Nice update!

The Atari Theatre flyer is a thing of beauty!

It's nice to have more evidence of the cocktail version of Scratch, and San Francisco seems to be a completely unknown unemulated game! (although with many Shoei games, suspected to be a bootleg of something)

I'm glad everyone is still enjoying the flyers. I wonder if Atari Theatre ever made it into production. It would be great if at least one still existed and was preserved in a museum setting! There are more game flyers by Shoei to come but this one was the most obscure.

At least a few were released but it didn't seem to catch on. I don't know why it wasn't more popular, arcade operators were always trying to cram as many games as they could into a small space.

Is that a cave on the 2nd picture? Look kind of like Jessie James Cave where he rob the arcade machines and place those there.

I can see why you'd say that but I think it's decorative sculpture/drapery things like they had in shopping malls in the 1970's catching the light.

On the other hand, that might be gregf's favorite "Crossfire" or something in the bottom left?
