Auto launch works perfectly and plunger works great as well. there is minimal modifications required for this retrofit. Note, I haven't begun cleaning this Checkpoint yet.

    If memory serves me correctly, a couple of the last pins that sold on there for stupid money were sold by new users with zero bid/comment history. One was even less than a couple weeks old, if that much. I never sold before listing my Checkpoint. It took about a month of back and forth to get the listing right. That might have been part of the vetting process.

    I would be interested in a good Porsche themed pin for sure. I've had several Porsches over the years -- 944, Boxster, and now a 991.1 Carerra S. Checkpoint is just such a simple uninteresting game that it's hard to let it take up valuable space in the game room, but I would love to lend a spot for a Porsche theme if a new table was good enough to justify the space.

    Hey JodyG Thank you so much for making replacement ramps for RCT! I've been looking for a set for ages. I looked at your website though and I don't see them on there. Are they going to be listed soon and do you ship to Canada? @djscottymiami don’t hesitate for a second having @jodyg ship to us up here. My Checkpoint ramp arrived shockingly fast and in perfect shape, and I have a few friends that have had the same experience, and it really is only a few dollars more for shipping.

    A Checkpoint just sold on Bring a Trailer for $11,500, which is crazy! I'm kind of surprised that a pinball machine was listed on BaT. Lots of comments too. I haven't had the chance to read them all, but it looks like the designer, Joe Kaminkow made an appearance in the comment thread. Here's a link to the listing: https://bringatrailer.com/listing/1990-data-east-checkpoint-pinball/

    Here is the Checkpoint, open to offers. [pinsidead=153100] Also looking to sell this lit translite frame (uses a Spotlight Displays front loading frame) I made that fits an 18.5"x26.5" translite. The one pictured is not this size, so that is why you see the gaps at top and bottom. Asking $125 (cost of material is higher). https://1drv.ms/u/s!Al29me_HocWKgrNgtvmHcjHOrZ3FHw?e=75ev6C

    This is a fun theme idea. How 'bout a "move the payload" mode! Haha see my next post with our draft game rules! Move the payload mode by hitting spinners/switches! Hit scoop at each checkpoint to advance! Keep the ideas coming!

    Data East TMNT and Rottendog board Issues Post #2 in topic

    Posted 13 months ago by Schusler – in Tech: DMD era games ‐ Last reply 13 months ago

    This era of Data East pins and Rottendog boards don't jive well. I had a Batman that the owner had a Rottendog Mpu in. That thing did all sorts of crazy things and not all the time - so it was hard to diagnose. Luckily, I had a spare mpu from Checkpoint which I replaced - thing work likes a champ ever since. Ditch the Rottendog items... you'll pull your hair trying to fix the issue.
