Quoted from jalpert:Anyone know what it costs in an arcade to do pro mode for 3 sites, or the weekly target trek mode?
On my game it costs $2 each site or $5.25 if you purchase all 3 at the start.

If you are new and need a little help, which is a possibility, reach out and we will get it figured out.
1.) Sign into your coinup account
2.) https://www.coinup.com/tournaments/editgamemachines/BBHD/1002071
3.) I'm assuming most of you only have one game, so tick the tick mark and hit submit game machines to add your game
Two weeks this time. My schedule makes it impossible for me to create a new tournament next week.
This is a 3 trek (15 sites and 3 bonus rounds) random from all skill levels. It's a high score tournament, play as many times as you want and the highest score takes it.
A few caveats:
Everything is free from the coinop account to the play. There is no cost to this. Once you add this tournament to your game you cannot remove it until the tournament is over. This tournament lasts for one week so it will be on your machine for one week. Also, I set the costing to it's lowest level, but it still wants $0.25 to play. Maybe run a $100 bill through the machine. There are no actual charges to play, just a quark that it needs some coins in to start. Or you can just hit the coin actuator on the coin mech a few times, however you want to do it.
If anyone is looking to get a new Buck Hunter Reloaded Mini (new design, rgb led trim, cup holders, etc) before Thanksgiving let me know. The latest batch will be in the warehouse and ready to ship starting Monday 11/15/2021.
Starting to think about adding a BBH or other shooter to our game room.
Where is the sweet spot of age/price for these?
Does a Big Buck World in the 27" cabinet use an LCD or CRT?
What's the going price for a mini/42" HD? Not sure I'm willing to step up to the ~$7k for a reloaded.
thanks!

Orginal Big Buck Hunter Pro was released in 2005 with a 27" crt monitor and a microtel computer. All of the games in that cabinet will be a 27" crt monitor. Starting with the Safari (Open Season and World also) there is a 42" LCD Deluxe model also.
Pro should be in the $1000 range, then add around $300 for each newer model
HD was introduced around 2015 with the 42" lcd screen and a panorama version where you could add your own monitor. These should be in the $4000 range. They can also be upgraded (for free) the the Reloaded software.
The newest version is Reloaded and there is a new Mini cabinet with the internal gun storage, led t-molding, different cabinet art, etc. These around $6395

Hi. If I understand correctly, in order to get other games for this (i.e. Terminator), you need to purchase the software, or better yet get an on-line subscription for $40/month, which gets you access to all on-line content. Is there a list anywhere of what that other on-line content would be?

This is very helpful. Thanks! I see that they also did a 32" version for HD which could be perfect for the area I have. I don't see any (used) for sale, but I'll keep an eye out.

Big Buck Hunter_ Reloaded Sales Team Presentation.pdfQuoted from Pizza-Bob:I bought a BBH RELOADED and was wondering what is the best monitor to buy ? Thanks
I was told any TV with a 120hz refresh rate
This is what Zach used in his unboxing video
3E75E930-8A50-4BC9-8467-2793B5604042 (resized).jpeg
Refresh rate is nice for visuals but you need a tv with a good response time/input lag (lower is better)
This is raw thrills approved monitors list. I think they have been updating it. Read the links too. You can also buy a good tv not on this list that has a 15ms or so refresh rate. If it has “game mode” you will likely be fine if you use that.
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0Amekm0qkosiDdDVkUWJZSldFbHg4T1ZwOEc1OTVLOUE#gid=6

Looking for some help. I want a big buck reloaded but I’m confused on some of the necessary dimensions. I only have 80” on vertical clearance where I want to put it and the door it has to go through is only 30” wide. Ha this seems terrible but I have been able to get all pins through it.
The panorama shows 31.5” wide but also that the box is 31.5” which is confusing me since I assume there must be some buffer. Anyone know the exact width of the main console section? Also what is the minimum height requirement for the whole unit. If I don’t use the terminator topper, would I be able to fit within the 80” of space? Looks like there are still poles that may get in the way.
I don’t like how the 42” mini costs more but it fits the dimensions better. I am assuming that I wouldn’t need the highest topper and I can easily remove the monitor and first topper on order to get through the doorway. Can anyone confirm?
Haha sorry for the specific scenario questions but I am trying to avoid taking delivery and realizing it won’t work.
Quoted from KingPinGames:24.75" wide
79.5" tall to the top of the monitor supports.
We have them in stock and ready to ship
[email protected]
Thanks so much! That’s for the panorama?
Quoted from TheBeefSupreme:Thanks so much! That’s for the panorama?
Correct. Just measured the one in my showroom. The TV uprights are not installed in the box, so it technically is about 30 inches shorter on the box
My ceiling is a little taller than yours, I just had to tilt the game back to get the marquee onto the bars.
The marquee is required.

Some BS coming out of Raw Thrills...
They released the Pro mode, I was curious so I activated it. Quickly realized that their cash payouts are pennies on the dollar and it wasn't for me. The majority of the money they take in appears to be funding their annual world championships. Which is fine, just not for me, whatever.
During the month, I had my nephew over, he wanted to shoot some robots, cool.
Get my coinup bill and was billed $12 in reloaded content. Sent the mistake off to Raw Thrills, it wasn't a mistake. Seems like when you sign up for Pro mode you also give up the included reloaded content?
So, even though you pay $40/mo, if you activate the modes that pay them per play, you have to pay them per play to play the modes you had already payed them for.
Outrageous behavior.

