1983 Electrotechnics Gun Slinger mechanical arcade gun game Gunslinger

1983 Electro Technics Gun Slinger arcade gun game. This video shows the ElectroTechnics Gunslinger in action. The game works on compressed air (pneumatics), and reports your score on the gun stands LED display. The score is calculated based on three shots and how fast you draw and shoot the gun slinger robot in the cabinet. This game was made in the UK about 1983. It is an update to the 1960s Taylor Gun Fighter gun game.

Makes me sad there are so little of these mechanical arcade pieces left. I can't imagine what we could create today with intergrated electronics and how cool some new ideas would be

[@brianorakpohit]

He calls you a smartass! Whata great game. Even though it uses real invention to make it happen, it oddly seems more 70s than 1983. Beautiful creativity by the makers. Quite intimidating!

[@redstonecommander5190]

I can’t believe that this arcade game actually utilizes an animatronic they can interact with using a gun

I remember playing the bad bart gunslinger game at Coney island and east 14 street in New York. In the mid 70's.

[@petmycat2720]

Played this at the Wisconsin Dells. His name back then was Black Bart.

[@ChazMcNick]

I believe this is the same game that was at Knotts Berry Farm for years. Played it so many times. Great vid. Cheers

[@pinballshawn]

That's an incredible piece. I only saw one of those when they were new.

[@DaveCorbey]

I remember this on Butlins Bognor Regis when I was a lad circa 1969. I seem to remember the eyes would light up.

Put his face back on. I'm scared!

[@chainsawteddybear]

KEEP IT OFF HAHA

[@ClassicTrialsChannel]

I remember this. There was an even older one I remember playing in the 70s

[@christophermarquez2310]

I came looking for the film version where the booth showed a clip and there was a twinkle in the bad guys eye. That was the cue to draw and shoot.

[@absoluteacw]

Amazing. One wouldn't forget that at a fairground.

[@ryanharung4173]

wow brings back memories from Chi Chi's the restaurant. They had one in the lobby! such a cool game. wish they weren't going extinct

[@rizzlerazzleuno4733]

Thanks Clay. Now you are ready for Cactus Canyon. I would guess that when the game was originally built it came with a small compressor, which probably burnt up in sort order. Hilarious that it was made in England, home of the Western gunfights on the Salisbury Plain.

[@wisteela]

I love how it's got a cassette loop tape

[@stuartdavidson162]

Used to walk past this a bit quickly when I saw it at the seaside in the UK - It used to scare me :D

[@davidsturrock6213]

Thanks for this I remember on holiday in filey Yorkshire 1983 I was about 6 and seen this game fascinated by it I was thanks 👍😎😎

[@StraX22]

Thanks for the videos! I remember playing one of these at Astroworld in Houston Texas in the early 90s.

[@jasonbrown4239]

Definitely make a copy of that tape to have a extra

[@dmtcb]

they had this at silver dollar city ..i think... I WAS SCARED of it...when i was young!!!

[@logalogalog]

Saw this at Tweetsie Railroad. They person who played ended up getting the *cheat* light on each time. The pistol was never placed inside the holster.

Save the children from nightmares and put back his face.

[@hotrodglock]

There was one at “the enchanted forest” amusement park in Salem, OR for years

[@JasonTylerRicci]

[@chickenvasquez78]

[@Tarkus-Ivalice-dweller]

[@awesomepetertv]

[@quasarulas3968]

The bad guy shoot the bad guy! 🌵🤠

[@timturner7609]

Lol this is pretty awesome. But I think "goddamn you weren't even close" is a bit over the top.

[@solonaravanroth1433]

i think they had this at disney land in the 1980s

[@illegitimatefilm]

I found this video searching for the one I saw at the Starcade at Tomorrow Land in 1993. It probably was this one, but I remember the character looking like a humanoid alien with green skin.

[@Wulfen73]

Either your lights are really loud or the speakers could use more shielding lol

[@Davidjon1946]

He looks like he wants to play a game with you I think his name was Johnny Rio

[@kimberlycolezemke2290]

Thank you so much for this video. It is amazing. Do you know if anyone has one of these for sale??

[@tonye4176]

[@Mr.Hatchet224]

[@pencilstreak9]

Westworld

[@ElBandidoLordPhobos]

Man that's creepy

[@elijahsmith5237]

How much did it sell for

[@hopetagulos]

Skynet in Far West..... :0 🤖

[@genericlyeric]

How does the cheat trigger?

[@logalogalog]

You are supposed to start with your pistol inside the holster. You are not supposed to point it until the robot says the word "draw." There is a magnet or some other type of sensor inside the pistol and holster that lets it know whether or not you have it inside.
I once saw somebody use this machine and he just kept it pointed directly at the torso of the robot. That caused the cheat light to light up.

[@Robert-ex6uc]

that uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu sound is terible

[@Underappreciatedclassics]

Mezel Golden it’s a high voltage hum

[@gurgy3]
