Visited game museum

Today I visited JGM(Japan Game Museum "one more time").
After you pay entry fee, you can play with them.

My main purpose was to play pinball"getaway"
As a pinball fan in the past, this game is very special for me.

There are less and less pinballs these days.

The next one I wanted to play was SEGA gran prix(1969).
This was the first driving game I played in my childfood
in a bowling alley, and I couldn't remember its name.
I found this video on the net and knew about this museum.
It was unlucky this game wasn't playable today.

Nice. Clive Sinclair and co were at the Cambridge Museum the other day too. Retrotastic all round.

That's really cool, many of the games machines from my childhood. I know me and a couple of my friends would definitely spend a few hours in there, one is a big fan of Out Run. A cheap price to pay as well!

Excellent pictures.

The game with the little mechanical bowler intrigues me... I've never seen that before.

Yesterday I was somewhere (a flea market) with a working Virtual ON machine. I should have had a game on it!

One day I'd love to track down one of the machines for Star Wars: Podracer. Was actually a really good racing game, I had the PC version of it. The machine had Podracer controls though. You have two handles that you push forward for power, then pull back one to turn in that direction. Kind of like handlebars with no bar in the middle. The arcade one was so difficult to control, but so much fun.
I should probably point out that I was nine years old when the game was released.
