About This Machine

The Wild Cat, manufactured by Games, Incorporated of Chicago and released in the third quarter of 1958, is not a pinball machine but an "electronic upright," or "flasher type" device. As with similar machines, it does not pay out cash; a credit meter increments instead to allow continued play.

No specific gameplay features, theme, or cabinet details are documented for this single-player machine beyond its manufacturer and release timeframe, which was reported in Cash Box on December 27, 1958.

As one of Games, Incorporated's early upright releases, the Wild Cat later spawned several variants — Twin Wild Cat, Super Wild Cat, and Twin Super Wild Cat — suggesting it found enough success to warrant a small product family, though little further documentation of the original machine survives.
