Conveyorvelt shooter game ?

24 June 2006 - 04:01 PM

Hi guys ,

Does anyone remember a gambling game see in the arcades many many years ago , which was housed in a large cabinet with a wide sloped glass top. Inside was a conveyorbet with a flat white sheet of material. This was divided into lanes , each with numbers in them 3`s and 6`s (I think). The idea was to shoot a 2 pence piece from one of several slot points onto the belt as it was moving , and if your coin ended up resting in one of the lanes without it touching the black lines , then , both your original coin and your winnings would come rolling down the top of the glass cabinet towards you. You had to be quick to catch it before it fell on the floor. People used to put bits of silver and all kinds of things into the firing slots rather than coins.
