exploring the arcade in なんたって18 歳 #7私が2人いる (I'm 18, after all #7 There are two of me) aired 1971

The video clip from this episode can be downloaded in the Videos part 15 post.  It has a full scene at this arcade with a number of choice games.  It begins by flashing a few backglass images...


1970 4 Aces by Williams




1966 Western Tag Game - タグゲーム by 関西精機 (Kansai Seiki)





1969 Indy 500 [W-type] - インディ500 [W型] by 関西精機 (Kansai Seiki)




You can see a punching bag hanging down, but we'll get to that later.  We begin with Indy 500 on the left, then the 4 Aces pinball we saw above, and then...

1968 Caliber-50 - キャリバー50 by 三共 (Sankyo)

1969 Gun Fight - ガンファイト by セガ (Sega)


The panning camera reveals 4 more games


between Gun Fight and Combat is a pinball machine corner.  There are actually 2 pins there.


1968 World Cup by Bally

Combat - コンバット by セガ (Sega)



~1969 Animal-7 - アニマル 7 by 三共 (Sankyo)




Rifleman appears at the right of the frame

1967 Rifleman - ライフルマン by セガ (Sega)




quick cut to Indy 500 and we now see the punching bag machine

This appears to be a variant of Sankyo's Boxing.

~1969 ボクシング (boxing) by 三共 (Sankyo)

And that one is a variant of the classic look, with the display lights arcing upwards instead of downwards.

zoom in on Combat, but we also get slivers of clues of the games on the left

back to this view, we can now see the front of 2 different pinball machines

We know from the very first shot that 4 Aces is here, and that lines up with the first pin in the row.

The 2nd machine is one of the two gold-cabinet Williams machines, but since we do not see the tip of a bowling pin beneath the flipper button, that means it must be...

1970 Gay 90s by Williams

 
extra Rifleman shot!

This blog stands in protest against the USA's horrific attempts to eliminate trans people from society. Trans people have always existed, in every society, but the administration has embraced a moral panic, declared a war against reality, and says that trans people can no longer be allowed to exist. This includes making their healthcare illegal, censoring books and school curriculum from university level down to elementary school, declaring trans life to be child abuse, and banning trans people from bathrooms.

This blog stands in solidarity with all of the youth who are being terrorized by a fascist president who has declared them to be threats that must be eliminated.

The USA is disappearing random brown people off the streets via unidentified masked men and shipping them off to concentration camps and notorious foreign prisons, all with no due process. Solidarity for all who are in the gaze of this American Nazism terror campaign against its own people.
