    Shakers really add to the fun of playing pinball i think. If they are integrated right it makes the game exciting and gets your adrenaline pumping.

    Quoted from yzfguy:

    I have them in Ghostbusters, Metallica, AC/DC, star wars, and AFM. Yup, I like 'em. Makes ya feel more connected to the game.

    Storage Facility Multiball on GB is a good example, how cool is that when the shaker starts shaking when the lights start flashing on and off before the multiball starts?

    Quoted from RobKnapp:

    I love shakers motors . Except since STERN issues with KISS , GB , GOT with the insert ghosting and side art bubbling . I am afraid to install a Shaker motor in these titles as I am #1 Concerned Shaker may make the decal bubbling worse . # 2 May make the insert ghosting worse .
    What do you guy think ???
    If a machine has any of these issue ?
    Add Shaker or not add Shaker ?
    Thanks for input. Peace .

    I have a shaker on my GB and GOT both and i have no ghosting or anything at all. I think the ghosting is just bad playfields and if you get one that isnt ghosted it should be fine like any other game.

    My AS doesnt have a shaker and i love playing it and may never even put one in it. It does add to the fun though in certain games for sure. Its kinda like when you are playing PS4 and the controller vibrates, its kind of a simple and silly little thing but it makes playing video games alot more fun for some reason

    Quoted from MK6PIN:

    Would it be considered one of the top 4 mods for machines w the option? No additional poll of course, but for example, would you choose it over colordmd, pdi, etc.?
    I would have to think its at the top....

    Its definitely a top 4 mod in my opinion. Shaker vs a color dmd is a tough decision. I love the color dmd's but the truth is i dont have time to look at the dmd when im playing anyways and I always feel the shaker while playing.

    The color DMD for GOT looks amazing. I am going to have to get one.
