One of the very few European developped arcade games: Looping
« on: September 27, 2012, 06:42:20 PM »
I knew this was initially released by a German company called Video Games GmbH. from Germany, but never knew it was actually an Italian guy (and team) who developped it:

The Looping ROMs have been released for private use under MAME by the original owner of Video Games GmbH.

Would love to see some pics of the original German cabinet on KLOV.......(or here).

Fantastic, thanks for sharing!  Oddly enough just the other day I saw pictures of a "Timothy T" pinball machine.

Aha ! That explains it ;) Are you aware of any other German Looping cabs or is this the only one we know about ?
