Product Information

Retro videogame stores: There are online stores that sell retro videogames such as DKoldies, Eneba, JJGames, and Level Up where you can buy discontinued games. Do you like going to the fair or carnival to play games so you can win that great big stuffed animal or that classic mirror that has a picture of your favorite Bay Watch star on it? Well, you don't need to go there anymore to enjoy the games unless you really want that mirror with David Hasselhoff on it. EmaWii (September 5, 2007). "Review: Carnival Games (Wii)". GamePro.

Carnival games are usually operated on a "pay per play" basis. Prices may range from a small amount, for example 25 cents, to a few dollars per play. Most games offer a small prize to the winner. Prizes may include items like stuffed animals, toys, or posters. Continued play is encouraged as multiple small prizes may be traded in for a larger prize. Multiplayer games — the " Watergun" game is one example—may change the size of the prize with the number of players. In a more difficult game, including the "Baseball and Basket" or "Stand the Bottle", a large prize may be awarded to any winner. src=" https://secure.gravatar.com/avatar/13e2d53b8dc2052e7e90a51559413ddc?s=96, Marissa.

Carnival games have a poor reputation in some areas. This may be that some carnival games utilize optical illusions or physical relationships that make it hard for a player to judge the game's difficulty. Also, some operators have run games that are rigged to take advantage of unsuspecting players. In many areas, these games are tested by local law enforcement to find unfairly run games.

Some games are simply impossible to win. One such game is the "Push 'em Up" (or "Stand the Bottle") [6] game, which requires the player to stand up a bottle with a 2-tine plastic fork, was featured in episode 5 of Penn & Teller Tell a Lie. The bottles used in the game are weighted on one side, which makes it impossible to stand the bottles upright without tipping them over when the heavier side is rotated to the top. The "Bottle Up," often confused with this game, is simply a skill game where the player uses a fishing pole with a ring attached to the end of the string to stand up the bottle.
