Why don't some vids have power buttons? Just curious. I have three
video games right now -

Stern Berzerk - Power button on top
Atari Kangaroo - I hear it has a power button, but it's in an
inconvenient spot. Never used it.
Atari Frogger - No power button

As a pinball machine collector, I don't get it. I just want to
understand... Is my Frogger just a freak? I mean, why would there not
be an on/off switch?
