    Default Low-tech pinball at Wal-mart, thumbs up

    I went to check out the after Christmas sales at Wal-Mart yesterday and I picked up an item that might be of interest to those with game rooms. They had a golf-themed pinball game titled "Old Century Golf" on holiday clearance for ten bucks. I found it to be very well made for the price. Not a bad item at all if you see it.

    Old Century makes several very nice games. The company is quite a success story. Can't get through to their web site right now but I did some research a while ago when my son gave me their baseball game. It seems that 2 guys got tired of the quality of the toys they could find for their kids so the set out to make high quality wood toys that would last longer, It's grown into a rather large company with a variety of toys. This is the first time I've seen them at Walmart, though.

    I saw a toy Sonic the Hedgehog pinball at goodwill, plastic and about 2 feet long, $2.99, I passed on buying it.

    Nice pick-up Chris. Sports Authority is selling these on-line for $69.99.

    Old Century also has a baseball game:
