Used to have one in Timezone Knox City (Melbourne), the car, which was red, was in terrible condition when I saw it about 10 years ago! I don't think Timezone has any games older than 2005 these days aside from Daytona and similar games, and Time Crisis 1 or 2 (which seems to be the only Namco franchise which stays out there aside from Point Blank, and they didn't even have that the last time I was there) and various non-video and redemption machines from the past 3 decades. Not even a Street Fighter II or a Neo-Geo cabinet, and certainly not any classic titles like Pac-Man. For the money, not the gamers (and their card play proves that with its inflated pricing, a $5 game card might give you $6, but what's the use when the cheapest game is $1.20 or even $2?).
