I've seen several that were eaten up by termites.. does that count? :) Apparently termites love Joust cocktails for some reason, just sayin!

Great game, I hope to have one someday, just don't have the space at the moment.
 
I "had" two cocktail Jousts ... projects...

Bought the first one 6 years ago.
It sat in a barn (honest) for years before I bought it and was pretty rough.
It was only the bare box with nothing else.

I kept wanting to restore it, but had 3 kids instead... ;-)

Then two months ago, I found a much nicer one
which had been converted into a KLAX.

That, and few other big game purchases caused some "tension" with my wife,
so I agreed to sell off some games.

I had a fire sale to clear some space,
but ended-up keeping the better Joust for "future" restoration
(BTW, I've since been "fixed" so I'm not having any more kids ! )

Here are the sale postings I HAD for each game.

THEY ARE NO LONGER FOR SALE !!!!
(... and neither is the artwork or joysticks, so don't ask.. ! ;-)

(I'm only posting the links to show the condition of the cabs )

Hopefully I'll get it fully restored at some point and set it up next to :

I've got a project one that I have finally completed acquiring all the pieces. I cleared out my garage so I have some room to work on it.

It is in pretty good shape. According to legend, it was the one that originally belonged to Noice, then racerx (whom I got it from). It got converted to a Ghostbusters of all things, but I have the power supply, I have the boards, I have a new Vision Pro monitor mounted in it and I have the joysticks, the wiring and the art. The temperature is now cool enough to work in my garage, I just need some time...:(

Where'd you find the mini blue and yellow joystick shafts?

Here's mine. My first - and first free - game:
