They sure loved the fan layout, but then again it sold like hotcakes. AFM and MM basically vacuumed the coins from passing by people's pockets no matter where we put them.
Champion pub sure would've benefitted from the fighter being purely (or partly) virtual instead of the same dude over and over again, I always personally found it one of the weaker games in the otherwise stellar 90s Williams lineup, it was easy to finish on location and we made insane scores with it once the game progressed to the point where you can bet your score for the fights.
