The earliest penny arcades from the nineteenth century had machines called Bagatelle s—a game combining pinball and Billiards . Later, penny arcade machines grew closer to modern pinball. Another form of machine found in penny arcades were Peep Show machines (ancient usage of the term) which allowed the viewer to see various views of objects and later moving pictures. Slot Machine s, love testers, Fortune Teller Machines and other coin operated devices were found in such venues. Penny arcades later led to the creation of Video Arcade s in the 1970s . REFERENCES
