No, I didn't misspell Missile Command

I am now the proud owner of two Missile commands. While they are not the same I think both are worthy of keeping and restoring.

European Version of missile command made SEGA. These cabs were design in a way that you can attach another piece to the front and have a environmental cab. No, I do not have the 2nd part but I have a lead of someone who does. I hope I can convince them to let me make a copy for my unit.

The one I bought came from a fellow KLOV. It took a few flight of stairs to pick it up. He lives in goat herding territory Laughs. Because of the smaller track ball, I think you can move the pointer faster but because the control panel is at a lower angel a Little chair might make this game more playable.

The Sega version looks cool.. Is the game play the same?

The game play is different and the board is different. The game play on the sega is faster playing and get hard quicker then the atari version. The track ball is smaller so you can zip faster around on the screen. The control panel is at an odd angle due to the cab design.
 
Doesn't matter which version it is a cool game. The Sega is pretty sweet though. :)
 
I have a control panel for that in decent condition if your interested.
Never seen that other version before, very cool.

Hmm, sounds like Super Missile Command which is much harder than the original.
 
Here's another version of Missile Command. Cab is a boot, and called Missile Storm:
