This reminds me of the arcade documentary called "The King of Kong" if anyone knows it?
The champion needs to defend his title but has no video proof, and sent in a tape he edited together because he's too cool to attend the live playoff, while the up'n'coming challenger happily played 'live' in front of everyone to smash the champions record........funny doco, well worth a look into the weirdo side of arcading hehehehehe
