Well, I finally found the right box. My Black Knight hadn't seen the light of day in almost five years, ever since we moved in late 2003, until today! So, as promised, here are some decent pics. My scanner is acting up, but I'll get a nice scan of the instructions up here eventually.
So, without further ado:
I hope it was worth the wait! Feel free to use them on your own web sites (a credit would be nice, my full name is Dan Quella)! |

Yes, very nice! But why is it so rare, given every other Entex game apart from AV and Select-a-game are so common? Surely they must have manufactured them in the thousands... |

Apparently not! It's even rarer than SAG and AV.
Who else even has one, apart from Rik's loose one and mine? |

It's definitely one of the later games Entex made, and it's just a re-branded Raise the Devil pinball... I have a feeling they just didn't make that many of them because there weren't a lot of orders for it... Handheld games were mainly for younger kids, and the young kids probably wouldn't have recognized the connection to the popular arcade pinball machine. They had the opportunity to license Dungeons and Dragons for the pinball game, but they didn't think D&D would catch on or be all that popular... Ooops...
Until Dan actually found this game, I had always assumed it was a game that never actually got released... Still, you'd think if just one game got into each Toys R Us around the country, more than two would have shown up by now... It's weird how some games just seem to vanish.

As much as I enjoy having the only known boxed one, I wish another would show up on ebay, just so I could find out what mine is worth! (Definitely more than the $100 I BINed mine for!) |
