LAI Games wins AMOA innovator award

March 13, 2020

LAI Games won the Amusement & Music Operators Association Innovator Award for HYPERpitch, the single or double-player baseball-style pitching game that challenges would-be major leaguers to compete for the fastest, most accurate throw, according to a press release.

With the Innovator Award, the AMOA recognizes the efforts of manufacturers and suppliers in bringing exciting new products to market for the amusement and entertainment industry. LAI Games has won the award for the previous three years for its Virtual Rabbids: The Big Ride, Let's Bounce and HYPERshoot, and the Snapshot 2 photo booth. 

"We consider the AMOA Innovator Award to be the premiere award in our industry, because it is voted on by operators," Chris Brady, LAI Games vice president of sales, said in the press release. "It is an honor for HYPERpitch to be chosen this year."

HYPERpitch is a skill game featuring lights that chase the ball down the HYPER tunnel while sound effects create a sense of power as the ball hits the target. Real-time sports commentary adds to the competitive atmosphere as each player gets three attempts to pitch a ball at the bull's-eye.
