    Display technology sort of worked out as the cleanest sub-division between eras. I don't think the LCD era needs to be split yet--it's still fairly new and still developing. for pedantic reasons, what would Pin 2k games be grouped as? Proto LCD? Does that also apply to Baby Pacman and Caveman? (first video modes!)

    What is the Eegah mode? It should be another Haunt, likely to be added to the pool of secret haunts. It was a mode that was supposed to be in the game and even the options for it are in the menu still, so it was coming, but then the creator had passed away and it went MIA after and we didn't know if we would ever see it finished The movie Eegah is highlighted on the backglass artwork since day one (the caveman).

    Hello! I've also been in the Caveman Club since yesterday. I bought a caveman for our museum, unfortunately it has been sitting there for the last 15 years and I still don't know if it works. Yesterday I cleaned it and removed the MPU board. Today I cleaned it and installed a gold cap. There is still a lot to do and I hope it works. Unfortunately the joystick is no longer original, I hope to find one or be able to recreate it. I look forward to exchanging ideas with you. [att=7788893,3584927 caption=""]

    Otherwise is there NVRAM for data east? I haven't looked into it yet. NVRAM is so easy on a DE a caveman could do it. https://www.pinitech.com/products/6264_nvram.php

    NBA Whatnow? Learn something new every day! Mac’s are super rare and kinda hated, but I always found them very cool! Look into their arcade/pinball machines. They mounted CRTs into the backglass to act as a digital display and some played games. Kinda like Baby Pac/Granny and the Gators/Caveman but full sized.

    Worst pinballs ever Post #166 in topic

    Posted 22 months ago by IgorZhu – in All Pinball ‐ Last reply 21 months ago

    About Mr. Game's pinballs, maybe they seem good, especially the Toni Ramunni's artwork, but these games have very bad video modes which similar to Caveman and Granny and the Gators. For example, in Dakar machine rides too slow: https://youtu.be/n7yO2D5a4Xs Mac Attack represents a bad clone of Capcom's platform games likes Mega Man and Bionic Commando: https://youtu.be/3wgTC_9-Hkk World Cup is even worse than Flipper Football: https://youtu.be/5lpQiV1_PIQ

    David Thiel is a master who gave us many of the killer sounds of Data East and Stern!!!! Incredibly underrated He also created music cues and sounds for Gottlieb's pinballs, especially Caveman, Rocky and Krull. Krull sounds fantastic and music from Punk! so catchy. Rock also reuses one of Thiel's music from Reactor: https://youtu.be/d2pcVehU9Ig

    So your point is because the cavemen didn't have taxes, therefore we are all wrong. Got it. Caveman infrastructure was notoriously underfunded. Weak power grid. Collapsing bridges. Wooly mammoth population dangerously unchecked. These are very complicated issues! I think we are about halfway to having them solved, hopefully this thread is allowed to continue so we can figure it all out by next week.

    Its a difficult situation because kids were involved. As hurt and embarrassed as the parents were - their claim of discrimination is probably going to be difficult to prove but I'm not a lawyer (just a simple Caveman). Legal action wont be cheap if they decide to go forward with it. If the establishment asks someone to leave then that's their discretion. I always think of the Seinfeld Soup Nazi episode. Working in any customer service industry is difficult and I don't envy anyone doing so today.

Has anyone come up with a way to replace the 24v back glass lights with leds or at least normal 6v lamps? Coin Taker sells #313 LED’s that use the 28 volts. I have them in my Black Hole, Haunted House, and Caveman and they work great!

    That's what the folks at Gottlieb thought too. How well did that thought process end up for them? Um, they made Caveman? Which of course, was a disaster. And before that, they went Super outside the box / innovation and served up Challenger, an even bigger disaster. People just don't want shit like that.
