Introduction.
Ralph Coppola and Jack Willert called their company 'Innovative Concepts in Entertainment', hence the acronym 'ICE'. The very first Chexx hockey table shipped from ICE's suburban Buffalo plant Feb 3, 1983. ICE sold over 5000 Chexx tables in the first year (7000 in the first 18 months).This was quite a feat as the amusement business in 1983 was very much video dominated. At the time the Buffalo NY company built and sold its games from a shop located in the township of Tonawanda NY, not far from American Wurlitzer's fabled jukebox factory in North Tonawanda.
Chexx Hockey is still in production today in its 'Super Chexx' form.Counting all the improvements done on the basic game, (1983 Chexx, 1988 Chexx, 1993 Super Chexx,2001 Super Chexx), ICE has sold close to 20,000 domed ice hockey tables. It even made its way into thehome sports retail market with a non-coin operated version.The first Chexx version was blue (well except in Canada which got a red version) andhad a long CPU board and was known as 'Chexx Hockey'. This had the USA (or Canada)versus Russian/USSR hockey teams, taking advantage of the US/Russian hockey rivalry of the 1980 olympics. When the Berlin Wall fell November 9, 1989 (and torn down by end of 1990), ICE decided to go with a USA versusCanada theme on their new red Super Chexx model. The current flavor of Chexx gameshas 'home vs. away', which is more generic and less appealing to me personally.
Interestingly, Chexx hockey may have been copied from a 1970s Sega game calledFace-Off (these two games are just too similar).

As a side note, in 1985 ICE sold a Kixx soccerversion of their Chexx hockey, but it didn't sell like Chexx Hockey sold.
The Super Chexx version had some improvements over the original Chexx Hockey. Themain improvement is time counts for each period and 'shots on goal'is tracked in the dome's scoreboard. The original blue game used three 'ICE'lights to indicate the period, where the red Super Chexx used an actual LED tocount down time in the period. The puck is magnetic, and in front of each goal is a set of reed switches underneath theplastic playfield. As the puck goes over the switches it closes the switches. Thisgives a 'shot on goal' read-out on the score board, and the crowd producesan 'OHHHH' noise (the 'OHHHH' noise though is present in all versions of Chexxhockey right from 1983). On Super Chexx any time the reed switch in front ofthe goal is closed, the shot on goal LED increments.If the puck goes into the goal, it rolls down an aluminum railand passes another magnetic switch. This is what scores the goal and of coursethe crowd noise responds to the goal. A moment latera solenoid automatically kicks the puck up from under center ice and onto the playing fieldto continue play (the Boo button can also be pressed anytime to eject the puck manually). The game is timed (adjustable), but will continue to play pastthe set time until a goal is scored.
On Chexx/Super Chexx there is always a winner.The game continues play even after game time has run out until a goal is scored(the game is purely mechanical in regards to the players and puck,and can not stop play if the puck is on the ice).If a goal is scored tying the game after the end of the game time (even though byNHL hockey rules the game would be over and the winner declared when time ran out), sudden death is played(this is indicated by the period number flashing on the score board or the ICElamp cycling left to right). If the game is 'over' (time has run out) and say the score is 2-to-1,and the losing team scores tying the game, the puck is returned to the iceand the game continues. This is sudden death. The reason the game does this isbecause there is no way to stop a game when time runs out unless a goal is scored and the puck isnot kicked out to the ice. The machine wants to ensure there is never a tie.
All Chexx hockey games play the U.S. national anthem (Super Chexx can also playthe Canadian anthem) at thebeginning of the game (2001 and later games the anthem actually sounds good - earliergames and the singer sounds sick!) There is even a 'boo' buttonto get the crowd to make a 'BOOOO' noise (used to eject the puck too), and to abbreviatethe national anthem and eject the puck at the beginning of the game.
