BurgerTime Arcade Game

Here’s a BurgerTime Arcade game for sale. You play chef Peter Pepper who is trying to assemble four massive hamburgers. Released by Data East in 1982, BurgerTime was very successful both as an arcade game and as a port for other consoles. The object of the game is for Peter Pepper to assemble the hamburgers while avoiding the evil Mr. Hotdog, Mr. Egg, and Mr. Pickle. Avoid your enemies by stunning them with pepper shots, crushing them with burger parts, or getting them to fall with dropped burger parts. Additional pepper shots can be won by collecting bonus ice cream, french fries, or coffee. The classic BurgerTime cabinet has a chef’s hat cut into the top, which is very hard to find original. We can still make you a special BurgerTime conversion using a Pacman style cabinet and adding BurgerTime artwork on the marquee and control panel! 

The following is from the Arcade Museum

As Peter Pepper, you run around dropping parts of hamburgers down to the trays at the bottom of the screen. The game’s hardware consists of a tape and a custom module for use in Data East’s cassette conversion systems. The title was licensed to Midway later on as a dedicated board set.
