Quoted from PinMonk:

Lethal Weapon 3 - Mel was IN it and Schwartzenegger has played one
Last Action Hero - Arnold only. Doubt it's this.
Maverick - Mel Gibson was IN it, and Schwartzenegger could be considered one.

Oh, derp. I guess those two guys cover the three DataEast games left. Turns out it's no help at all.

#3416 5 years ago

Clue #3 is up!

Last Action Subway... er...

Po Boy...

... HERO!

Would love too see Stern Playboy, slim chance only 1400 games

Stern Playboy is a highly underrated game. I'm sure they'll get to it someday.

#3438 5 years ago

It's officially official! Congrats, LAH owners!

golden eyes?

#3485 5 years ago
Quoted from DCFAN:

Slugs in all clues.

Lookin' like Slugfest - a game that's not even on my list!
"Worthless" in clue #2 makes more sense now. Those are slugs, not washers.

The cursor on that screenshot is pointing to the K, so... KISS?

Quoted from PinballManiac40:

That is my cursor that happened to be there when I took the screenshot. Uhh...try again.

#3597 5 years ago

I think it must be a Data East game. Because every time you turn one on it goes HMMMMMMMMMMM.

#3622 5 years ago
Quoted from Tuna_Delight:

Got a feeling that it's not Mustang.
Yet again.

Got a feeling we're about to see an end to All the begging and whining for Ghostbusters.

#3625 5 years ago
Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

Is the code for Ghostbusters even finished?

It's not really an issue. ColorDMD support for Metallica was released before Stern came out with the final game code. At this point, a revised Ghostbusters code would be tweaks to the rules, rather than new animations. And if there are new graphics, ColorDMD can always release an update.

#3628 5 years ago
Quoted from PinMonk:

Metallica code isn't final...is it?
If this really IS Ghostbusters, they will sell of metric ton of ColorDMDs.

Stern just stopped making Metallica, so I hope they have the code finalized by now.

That's the danger with Stern's "release it before it's complete" model - no one knows when it's really done.

NEW CLUE!!!

Maybe one of the 4 remaining Williams games? (Paul Williams, pictured below)

#3737 5 years ago

Alternative guesses:

1. Wheel of Fortune is rainbow-colored
2. TMNT is a game about reptiles (which are... similar to amphibians? It's a stretch)
3. Rainbows might appear after a Hurricane

This just in: Skøll is a brand of French beer. So the "beer before liquor" makes sense now.

Longshot: Maybe "Tuborg" could reference John Borg? I count seven Borg titles yet to be colorized.

I think I got it:

Cristal
Skol

Stern Indiana Jones!

#4022 5 years ago
Quoted from dirtbag66:

I love it when people come to the defense of their expensive, inanimate toys!

Agreed. Arguing is silly when we can all agree on what really matters: I WAS RIGHT ABOUT INDIANA JONES!

Congrats, IJ owners! Great clue, @dmod!

I can get behind Airborne - let's see Capcom come from behind to be the 1st fully -colorized manufacturer!

#4170 4 years ago
Quoted from resipsa:

I think its safe to say that out of the games remaining, Kiss would likely generate the most new orders. Anyone see anything else that we're still waiting on that could be more popular?

Quoted from PinballManiac40:

WWE is the other SPIKE game not yet colorized. I am sure not many sales will be generated from this title.

Quoted from Ericpinballfan:

Big Buck Hunter will sell tons!

As we've discussed before, ColorDMD's releases aren't determined by potential sales - they rely on whatever their independent colorizers decide to work on next.

So far, I like Beebl's guess best, but "Vegas" could also suggest High Roller Casino, Wheel of Fortune or the gambling-themed Maverick. At least we know who to thank for this one!

#4248 4 years ago
Quoted from epthegeek:

WOF is already done. Apparently people care so little they don't remember.

Derp.

If the skull is the clue, I'm leaning towards CSI (which has a skull on the playfield) or Harley Davidson (Doesn't the game take you through Vegas? And a skull with a bandana seems on brand).

#4258 4 years ago

Congrats, CSI owners!

#4264 4 years ago

Chocolate coating makes it go down easier...

Is there a basketball team called the Scorpions for NBA?
I was thinking Goldeneye, but then I remembered that Die Another Day is the one with the scorpions.
Nightmare on Elm Street?
Harley Davidson (biker gang?)

This one has me stumped so far. I hope there's a follow-up clue this time.

Rock you lile a Hurricane!

Quoted from toasterman04:

well, I have 12 DMD's and 9 have the color DMD in them. I am now officially in the waiting game for Gottlieb and Sega's. does anyone know if or when the Sega's and Gottliebs will get thrown on the to do list?

A few Segas have already been done - Baywatch, Godzilla and Apollo 13. But at the moment they're closer to finishing off the Capcom and Bally/Williams lists.

#4344 4 years ago
Quoted from toasterman04:

I would also consider colorizing gladiators or goldeneye. two amazing games never leaving my collection.

Quoted from Agent_Hero:

I'll happily colour Big Hurt.

Colorizations are done by fans and game owners - if you want a game colorized (especially a rare or "under-appreciated" game) you can contact ColorDMD and volunteer. But know that they probably haven't cracked the Gottlieb format yet.

