    I thought I saw a Spinal Tap pin moving in on the first day. Did anyone get any pictures or play it?

    I'll be there next year.

    Quoted from Captive_Ball:

    Third-ed....that Taxi played like butter! Enjoyed playing a nice example.

    I played a game on it....it was a converted Flash Gordon. It kept my attention....upper Stern type flipper was a little smaller feeling that the traditional, but it packed a punch!

    Thanks Captive Ball, Fan of the movie.

    Quoted from t3amaw3s0m3:

    I met the Spinal Tap makers next to the machine and we geeked out over it for a little while. They opened up the coin door to show me all their custom wiring job (no original wiring harnesses involved) inside the cabinet. That's definitely the part I'm least looking forward to if I do something similar. They are also software & hardware people professionally, so everything was done from scratch. There were no frameworks used (e.g. Mission Pinball); it's controlled by a Mac Mini with a GPIO expander (though he didn't mention P-ROC IIRC - that may have been custom too).
    The art on it was very impressive and there were some pretty hilarious modes you could hit, like special video clips upon achieving certain goals, and a random award selector that would give you either an 11-ball multiball, 17 (?) points, or others.

    Hope they are at future shows would love to check it out.
    11-ball multiball is crazy. I think Apollo 13 has 13-ball multiball but still Wow.
    Thanks for sharing the info
