Notes about this table:
This is an EM table made by Sega in Japan in 1973.
It is a 1 player only and it has a few objects that are different than other tables, like the bumpers and the slingshots.
It has also a "space walk" where the ball is moved from one kicker to the other by a magnet.
And it also has a right gate to save the ball.

Muy muy bien! Thanks JP. Again some fine history preserved. This table is fun! Gracias.

Wow! The 1970s Sega pins are nearly impossible to find anymore in Japan or anywhere else. Thanks a ton, JP, Leonard, and STAT! This is a very exciting release!

Wow JP, thankyou, had to try this one as it is the same age as me.... just had a few games and it blew my mind when I saw the ball being walked over from one side of the table to the other with the magnet feature. I had no idea magnets were used as early as 1973, not only to capture but to actually physically move the ball. You also nailed the jerky movement evident in the original machine.

 

Those pop bumpers and slingshots are also very unusual.

I did notice one tiny pixel peeping issue when I was playing in desktop mode, initially I thought I had some dead screen pixels but I think there are a couple of stray pixels over the top of the ball when it is sitting in the plunger chute (slightly more noticeable with AA disabled). Probably some non transparent pixels on the plastics texture in that area?

Well done on preserving yet another piece of history.

Beautiful table thank you JP ,leonard, and STAT for your hard work!

Thank You JP! looks great! many thanks upon you!

Thanks JP, so happy to have this rare table in the collection. The ball movement with magnet across the table was a unexpected and pleasant surprise! Great job

Thanks JP... as usual an excellent table.  As everyone has said I think the magnet you captured is amazing.  But I think the game plays a bit fast for the era.... just saying but I've neveer actually played it as a kid.
