Look what I found in Italy ... HangOn!

Apologies for terrible quality, I have no flash on my camera phone.

The background was messed up, but the music was exactly the same, and the game played exactly as it does on the Dreamcast (not the XBox version, it should be noted!)

Also, my Italian nephew obtained an electronic game hall Darts game, something I'd never seen in real life before! Here's his father (my brother-in-law) standing in front of it. Unfortunately we couldn't get it to work properly, and I never found out how the darts got back into the machine.

Hey, this is my 4000th post!!! Uhm... again?

Nicccce. I also found a Neon Darts game while I was abroad in Europe (can't remember which country I was in..) but couldn't get it to work either! I guess it relies on super-honest law abiding Japanese people who will put the darts back into the machine after a game and then put in another coin to get them back out again!

Maybe that's why the ones found in Europe don't work. Or maybe I just don't know how to operate them!

I'm getting Déjà vu from this, did't another member find Shenmue arcade machines in real life and post pictures?.

Either way, cool find man :D. Thanks for sharing the pics.

I hope the Dart game was free, after all it doesn't work. Cool Hang On find. It would be cool to play on a real Space Harrier machine i think.

Very Nice, That Darts machine looks awesome!

I didn't realise they actually had machines like that, and it looks almost 100% like the Shenmue Ones.
