I have a chance to grab this but the title really doesn't interest me. It's in really good shape besides this one control panel. Is it worth even taking. I'll have a pinball in my truck and I really don't wanna haul anything else unless it's worth it.

I never heard of the game, but I remember the TV show with Nell Carter. :)



Oh, and there was an episode (1st season?) where the middle daughter was hanging out in an arcade, and about half the episode was set there :D
 
Looks like one of those Bally/Sente conversion jobbers. Probably a Rally X cabinet. Unless there is another horizontal Midway cocktail, Bosconian maybe, but probably Rally X.
 
If it is its a damn good conversion

Looks like a Midway cocktail but its hard to tell from the pic without being able to see the coin door. I know there were dedicated upright Bally/Sente cabinets but I do not know if there were any cocktails. Maybe there were.

I didnt even look at the coin door, im going there again and can check it out. Looks like ms pac cab to me with a horizontal mounted monitor. It works but no audio. They want 100$ if anyone in the charlotte, nc are wants it hit me up and ill tell you where its at, ill take more pic this weekend along with some other stuff they have and throw it on here
 
I believe they did make cocktails for some of the Sente games. I seem to remember seeing a pic that had a completely different coin door area than an older Midway cab.
 
It's a SENTE cocktail... not a conversion.
I was just playing on the same table but it had the mini-golf game in it.
GIMME A BREAK is the Sente pool game.

There's a picture of the cabinet on the KLOV page for the game:

You could swap the rom card and have the mini golf game in there in seconds.
1 cabinet with 2 kid-friendly games.
Not worth a lot but not common either.

If it were near me, I'd grab it.
Sente parts are practically given away so it would be easy to get it 100% again.
 
Sure looks like a Midway built cabinet though. The screen shots make it look like a pretty decent pool game. The only Sente Game I have played is Stocker. It was in a mangled Pac-man cabinet. Not a terribly great game.

No way, Stocker is awesome :) Midway made kits to convert Pac-Man style cabinets to the Sente system, so that's probably what was in it.
 
All of the world's problems can't be solved with multi-conversions.

If it is cheap, go for it. Looks like an ok billiards game.
