another thing that contributes to the popularity of united and ccm bowlers over bally is just the sear numbers . bally stopped making bowlers altogether by 1969 , but any bally bowler after 1959 is pretty rare . united and ccm made bowlers into the 1970s . so there are just a lot more united and ccm bowlers out there , and parts are easier to get . also united and ccm bowlers of the 1960s are more feature - rich with multiple games . ( bally never got into the 6 - game styles that united and ccm used . )

essentially there are
puck bowlers
( aka
shuffle alleys
) and
ball bowlers
( aka
bowling alleys
) , and there are some other variant bowling games too ( discussed below ) . most bowlers ( shuffle or ball ) are six player games . united manufacturing was the premier maker of coin operated bowling and shuffle alley games during their history . there were other companies making these games ( chicago coin and bally for example ) , but united made the bulk of them ( and probably the best games too ) .
( 10 / 49 ) . united continued to make shuffle alley all the way to the 1990s . shuffle alleys are the less desirable of the coin operated bowling games , but most people can fit them in their basement ( unlike the next type of bowler . . . )

by the early 1960s , united and the other manufacturers had developed alternative bowling scoring systems . some games had as many as seven different scoring schemes , which were user selectable at the start of a game . probably the most innovative scoring ideas came from chicago coin . some scoring systems included :

for bowling fans , ball bowlers are the real deal . of the coin operated bowling games , ball bowlers are more desirable than shuffle alleys . unfortunately , bally stopped making ball bowler in 1966 , united in 1970 , and ccm in 1973 . they just took up too much floor space ( even compared to shuffle alleys ) . there is even a rumor that in the 1960s someone tried to sue united for breaking their foot with a dropped ball bowler ball . also ball bowlers were expensive when new ( much more expensive than nearly any other coin operated device ) . for these reasons , 1970 (

swivel action
reciprocating pins , which allowed the pins to move in any direction ( not just backwards like the linear united / ccm games ) . unfortunately parts for these ( often broken ) pins are difficult to find , which presents a problem . but on the other hand , these bally bowlers are probably the best all around contact ball bowler for realism . only the 1960 united

swivel score rack that allowed the game to be serviced from either side , without moving a game from against a rear wall . it was a great repair idea , but the cabeinet sure was ugly ! first used in 1965 on super sonic .
, chicago coin , about 1961 ( exact date unknown ) , large score reels , 4 . 5
balls , 13 . 5 ' , 16 . 5 ' or 21 . 5 ' length , 76
x37
x14
backbox , four different games , wedge style pinhood .
, united , 3 / 58 , a spin and release style roll down bowler with moving sights , uses two 2
balls , 6 foot long , two players , no lane switches ( ball hits pins and uses overhead pin feedback switches instead ) .
united ball bowlers started out at a whomping 14 feet in length ( typically , but 11 to 25 foot alleys were also available ) . later ball bowler were available in even longer lengths , with chicago coin selling their later ball bowlers in lengths up to 32 feet ! ( with added extensions . ) the alley itself was about 18 inches off the ground ( later games were lower ) , and the player actually rolled one ball ( of the usual three balls in the game ) down the alley and hit bowling pins , just like real bowling .
, united , 4 / 57 , four 3
balls , no gutters . united ' s second ball bowler - basically it ' s the same game as their first ball bowler
bowling alley
( 11 / 56 ) , but has two additional sets of score reels for accumulated team scoring . length is 11 or 14 foot lengths ( a 4 foot section could be added to a 14 foot base game to get 18 feet ) . ball does not hit pins but instead travels beneath them and hits lane switches .
, united , 8 / 57 , 3
balls , 11 or 14 foot lengths ( a 4 foot section could be added to 14 foot base game to get 18 feet ) , ball does not hit pins but instead travels beneath them and hits lane switches .
this document covers post - ww2 and later bowling games ( mostly united / williams and chicago coin , but also bally and some other brands too ) . there are some other styles of games here , which loosely following a bowling theme ( i . e . they have a ball or a puck which is launched down an alley ) . this includes some skee - ball , shuffle targettes , bouncing ball shuffles , and other oddities . but all games listed here basically have one thing in common ; they either use a ball or a puck , which is hurled by the player down an alley .
on october 31 , 1964 , williams announced their move to the larger united plant at 3401 n . california avenue , chicago . williams still owns this plant today ( where slot machines are developed , but all williams production has been moved to a new plant in waukegan , il ) .
united ( and later chicago coin ) also sold a hybrid bowler that was a combination of a shuffle alley and a bowling alley . these games had a shorter overall length like a puck bowler ( 6 to 9 . 5 feet long ) , but used 1 . 5
to 3
diameter balls instead of pucks . this hybrid bowler also often used a ball lift motor to return to the ball to the player , like a ball bowler . the ball is actually just let go by the player , and it
rolls down
the tilted lane to the pins . some of these roll down bowlers included

