Nino, pictures speak for themselves, even if they don't do it justice as you say.

By the way, how rare a game is Aces High?  As this came in from a container (from Europe ?), I suspect you would find very few, if any here in Australia.  What a feeling that will be when this baby gets going .... it really is something when you're playing a game that is 46 years on!  Doubt XBox will be doing that in the 2050's.

Yes Steve, this machine is a game I hand picked in my first container. Like most Bally's of this era, it is rare. I don't know of any collectors that own one in Australia, so it is hard to guage how rare it is. Hard to find an opinion as a result. It is safe to say that like with all card / gambling games, it will be fun.

I rate Bally EMs higher than Gottliebs from this era. Artwork is MUCH better and they are more fun to play. I used to think Gottliebs made "the best" game, but now I'm convinced Bally built a better machine. My collection will be predominantly Bally EMs and maybe just one or two Gottliebs.
