When I was a kid, I remember seeing an arcade cabinet which was decorated with tacky paintings of Uncle Fester, but instead of having a screen with controls it only had metal rod that was like a joystick that you had to hold. It would give you electric shocks of ever increasing power until you gave up, and that was your final score. I always wondered if it ever killed anybody...

I remember them being near other things that took quarters like the fortune teller machine.
