Poor Whirlwind. It's neat to see pinball getting some love but too bad they did what they did to that game

Restored cab! Custom translite!

Whoah. That makes my head spin. I mean... What.

#4 9 years ago

that cab has got to be just as rare as that Michael Jackson pinball..... curious when it will be on eBay for 100,000 dollars??

Why buy a sys 11 game and make it look like a EM? Why not just buy an EM instead? Did they like the blinking lights and alpha numeric display more maybe?

I'd guess they avoided copyright problems by making those changes. The long shot was on for a very long time while the tight pf shot, where WE could tell it was a Whirlwind was on for a very short time.

Yup. Same reason every pinball machine in a movie or show sounds like an EM. That way they dont have to worry about copyrights, royalties, etc. It is usually the same generic EM sound that is also a phone ringtone, just played over and over.


(NSFW language of course)

Hmm, now I'm sorry my wife doesn't like to play pinball.

Yes but now it stands for Ghetto Apparel.

What is that ad for, and why should I buy it?
And get a room, dammit!

What is that ad for

Yeah you know I just watched it again and doesn't really seem to advertise anything . If I didn't know what gap was I would have guessed that it was an ad for condoms .
It's weird too because it seems as though the entire staff of this restaurant is watching this girl play pinball and are all amazed , Meanwhile her boyfriend? is sitting in the booth and seems to be embarrassed .

The guy at the end looks like he's trying really hard to get her to give up her gap.

#14 9 years ago

Oh come on guys, he's liking the look of her ass in those tight jeans, the way it wiggles when she plays. It's an ad for jeans. In a round about way of course.
