Great hire!

Fantastic news! You two absolutely make this thing we all love so much more exciting and enjoyable. This just strengthens my confidence in how dedicated you are to your customers. Pinball has been uneventful as of late so this has me excited.

Good team!

Hope he still has time to provide game reviews too.

That other guy sucks!

Frick and Frack for the win!

Congratulations, working with your wife and best friend sounds like you are making good life decisions!

Congrats!

FAST Pinball

Way to go GREG. I like my steaks the same way I like my videos… Bone-in.

I have a serious inquiry. Golden Tee is great but the company also makes Silver Strike Bowling, which I like more. I’d be interested in a combined machine that didn’t cost $5k. Maybe $3.5k for both. Then I could play whatever. I could care less about being connected online as those are more expensive with little value. Maybe you can create such a product. I shall see. Golden-tee is great fun. Silver strike bowling is fun. Give me 2 for 1 and I will buy, buy, buy one unit. And I bet you’d get plenty of follow up orders.

They did just release something similar with the Arcade Collection that has Silver Strike, Power Putt Golf, and Lawn Toss all in 1 unit.

I just want to know when golden tee pga will be available for the home

I have concerns power putt is at the same standards as Golden-tee. I don’t want old graphics or poor quality renderings, requiring top level sharpness on the screen. Maybe there is a golden-tee with a generic bowling. That might be acceptable combo. But I really want a bowling game and can’t see buying one knowing golden-tee is out there.

Thinking further about this … it would be totally cool to have digital baseball too. Screen shows common baseball arena and pitches come out and batter swings to get on base. I might prefer digital baseball to the actual pitch and bat games like slugfest. Digitally baseball with haptic feedback would be ideal. So maybe the base price goes to $5k for all three. That would be cool to have golf, bowling and baseball in one unit. Throw in a nice basketball game and you’ve hit the quad-fecta. Nobody could resist it.

I haven't played Power Putt but I think it's more like mini-golf or something? If I were to buy one of these things I'd go with the arcade collection for some variety at least. The target toss games would be good drinking games I bet.

This reminded me of my high school days and playing quarters. It was a mandatory event to having a successful party. We’d fill a shot glass with whisky, scotch or bourbon and someone would dig out a quarter. Everybody would gather around kitchen table with their red solo cups of beer from a keg. There’d be a quick reminder of the rules and start.

If you missed your bounce, you lose and have to drink. Bounce the quarter into shot glass you win and pick someone to chug the alcohol and catch the quarter between their teeth. Glass is refilled and loser becomes the next bouncer and continues around in clockwise fashion. So each turn someone loses and drinks and you stay in game as long as you can. But as people drop out, your chances of being picked to drink increases. Also don’t be an asshat or people will gang up on you. A good game might have 60-90 shots or cups of beers taken in one hour.

Now for the critical details. If you lose or someone wins and picks you, you have to drink. If you didn’t want to drink the shot, you could alternatively chug a cup of beer, then dig quarter out of still-filled glass with your grubby fingers and become the bouncer. The most important detail is no pointing with your finger rule. When someone needs to drink the winner must point at them with their bent elbow. If anyone standing around points, they’d get called out and have to drink including the winner if he forgets. What is funny was when someone was drinking, everyone chants ’” drink MF, drink”. I don’t know if that part was a regional rule or not, but it was in every game I played throughout the great state of FL. The drunker you got the more you enjoyed yelling drink MF, drink.

Thanks, I enjoyed the review. My fave part are the outtakes, which mean little but are generally funny. Learned a great new technique to avoid offending others too. Simply preface comments by yelling “earmuffs”. Haha that was great!

Holy gawd that R2D2 topper... And it isn't even covered in gold! If the pinball market is softening the topper market sure isn't

EDIT: FYI, I logged in with Google for those that might be having issues

whats the access code?

Facebook login worked for me, no issues.

Phone worked for me. It asks if I want to use google, chrome or safari. So it must be the browser you were using. If it is your first visit to vault then you continue to register account.

This vault idea is pretty cool.

Anybody check out the vault inside the vault for valuables? what I’m talking about is that one item is IMvault. So a vault inside a vault. Wonder if there is any booty inside it for the fortunate buyer

don't understand why it's behind a log in?

I would have snagged the STh pro with uv lights and topper if I hadn’t bought an exact copy three months ago for the same price as offered here with shipping. I prefer the pro over prem for value and don’t miss the projections on screen, but will admit it’s cool.

The game for me is about playing through the 5 demogorgon levels. Can usually get 5-10 balls into demogorgon during a game and that’s enough to win. I also try to lock and start ramp multiball twice per game. I admit I ignore everything else.

What’s funny is I don’t care much for theme and seasons 1-4 mean nothing. But series generally follows a Stephen King book I read awhile back and liked. There are alternate STh translites available and one good source has one per each season. I bought 3 so can swap them out.

Now when are the SE+ With the toppers going to start shipping. They are really promoting something they aren’t producing yet.

Listened to podcast and liked the CCr caller callouts. Great stuff.

Great add, fair price! I’d be all over it if I knew the next Stern release wasn’t Bond.

Is Andy in TS4? Isn't it all about Bonnie?

Ru-roh Shaggy?! Shhh!

Yup

Bonnie
Is the next 100 sets

I'm all for mods and if this makes 100 owners happy that's great. But the IP here is TS4. I wouldn't put a moving Yoda mod in my Mando just because it is Star Wars. To each their own.
