Coin-operated shooting gallery Repair Shop, from Pan Amusements, received positive feedback when it debuted at the IAAPA Attractions Expo last month.
Managing director Paul Whittaker, said: "Remarkably the gallery, which made up part of our stand, was sold within an hour of the show opening and we also received a number of other firm commitments."
Not only a new theme, Repair Shopis another milestone in Pan’s commitment to constantly improve both the movement and electronic control of its galleries. "Although our galleries are a traditional amusement we have to be aware of the high standards of the latest characterisation and animation," said Whittaker. "After all, we invented this kind of attraction so we have to set the benchmark." The new gallery features multi-action elements on all targets and have an all-age and international appeal.
Pan, making its 15th consecutive appearance at the show, noticed that this year there were far more visitors from South America, particularly Brazil, Chile and Columbia. India and China also offer huge potential for the company.
The Sideshow midway game which was mainly promoted on the Sega Amusements stand continues its success and has a new bonus feature to increase its attraction. Sega now has a worldwide distribution agreement with Pan for Sideshow.
