Favourite game?? there are so many but i'll list a few   Wasn't exactly a kid at the time, but i was about 19 or 20ish when i played Kiss for the first time at the Star Hotel in Macksville, which i used to enjoy playing during the breaks when i used to do band gigs there.

On weekends, anytime i had nothing better to do i'd do the rounds between Port Macquarie and Laurieton where there were plenty of pins to play! The old pinball parlor in Port had games like Dracula (Stern), Cosmic Princess, Hot Hand, Stingray, Galaxy and Ali, Buck Rogers, Roller Disco, Solar Ride, Countdown and 6 Million$ man, that i'd play on a regular basis. I bought Stingray from that place as my first pin in about 1988 and still have it  

Heading south, in Lake Cathie i'd stop in at a small takeaway shop near the lake, that over the years had games like Jungle Princess, Pioneer, Star trek (bally), Mata Hari, King pin and Gorgar. Gorgar was probably my favourite from that place and i particularly remember that Mata Hari as someone had removed the chimes and put electronic sounds into it (sounded like early Gtb system 1 'beep beep' sound board to me).

From there i'd go to North Haven where i'd play Jacks Open and Playboy (bally) at a takeaway shop there, and finally on to Laurieton to an amusement center there, where i found Haunted House which blew me away at the time with its 3 level pf!! The had a GREAT selection of pins on offer there; Kiss, Flash, Super spin, Buccaneer, Casino, Hankin ESB, Stellar Wars are just a few that come to mind that i really liked. They also had the first Zaccaria games that i'd ever seen, Robot and Magic Castle that i enjoyed playing.

Those places are all long gone now of course, but it used to be a fun way to spend the odd Saturday or Sunday afternoon
