''Flim Flam'' was a ''Pong'' type game released by Meadows Games in 1974. It was one of the most successful ''Pong'' clones of the later period because it focused its attention on the cocktail market, a relatively new cabinet style which broached video arcade games into establishments that would not normally take coin-operated games. On top of that, ''Flim Flam'' was fully featured with a computer opponent to play against, a handicap mode for less skilled players, and used joysticks instead of the more common potentiometers.

Flim Flam was a Pong type game released by Meadows Games in 1974. It was one of the most successful Pong clones of the later period because it focused its attention on the cocktail market, a relatively new cabinet style which broached video arcade games into establishments that would not normally take coin-operated games. On top of that, Flim Flam was fully featured with a computer opponent to play against, a handicap mode for less skilled players, and used joysticks instead of the more common potentiometers.
