Currently, the only record of this game existing is from the movie ぽんこつ (Ponkotsu). We can't tell much about the game except that it is a large shooting gallery setup. There are at least 2 globes hanging from the ceiling that are slowly rotating at the speed of a mirror ball, but those might just be decoration.

The scene is dimly lit, but if you look at the background you can see this sign:
It appears to be a projectile shooting range titled 宇宙戦争ゲーム (space war games).
This scene is filmed at 後楽園ゆうえんち (Korakuen Yuenchi) which opened in 1955. (archive)
