Cool! You don't often see the (in)famous Warp Warp that often. Yours looks to be in great shape, too. Good job on fixin' the machine up!
 
I used to have one of those back in 05. Traded it for something else forgot what it was though. I have seen allot of them converted to Arkanoid.
 
"Warp-Warp" Sounds cool when I run it through my Computer's speech feature. :001_shappy:

Rock-ola on!
 
I know that the game play of some of the Rock-ola games is pretty weak - so are a lot of games from the video game era. I dont really care about that - I have a few Rock-ola games now and was excited to add another one to my collection!
 
Looks to be in nice shape! Warp Warp is quite possibly the best video game name ever. I can just picture the guys in the office trying to name this game... let's call it Warp Warp!!
 
Great pickup. That one looks like it is great shape. Next time I think of it, I'll have to ask my friend John who worked on Warp Warp.

I've never seen one working so I can't comment on the gameplay, but I have tried to buy one a couple of times when they come up on CL, just for the name.

Yep, then I'd attempt to conquer Tim McVey's billion point score! (yeah right). :D

I had his spare board for a short time and had it hooked up to one of my cabs and got to play it a bit at home, but I've since sent it back to him. Oh, and while there's no way I'd ever even get close to Tim, I did beat his first round score. Best he's done is 910 points (without dying, since dying resets the bonus timer). I've got a pattern that gives me 930 :D
 
Interesting. I picked up a Q*bert conversion in a Rockola cabinet, for a friend that had that same monitor bezel. Guess we know what the original game was now...
