z3k3 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 (edited) Recently picked up a pong variant arcade curiosity: Allied Leisure HesitationThe thing has a unique cabinet design and numitron scoring. I wrote up an article about it with an embedded video demo. http://www.arcade72.com/allied-hesitation-1974/ Edited February 14, 2019 by z3k3 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Video Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Very cool. I don't collect, but do pick some up. Don't remember what I've got, but the one I keep access to, is actually a early 80's console called compuvision. I like it's simplicity and detachable controllers. Well, hardwired, but not part of the consoles dash like most models I've got. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatPix Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 I collect home system, although I got a Leisure board from the US; it's a 1973 model which probabyl correspond to their clone of the original Pong (board AL-5500 ). There are a few broken capacitors I need to fix and trying to power that thing too, since it use an odd supply (16V A/C on two lines... I mean I can find 15 V power supplies, but if 15V DC would work that would greatly help me) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nateo Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 Do I? Boy howdy, I have too many pong consoles, including: Odyssey 400 Sears Tele-Sports II APF Tv Fun Coleco Telstar Alpha Radio Shack TV Scoreboard Atari Video Pinball I also have a AY-3-8500 pong chip that I intend to use in an electronics project. I love the mid-century modern asthetic of those machines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z3k3 Posted February 14, 2019 Author Share Posted February 14, 2019 Agree, they have a great aesthetic. I also have an Odyssey 400 and another in that series. Video Pinball is one of the great bronze age arcade games. Wouldn't mind picking up a console. Do I?
