    I don’t get out much, so don’t come across pinball in he wild too often. I’m back in Jersey for work and went to the one place in New Brunswick for dinner that has a pin: Destination Dogs with a Last Action Hero.

    But it’s gone! Replaced with a Skeepball?!? Nothing against Skeeball, but not really a fun solo activity.

    To make me sadder I’m missing the monthly pinball tournament tonight at the little shop of games in Tampa.

    Misery!

    Would love to but a little tough to bring back on the plane! Was setup easy to, I could usually score an extra game or two.

    Bah, bored. The arcade games they have all suck too. Whine.

    Beer ok though.

    I had a similar situation at a local pizza restaurant that had FG & they switched it out w/ a Stern RS. I still went there but I'd just go home & eventually play my own machines. You understand ~ I have to get my pinball fix somewhere! Though I'd hate to admit, if you can't pick & choose even a quick game on Mr & Mrs Pac-Man will do. My name is Shawn & I'm a pinaholic!

    I agree, but no pac man, Galaga, or defender. Just Tetris, buck hunter type game and something else. Bah. Back to hotel bar and maybe some pool!

    What I meant was Mr. & Mrs. Pac-Man pinball. I had a virtually perfect M & M Pac-Man a few years ago & the gameplay was sub-par at best. Just one of the worse machines that has been in our rotation.
    As far as video games, we have a 2500 in 1 & we are able to access almost anything. Once in a while it's fun to play a quick game of Jungle Hunt, Moon Patrol, Krull, Spy Hunter, Zazzon, etc. This machine is a temporary escape to our youth.

    Went there last time I was in town and had to be in Raritan, awesome!

    No time this trip though. I go home later today to my own pins, yay!

    You probably were not that far from Silverball Museum in Asbury Park. Awesome collection of @200 games.

    Nah, it’s a fun game. It’s just a bit complex for non pinball people to understand. May not be a great location game but here in Ohio, I know of two different barcade like businesses that have them specifically to fit in with the theme of their business.

    It’s one of my favorite Bally games and has pinball’s first video mode.
