Mini Klaxx. German built I guess.

Looks like ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- but probably a license.

Scramble......hey I've seen that side-art before ! It was on the Zaccaria Phoenix too :) :
http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php?topic=76571.msg815635#msg815635

This one is clearly missing the original bezel which makes the color-feast complete....

Oh, that's gotta be Ikari Warriors or something like it. Note the similarity in theme and art, and the rotary sticks.

Guerrilla War is the US name if I'm not mistaken.

Uh,.....I guess nobody understood, there should have been a picture of course.

Here we go:

I bet this is a Sprint 2 bootleg:


I don't know why, but I like it :)


By the way, is there still any interest here for this thread ? I'm thinking about moving it to KLOV forum as it seems more appropriate there.....

And since we're doing real oldies:

Tenniscoop 2

Yes, just another Pong clone but there are some special things about it.

First, it's a Bally, but built in Belgium ! (I know Bally did build Bingo's there but didn't know about videogames).

It has analogue joysticks so obviously you can move left and right too, which I'd consider a less desirable "option" on a Pong game.

The machine looks REALLY nice. Built in 1974 and has been in sellers hands for 20 years which probably explains it's nice condition.

The monitor has a Philips tube and still looks great (Dutch quality :D) Look at the weird place for the HV cup !
The chassis looks nice and basic too :D

I think most of you know that I love the German wall machines and so I'm very proud today to present you these great pictures of a fully working Meteor (bootleg Asteroids) machine by ADP/Gauselmann. It's running a bootleg game board. The Roms show "Astroimpact" instead of Asteroids as title but otherwise the ROMs are identical. The monitor is a G05-805. I think it looks absolutely stunning !

Look at the controls :D

Here's how a Frogger cab should look like, this _really_ puts the ugly Sega/Gremlin US cab to shame:

Licensed NSM release !

Love it. Do you know the size? Looks like a cabaret (but then size in photos can be deceiving)

No idea but I guess it's smaller than your regular (US) sized cab. Euro cabs tend to be a bit more compact. It's probably bigger than a cabaret though and I assume the monitor is 19".

Remember this one ?


Space Invader (yes without the s):





Another one (I think) surfaced !!! Better pics:

Pic 1: I like it ! It's only 150 cm's high acc. to the seller

Pic 2: Looks like the monitor needs some work, but there is some kind of mirror set-up like the original

Pic 3: Aha, so that is how Logitech started ;)

Some very nice Euro cabs found by ChrisChris:

Some Space Invaders bootlegs I've seen before, but that 1st Super Invaders (with cool Star Wars bootleg art) is new to me !

http://www.dragonslairfans.com/smfor/index.php?topic=2115.0

I esp. like the Galaxie 2 and Pull Down cabs:

Nice thread this is, and I would like to share some pictures of machines I have.

The first one is a generic cabinet that was very common in Sweden (and probably the rest of Scandinavia) since it was built in Denmark by a company called JK Automater. There were different models with different sized screens. This one is a "deluxe" model with bigger screen and stereo speakers.
The most common model had a single speaker and a smaller screen. However the smaller screen was very easy to rotate, so within a minute you can swap from VER to HOR position.

The second cabinet is generic NSM made in Germany. A bit smaller but larger than a cabaret model. I don't know if it is just this one, or if the Germans always made their own standard, rather than use a JAMMA harness internally. It took me a while to do an adapter... It is easy to rotate the screen in this one too.

And the third one, is a license built wall mount Break Out cabinet. I heard rumours about that there is also Canyon Bomber and other Atari models out there. Unfortunately my machine has a broken tube neck, so I have never played it. Trying to find a new (10") tube for replacement. The PCB is however original and looks to be in good condition.
This one is also designed for convenient screen rotation.

Building, collecting and playing arcade machines :)

This thread is awesome.  It is like looking at cabinets from some alternate reality.  Really cool stuff.   :cheers:

I especially enjoyed the Q*Bert road trip thread.  I'm anxious to get through his restoration thread as well.