Quoted from J85M:

topmoose any video preview yet? And whoever coloured this game BIG BIG thank you!

No preview yet, but they usually come a few days after the announcement. Brian Hawkins was the colorizers on this project - more info on ColorDMD's Facebook page.

#4422 4 years ago
Quoted from J85M:

C’mon colourdmd show us the preview already, getting impatient here, this is the one title I’ve been waiting for and will be my first colourdmd purchase.

Just to clarify, I'm not ColorDMD.

I'm just a guy who likes puzzles and enjoys guessing what the hints could mean. I don't have any insight into ColorDMD's production schedule and I'm not in charge of posting their clues or videos.

Quoted from volkdrive:

Hoping for Kiss! The 4 birds kind of look like it, not sure about the bat though

Quoted from monkeyboypaul:

The ‘Titans’ of Rock, clever!
KISS owners are in for a well deserved treat.

It's clearly Batman and a few other super heroes (I don't follow DC), but the masks look a bit like KISS makeup.
Also, thought it would be fun to stir up the KISS stans.

#4493 4 years ago
Quoted from o-din:

Which was your favorite?
I can't stand Stargate and never could. Hate to listen to it, hate to look at it, hate to play it.
I think Big Hurt was my favorite, and Barb Wire was pretty slick. Gladiators and Rescue 911 were both fun as well. Didn't put a lot of time on Wipeout, but it seemed OK.

Not DMD games, but my favorite Premiere pins are Victory and Arena.
Also, Genesis and Hollywood Heat are pretty great.
And Tee'd Off.
And Loaded Weapon.

So many under-rated games.

#4502 4 years ago

Quoted from jaytrem:

Thanks! No flood = no complaints from me. . I do miss playing pinball. Not willing to run those off a generator. I guess an em wouldn't be much risk of damage.

This is why I keep a pre-war game around. Signal Sr. runs on 6V batteries.

#4585 3 years ago
Quoted from jaytrem:

Did they make a ColorDMD for that one yet?

No, but I might trick it out with Pinstadiums and under-cab lighting.

#4591 3 years ago

Here's the preview video for Batman and, well...

...they just come right out and give us a preview of Star Trek 25. That doesn't mean it's the very next release, but personally I hope it's either Maverick or Kiss. Just so all the whining will finally stop.

Twister is a solid guess.

Quoted from JustEverett:

I wonder if they will have it available for Dale Jr? I was always hoping they would colorize it, but I ended up selling the game.

Does Dale Jr. Have different display graphics? I’ve played both and haven’t noticed. I think Stern Grand Prix has some different dots. Maybe we’ll get our first triple release!

#4764 3 years ago

Woo hoo! Congrats, NASCAR, Dale Jr. and Grand Prix owners!

Well, it's pretty high. And it rolls. And those are casinos in the background. Maybe like a... High Roller Casino?
Or maybe it rolls like a Rolling Stone?
Or maybe it's just a fun way to get Airborne?
In any case, it looks like quite a bit of... Heavy Metal.

#4811 3 years ago

How bout give the greatest rock band the stones some love and do it while they are alive and kickin yet!

Quoted from oldskool1969:

Aaaaarrrggggghhhhhh I just sold my BBH.
Murphys law
please do a video so I can see what I missed!

Just another quick reminder that I’m not a representative of ColorDMD - just a guy who likes to solve puzzles. I have no input in choosing what titles they release and when and I don’t make their videos.

If you want to volunteer to code a specific title, I recommend reaching out to Dmod .

#4835 3 years ago

The preview video has been posted!

#4837 3 years ago
Quoted from Gorgar666:

Would this work on BSD?

What?

The mounting brackets might be different, so you'd be better off specifying BSD when you order. And then you'd download and install the BSD software - BBH software wouldn't work on any other game.

#4839 3 years ago
Quoted from Gorgar666:

I meant, removing the red...

Here's a link to the ColorDMD website, where they say that you'd need to buy a new speaker panel:

#4861 2 years ago
Quoted from thundergod76:

Hmmm maybe it's both? Has color DMD ever done 2 titles at once?

They have released multiple titles at once, but they’ve always been related: Spider-Man/Spider-Man VE and NASCAR/Grand Prix/Dale Jr.

I suspect they like to spread out new releases to avoid a run on their stock of displays.

#4872 2 years ago

Back to the clue, I get the thinking that “Out of this world” could mean X Files or Stargate or it could be a reference to “Star Child” Paul Stanley.

But thinking outside the lines, if Stargate is possible, maybe Al’s Garage Band is as well? It also could be Heavy Metal, Gladiators or Waterworld.

But for the record, I hope it’s Kiss.

#4913 2 years ago

Congrats Stargate owners and, for that matter, all Gottlieb DMD owners! This is huge news!

Quoted from MK6PIN:

Congrats Wipeout owners!!!! Seems Gottlieb games are next for love....

I suspect they’re a lot easier to colorize. Many have simpler animations and fewer graphics in general.

#4941 2 years ago
Quoted from nerbflong:

As the guy who colored Stargate and wipeout, I'm going to disagree with the easier part
New methods and tools were developed to tackle some of the problems. Wipeout took me forever as I had to hand color all the video frames in that one.