This is outrageous. I had unlocked most of the animals prior to them offering this $40/month deal. I'm about ready to go back to having my game fully offline.
Added over 2 years ago:Edit: Just to be clear after checking with RawThrills this was just an error in how their bills were generated and it will be corrected in the future. Reloaded content and all the content that was included before is still included with the $40/month charge. Only the Pro content costs extra.
I had someone reach out that got a different answer than what I got. So I reached out to Raw Thrills again.
According to who I was talking to, the mistake came when she was referring to her billing system where everything looked correct, but the incorrect charges were due to the email having the numbers in incorrect boxes. I am not being charged for playing reloaded games, even though my invoice said so.
Not giving me the benefit of the doubt and going right to the "terms and conditions I agreed to" was a bit icky, but it's sorted now.
Pro mode is great if you are going to qualify for the world championships and participate in their yearly tourney, but for the other 99.7% of us it's useless.

I also reached out to RawThrills about this. On my bill for last month it also looked like I had been charged for Reloaded content. I was confused by this because on the game it still says this content is free and was never told it would cost extra. As it turned out (at least in my case) this was just an error in how it was labeled on my bill. I guess it should have been labeled as "tournament play" and "pro play". Basically I played $5.25 per Adventure as I thought but the "pro play" was erroneously labeled as "reloaded play" but the charges were correct. Overall I'll be keeping the Pro option on mine. I like playing in the pro tournaments even though it costs a little extra. Everything else is the same as it would be with the usual $40 per month.

This is how i understand it too.
Reloaded Online is $39.99 a month.
If you select "Pro Play" on your game at home, it is just like selecting "Pro Play" on location. You are qualifiying for the World Championship, and a portion of that money is being collected for the prize fund for said World Championship. Your bill just has the incorrect terms on it.
Thank you for reaching out to Raw Thrills to clarify this.

Yes, this is correct. Even though I'm spending a little more money on it now, I feel like there is more at stake when I play which adds to the fun. I also enjoy seeing how I stack up with other players.
There is really no down side to opting in to "Pro Play" on a home game if you think you might want to try it. There are no extra charges if you don't use it. If you're ever interested in hiding Pro Mode, such as when your kids have friends over, you can always toggle the "Home Operator PRO Play Funding" setting to "Off" under "Game Adjustments" in the diagnostics menu.
I'm still trying to get some more details and understanding here, but for the life of me I don't understand everyone's complaining about Raw Thrills offering the "Pro" mode at home. Maybe it's because this group doesn't fully understand what "Pro" mode is? Here's my perspective:
- Sounds like there's a monthly fee to have it online so that you can play whatever content you want as much as you want. Perfect. This play doesn't qualify towards the weekly tournaments with payouts coming from Raw Thrills and doesn't add to your pro playfier profile for the annual tournament.
- Now it sounds like they are offering the *option* to also be able to play the "Pro" mode from home. Yes, this costs more money, IT HAS TO. The "Pro" mode allows for thousands of dollars of weekly payouts from Raw Thrills to the top players as well as building a pool to the million dollars or whatever it is that they pay out at the annual global tournament. For all those that dont see the value, that's fine, shoot better. I know my case is not common, but I won over $2K last year between weekly tourneys and my global tourney finish (another local buddy of mine won over $10K this year). Additionally, for me, I have to pay $3/trek to compete and build my weekly/global scores - being able to play for $2/trek at home with a perfectly calibrated gun is HUGE and would literally save me 33% of what I spend monthly on Big Buck - that's enough to probably cover the $40 monthly fee and pay the machine back, lol.
Anyway, to reiterate, you gotta pay more for the pro mode because it pays more out to the players. if you dont care about winning money or building your global leaderboard scores then there's absolutley no reason for anyone to play the Pro mode.
Please let me know if I'm misunderstanding any of this...

King Pin - I'll be emailing you about pricing and timing on a mini.
I think you are understanding it properly. The issues are: 1) It seems like it is harder to get prize payouts than it was in the past. Perhaps not as many people are playing or they are putting more of the pot money towards the finals. 2) It was falsely believed that by signing up for pro you now had to pay extra for Reloaded which was previously included in the $40/month. There was an error in how the bill was generated so it appeared that we were being charged extra per play for Reloaded games. This will not be an issue going forward.
This. When Raw Thrills erroneously tells people that reloaded content is now not included in their monthly fee, there is going to be some back lash.
That was 90% of it right there.
I know for a fact that of the $600 prize pool for the target trek, there are two people that go over $600 in plays combined. People spend hundreds, they use it to qualify, and they have fun doing it, not knocking them. In my opinion, there not even close to the amount of money being payed out. They are making a profit, which obviously they should, and they are funding the world championship, which most people won’t go to.
For me, it’s a no go. Just one guys opinion.

Just brought home my mini reloaded cabinet courtesy of Chris aka King Pin. Super smooth and fast transaction. Highly recommend him and his team as a distributor.

Yeah, there is no denying that Raw Thrills is making a *killing* on this game.
Easy to see how pinball had a period of dull drums when you can have a game with almost no maintenance taking in 100X the money in a quarter of the time.
All the hardcore BBH guys have a discord where they chit chat and setup real time showdowns with each other. If anyone is interested I can post a link. BBH folk are infinitely better than Golden Tee folk, maybe because the community is smaller, not sure.
It's a lot more fun playing showdows against reals, but even against bots, showdown is a great way to learn how to play that game. You see a replay of the winning persons site.
