Added over 7 years ago: Let's add Globetrotters and Evel Knievel to the list.............

How about some posts about what you hope to PLAY at the show?? I know people are wanting to find a deal, but these shows also offer a great opportunity to focus on titles you think you might want to purchase in the future.

Nothing sooper rare for me, but my interest has been piqued for the following games:

Centaur
Globetrotters
Evel Knievel
Jumping Jack
Grand Prix
Surf Champ
Stern Playboy
Judge Dredd
Skateball
JackBot
Mousin Around
Fastbreak NBA
Atlantis
Future Spa
Jungle Lord
Secret Service

That's a beauty!! I watched that video and thought "Now THAT's how an EM should play" Most EM's at the show are not nearly as "lively!!"

Don't expect too much!! Was surprisingly dull and hard to understand what is happening............ IMO

"Totally underrated flick."

Looking for Globetrotters, Fire or Evel Knievel. Projects fine - would like boards to be working.

Damn, everybody wants Meteor (can't blame 'em - me too!!) and there's a few Old Chicago's up for sale - is that a sucky game, or.........I've heard that it's fun - looks like 1,000 is the going price for that one?

I have an empty SpyHunter backbox without the door I could bring if anyone wants it. Nice shape

Still wanting to work out a deal for a project Globetrotters or Evel with decent boards..............nobody???

Possibly need a person from Baltimore (county) area to bring a pin back with them - I may have scored TWO machines and think I can only fit one into my Matrix. Anyone going to have room coming back???

-Nate

Might have to - the wife said she might drive up her Matrix as well to fit 'em both - we're "Matrix Twins" I wanna be sure to hay "hey!" when I'm up there - I look pretty much the same...............been too long!!!

Yes, that sounds like an excellent idea - Should be Friday, how about for a lunch trek over to the Farmer's Market??? Would like to meet all you crazy people!!!

-Nate

OMG! Wow, that Lectronomo playfield is a beauty! Amazing that this AND a decent machine is up for sale at the same time.

Actually a fun, if simple game................

Is there anywhere remotely covered for the loading/unloading of games near the building??? I'm bringing a dry change of clothes - yuck!!!!

Had a blast at Allentown, was shocked at how many good deals there were on machines - loved seeing the "EM Row" and being able to check out a bunch of titles that were on my "want to play/maybe own someday" list. LOVED Stern 9 Ball and wanted to buy, anyone come home with the one on the last row near the loading dock?? That played like a champ!! Incredible how many Stern pins were there, Freefall (isn't that kinda rare? looked great and liked the speech, too bad I didn't know the rules better), BigGame, about 4/5 Meteors, 2 Nine Balls, Stars, Galaxy - Wow!

Enjoyed Grand Prix, Skateball (love that artwork - sounds are waaaay funky/weird though!), Volley, Ice Fever (great), the EM with the goofy giant soccer player smack dab in the middle of the pf, that Dr. Who was incredibly annoying, is the ability to turn off that Dalek sqwaking voice an option???

Funny story, I've been looking for Meteor forever (well, a while) and hooked-up to buy a project at Allentown, got there met the guy, paid, loaded - pay to get into the show, and there are like 5 Meteors all set up and running, for sale for about 200 dollars more than what I paid. DOH!!! That was a laughable "in your face" kinda moment - who woulda thought???

I have to apologize for not meeting rickzilla or a few others, I couldn't hear my phone in the racket and had trouble with my phone anyway, so just gave up on trying to call while at the show.

Thanks everyone for putting on the show, it's a hell of a lotta work, and appreciated.

-Nate

No one said "hello" to me either, had my badge on - maybe we should do a "rouges gallery" of Pinsiders so we can ID with faces ........ I actually didn't see too many badges - maybe it's just the "pinball overload" that hits everyone once they walk into a room full of pinball machines!!!

Maybe people are shy, after all, we are all game playing introverts right? haha.... I did notice "GateCrasher" but I couldn't get him to stand still long enough to say "hey." My wife said she spotted quite a few of you guys with badges.........maybe York I'll try harder to focus on people and not machines.........Saw that SpyHunter, good job!

That's a *GREAT* idea, I bet some of our wives would volunteer to man the area as well - hell, people could also bring parts, etc for sale. We could start planning to do this for York and see how successful it is??......................

Did anyone buy that project Secret Service or that Globetrotters in the back corner? What were they going for?

Was bummed SS wasn't working, wanted to give that a try - man, those early DataEast machines feel so solid! Noticed that about Robocop.

Also that Globetrotters in the free play area, I wanted badly to try that but it looked like a broken down car sitting in a car graveyard each time I passed it!!!???

-Nate

Scott S and Gatecrasher - that's something to forget pf parts! Everyone talks highly of the game so I really want to try it out. I'm old enough to remember seeing that bunch of HG's that the machine features - loved them was I was a kid.

WeatherbyMAG, great machines! Love the Super-Flight artwork (and Space Odyssey and.........)!

Bluespin, thanks for the info - glad that GlobeTrot found a home.

Oh Gawd!!

Wow!!! Now THAT'S a Harlem Globetrotters!!!! Just a bit nicer than the one on freeplay at Allentown

-Nate

Loved that Team One! Great purchase - hopefully you've got it jacked-up a bit more so it plays faster, was a little sluggish at A-town.
