picked up 2 games tonite, was there ever a dedicated burgertime mini?

I picked up a dedicated hypersports and a burgertime in a mini cabinet
with wood grain sides.
no pics yet, didn't get them both out of my truck yet.

Just curious if anyone has heard of a burgertime mini?

Also, I am supposed to go pick up the 3rd game a working centipede, just too lazy tonite.
 
yeah that's fine bud. The trackball needs a rebuild at first analysis.
It works, but it is a little off.

the cabinet is in nice shape.

I will pm you after I pick it up.
 
A guy in elk grove. He had them for his kids and they are off to
college now. All 3 are in pretty good shape. The hypersports has some
unreal records on it. Hypersports is a game I im agined I would make a run at
the world record after I run at tron, and this machine is going to be a challenge
just to get the high scores on it, lol. Oh, and the hypersports cab is the worst of the 3,
but I have a very nice hypersports cab, that was jammatized so I plan on pulling the guts
of the new one and transferring them into the old one.
 
Here are some pics of the centipede.
And 1 shot of the hypersports. This is the 2nd hypersports
I have picked up with the blue-ish coloring. It's not track and field blue,
but I don't know what it is. Did they launch hyper sports with a
blue cab as well as the black and yellow?

How many damn Hypersports do you have now? :)

yeah this is like my 5th hypersports cab.

I currently have 2, with one working board and the other being repaired as we speak.
Travis' has jow's old game.
 
I can go off memory and come pretty close.
swimming : 49 sec
skeet shoot 22,200
horse: 9.60
triple jump 18.7

the others I wasn't so impressed with so I can't remember them.

I have scored around 300,000 but I have never really taken it seriously to try to get real good yet.
When I finish restoring my machine and get some nice new leaf buttons in there, I will make a legitimate run
at the twin galaxies record.
I really need to go for the tron one first though.
 
Thks for the info. That skeet shoot is better than me. I've got the others covered. I guess I need some work on hitting that damn bird!
 
I can only get like 14,200 or whatever the hell it is.

I have never played on a machine that has good buttons. This machine actually has microswitches. It's pretty stupid

At CAX the machine was decent and I took down most of the scores there.

I definitely dig this game. Got a ways to go to be one of the best though.
 
My game also has microswitches. Do you believe that leaf switches make a huge difference? I haven't play Hyper Sports on leaf switches since 1985, so it might be a very worthwhile investment for me. Weight lifting is the real decider here -- what kind of speed do you get with your microswitches, and what do you see with leaf switches? I can hit 1560 - 1600 on a good day with my microswitches. Do you think I could go over 1600 with leaf?

I could be wrong, though I don't think so, this game and track adn field were designed to be played with leaf buttons. I think microswitches suck for these games.
Not sure if you would be faster with leaf, but you would be playing the game properly.
 
If the cab is blue it was likely a T&F conversion, no? Burgertime minis do exist, there was a thread on here not long ago and Tom B posted a pic of his. Looks like a WoW mini if I recall correctly.
