Item description
I have a player's condition Gottlieb Waterworld for sale from 1995. It's in good functioning order and plays well. I have had this machine for about ten months now and have had few issues with it.
The pros: Cabinet is in decent shape. Under side of playfield is clean. Backbox boards are clean, no burnt connectors. Game flips well. Mechanics fully functional (drop targets, harpoon kicker, Deez/Atoll rotation, orbit diverter, dive hole scoop kicker, etc). Full LEDs for the GI and backbox, including the flashers (incandescent flashers burn out insanely fast on this game).
The cons: Wear at the flippers (based on other Waterworld machines I have seen on Pinside, this seem to be common). Dive hole has the usual wear (Cliffy makes a protector for this). Two standup targets have missing domes (Marco sells replacement Smart Switch targets), but the targets still register/function fine. There's also an issue with the sound board that I haven't bothered to troubleshoot--the game only plays half the music. Could be a simple fix, I'm not sure--It's been like this since I bought the machine and I just played it as-is.
Game will include a coin box along with manual, replacement flipper fubbers (new), and some other random spare parts.
Price is $1000, firm. Also have a Jungle Lord (1981) for sale. Willing to potentially do a two-for-one trade on another game.
Here's a link to some gameplay from a live stream I did on it a couple of months ago. The LEDs were different at the time of recording and I have since swapped the bulbs out for warm LEDs: https://www.twitch.tv/videos/120786014
Overall I have been really happy with this game. The ruleset is very interesting and it's a game that requires a good amount of skill to make the most of. Only looking to sell due to acquiring a few modern Sterns recently and I need to downsize.
I am located in Fairfax, VA. Buyer will need to come and pick this up. I am unable to transport, but can help you get it out of my apartment.
