HINT: Avoid shooting the bunnies and owls until you have cleaned the pipes and bonus letters. Every spot you free up by shooting one of these harmless low-point creatures creates a gap that can be filled with bullet-eating, low point, dangerous ducks. Shoot those bullet boxes above all else!
The cabinet has woodgrain sides, a color monitor overlay and an orange marquee that lists the manufacturer as Gremlin/Sega.
