Two new carousels
U
K Kiddie Ride specialists Jolly Roger have added two exciting new
carousels to their range: the Plane Carousel and the Horse Carousel.
These exciting new three seat carousels offer great value for parents in the
current tough economic climate. With a 50p or £1 vend price the cost per child
is significantly less than a standard ride. This value for money creates strong
demand and exceptionally good revenues.
With a small 1.6m foot-print they can be sited in most locations, and their
vibrant, bright colours make them a great centre-piece.
Built to Jolly Roger’s renowned quality
and safety standards, these are a “must
have” for the discerning ride operator.
Powering ahead
N
amco Europe/Brent Sales has launched what videogame aficionados are
describing as 'the innovation of the year' with the release of Raw Thrills' hi-
tech powerboat racing game H2Overdrive.
Unveiled to a global audience in prototype format at January's ATEI, the
production model has been vastly up rated with the integration of a 42-inch high
resolution LCD flatscreen panel, giving a further boost to the game's stunning
next-generation graphics. Early site testing revealed H2Overdrive as the top
performing videogame at three separate locations.
H2Overdrive benefits from advanced videogame technology and a host of
mechatronic, acoustic and electronic special effects such as force-feedback
steering, resistive throttle and a powerful seat subwoofer - all designed to deliver
the most immersive gameplaying experience.
Players select from nine high powered speedboats to navigate their way
through seven water courses including canyon rapids, jungle swamps and flooded
city streets, with stretches posing a raft of obstacles, jumps and secret pathways
to explore, whilst boosters and super boosters may be picked up along the way
to enhance a boat's performance.
H2Overdrive is linkable up to eight cabinets, offering competitors a chance to
race head-to-head, while Raw Thrills' PIN entry system also allows players to
store their profile and accomplishments, promoting repeat play and the
opportunity for challengers to battle the elements and course leaders.
