Wonder what someone will pay for a nice looking pin that is basically just s piece of art with lights? Lots of deep pockets in this hobby so im guessing a fair amount just so they can have the bragging rights and cool factor in their collection ...just like bbb that most never play unfortunately. Dont get me wrong id love to have these pins, but im in this hobby to play these toys like they were meant for not just to show off and look at. I have some nice high end expensive restored pins but i play the shit out of them and they are doing just fine.

#21342 7 years ago
Quoted from Rarehero:

Thing is with BBB - you CAN play it! I've played it a ton...everything works great, and it's a lot of fun. It's pretty and functional. It was a fully realized game & piece of commercial equipment. Same with Kingpin, King Kong, and most of the other rare pins. Sure you can argue any of these games could have used a few more months of programming - but as they stand, they play fine and all their features work. If MG just flips but generally doesn't work as intended ...I'm not sure what the desire to own one would be. If you really must have "Jpop Art"...CV, TOM, and TOTAN are available. They look AND play great!

I agree ive played bbb and like it. I dont think u understood what i was trying to say. What i was trying to say is that most people that buy bbb rarely ever play them bc they are afraid of lowering its value...thats the people that will probably pay big money to own a mg because they dont care about playing as much as the collectibility factor, bragging rights and the cool factor. I have some valuable restored pins that i play alot bc that's what they are for......

#21350 7 years ago
Quoted from flynnibus:

Not from my experience. Do they all take them to shows? No, but I've never seen one walled off by velvet ropes or left off for fear of playing them.
Half the people on pinside probably don't put up enough games on the counter for such 'fears'. Meanwhile, my games got over 1000-1300 plays each at Magfest in a single weekend as I put them out for others to enjoy.. because others did it before me so I could enjoy games I didn't own.

What are u talking about velvet ropes and shit? Most not all bbb are pretty low play from what ive seen and ones that have seen play sell for less because of a few imperfections. Look at the one in tenn few months ago that wasn't perfect . It took a bit to sell at a great price with lots of extras . For this reason many owners of them tend not to play them as much as other pins in their collection from what ive seen. If i had one it wld get same play as rest my collection bc thats whst they are meant for. However lots people just collect nice pins and rarely play them which sucks but they can do as they want..

Quoted from Mr68:

I've had children standing on a stool play my BBB.
» YouTube video

Did i say every bbb was a collector piece that never gets played ..... ahh no i didnt.

#21352 7 years ago

Ive met so many collectors that hardly ever play their pins its crazy and real shame but its their stuff so they can do as they want.
Ill be there to buy them once they are done looking at them for a few years lol.

#21354 7 years ago
Quoted from Coyote:

This coming from a guy that didn't know the inner inlane in TZ temporarily lit the Slot Machine.

Hey i think i play alot ...just may not know all the rules lol. I usually put on a few hundred plays a month on each pin .... thats between 1-2k games a month just from me. Not to shabby imo

Hey by the way i knew it lit the slot , but thought something was wrong with my light bc it flickered a awful lot and it seemed off to me.

#21357 7 years ago

Im ready to see some real gameplay of this beautiful magic girl pin.....or at least some glass off action.

#21364 7 years ago
Quoted from Mike_J:

Even if I were retired I couldn't play that much.

Most my games are set up very difficult so they are usually between 3 min average game time last i checked. Dont take long to put 10 games a day on each one lol.

#21367 7 years ago
Quoted from vicjw66:

What's your average game time, 2 minutes?

Quoted from bigd1979:

Most my games are set up very difficult so they are usually between 3 min average game time last i checked. Dont take long to put 10 games a day on each one lol.

Lol. They are set up very difficult. I checked ball times on all and met had longest at around 4 min but most were right around 3 min.

#21368 7 years ago
Quoted from vicjw66:

Just saw your response.

Lol. Im not a fan of long games so its open outlanes, 7-7.5 slope , hard settings and very few extra balls. Its best way to set up the b/w pins imo that way they dont get old to quickly.

#21370 7 years ago
Quoted from vicjw66:

Works for games with shallow code. But making games like TWD harder than factory would make getting to the wizard modes damn near impossible.

Agreed thats y i said bally /,Williams pins... my walking premium is a butt kicker and actually needs set up a little eaiser lol. Met is pretty deep but not as evil as walking dead so it stays factory settings .

Quoted from jrivelli:

Hilton is a piece of work. I had to file a local police report couple summers ago when the MG was at the NW show because of him and his threats. He was spreading that somehow we(pinballbulbs) "Stole" the prototype from the show and were keeping it I guess. Then he started to spread my personal home address and antagonizing people to come roam around to my house and check it out. I just had a newborn at the time and my wife and her were home alone all the time, so it was super upsetting and inappropriate.
Not surprised by his behavior above at all. He devalues this website heavily.
Ps - I don't know Kim ,but he can come play pinball anytime at my house

O my.....

Lite the kings chamber again and put it in the center hole and see if the magnet catches it instead of shooting out the top....

#23024 7 years ago

What a total waste at this point.... im really glad people got something but anyone who buys these for big money is just throwing money in the toilet imo. Game plays but not much at all there and its just a shame as i think it cld of been pretty awesome.

Quoted from ShinyNick:

in that video it looks like the spinning disc turns counter-clockwise and saves the ball most of the time... mine turns clockwise and generally does not save the ball from the outlane - I'll try to reverse the polarity of the motor

If its on a motor board ..just turn connector around ...
