Data East Simpsons

That launcher looks like its from Jurassic Park.. and so do the speaker covers (sorta).. but that Backglass does not. I'm stumped.

That looks like the right Backglass, but look at the 2nd pic. That launcher is a gun/phaser, not the typical plunger you'd see on the Simpsons.

Looks like DE Simpsons to me also.

DE Simpsons with a JP launcher?

There is more than one pin there. Look at the first pic and see where the Simpsons pin is in relation to the top floor balcony. Then look at the second pic. That game is much further into the room than the Simpsons, it's past the poster on the wall. There may be 3 pins there, but you can't tell from the pictures. Looks like maybe a jukebox in the corner as well.

I agree with Dewey, and looks like there's also an arcade cab next to the pin in the second pic.

Edit: And a couple of guitar cases in the next room... I wanna see this place!

CSI Edit: Pachinko machine next to the pin in the first pic?

you're missing the point, there are 2 different machines, a simpsons for sure and a gun shooter one. There is also a pachinko and maybe a standup vid, yellow trackball control? 1st pic shows simpsons and pachinko. if you stand in front of the porche pic the games are on your left.
second pic if you are in front of the porche pic the games are on your right.

im thinking the gun is a TS but maybe im wrong the yellow hue makes me think of it.
oops its a DE

The one with a gun is not a Shadow, it has a DE apron...

Gotta be a JP, it's got the Data East logo on the apron.

D'oh, Tomdotcom beat me to it!

_{Post edited by Dewey68 : Too slow!}

The one with the "gun" is Fish Tales, I think.

EDIT: OK nevermind if it's Data East, cannot be FT.

Nope, fail...read above

It looks like the same pin in both pictures. Look at the Porshe poster on the wall, the two cables hanging down in the middle of the room, the black railing on the pin, and the brickwork on the wall where the fire place is. It's the same room from different angles. The only think I can defiantly make out is that there is a DE logo on the apron in the second picture

JP and Simpsons (DE)

nvm my bad on the ts reference. oops now i know more on the de east apron looks

lol, Jurassic Park and Predator side by side...oh, the awesome synchronicity.....

That would fit both. Hilarious.

Get down there quick, I did the same thing with and IJ and was beaten by hours as he called local dealer and sold for half its value. People selling houses often cant or dont want to take bulky items.

The one with the grip launcher is a Jurassic Park. You can see a hint of the pterodactyl on the right side of the pin and the darker cab color - the other candidates are light colored or don't match in apron or other details

For +1000 pts, whats the arcade game next to it?

In the other pic its a DE Simpsons and what looks like a more recent pachinko behind it

Okay, simple answer. It is both a Simpson pin and Jurassic Park. They are both in the same place, but pictures were taken at different times. One pin was switched for the other. When? who knows. These pictures could have been taken months / years apart.

Don't know what the video game in the second picture is, but in the first picture, upper right corner beyond that half open door, doesn't it look like there's another video game there?

Wrong....Simple answer is you need glasses or work on your depth perception

Two pins (at the least...enough room for 3)....Proof is in the picture

It could also be LAH. LAH had that gun and smart missle first, and the same plastic above the shooter lane.

After looking at the area near the apron closer, I believe it is a LW3....Both LAH and JP have different colors on the PF between the flippers. LW3 has the yellow at the bottom and the gun handle.

So, LW3.....EDIT: Or not.....Gun handle looks to be different with the rounded smart bomb area, so I'm back to JP....LAH has too much blue in that area and standard white flipper bats...JP had yellow.

can't be JP or LAH, too much blue and yellow at bottom below the flippers. Definitely a data east (can see logo, and yellow instruction cards, black lockdown bar). LW3 had two versions of the gun, the first chrome one, then black. Granted, I believe even the black one had same shape (which means material underneath, which that one doesn't have), unless for some reason he swapped it out with a different gun?

What is this, Ghost Hunters?

I'm digging that Porsche poster.

Is that a hustler magazine sitting on the L shaped counter near the fireplace?

Hope this is not a fellow pinsiders house we are talking about, but that book or mag definately looks sus

Wrong, that's just proof that you have bad depth perception, You just drew arbitrary lines on two different pictures shown at different angles. The first picture doesn't really show how far back the pin is.
Plus, you used parallel lines, one on top of the other from the left side of the Simpsons pin in the first picture, and parallel side by side lines from BOTH sides of the JP in the second. Not really a good comparison.

As I said, they "Could have been taken months / years apart". Also, do you definitely know that they were taken at the same date? Or Who took the pictures? BTW where is this listing?

Wow....If you can't see the obvious, then no point in arguing....And for the record my depth perception is very good...It's how I make my living

Of course I used parallel lines...that's the point. You can plainly see the simpson's pin in on the edge of the balcony overhang. And you can see how close it is to the wall by the pachinko machine wedged in between it and the wall. The JP is clearly to the other side of the poster in front of the fireplace and nowhere near the french doors.

Look Who's Talking. And My Eyesight is just fine. Don't Dole out insults if you can't take them in return. All you needed to do was say you disagree. My point is just as valid (or apparently MORE) than yours. You can't tell if the Simpsons pin is under the balcony from that picture. By the way, if the simpsons pin was Where you say it was, JP would be blocking it from the view in the first picture.
Yet you can clearly see the side of The Simpsons.

B/S on the lines. It's not obvious, and the lines in both pictures have no true relation if their from different start points (parallel or not).

Not trying to insult....Sorry if it came across that way.

Look at it from purely physical dimensions. The double french doors are 72" wide (standard width for a double 3 pane door). And another 48" for the distance between the doors and fireplace occupied by the poster on the wall and the chair in front. The parallel lines are meaningful because the JP is oriented perpendicular to the flooring boards, and so the parallel lines DO show the approximate location of that machine on the far wall. It's also obvious that the JP is in line with the couch. Probably another 2' into the fireplace.

Add all that up, and the JP in the second photo is ~12 feet away from the wall where the big screen TV is under the balcony.

Is it your contention that the first picture showing the simpsons is 12' away from the wall with the TV on it, and that the shadow cast into the corner of that wall from the backbox of the simpson's is 12' away?

Given that the 1st picture was taken from the back of the room behind the couch towards the TV wall (because you can see the pendant light fixtures), if it were 12' away, would you not be able to see the corner of the back wall instead of it being obscured by the Simpon's Pin?

This is one nerdy debate. I love it! I'm not being sarcastic either, I'm actually loving every minute of it. At this point blondetall must seek out this house and get us some good pics. Robin should change the site name to pindebate.com. lol. Oh, and no offense intended. I'm a huge nerd also.

Im with Robertmee on this one! Definitely different pins in different positions of the same room!

Agree here. robertmee has my vote for depth perception and basic analysis. The pin in the first pic is way further back in the room than the pin in the overhead 2nd pic. EVen with the little that's visible, this is pretty obvious.

Now, there's my kind of woman! Why are all the good ones always taken

Its clearly a wolverine x-men LE.

Yes, Blondy...get your butt over there and knock on the door. Charm them!... You never know!
