Gary, or anyone else collecting arcade boards i was wondering which video game was first to come out for which board, some of course like wayne gretzky was the 1 and only on the PHOENIX board and Golden Tee Fore had 2 boards, red and green, but what about the rest? which most had several titles. FLAGSTAFF , SEATTLE  , VEGAS , DENVER

ICE Home Run Derby (1996)-  *THE* FIRST COIN-OP GAME USING 3Dfx hardware! Very unusual baseball game, this was a virtual reality type where the player actually swung a bat at a virtual ball while in a batting cage! The machine had sensors that picked up the bat location when swung. One article states they were magnetic sensors, another mentions infrared sensors.

Found the dates for release by year, any ties and i'll look it up by month, least this cuts down the list.
