    ipdb.notes
    This is not a pinball machine. This is a device called an "electronic upright" or just "upright". Also called a "flasher type" slot machine. Keeney announced "Little Buckaroo" in The Cash Box, Apr-11-1959, page 119, pointing out that it was "strictly a 'one-coin' game", an apparent departure from earlier games and based on what Keeney said was operator demand. The very next week, Keeney advertised this game as 'Big Round-Up', acknowledging the name change. The backglass kept the same artwork, only the name changed. They later reported that sales took off after this change.