servicing ( aka
free back
or
outlaw sprint wing
, which was only used on four ccm bowlers ) , normal sized score reels ( large score reels abandoned ) , 13 , 16 , 21 foot length , 6 games , similar to grand bowling alley .
the only true contact ball bowlers made was united royal ( 11 / 57 ) , bally lucky alley ( 8 / 58 ) , bally strike bowler ( 11 / 57 ) , ccm tv bowling league ( 11 / 57 ) , ccm lucky strike ( 1 / 58 ) and united bowlarama / mba ( 1960 ) . also some shuffle alleys were contact style too in 1957 / 1958 . for the most part i don ' t see the big deal with contact bowlers - i actually don ' t mind the lane switches ( there was a good reason the manufacturers did not make many contact bowler models ) .
, chicago coin , 3 / 63 , first game with
swing - away

rotating backbox idea was introduced ) , normal sized score reels ( large score reels abandoned ) , 13 , 16 , 21 foot length , 6 games , similar to grand bowling alley .

then there ' s which bowler manufacturer to pick . as discussed above , this is largely personal preference . i like united and ccm bowlers best as i feel the quality and styling is top - notch . bally bowlers feel strange to me personally , but the 1963 - 1969 units are perhaps the best ball bowlers ever made .
, united , 6 / 58 , 4 . 5
balls , 13 / 16 / 17 / 20 foot lengths ( a 4 foot section could be added to the 13 or 16 foot base game to get 17 or 20 feet ) , extra shots can be won at 5th and 10th frame , ball hits pins but uses lane switches for actual pin retraction .
, one player , has stationary small light - up bowling pins above lane . the puck on this game does * not * bounce back to the player after a shot . instead the back drains out the game , and is returned to the player at the front coin door area of the game via a belt ( when the game is over , the puck is kept inside the game ) . essentially this game is just like gottlieb ' s 1950
. here ' s another 1950 ccm bowling alley that was ' updated ' by a chicago coin or maybe a distributor . note the addition of lighted pins on the alley ( non - moving , with an added solid red panel infront of the original bg pin lights ) , and the professionally repainted cabinet ( but not the backbox ) . the background to the backglass is a different color than the above bowling alley , so perhaps this update was done by the factory .
, chicago coin , 12 / 64 , 13 / 16 / 21 foot lengths ( 5 / 8 / 10 foot extensions available ) , 6 games , proturding squared gooseneck pinhood (
hi - style
cabinet ) ,
spare lit
backbox lights showing where to throw ball for a spare , oak lanes now painted gray instead of a natural wood stain , weird green backglass and cabinet paint ( less traditional ) , lane now lit with florescent lamps under pinhood .
as for styling and game play , personally i like the 1961 to 1964 games best . these games usually have multiple games (
flash
being my favorite of the alternative - to - regulation games ) and 4 . 5
balls . by 1964 for united and 1965 for ccm , the games get really ugly in styling . yes they are good playing games , but the classic looks of good backglass graphics , natural oak trim , and cabinet style / paint are gone .
( 1 / 62 ) . ccm ' s variety and united ' s circus / silver were the longest at 9 . 5 and 9 feet respectively , and pixie bowler was 7 . 5 feet long . though these game were smaller , they were not very popular ( or they would have made more of this hybrid bowling game ! ) the rolldown games aren ' t really
bowling
, so they didn ' t sell or earn as well as ball bowlers or even shuffle alleys .
shuffle horseshoes ( shuffle alley - 2nd version ) , chicago coin , early 1950s ( exact year unknown ) , 2 players . instead of hitting bowling pins , there are lighted horseshoe stakes at the end of the alley . if you slide the puck right , you can get a ringer just like in a real game of horseshoes . vary your shot slightly and have your puck hit just to a side of the stake and you can get awarded varying points . a
blow
is not getting close to the stake , and you get zero points .
frozen score motor : during the 1950s , united used an enclosed score motor ( unlike gottlieb or williams ) . the same grease that solidified on the score reels and stepper units is used inside the score motor ! this can be a bear to fix , necessitating
splitting the case
on the score motor , and cleaning it ( the case is riveted together ) . sometimes 3 - in - 1 oil can be squirted inside the case ( without
splitting the case
) , on motors that are only slightly sluggish .
being the ' end of the line ' ) are great games with nice natural oak trim , handsome looks , and feature - rich games . to me , the 1964 ccm majestic and 1962 ccm royal crown are the big ball bowler for looks , play , features , and repairability . but even the 1965 to 1973 ccm bowlers are good games , maybe not as good looking , but still good games . ( i have to admit , the ccm lazy susan head makes repair * way * easier than any united or bally game . )
as for looks , united ' s 1957 to 1960 games are hard to beat , and their quality is quite good , probably better than ccm . but from 1961 to 1964 , i prefer ccm games for looks and play . also ccm bowlers are feature rich , with good play action and fun options . and they were less expensive at their release , so there is a good supply of these fun playing ccm ball bowlers out there . because of this i really like ccm ball bowlers prior to 1965 . from 1965 to 1973 , none of the bowlers look good ! the ccm
lazy susan swivel
score rack cabinet style ( used from
, used a small metal puck which slide down an alley toward targets at the other end . in place of bowling pins , shuffle targettes used a bulls - eye - style target lined with open holes . a
lip
at the end of the alley launched the puck up into the bulls - eye , earning different amounts of points depending on where the puck fell . after a set number of pucks had been played , the points were totaled . these shuffle targettes were a big success , and united continued to make shuffle targette games into the 1960’s . these games were made mostly in the early 1950s , and are about as collectible as shuffle alleys .
( 1957 ) . notice none of these machines use
skee ball
in the name and the scoring is a bit different , due to potential problems with philadelphia toboggan . united didn ' t make any ( they stuck to the skee - alley which used a puck instead of a ball ) , probably because they didn ' t want to deal with legal hassles of using skee - balls . i personally don ' t like any of the philadelphia toboggan company skee - ball machines , as they don ' t have the quality of ccm or genco machines ( but the philly toboggan machines are pretty easy to find ) , and also don ' t have the interesting scoring .

