's gone? |

Yeah, those are covered up because the cameras were easily broken and hard to fix / replace. |
