Fels Games Malibu The Helicopter Game 🚁

Well, I was working on an article while driving in the car and accidentally hit publish. Oops. My bad. So here is a very brief article on a brand new game that is scheduled to come to market this year, Malibu The Helicopter Game by a company called Fels Games.

This game is a throwback to games of the past.

Priced at $5,500 it is scheduled to begin shipping before the end of June 2025.

It looks pretty cool, but I haven’t personally had a chance to play it yet. It is at this weekend’s Texas Pinball Festival. So seek it out and let me know what you think!

“Malibu (a.k.a. The Helicopter Game) is a fun and unique arcade game where players score points by maneuvering the chopper over the three-dimensional playfield and into metal pins representing checkpoints. The more checkpoints the player contacts with the helicopter’s metal arms, the higher their score.

I bought a Helicopter Game from Hans and it's very reliable compared to my pinball machines. It has over 5000 minutes played n have spent 35 minutes tightening 4 lose screws on the joystick... simple n easy repair. Highly reliable fun n addicting game. A+ Reliability Rating.

It strongly depends on the location, so I can give you only relative information. It usually makes a little more than your good earning pinball machine (e.g. Addams Family or Medieval Madness), but consistently, without the usual earnings drop off after three month. Check out our Facebook page at https://facebook.com/felsgames to see pictures of the game on location. You can find pictures of games that have well over 10,000 games played in less than a year. But as I said, it really depends on the location. In addition to that, the game is extremely low maintenance compared to any other mechanical game. All-in-all a really good deal for any arcade!
