Chris, there are many Pinballs and another guy that I visitet also got at least 40 pins but I am not into them as it seems to be even more complicated to restore them than the arcade games.

At the guy with the 40 I saw pins with their coindoor said 50 Groschen, thats from our old money and is less than some cents, I guessed it from being at from the 60´s.

I wanted to help the guy to get rid of the pinballs but I found out that pinballs without DMD are not desireable for the pin-heads....

I can make some pictures of the Harlem Globetrotters for you of course.

When the time comes I got the have a conference with Nilfisk as he is Austrian too and I promised him to be the first guy to dig through the stuff.

Thanks for the offer but I'm not a pin-head thanks god :)
I was just trying to help you identify some machines.

Which picture are you referring to when you talk about the TRON shaped cab?
Anyway: Exciting find!!!

Just noticed that the one next to the Galaxia is a Gremlin Head-On

WOW Chris, you are the top scorer here, how many did you identify now, 3?

I fucking knew that the red marquee does not look like a non-dedicated cab, you slowly got an impression what we are dealing with in that barn.

Damn that's hard...

I know, is there any game that got a similar shape to Tron?

Zaccaria Dodgem:    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TQBi3DAyPRA


I added some more images of very mysterious machines:

Whats Apple Time, maybe a generic cabinet:

And here is the "BatMan":

http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag58/synonym999/Roadrtip%20outside%20my%20country/Batman_zps615c7d6f.jpg~



Also I would like to know more about the Super Sniper (is it rather a redemption machine than an video-game?) AND the cocktail that only features buttons but for 4 players:

....and of course that one:

http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag58/synonym999/Roadrtip%20outside%20my%20country/Wasistdenndas_zpsad097ef0.jpg~original

Apple Time was an Austrian manufacturer, in fact they are still around producing sports betting stuff:

http://www.apple-time.at/

It's most likely generic cabs, or cheap bootlegs (the first cab I ever bought, somewhen around 1999/2000, was made by Apple Time :D )

Regarding this: http://i1298.photobucket.com/albums/ag58/synonym999/Roadrtip%20outside%20my%20country/Wasistdenndas_zpsad097ef0.jpg~original : reminds me of japanese mahjongg cocktails, but as we're in Austria, I guess it's some kind of poker/gambling setup.

Ad Super Sniper: very likely an EM gun gallery, so a mechanical game (the term "redemption game" does not necessarily refer to a mechanical device, but rather to one where you play for tickets / prizes rather than scores. I've noticed you seem to use this term for electromechanical ("EM") games instead.)

Yes yes, I saw them and many other cabinets but we go into them when I pick the stuff up.

I want to keep away from the obvious games and rather identify the stuff I dont know, my report of the picking will be very precisly with tons of pictures in good quality. I even plan a 360° video where you can navigate in all directions while you watch the video.

I designed a helmet for such videos for a company that offers 360° videos-productions and I can borrow the equipment any time.
I guess a 360° would be very exiting.

Imagine, you can turn your view in what ever directions you want, here is an example:

http://www.360-degree-video.com/fullscreen-360video/praterturm/

It works impressive and you can watch just anything you want see, you can explore and dig through the stuff as you would be there with us.

The pinball with the stars is  a six million dollar man from Bally, not Harlem globetrotters.
I think the picture from Chris is showing a mixed up game.
Further i recognise a Williams Gorgar cabinet, as well as a Big guns head.
