Quoted from Winball_Pizard:

I finally got to play Popeye at a festival last weekend and now I don't have to play it again..... ever

Same here. I had to give it a try since the one I played looked completely restored with great led lighting. I felt bored with it in a matter of seconds. Granted, I didn't give it much chance but I didn't think the playfield was laid out well. If you can get one dirt cheap, it might be fun to have for a while.

I love the artwork and sounds of Fish Tails. It has the best topper and best video mode of that era. It's a tough game with the short flippers and tendency for the ball to drain fast, real fast. About all you do is hit the boat ramps and then shoot for the monster fish. Not a whole lot of depth but still a far better choice.
