Pengo
Gameplay
Don’t ask me why but I have always loved a Pengo. I think there was a place that I would play it when I was a kid. Cool game. You run around a maze of ice blocks being chased by sno-bees and you have to crush them by pushing ice blocks into them. Line up the three diamond blocks for bonus points. Nice little intermission screens too.
Acquisition
I found a local guy (ductman5) with one. He said it was in pretty good shape. When I saw it I was very pleased and bought it from him. I’m glad I did. I got a good deal (I think) – $250. I have yet to see one at the arcade auctions.
Repairs
Not much to fix. It has a nice monitor, almost all of the sideart, the CP is in good shape, and so is the bezel and marquee. I just need to repaint the coin doors and it’s done. Oh – and make a back door for it.
09-23-09 – repainted coin doors and the bottom kick panel.
