The voice in the video is in "viking-language" (Norwegian).

It's good to see our home grown Cascade is now grabbing decent prices. For too many years they just sat at £60 then all of a sudden you can't get one for under a ton and a bit.
I think the fact they were from the 70s and only made to operate on 1np (although we've all seen them described on eBay as being from the 50s or even earlier) kept them outside the interest of a lot of collectors.

Couldn't agree more BP, I remember only about 2 years ago I saw a Cascade in a 'junk shop' I did look at it but walked away: front paintwork was in a bad state and the shop wanted £450 !!!!

This machine has text on the front-glass, partially adapted to Norwegian language.
Object of the game is to flick a coin into the playfield. Each coin is flicked thee times. To obtain the highest payout a payout slot in each of the three "floors" must be hit.
Dropcase/flick-a coin machines were the dominant type of coin-ops for approx 40 years. The fun factor with this one is the 3 flick action :-)
