Here is something new collectors may not have read or seen.
"Everything you want to know...but did not know what to ask" pinball series.

Quite a number of years back Aeneas at Flippers.be wrote out a very good article on the history, development, and production of Capcom's "Big Bang Bar" both the original and remake:

Original IPDB Entry: http://www.ipdb.org/search.pl?any=Big+bang&sortby=name&search=Search+Database&searchtype=quick#4001
Reproduction IPDB Entry: http://www.ipdb.org/search.pl?any=Big+bang&sortby=name&search=Search+Database&searchtype=quick#5244

It is somewhat "hidden" inside the Flippers.be website, if you don't know where to look inside the website itself.

http://www.flippers.be/pinball/capcom/bigbangbar/bigbangbar.html

More importantly if you want to see production and development photos of the game make sure you go to the separate website here:

http://www.bbbpictures.com/

This is a treasure trove of historical photos on the game production and some of the first owners to receive the games after completion.
Sometimes I feel a little bad, I did not make the game deposit.

Not to mention this wonderful DVD
http://www.marcospecialties.com/pinball-parts/PAV3
Not sure about the description Marco has because the whole DVD is about BBB

Start to finish about the BBB project, the parts sources (and issues with parts and how much time and money Gene spent putting it right) all the way up to ship date and completed games,
Fascinating DVD and a must for any BBB owner or enthusiast!
