I just ordered the plastic numbered disc and the apron decal for my World Fair from Pinball Rescue. Glad to see that the decal looks so good. My apron was just faded almost to white; no rust. That's a fun game. I just got mine mostly working.

Quoted from o-din:
When you look at what they are coming out with now it just helps confirm what you are saying.

This! If it takes serious computer code to make a pinball machine fun or even playable, this tells me the design of the machine is flawed from the gitgo. Can you say fan layout?

Space Mission/Odyssey was probably the last machine I compulsively fed quarters to as a youth. Now I own it.

Quoted from EMsInKC:
I thought when the Retro King of Diamonds came out that would be something cool, but then I played it. It was a great idea and they executed it as well as they could, but even though it might look like one, it's not an EM. It doesn't play like one. It doesn't feel like one. It doesn't sound like one.

I agree. It just doesn't feel right. Have you tried the new Whoa Nellie? It plays pretty EM-y, but with callouts. It's a blast. But 6 grand? Really?

Yo-Din, my recent World Fair pickup is really growing on me. Might even be up there with Teacher's Pet. The WF did require a hitap to really kick it up a notch, but man it's pretty fun. Just the right combo of skill and luck that sets EMs apart from the rest.