investors reacted favorably to the deal , pushing shares of alliance up $ 1 . 25 to $ 20 . 26 wednesday .
century has lined up partners to fund the purchase , with financing contingent upon obtaining gaming licenses in nevada , lincoln said .
he declined to comment on the company ' s long - term strategy once the deal is finalized . century , which employs about 40 , has been eyeing a deal with alliance for at least nine months , he said .
the bally unit - - which reported a 43 percent increase in revenue driven by game sales that were up 50 percent for the quarter ended march 31 - - has a well - known brand that is emblazoned on tens of thousands of machines nationwide .
the transaction is subject to several conditions , including that it achieve a minimum cash flow of $ 21 million during a specific period prior to closing and that century achieve necessary licenses from nevada regulators .
the purchase is an opportunity to acquire a slot route operator with a
proven track record , an experienced management team and a substantial base of proprietary technology ,
lincoln said .
we also will continue to look at new opportunities to further enhance our position as the industry leader ,
he said .
alliance also intends to sell its 49 percent stake in video services , a slot route operator in the new orleans region , to gentilly gaming llc by june 30 , 2004 . vsi operates about 710 machines in nine off - track betting parlors in the region . alliance intends to sell all of its vsi stock to gentilly , a newly formed company of new orleans investors . the companies didn ' t disclose the cost of the transaction .
revenue for the nevada slot route fell 5 percent and cash flow fell 29 percent for the quarter ended march 31 . revenue for the louisiana route fell 7 percent and cash flow fell 25 percent .
the third subsidiary , european manufacturer bally wulff , will be sold to an unnamed private equity investment group for $ 16 . 5 million in cash . the deal is expected to close by july 31 . alliance said it will take a charge on the sale in the second fiscal quarter to reflect the unit ' s declining value .
alliance also is reviewing plans to refinance debt issues worth $ 190 million and $ 150 million by the first fiscal quarter of 2004 , which would result in a pre - tax charge of about $ 12 million .
in april , alliance raised its earnings - per - share estimate for fiscal 2003 to 88 cents based on the strength of bally gaming . including a 20 cent charge for the write down of bally wulff , earnings would be 68 cents , the company said wednesday . the company anticipates earning about 80 cents per share from its bally gaming and systems unit and about 8 cents from its soon - to - be discontinued operations this fiscal year .
this is the culmination of several years of planning
since around 1999 , bally gaming vice president of marketing marcus prater said .
that was the year the company ' s former chief executive , morry goldstein , left the troubled company and appointed bob miodunski as chief operating officer .
the bally wulff division has been a cash drain for alliance for some time . but the company had held off from selling it because its value would be dampened by poor performance .
under miodunski , the company decided to cut costs and reduce debt while focusing on its bally unit , prater said .
the future of vsi ' s 60 or so employees is too early to determine because that deal is further off , prater said .
the bally wulff deal is expected sooner but the investment group is still formulating its management strategy , he said . the berlin - based subsidiary employs about 300 people and makes wall - mounted gambling machines specifically for the german market .
unit revenue fell 8 percent and cash flow dropped 38 percent for the quarter ended march 31 .

century gaming ceo steve arntzen said the name change “better reflects” the products offered in both nevada and montana .
“this centralization not only streamlines operations to realize significant economies of scale for the company , ” arntzen said , “it encourages implementation of best practices and policies that combine to make century products smarter and far more advanced . ”
the company recently launched several technical upgrades ; game tender , which allows for continual monitoring , faster bonus awarding and up - to - the - minute data of the company’s gaming machines , and i3 , which allows cash for play at any gambling establishment where century operates the games .
the system was recently installed at 54 rebel gasoline stations and convenience stores in southern nevada .
“our system provides valuable marketing information to management while delivering strong technology support to convenience store clerks who don’t have the ability to have direct one - on - one contact with key players , ” he said .
“our ultimate goal is to deepen player engagement and loyalty , ” arntzen said .
