Great game. Love the Bandai dual panels.
For Zaxxon it works great to have the action on 2 layers.
The FL Zaxxon is also very cool. They used a mirror to put two halves of an extra long VFD panel to look double layer.

Do you also have Airport Panic? That game has 2 panels stacked, but with different levels.

Guess we have to contact who brings what to Eurocade :D. I visited gyruss 2 weeks ago and he told me you come with many LCD games.

This is my first and only 2 layer handheld, never knew that they exist until now. :D
We can arrange "who brings what" of course. ;)

Great catch!  :-*
I used to play that one in the school playground, but it wasn't my game! I was jealous, Zaxxon was a such great game for me!
I'm still looking for that one, and have my revenge!

I can take the VFD brother. It is one of the games I have a play duplicate for.
I can try to bring some arcade classics in VFD form:
Q*bert
Zaxxon
Amidar
Puck Monster
Crazy Kong
Frogger
The Pit (dig dug clone)
Galaxy II (invaders)
Astro Thunder 7 (Star Wars)
Frisky Tom
All these games I have a rough play version for, next to a mint boxed one.
Have to find 10 adapters though :)

I should arrange a nice round table, about 1m high to put them in a circle.
