My father and I went together and bought our first pin in late May - Goldeneye! There is something really special about this one. I practically live at the local arcades, and I can get bored with a pin more easily than I would expect, but Goldeneye is the gift that keeps on giving. Never a dull moment, some of the best callouts in all of pinball, and the Sattelite shot will never get old. Love it to death.

Fixing it (since we play the hell out of it, we run i to issues probably more often than most) is fun too! Anyone seen issues with coil 17 not firing to load a ball into the trough VUK even though it works fine when running the coil test? Seems to do this after playing hours on end and then in the morning after turning it off all night, it works fine. Almost seems like a code issue somehow? Thanks for any input.

Thank you! I need to hop back over to the game room at Dad's house to see which code version we're on, and look into the overheat in coil 17 and possibly a new sleeve. I'll let you know know how it goes.

Lithium code is up to date and at this point it's actually looking like the opto (switch 15) is worn out and needs replacing. I'm still going to swap out the coil sleeve though. Just ordered some. I'll let you know how it all goes.
