    First one is a football game viewed from overhead (similar in appearanc to the computer game Microprose Soccer). What made this game unusual was its cabinet. To explain the cabinet was like a large box that only reach about 3 feet off the ground and the player looked down on on the screen from above. There were no joysticks and the play was controlled by a trackball. I'm guessing the game would have been around 1986-88?


    The second game is also football related, tho not really. It was an arkanoid bat'n'ball type whos levels were 'football' themed and had enemies who flew in patterns as targets rather than bricks (I think?). Just imagine galaga mixed with arkanoid mixed with football and you're getting close to it. I'd guess this one was around 1987 as I seem to remember it being beside the Vigilante machine in Dublin airport.
