Darth Nuno also has one and I hope one day I will be able to play it with him.

But here's some nice pics of some Japanese fans getting it back to work....

The link is blocked at work so.....

I haven't seen a lot of mentions about the LD's rotting. Anyone here encounter this problem?

Yeah, well I played it one time in my life and I liked it. I bet when you learn the game a bit more it's actually a great game.

Did you also know there once were 28 player versions of it ?

Now THAT would rock :)

Regretfully they're all "gone".......

There used to be one of those Galaxian 3 at Funland In Blackpool years ago.  It was a two seater, and had three screens. Yeah it was cool, but not as cool as Steel Talons, which would take up the same amount of room.

Perhaps the MAMEdevs will add it to their list eventually.   ;D
If I had only one wish, it would be for three more wishes.
