Can anyone ID this classic cabinet!?
« on: February 07, 2006, 02:38:05 pm »
Hello - I picked up this converted cabinet used, so if it somehow was a classic, please don't send the hounds out to track me down.

I am curious if anyone can identify what game this might have been.  It has an Atari sticker on the top of it, and the graphic on front says copyright 1980, Midway Mfg. Co.

Side profile looks a lot like Tron.  Maybe Gorf?  Nice cab, though!!!!

The front artwork is Gorf.  The cabinet looks to be the right size and shape as well.

There are no mirrors.  I guess the camera flash does wonderful things.
