If anyone on mainland Europe is interested, I probably meet the seller this weekend (depending on this f*** winter weather) and I could pick up and bring the game over to Holland  (Rotterdam) for a small fee where it will have to be collected in a week or two.

No, just enjoying the country side. The southern part of England is beautiful you know.  :) And they have great big pints of ale.

I played Space Invaders on a Cocktail this weekend, very nice!
The price of this astroids is a little bit to high, unfortunate.

I actually think Asteroids is one of the few games that work well on a cocktail. IMHO anything that needs a 4-way joystick will suck on cocktail. I played Speleo's Asteroids cocktail when we visited him and I was hooked ! (Have to admit it was the first time in about 25 years that I actually played it on the original hardware and vector monitor.)

Cocktails are nice if you have a special place for them, or LOTS of space in your gameroom. I guess the only cocktail I would want to have right now is Joust.
