Meadows Games

Short description: Manufacturer of coin-operated video games

Meadows Games was a developer and manufacturer of coin-operated video games established by Harry Kurek as a subsidiary of his contract manufacturing company, Meadows Manufacturing, in 1974. Kurek established the company because he felt the economy of the United States was headed into a recession and he wanted to enter a business he felt would be "recession proof". The company scored a major hit with its 1974 release Flim-Flam, a cocktail-table ball-and-paddle game that sold over 12,000 units.[1] Subsequent games were not as successful, and Kurek sold the company to Holosonics in 1978. Holosonics closed the company down the next year.[2]
