Virgil Tracy Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Just curious if many people here own older electromechanical games, if so what are they and how do they work. These are also on my wish list Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Virgil Tracy Posted February 25, 2006 Author Share Posted February 25, 2006 I dont care just call this EM chat section, pinballs and all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viper Posted February 25, 2006 Share Posted February 25, 2006 Yeah, who cares. Nice to see EM's of any description. I'll have me one of those old pinnies one day I swear! I'll never forget when the local Hogs Breath opened and they had an EM pinny. Was supposed to be for show apparently but there was no sign and it was plugged in, how was I to know? I pumped all the 20c pieces I could find into it and had a blast. Next time we went in I was armed with more 20's but now there's a sign on it and the coin mech is taped over. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Wotto Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 Okay my first google searches have failed to provide any inforomation. Any other suggestions where to look? I know nothing about them at all- but I did a bit of a "duck hunt " of my own on the web for you - not much outh thereon this stuff. Try here- http://marvin3m.com/arcade/ - at the very least you could contact the guy and get info from him? He may know where to get manuals or know of Aussie collectors?

jeff Posted March 1, 2006 Share Posted March 1, 2006 just a bit of advice Virgil Tracy some of these KASCO games have holograms style graphics that appear intermitently as part of gameplay. if you intend pulling mechanisms out to clean be very careful. there may be one or more revolving targets, havent seen one for a while but the main part of target looks like part of a revolving white lampshade on that lampshade part there may be something which looks like a photograph negative, dont try to clean it or wipe it with a rag or anything as its extremely fragile and is the actual hologram. dont know anywhere to buy them as i need some myself, and they may have been wiped already ( if game has them ) most of the KASCOs ive seen have been cleaned internally at some point and holos removed :cry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
