Brought back a flood of memories.

Pinball was king for that time period. Partly because the video game technology was not there. Even games like Monaco GP, which was ahead of it's time could not compete with the pinballs of this era. They came in a sit down version which took up the place of a pinball. Bold move.

But as we start the 80's, this was about to change.
