The TROGDOR! Arcade Machine is an arcade machine used for playing TROGDOR!. It is in the Basement of the Brothers Strong. When you kick it, the game says "Trogdor!" in a computerized voice. The side of the machine has a depiction of Trogdor burninating a knight and a peasant. Strong Bad, Strong Mad, and The Cheat play this game in Arcade Game. They tell Homestar Runner that they're doing The Cheat's taxes, and Homestar points out that that's "one big adding machine". The arcade game serves as the menu for the bonus material on all strongbad_email.exe DVDs. Strong Bad will begin playing the game if you fail to make a selection quickly enough. On virtualpizz.biz, you can purchase a pixelated version of the machine for 50 Pizz Points. It is broken in all episodes of Strong Bad's Cool Game For Attractive People. In the final episode, 8-Bit is Enough, Strong Bad jumps and crashes into the machine and damages the 8-Bit Containment Field. At first Strong Sad thinks the fan's broken, but then the machine turns into Trogdor and "runnin' around all over the place beatin' people up and scaring everyone". Strong Bad fixes it by putting a logic board into the arcade cabinet. According to the Videlectrix Guys, you should not install that logic board around anything that's been exposed to radiation, as it could potentially cause the end of existence. When Strong Bad finally puts in the logic board, the arcade machine is back to normal, but Trogdor has escaped from his game, and so have many other Videlectrix characters. In extended play, the machine can be used to play Trogdor's 3D-Ungeon.
