    Apparently it is what is known as a rigged rental which is the equivalent of a quarter muncher. The game was so difficult that it would be to hard for new players to beat during the rental period to force them to buy it. It doesn't seem like there was an actual arcade version, just a case of mixed metaphors. edit: typo
