Rollergames Prototype Drop Targets

[John Wart, jr]

I finally found the 5 drop target assy for the proto Rollergames pins,
actually 2 of them. Pics forthcoming as soon as I recieve the pieces.

Whether or not I can make one work in my game, it'll be a neat piece of
memorabilia for my gameroom

I was surprised to see the target decals, never seen ones like these before.
Not unusual in materials etc, just different as I'd wondered what the
artwork was.

I'm a long ways from trying to make them work, but it's started to answer a
question I've had for over 2 years - what the assemblies looked like. Now
I've just got to figure out how to make them work.

No one believes me that of the two Rollergames we had on campus back at
college one had the skate drop targets and it worked. The main issue
would be if the software still supports the targets "up" coil. Good
Luck with the project!

I believe you, wolffy.. but I've not heard about it til now, glad to know
someone has seen this work!

Korn sent me an e-mail detailing the fact that there's 1 solenoid driver in
the game that's unused, so I'm *hoping*...

That's cool. If you have the coil (or any 50V coil) around I would suggest
hooking that coil up to see if the game does still trigger it. If it goes then
you know you are clear to go ahead with your mod (or retro... whatever :) )
If not then you might want to hunt down the protosoftware before changing the
playfield.

If Korn has an extra coil around the same test could be run... hint, hint :)

I have other crap that needs doin' first. Besides, that'd take all (or some) of the fun out of it for John! :)
