But unlike cars I don't need hoists, lifts welders and plasma cutters to work on pins.![]()
LOL, spoken like a newbie... Just wait until you get into WMS DMD era games and you start trying to lift the playfields out of the games to rebuild them. And all the broken scoops....
17 pins, what pin is your favorite and why?
Oof.. that's an amazingly difficult question.
E.g. I love my Cirqus Voltaire.. when my daughter was a baby (who is 24 now), she used to sit on the lockbar leaning up against my chest and watch me play the game. She'd get so excited at the end when the clown would walk across for the match. Hours of fun playing TZ with my wife. One son plays the hell out of AFM and I enjoy the battle with him. Other son is addicted to WhiteWater. Fish Tales call outs are THE BOMB.
I enjoy each game for different reasons. I'm not the guy digging into the noise of this looping shot is 19deg vs 20 and that makes it less good. Or shallow rules vs deep. I have fun playing, just like I have fun driving my Charger and tinkering with it.
Have to get a Cyclone someday (@tron guy's is tempting) because BITD a group of us used to sit down and cycle through 4 player games and BS for HOURS at the arcade.
If you're wondering what game really drew me in. It was F-14 Tomcat. I loved the looping shots and frankly the light show. It was, and still is NUTS.
