VectorGamer Posted December 29, 2014 Share Posted December 29, 2014 We visited the Old Sled Works this weekend which is an antique mall in Duncannon, PA about 20 minutes north of Harrisburg. At the far end of the building is a penny arcade filled with mechanical pinball and arcade games. I remember back in the 70s the mall and boardwalk arcades had plenty of mechanical arcade games on the floor as there were not yet a whole lot of videos until the early 80s. Here's a video I made that consists of a walkthrough and we play a few games including Pong. http://youtu.be/CpIJZ7LhGOw 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately most of those mechanical games were before my time and I never had a chance to play them back in the day. They had disappeared pretty quickly once the video games took over in the late 70s/early 80s. I hope they don't get completely lost to history, but how would you emulate them?
