According to Håkan, the cabinets were made in the 80′s by an Italian company called Videognochi. I did some research trying to find information about the company “Videognochi” and the closest I got to it was “video giochi”, which apparently is Italian for video game. I know zero Italian, so I’m not sure if gnochi means something different, or perhaps was a typo and should have been giochi. I’ll keep doing some research, but until more information is uncovered, at least you can enjoy the flyer scans.


The cover image has a Blade Runner look and feel to me, beyond that, the flyer layout appears to have been done by an engineer that was better suited to mechanism design! Regardless of the scary layout, the cabinet is still a great piece. It even comes with ashtrays configured based on the button layout! The next chapter of this story will hopefully include some detail photos of how the mechanism works, which I am anxious to see. If you have any other information to share about this cabinet or its mate, the Magnum, add a comment please.
