The original 1993 cabinet design

Chuck E. Cheese's Memory Match is a custom arcade game by Coastal Amusements made for Chuck E. Cheese's locations in 1993.

Title Screen

The game is a standard design arcade cabinet for the time, with artwork of the main Chuck E. cast all around the sides. The game is displayed on a CRT monitor, with a single speaker for mono audio output. The control panel consists of nine numbered buttons, which can light up during gameplay. The game required tokens to play, and would dispense tickets at the end of a session.

Gameplay

The game is a standard memory matching game. Instead of matching 2 hidden objects on the same board however, you only need to match one to the current character on-screen, giving the player double the chances of a correct choice. Nine buttons are available for the player, each to pick which character curtain to unveil. The game dispenses tickets based on how many matches can be made before the time runs out.

Voices

All characters are voiced in the game, commenting briefly on the player's actions. Chuck E. also reminds the player to take out their tickets at the end of the game. Scott Wilson, the voice of Chuck E. Cheese at the time, voices all male characters in the game, filling in Bob West's role for Jasper T. Jowls and Pasqually. Helen Henny is voiced by Karisa Mckinney, her current voice actor at the time.

Updated Cabinet Design

Updated Cabinet

Around 2000-2001, new cabinets produced would contain updated artwork to match the current branding at the time.

The marquee, monitor plexi, and control panel would update Chuck E.'s design to the current style, while leaving the rest of the characters the same. All logos and branding were also changed to match the current style. The control panel would see additional changes, scaling up the character artwork, and moving the copyrighted text towards the buttons, removing the "1992" artwork copyright date seen on the original cabinet. This updated cabinet would also see a Spanish variant, replacing the Memory Match logo on the control panel for a set of
