Quoted from Jvspin:If only Cactus Canyon had a cool video mode, it would be perfect...
I'm going to print out this post just so I can actually light it on fire.
Quoted from epthegeek:Clearly the best video mode is no video mode.
I don't totally disagree. Though I am okay with manipulating the pinball in non-pinball ways like Champion Pub (Jump Rope), The Shadow (Battlefield), Big Lebowski (Bowling), etc. I'm sure they are quite a bit more expensive to implement.

It also made the games unique!!
What about Dialed In’s selfie mode? I know it’s not really a mode, but it puts the players face into the pin. It’s interactive and something no other pin has done. It always seems to get everyone laughing whether it’s friends and family or on location. Seeing everyones faces is definitely entertaining- it’s juts something fun and different that’s not available on other pins
I think IJ has the most and the best video modes available. Man I miss my Indy now.
Fish Tales and it's not even close. The only thing I would add is some sailboats to blow up too. Make them go really slow and always be in the way of the more important shots, like the extra ball.
I500s is friggin hard. I wish I could complete it once.
Gotta say Fish Tales is up there with the most unique fun and engaging. Makes you think every time and it's just satisfying to time those shots and hear the silly screams.
Of my collection, going to have to agree with MM save the children video mode. It's hard to get to, a good dose of points, and not exactly easy to win. Plus if you can nab an extra ball during it, it's very satisfying and often a lifesaver. Those bird whacking sounds are top notch - haha!

I had MM for almost 9 months and never saw that mode a single time sadly. Sounds really cool.

the lotto ticket is more of a "mode" then the switch frenzy, its at least a different take on the video mode
Quoted from GLSP3022:Baby Pac Man. By far the best video mode in a pinball game!! And in color!
This wins by default. But it's a bad pinball machine and a bad video game combining to make the sum of their parts even worse...

I disagree. There is more strategy to this game than you think. I used to feel that way until I learned the rules. And there are tricks to outsmarting those smarter ghosts!
I really enjoy the game.
I was always surprised Tron didn’t have a video mode at all. So much they could have done with that one.
GB has a cool video mode (don’t cross the streams)
