An early example of arcade cabinets housing more than one game. A small switch on the control panel next to the 1p/2p credit buttons lets you switch between the games (2 in the cabinet; the games were Head On 2, Car Hunt, Deep Scan and Invinco. Head On 2 is the sequel to the original dot-eating game, Head On. This had added maze lanes and an opponent that creates added dots. Car Hunt adds changes to the maze (and an overpass) to Head On's maze. Deep Scan is a remake of Depthcharge (created by Gremlin in 1977), with color. Invinco is a Space Invaders clone with color and enemies that have peculiar personalities and quirks. Oh, and they RIP OFF the shooting and hitting an invader sounds from the original Space Invaders. I've not been able to add Car Hunt to this video because it's not yet emulated by MAME. Give these a try, you might like them. But I don't think they quite stand the test of time.
