I'm pretty sure Magnum was the video gamer...maybe Higgins had an Intellivision or something.

Correct. Magnum was the video gamer
The computer RPG game that Magnum plays on Robin's $100,000 "Dracos III" computer security system is referred to in the episode as The Dungeon Master. Contrary to popular opinion, and despite its similarities, this game is NOT the classic computer game Dungeon Master. Dungeon Master wasn't released until 1987, a full three years after this episode was filmed. In fact, the game seen in the episode is not a real game at all! It is a mock animation sequence, complete with unique artwork, audio and text, made to look like a real game. The 3-D graphics are way too advanced for anything seen in a circa 1984 computer game. The game audio is not from a real game either, hightlighted by the fact that the game calls out Magnum's name! The sequence seen is basically a spruced-up, colorized, interpretation of the classic 1981 computer game 3D Monster Maze.
For me, it woul dbe Joe Friday. He would be the only one to take it seriously and probably wouldn't laugh. He would just take the facts and is the only one that could say this with a straight face,
"Put out an APB on a man wearing a chicken hat"
