I recall there was a photo of a US Billiards Shark upright cab at one of the recent CA Extreme shows. I have never seen or played that game in person, but did play a couple times (back in 1970s) of Atari's Shark Jaws.
iirc Shark Jaws may have been in same Time Out arcade establishment (at Westminster Mall in 1970s) that had some of the EM hardware games such as Chicago Coins' Flying Tiger still operating alongside some of the video games in mid 1970s. I wouldn't be surprised if quickly getting tired of playing Shark Jaws and went back to playing Flying Tiger since I was a huge fan of that EM game back in the days.
