My father played Battlezone and Red Barron. They had realistic controls and vector drawn images. It was fun.

For whatever reason Red Baron was much harder to find. We went on a late night bike quest to play the only one nearby, which was in an arcade under a pier. We could see the relation to Battlezone, but I wouldn't understand that they shared much of the same HW til years later.
I only ever saw a Red Baron in the arcade at the Circus Circus casino on a family vacation. I wasn't old enough to gamble so spent all my money it instead.
lol, Circus Circus really had a lot of hard to find games, around that time. I too once spent an entire family vacation in there, playing Crazy Climber (another game with dual joysticks).
