I actually played video games before i got into pinball
Space Invaders, Galaga and 1942 were the ones i most often played.
There was a Galaga at the bowling (or RSL, cant remember) club in Nambucca Heads about 20 yrs ago years ago where i used to do band gigs.. i would disappear during our breaks and play that, and put all my 20c coins into it!!
Its on my 'to do' list to one day get myself a video game, i fixed one recently for a client and had a lot of fun testing it before it was picked up
