Atari's memory drop target prototype. They were very inventive in those early days. As far as I know this is the only existing unit as it was never put into a game. The actuators were made by Dormeyer Industries. Micro switches were mounted to tell if the target was up or down and the Phase 3 CPU could fire the actuator to drop any target(s) it wanted.

Here's one from early 1989.

At the ACME show in Reno the Data East booth had their games on headphones. These were put together by Incredible Technologies. These "are the first known produced headphone systems".

There is a really nice unit out now that claims to be the first, nice try but they are wrong. Here is the first. Joe Kaminko gave me a several of these at the showDSCF1564.JPG. I only have two left.DSCF1560.JPGDSCF1561.JPGDSCF1562.JPGDSCF1563.JPG

Zaccaria Brothers already did it in 1982 with Pinball Champ '82.

But not in Stereo!

Might as well throw this up there as well. Black & white Monster Bash playfield.

Here's something I completely forgot about and it's hanging in front of me everyday. The Bally emblem from my old service truck from the late 80's. I took it off the passenger door when I got a new truck and framed it here in my game room. Glad I kept it.
