Support Our WorkRo Go, released by D. Gottlieb & Co. in the early 1970s, represents a classic example of electro-mechanical pinball design during a pivotal era in arcade gaming history. The machine's straightforward naming convention and design aesthetic were characteristic of Gottlieb's approach during this period, when the company was one of the dominant forces in pinball manufacturing.
The machine featured a relatively clean playfield design typical of early 1970s pinball, with standard bumpers, drop targets, and scoring mechanisms all powered by mechanical relays and switches. The art package likely employed the bold, graphic style common to the era, though specific details of the artwork theme are not widely documented.
Ro Go would have been produced during a significant transition period in pinball history, just a few years before the industry would begin its shift toward solid-state electronics. While not necessarily a groundbreaking or revolutionary machine, it represents an important chapter in pinball evolution, demonstrating the refined mechanical engineering that characterized the final years of the electro-mechanical era.
