But if Danny DeVito's tv show Taxi character Louie DePalma says it....your initial assumption would be correct. I can envision a Louie DePalma character figure with that personality at an Atari marketing meeting trying to convince other Atari executives that a name "Touch Me" would be a great coinop game name.


See example excerpt clip below.

The segment at https://youtu.be/UjtbLFMUDAY?t=165 is strangely eerie in this day and time frame given the comedic reference, but yet still amusing....it was funnier back then before all this chaos took place....still great scripting writing style imo which made Taxi worth watching then and even to this day.
