The game I'm asking about is called BattleTech.  According to the moderator,
(contrary to my impression) it is an arcade game (I had thought it was
a building-sized getup, reminiscent of Photon).

The radio article I heard specifically described fighting with other
players instead of the machine.  Would this imply some sort of LAN
connecting player boxes in an arcade?  Is "Joe's Pin-ball" really up
to LAN management 1/2 :-)?
