Hi!!!

Thanks so far.

The game is world Rally, a 2D game sitdown machine.

I know nothing else:)

ROFLMAO....  :laugh2:   

No! The real one!    Cornwall.... that County south west of England. Where Harbour Amusements in St Ives, happen to be my employer, as senior maintenance engineer.

I will always know it as HillBilly Moonshine  :P

I am 29 now and have been going to St. Ives and Hayle every year of my life from my home in the midlands.  My parents have spent many hours sitting on the benches overlooking the harbour while I was in there playing Star Wars, Empire strikes back and Marble madness!  It is sad but I recognised the arcade just from the first picture  :-\

Corwall is where I got into arcade at places like Harbour Amusements, Poldark Mine where they still have a lot of old arcade machines, The World in Miniature or St. Agnes where i found a game called money money that I couldn't stop playing (the main reason why I found M.A.M.E) and The Bird in the Hand (Bird of Paradise Park) where they had Buggy Boy, Space Harrier and Pole Position sit downs in the old shed.

P.s Sorry for the thread hijack with my first post - I have been a lurker here for ages :)

Ahhh!! The Hillbilly is still at the front of the arcade and working as well as ever. I'm just doing some repairs to the amplifier boards for the sound effects. The background music has packed up yet again.

Unfortunately, all of which have long since departed the arcade. Star Wars sit down cabinet, I'm told still exists in a very poor condition, although I haven't had chance to examine it yet.  I'm going to try and persuade my boss to start a retro game section at some point!

Ahhh! all great places to visit.... I live in St Erth just down the road from Paradise Park.

Not a problem!!  Welcome to posting here... and when you're next in St Ives and in the Arcade ask for Julian at the cash desk. If I'm in I'll be happy to say hello.  I'm from the West Midlands as well originally
