For Over 40 Years, I've Wanted to Play That Cool-Looking 'Killer Shark' Arcade Game Briefly Seen in 'Jaws'

A brief scene in Steven Spielberg's classic 1975 thriller 'Jaws' shows a kid at a beachfront arcade playing an early '70s 'electro-mechanical' game called 'Killer Shark' that still looks pretty cool.

    Killer Shark has average gameplay, you are not missing much, although the stubby pistol-speargun is cool to use. All mechanical workings inside.

    Very cool, but is anything as cool as that Space Wars Computer Space cabinet in the same scene?

        That was a great rabbit hole to fall in.
