Just look at The sound on a top machine. Twilight zone.

I love it.

I remember hearing someone say how the sound could be better on Primus.

I thought no; sound was critical to les clay pool I had heard.

Which doesn't suprise me.

Quoted from Isochronic_Frost:

Just look at a game that is totally, CRIMINALLY underrated. Data East’s Torpedo Alley had one of the greatest integrations of lights and sounds! It was peak 80’s cheese in ‘89. I searched for years to get that game because of the amazing integration of lights, sound and music for that game. It’s relatively unknown but I heard a beautiful example was available to play at Pintastic.
Here’s a good video of Keith Elwin absolutely blowing one up.
Even watching the GOAT play this game there’s still so much to do and with LEDs the game shines like a modern pin!

I have a friend who has a torpedo alley in his line up.

Primus suffers from the Whoa Nellie design. Is it really that hard to just take a decent old EM and reuse it? I’m pretty sure most those design rights are long gone so that shouldn’t be an issue.
