    Have a chance to buy this. Say's he has the 'wall style' new in a box. Couldn't really find too much about these. Does anyone here have knowledge of the play, rough value?
    Thanks

    Never have seen one of these before! He didn't give you and idea as to what he wants for it?

    Said, "Cheap". Which of course is relative, but it's for sale. I was confused by the title and description so I didn't say too much. I was finally able to read the flyer (need glasses I guess) and see that it should come with a separate coin mech, and the controller. Hope it's complete, and 'as advertised'. Sort of a 'skill stop' game it looks like. Wouldn't take up any floor space for someone, kinda neat.

    Agree, would be neat to have. Would be interested in what he means by cheap! So when you picking it up? ???

    The wall style one is definitely the coolest one, I wouldn't even touch the others.

    Probably similar to something like Midway Bull's Eye but for bowling?

    Edit: If I wasn't dumb I could just bring up a video of the actual game... Looks similar though!

    Would be neat addition to the gameroom especially since it's a wall unit and wont take up a deluge of space!

    I know a guy that has that Alley bowling game over in Muskegon. It's fun for what it is. Best part is the amount of floor space it doesn't take up. Although, technically, it does take up pin space as you won't want to put a game in front of it.

    Thanks for the video! I couldn't find that in my search.

    I'll be finding out how cheap is 'cheap', and seeing the condition soon. Thanks for the comments.

    I was one of the original engineers that built this game. First ever microprocessor game (4004) produced. Lots of stories. Gifted my own copy from the factory where it hung on my walls for nearly 40 years before I sold it off to a collector.
