Bally/Midway/Williams (whatever you want to call them) actually made most of the cabs in the US for many years.  They finally phased out arcade games in the early 2000's, but Netherealm Studios, which was formely midway's game console division (and still is, it's just owned by WB now) still uses the building to this day.

Can you imagine what a **smurfy** job it would be to put monitors in all day.  They've got a good rhythm going there but man... your back would be jello by the end of the day.

Well they are in Chicago.... so OHS is probably ran by the mob and Midway would have given them a nice payoff.  ;)
