Musee Mecanique: The Real Retro

When you hear the phrase ‘retro games’ what comes to mind? Sega consoles? Snes? Amiga, or Commodore? Those aren’t retro enough. Musee Mecanique is a privately owned collection of antique arcade machines and mechanically operated musical intstruments. Here are a few images from the collection found on Games Radar:
Seeburg Ray-O-Lite (1936)

Looks better than Duck Hunt right?
Genco Two-player Basketball (1954)

I think I like NBA 2K7 better
.
Stunt Pilot

Now that’s a flight simulator
.
I’d like one of each please

Wow, these are great. That first one does look like it would be more fun than the old Duck Hunt game
I wonder how much the games cost to play back then?

That first one is my favorite .. I wish I could have been a beta tester for that

I live about 5 minutes from Kennywood Amusement Park, and I remember these types of games from when I was a kid. I used to spend all day in the arcade, and even now I can spend most of my day there… Very cool find

Somebody will probably write about the games that we play now in a few years and call it retro too haha.

These are cool.
Do you know if there are any videos of these in action?
