fyrfyter Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Is this to upgrade the games or for something else? Electro-mechanical says older style pinball machines. I doubt this is anything to get excited about. I’m guessing they just have a warehouse area filled with older games that need to go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Ding Dong Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 It sucks when equipment reaches the end of its service life. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shaggy Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 If I could rewind time, I'd go back to the 1980's/early 1990's when Kings Island used to hold annual auctions. So much KI history was basically given away back then - the original signage, rides/parts, character props etc etc were literally sold for mere pennies on the dollar. At one particular auction, virtually every Smurf animated character was purchased for less than $1000 by an individual that displayed them in his yard at Christmas for years. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoastersRZ Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 And I wonder where some of that stuff that KI sold is at now. I know some of it has ended up at Jungle Jims. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
txdrummer Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Sounds like they might be clearing out the Arcade for future use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that Cedar Point owns these games is more of an oddity than you might think. Most places lease their games - including Kings Island. My guess is that they are transitioning into a relationship like that. You’ll likely see newer, more modern games in the arcade in the next year.

King Ding Dong Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Possibly part of a move to game cards next year like KI has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JubJester Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 Tony Clark just tweeted about the arcade games for sale: He replied to someone's response stating that it's just games that are out of order. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
