# Solar Powered Arcade Game Soccermania By lukasz bohosiewicz | Published 2007-11-12 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-power-soccermania References: [highwaygames](http://www.highwaygames.com/body.php3?action=news_st&view=detail&news_id=2372) & [soccermania.pl](http://www.soccermania.pl) A Polish amusement games producer has shown his kicker game, Soccermania, at Surexpo 2007 Warsaw. This [coin-operated soccer game](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/electronic-gaming-machines) can be ordered with a Sun Power System (Sun battery, accu, power regulator). The Kriss-Sport Soccermania machine works up to two days without sun. **Implications** - The eco-friendly Soccermania machine works by using only [solar panels and a rechargeable battery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-pool-ionizer), along with the sun. Although the featured model comes with a hard solar panel, there are talks about making ones with [elastic foil](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/michael-jantzen-2) instead. The Kriss-Sport Soccermania machine provides a great way to have fun, while saving the environment. Perhaps other businesses will follow suit and start developing more eco-friendly toys that are also solar-powered. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.8/10 - Popularity: 34% | Activity: 42% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 70% men, 30% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### Why This Trend Is Growing - **Eco-friendly Toys:** Developing more eco-friendly toys that are solar-powered presents a disruptive innovation opportunity for the toy industry. - **Solar-powered Games:** Creating solar-powered games like Soccermania opens up possibilities for disruptive innovation in the gaming industry. - **Flexible Solar Panels:** Exploring the use of elastic foil instead of hard solar panels in solar-powered machines can lead to disruptive innovation in the renewable energy industry. ### Industries Being Reshaped - **Toy Industry:** The toy industry can take advantage of the trend towards eco-friendly toys by developing solar-powered toys that are fun and environmentally friendly. - **Gaming Industry:** The gaming industry can explore the potential of solar-powered games like Soccermania to provide unique gaming experiences while reducing energy consumption. - **Renewable Energy Industry:** The renewable energy industry can consider using flexible solar panels, such as elastic foil, to create more versatile and efficient solar-powered machines. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Solar-Powered Golf Carts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solarpowered-golf-cart.md) - [Sustainable Solar-Powered Beers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/oakham-sun-city.md) - [Solar-Powered Remote Controls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/omni-remotes-model-p.md) - [Encapsulated Soccer Furniture](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/table-football-game.md) - [Solar-Powered Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rpt02-sol.md) - [Solar-Powered Charging Robots](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-mars-bot.md) - [Solar-Powered Rover Kits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-rover-kit.md) - [Solar-Powered Wireless Headphones](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rpt02-sol-headphones.md) - [Solar-Powered Pool Sanitizers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/solar-pool-ionizer.md)
