Atari WORLD CUP FOOTBALL Cocktail
« on: January 24, 2014, 07:01:28 AM »
This is not mine, and I do not know the seller, but it's up for sale on local platforms for quite some time now: an apparently working FOOTBALL WORLD CUP table by Atari. Not too bad at EUR 300.-, I'd say, but as I do have a PONG DOUBLES already, my desire for Pong derivates is over :).


It's about two hours from my place, so I can assist if someone here really wants it.

Pretty amazing that a US "foot"ball game made it over to Europe, although it's probably a lot more like another pong clone. Cool looking machine though !

Mmmmmmmm.....

It actually looks like this is a real football (intended to be) game. So European football I mean.

Interesting:

Now that machine is worth double ;)
