My all time favorite was Fireball. After a few years, they (Bally?) came out with a Fireball II, which was an electronic version, but they got rid of all the best features (like the spinning disk in the middle of the playfield). About two weeks ago, I discovered an arcade which had a 'Fireball Classic'. Aparently the original Fireball has been re-released in an electronic version but with a playfield identical to the original. I've had a few games at home now and then. My current machine is a Gottleib Royal Flush, which is a pretty good game. (It's for sale, by the way. Anyone interested?) The new Williams Space Shuttle is a good game, as was Firepower, but Williams has had problems with reliability on their new games. Most of the Space Shuttle and Firepower games I've seen are down as often as their up. -- Of course we have backup tapes. Do you want last year or the year before?
