“I REALLY love Diner. I'd like to buy one if I can find it for the right price. The call-outs are hilarious (albeit slightly culturally offensive) and the flow ROCKS. This one is a definite KEEPER. It's hard for me to find much bad about this game. Another great Sys 11.”
“Sorry, I really do not like this game. I didn't like the original BK, and this one of incredibly boring for me too. There's just not enough to do in the game, and the playfield is a mess to me. Personal opinion, but I would never buy this one.”
“Wow. This game is seriously a looker. The changing faces of the Bride is sure to grab your friends' eyes. It's also incredibly fun to play! I really dig this game. The only downside to me is the upper right corner of the game: I wish I could see what's going on under the top plastic playfield. Not a fan of hidden areas in games. I'm nitpicking though. Great System 11 (which are easily my fav).”
“I'm not a huge Attack From Mars. Truth be told, I'd rather own the way less expensive Pinball 2000 version (Revenge From Mars). Love the audio and animations. The theme is fantastic. I just don't dig the game. The flow doesn't do it for me. Hitting the saucer over and over is too repetitive for me, and the game's price tag is just outrageous. Pass.”
“Great game. Quite provocative for family, but a fantastic flow! Love the neon skeleton ramp.”
“I like AC/DC so the music and theme is a plus for me. Great lighting on the LE's. Not crazy about the lower playfield but I guess it's better than big head. Swinging bell is a great toy and the major thing missing from the pro for me. Deep rules and a ton of fun to play keeps me coming back for more. My favorite Stern.”
“Our whole family, wife and kids included love this game. Definitely a keeper. Lots of fun ramp shots. The rule set is easy to fugure out but is not to deep but still fun. We love the music! I love ramps and this has lots of ramps!”
“Awesome game once you get into it. Personally i love ramps so cant think of a nicer flowing game than this. Tough shots to be had, great sounds and lighting affects. RED, is just brilliant. Don't know why the RPG doesn't get a better rating ; its more interesting than the boring cannon on T2. Artwork on cab and playfield depict the theme very well in my opinion so it shouldn't be slated
Think this is going to be a keeper.”
“I'm rating this pin on my somewhat limited play time on a pin that's not 100% coded. I must say that even as the pin is now it is a fantastic playing and visually stimulating machine. The pin is a real work of art both in design and function that will only get better as the code evolves and is updated. Great theme, great pin all around.”
“Love this game. Not a wide body fan but this game gets alot of attention by everyone that stops by great modes fun fast flow pick one up if you get the chance.”
“Mousin' is a fast playing game with plenty of smooth ramps. The mouse trap locks and the mouse hole are excellent touches.
The rules are better than most system 11s as players must build up their own jackpots (rather than a community jackpot like High Speed or Cyclone), and muiltiple high scoring jackpots can be achieved in the same multiball. Getting a few 5M jackpots in the same multiball is awesome.
The post-game music and the HSTD music is fantastic.
However, the ability to loop the center ramp (and to a lesser degree the right ramp) over and over for decent points takes away from some of this game's greatness.
Overall, a fun, well thought out game worth playing.”
“Good pin! VERY underrated... Lot's of good shots - and ya gotta love the bouncing boobies animation!”
“Perfect for home use! If you haven't got one... GET ONE!!!!! NEVER gets boring!”

“I've played a lot of different FLINTSTONES at a lot of different locations over the years & it has delivered EVERY TIME! Visually this game separates itself from the pack with it's unique apron & Bedrock houses lining the cabinet walls. On top of EXCELLENT DOTS, LOTS TO DO at both ends of the PF and a REALLY NICE SOUND PACKAGE...this game's main strength is FUNESS!! It's just lots & lots of fun! The only shortcoming for me was that the art package revolved around the FLINTSTONES MOVIE characters - not the CARTOON characters I loved as a kid! So when I was able to get an alternate CARTOON translite & playfield decal...FLINTSTONES moved from my WISH LIST to my COLLECTION!”
“One of the most underrated machines out there! Great gameplay, great rules, file cabinet is cool, music is awesome!”
“Meh... so-so game. The initial skill shot is incredibly lame... and the amount of multi-balls available kind of cheapens their effect. Also, the flippers made it really easy to trap the ball... I like the drop targets and reverse drop targets... backglass is beautiful.
The game doesn't have a great game feel... its dark and mysterious, which is cool... but the machine really conceals the real purpose of the game and after a while it just feels like you are completing a task without any real sense of why.
I suggest giving it a good play before you own it.”
“An incredibly fun game- and when things are rolling- its the fastest game around. The hologram phase is a well-worth challenge. Wonderful to look at and a great theme.”
“Absolutely a fun game It is great to have Jersey Jack Pinball as a new pinball company as they will continue to make pinball the next generation I love the giant video DMD it definitely has a feel to the game and the colorful bright leds to the game I hope to play this game more”
“I am a lifelong Trekkie and ST:TNG is my holy grail pin. I had very-high expectations here, but I was NOT disappointed when I finally brought one home. This pin honors its theme to a T. Long shots, fast play, lots of tight targets, ball cannons, video modes, actual actor voice callouts... it's all packed into this very-heavy widebody.
My favorite pinball "feature" is drop targets, but I don't miss them at all in this game. The outlane drains can be maddening, even with the extender "mods", but that frustration keeps me coming back for more. My wife also gives this game two thumbs up! There are many toys and lots of places to mod this game, so it lends itself to personalization.”
“INCREDIBLE. PURE and SIMPLE... INCREDIBLE”
“So this is a pinball machine.
Nuff said.
All the standards are there and available. Nothing more, nothing less.
How anyone can give this piece of junk a high score, knowing all the other table out there and what they can do and knowing what the tron movies stand for, well, very hard to relate to that.
The backglass is cool, otherwise there is nothing much to look forward to. Really boring.
This one was standing next to AC/DC, just to make it more obviously bad.
But maybe it was broken?”
“Ok.
Why not always like this?
Does it really need a project where the license owners will kick your ass if you mess up so that you will finally get your shit together?
Next to tron(which sucks), transformers ect ect, this really stands out in the areas of creativity, fun, lighting, theme realisation, bang for the buck.
Really.
The lighting, the whole thing is....AWESOME.
This is the kind of table I would show to people to show them what pinball engeneering can do.
Please understand me. I have nothing against this company, personally. But they are just omnipresent and I cannot believe the lackluster way they just spit out one thing after he other, never giving a shit(!)(I mean look at the the way the tron table is put together, how the little lightcyclemodels are "implemented") and then this...
wow.
Really, really, really, really weird.”
“This is the game that keeps drawing me back. Not a huge FG TV Show fan but the pin currently gets the most play in my collection of 64 machines. Love the humor, love the call outs, mini playfield is a gas.”
