Director of Marketing for Atari,

an automatic replay challenge. With
both standard upright and new
"mini'' CabaretTM cabinet models
available, together with all of the
operator-selectable options, this
game is an exciting new profit op-
portunity for any location."
Along with the release of the Bat-

Both of these items depict the
dynamic game play, and both are
excellent for promotional giveaways
and to enhance location play.
