Remake Syndrome.....Focusing on the Value of your game, and the Fear, your Pinball will lose Value.
Pinside Syndrome.....Sickness from visiting Pinside, and not understanding we all love Pinball, but have different Opinions.
Doctors Prescription..... Drink, Play Pinball, Enjoy Music and Friends, Have Sex.
Quoted from OLDPINGUY:Doctors Prescription..... Drink, Play Pinball, Enjoy Music and Friends, Have Sex.
That Dr's a thin skinned member. He left out a very important prescription.
Quoted from oldskool1969:One of my favourite shows and the pinball machine I will be buried in!
Love me Gilligan
Skipper
Return to GI would be AWESOME in a pin.
You probably don't care, but are you aware that Gilligans Island has some of the worst unbalanced scoring in all of pinball?
Nice looking pin...terrible gameplay,
The little green man in his head is to blame. Oh and CGC, and Pinside, and all the assholes,and..................
Reminds me of a three day bender I read about.
Quoted from schudel5:As a collector of RPN HP calculators as well, I had to dump that hobby when they remade the HP15C a few years ago. What a piece of crap it was. Now pinballs...
I collect HP 12Cs too. I have 5 made in the USA. One of them has a display that is leaking LCD around the edges. Is there a way to change out the display. Bye the way, reverse polish notation is the best. I can't use a regular calculator.
Thanks
Quoted from ASOA:Not all remakes are created equal.
There is only 1 Willy Wonka.
What the hell is a Johnny Depp?
Can you do the same special effects with Barnabas Collins?
Quoted from SUPERBEE:O boy, the French guy is going to be pissed when he sees this thread.
But his remake is gonna love it!

Oh I care, My most beloved game!
Sorry you feel that way
I don’t really know much about the scoring in gilligans as I’ve only played a few times and I tend to care about objectives over scoring but to me it always seemed like a lot of fun.
Quoted from oldskool1969:Oh I care, My most beloved game!
Sorry you feel that way
It's not feel...it's just fact...
collect the rope for 300k, coconuts, 250k, etc. , mix the seltzer....feed KONA for 50 million!
(All your high scores are from getting Kona, nothing else even comes close)
I didn't like the movie and haven't spent time on the pin. But loved the show. One of the greats.JMO
Nothing is original anymore. Just a regurgitation of everything. Only thing better is you can go to a store and buy weed you don't have to spend 30 minutes cleaning.
Quoted from Buzz:Nothing is original anymore. Just a regurgitation of everything.
And what really sucks is all the originals get buried buy all this remake crap.
I get the remakes in pinball and parts for them. But movies, music,cars,political movements, and probably some other stuff I don't. They were special for a reason let them be that way. Stop changing or trying to steal the magic.
To be fair, the remake of The Mechanic was fairly entertaining, but just like with the rest of them, now the original never gets shown anymore. And that's what bugs me the most. If they are going to show The Longest Yard over and over again, they should fit the original in there once in a while.
I can't wait for original ideas to become in again. I wonder if people think In/Out is considered a vintage burger place?
Quoted from Azmodeus:I would like to see an updated cannonball run.
That was already an updated Gumball Rally.
Will these remakes ever stop!
Quoted from IdahoRealtor:Speaking of remakes, I was bs'ing with a guy at league last night and we both agreed someone should remake their Taxi into Taxi Driver.
Jody Foster on a pinball machine? I would love to see that. Oh wait....
Quoted from o-din:That was already an updated Gumball Rally.
Will these remakes ever stop!
Speed Zone with the water skipping Countach is my favorite of those remakes.
Remake ghost busters!!?!?! Surely not...never!!! Over my dead bod... (please send donations to bally Williams funeral fund at ghostbustersremade&[email protected]
I could honestly care less about remakes. Remake all you want...movies, games, toys. You don't have to watch or buy them & the original is still there if you prefer.
Also...there is original content everywhere!!! It's not always great... but sometimes it is!
Im with Astropin here, if you dont like it dont buy it.
I am not paying 12,000.00 for a 20 year old pin when I can buy a remake for 8,000.00
