I have never played an original, but I hope to get to at least try one of the remakes.

Back when these machines were "affordable," I was actually able to play one. It was at a truck-stop on Hwy 78, right on the loop in Atlanta - this had to be a dozen years ago. I liked the machine, and it played well. I wasn't all sure why everybody was totally enamored with it (at the time). I do remember it had a yellow "for sale" sticker on the back-glass.
Oh well....
They have one at The Silverball Museum in Asbury, NJ.
The game is great fun. Knocking down the draw bridge and destroying the castle does not get old. And the trolls that pop out of the playfield is a great touch.
I wish they were a little cheaper but for now I just go to the boardwalk in Asbury whenever I get a hankering to play.
This is the game to got me into Pinball. I went on to the pinball map and found one at SS billiards in Minnesota. As a beginner me and my friends(and wife) were immediately drawn to the game even after playing other top titles there. This was few months ago and now there are two remakes around town for public play. SS(one old and one new) and Morts, after playing it there and playing it on Pinball Arcade I am full on hooked on that game and Pinball.
You can still play one at a truck stop, well a gas station anyway, near the Outer Banks of North Carolina. The gas station is called Flippers and they have most of the "rare" pins, like Cactus Canyon, Big Bang Bar, and Medieval Madness. Load up on quarters and go nuts.
