any opinions on how good or bad this is?

I've seen a local guy listing this for months.
 
I had one a few years ago. It was a pretty good party game. Up to six players and even said the 'F***' word but you can turn that off in a family type of mode. The bad thing about it was the large hi-res display. That DMD was only used on this game. Very expensive to replace. I had a very had time selling mine when I wanted to get rid of it. At $500 I had no takers. My game was in nice condition with a perfect display and a little wear on the playfield near the flippers. In today's market with everything going up in price I am sure I would have no problems selling it at $500-$600. I did end up parting my out. Most of the boardset was your standard Capcom pinball boards so they could have been used in several games (Big Bang Bar, Pinball Magic, Kingpin, Airborne, etc). I kept the boardset for my extra set (for my BBB and PM), sold the FF display on eBay for $250, junk the cabinet and parted out the playfield. Now some people would pay $400 for a nice used working DMD display for this game.

Overall an OK game in a large collection (I had over 20 pins at the time). I would not own one in a small collection of pins. A weird game with little replay value (except for parties). Kind of like Hyperball, a good party game but in a small collection does not hold any chance.

If you do buy one make sure the display works good and don't pay a lot for this title.
 
$200


It's a picture of a guys garage. I"m not doubting it's a scam, but I didn't think it was.
 
I'd buy one, it is fun to play, with good sound calls. I think HSAPinball stated well, good for a larger collection, not so much in a smaller one.
 
it was 1st posted a few weeks ago at 600. i know several people that tried to contact the seller and no reply. a few weeks later they lower the price. still trying to contact the seller.still no response. if it isn't a scam and the seller just has not responded or checked his or her email/spam file i hope you get it tron guy. for 200 you cant lose.

I'm not going to try, I just wondered what guys thought. I have other things to pay before I get new toys. :)
 
I replied twice

I emailed them twice-no reply. Kinda strange-maybe it sold.
 
The guy called me back

The guy called me back, sounds like it has power but he really doesn't know.
I'm not super excited to snag but I might if no one else does.
