  • Patent number: 6695698
    Abstract: A dispensing game system includes a prize capsule storage hopper above two automatic hopper loaders that replenish the game below with prize capsules as needed. Two Ferris wheels carry free swinging gondolas that receive and hold the prize capsules from the loaders. Two or more player-activated actuator arms located next to the outer edge of the Ferris wheels are used to hit targets attached to the moving gondolas, in turn causing the gondolas to tip forward and release the prize capsule, which then falls down and rolls into the prize opening for the player to collect.

  • Patent number: 6550774
    Abstract: A dispensing fishing game system includes a prize capsule storage bin in the form of a three dimensional play field at the bottom of a cabinet. A drive mechanism controls a fishing rod with lifelike operation. An external fishing rod hand and spool mechanism are activated by a player to manipulate the inside fishing rod mechanism to move side to side, or back and forth, a fishing hook in order for a player to move the hook and snag one of the prizes. Once hooked, the prize is lifted and released over a prize chute which then falls down and rolls into a prize opening for the player to collect.
