Vintage Game Demonstration: Hit ‘n Run from Ideal (1976)

Editor’s Note: Hit ‘n Run was a fully automatic pinball baseball game that promised the excitement and suspense of a Major League match. The pinball game used a series of levers and springs to randomize the outcomes of each play. Players competed to achieve the most runs by landing their balls in the Hit position of the field while avoiding the dreaded Out, Ball, and Strike positions.
