Ep. 113: Bally Professional Arcade
Author and historian Kevin Bunch returns to the familiar guest chair to educate us all on a somewhat obscure 1970\u2019s consolputer from his recent video, The History of the Bally (and Astrocade) Professional Arcade: Archive Annex Episode 4. In this episode, tears are shed, wrapping these things in useless metal, accidental historical revisionism, what\u2019s in a name?, the toy industry was too small for undercutting, Dog Patch: shotgun volleyball, ironic corporate rewards for good behavior, and making friends over this hardware.
