This was posted on CL and while I couldn't afford to pay the guy what he was asking (and it was definitely a good price), I provided a counter-offer that he declined on.

I liked it because it was 'different' than the other game types I have currently, plus I have no memory of ever having played it before.

I gave it a day or so and I asked again if he still had it and he said it's on its way to Washington State. :( I hate using this expression but "I guess it wasn't meant to be".
 
On the plus side, there is very little replay to the game and the cab is huge and heavy. It would have been different, but likely wouldn't have held your attention for very long.


I am currently working to try and get a large selection of EM games for the 2012 NW Pinball and Gameroom Show. Maybe you can pinch some pennies and come out next year...
 
If you really want the bad news, there was one listed on my local Craigslist last week for $100. It looked to be in nice shape, but I never replied or went to see it. I just checked and it's not listed anymore, so I'm wondering if the local arcade "refurbisher" who sells games for an outrageous price got it...

I believe it's similar to Midway's S.A.M.I. which is quite common (for an EM).
