So, I am Officially 13 months into my Jack*Bot ownership and simply put, I fucking LOVE this game! It's been one of my grails since I really started following pinball in 2018, and every day I grow more in love with it. In my small collection including a Getaway, T2, and SFII, this is still by far my favorite. Many of my non-Pinball Family and Friends really enjoy the overall simplicity and game play as its relatively easy to understand. This game is 100% bolted down, and will NEVER be leaving my Home!

The only real major issues I had was the Shooter rod / ramp vortex issues which I've since resolved and threaded on the Pinbot Vortex Ramp threads - Plus had an issue of constantly blowing F107 which ended up being related to the Pop Bumper GI, and was resolved once I rebuilt all three Pops.

Many upgrades I've done which makes a huge difference include: ColorDMD, Color Matched NG Comets for the inserts + all Cool White for the GI, Titans, Matrix Lighting for Both eyes and Game Saucer (The eyes were just way too dark), Speaker Lights, Rebuilt Flippers and Coils, Rebuilt Pop Bumpers with Comet LED Red Rings with clear caps (The Pics don't do justice), Mirrored Sideblades, and a playfield protector... However, one of the best improvements that really sets this game apart, is a PinSound board with a Klipsch 12" Powered Sub. I was super bummed to find out there weren't any custom soundtracks... So I made my own including many gambling songs and others that really fit the games motif and bill... Some of which include: Daft Punk, The Gambler, Ace of Spades, Overtones Gambling Man, Notorious BIG, Guns and Roses, and Jamiroquai. All the music orchestrations are completed, and now I just need to work on upgrading the call outs and sound effects. I've tried uploading my custom soundtrack to PinSounds website, but for some reason it wont upload... I've since reached out to Nicholas on it but never heard back. I may plan on doing a quick YouTube video running through all the upgraded Music, but if anyone is running a PinSound on their J*B and is interested in my custom sound bill, let me know and I'll gladly share it.

For any Pinsound users, I Just uploaded the first custom Jack*Bot Pinsound mix. It’s got some really great tracks that fit the game very well. Will eventually update the callouts and sound effect, but for now, it makes the overall game play soooooooo much better!

You can download it directly from Pinsound website under Jack*Bot. Or Here’s the download link:

Quoted from HoakyPoaky:

The jazzy saxophone soundtrack to Jack*Bot is one of my favorite things about the game. It's unique to all the other pinball soundtracks out there. Personally I'd never swap that music out.

I agree and that was one of my main attractions to the game as well. The beauty of Pinsound is that you can swap back to the original mix with the simple push of a button.

Quoted from Dennis_B:

I actually like the sound in the game, but please someone with some pinsound skills make this happen.

Already done… see post #1016. I added multiple Daft punk tracks (including robot rock, around the world) but there are also additional artists and tracks as well. I plan on tweaking it again sometime in the future, but for now, the file works great. A Powered subwoofer is a must!
