Cool old tech! We do still have some cassette tapes, no idea where the walkman went.
My parents still have their super 8 camera, projector (needs a new belt, tended to slip when I was a kid), and box full of 8mm film reels. Also a box full of slides and an old slide projector.
Sadly the old pinball machine my grandfather had was sold to a shop.
Thanks to the internet and playing on it for most of my youth, recognized it on image search :)
1970 Dipsy Doodle it was
The oldest piece of tech I wish I owned lol. (Although where to put it!)
I was always fascinated with the inner workings, often played around with it with the glass off, back panels off, door open. Using my fingers to trigger stuff to see what was going in inside. Mechanical tilt mechanism was simply a metal ball on a rail, so if you lift up the pinball machine it would roll backwards and complete a circuit at the end triggering tilt shut off. I love those mechanical anti cheat solutions :) (And of course put that ball in play too haha, more chaos)
