    Default depression era shoot-a-loop game

    I was flipping through a LeeValley catalog and saw this game, simple but strangely familiar. It is called a shoot-a-loop it is from the depression era, it has pachinko like mechanism and play. it is a tin toy and very affordable. 12.95

    Where do the batteries go? I can't see the video screen or the slot for game cartridges. As a toy, this thing will never fly. What were they thinking of?

    How did we ever survive childhood without all the tech toys?

    Somehow I don't remember being bored while I had my imagination turned on. Batteries not required.
    If you haven't grown up by age 50 ... you don't have to!
