Quoted from Jediturtle:

Anyone thinking about moving a Guardians of the Galaxy pro or Iron Man?

Quoted from Yokimato:

Looking for a nice TSPP within 3ish hours drive if anyone is looking to part with theirs.

I have an Iron Man VE and TSPP that I'll be moving out in the next month. I'm downsizing my collection in preparation for a move to Florida later in the year.

Jediturtle is looking for an Ironman. I’ll let him know.

#12253 5 years ago

Looking for a Spider Man or Iron Man if anyone is looking to sell theirs. Preferably unmodded with the exception of ColorDMD.

#12254 5 years ago

I’ve been watching craigslist in the area the last few months, hoping to add a few pins. Seems to be the same few undersirable posts over and over... are there better places to look?

People have apps on their phones and have vehicle and cash and are ready to roll when a pinball machine goes up. So you may be missing the times something good gets posted.

Take one for the team and buy that overpriced Space Invaders so we don’t have to keep seeing that stupid ad.

#12257 5 years ago

I thought that space invaders listing had to be a scam from overseas...

#12258 5 years ago

Anyone looking to sell anything? Looking for something fun <$3k.

#12259 5 years ago

I head a rumor that a few sconnies are coming over for silverball @ Blainbrook in march!? Fill your cars up and get over here

#12260 5 years ago

I was at Player 2 in Appleton last week, they went from having 3 working pins to 8! It was interesting to see how busy it was at the pins compared to how dead it was at the other arcade games.

#12261 5 years ago

Anyone close to the owner/operator at St. Paul Tap? Looks like they are working on opening another location in Hudson, WI?!? At least I'm assuming it's the same owner, the signage looks to be a similar design. If this is the case, I'm super excited!

I am and I would say it's safe to get excited.

Quoted from LesManley:

John... can you put a bug in the owners ear that St. Cloud is ripe for expansion as well? Not close to St. Paul or the east side, but I know a certain someone who would love to help promote it, run leagues, etc. I realize there's much more than pinball needed for a successful restaurant/bar, but a guy can dream, can't he?

#12267 5 years ago
Quoted from LesManley:

Where in Hudson? How many games? Would be nice to have pinball less then 10 minutes from home.

I can try. I know he has Rochester so it isn't too far to think that would be out of the question.

Quoted from foxtj24:

I don't know the address or exactly where it's located. Maybe #Seven9er does? I believe the plan is to be a little more scaled down version since the space is smaller. Around 5-6 games I believe.

The address is 417 2nd street, Hudson, WI. It's taking over from the short lived Mexican restaurant on the main drag. Parking won't be fun, but the location will certainly get a lot of foot traffic.

It will be very interesting to see how many machines they are able to pack in there. As LesManley said it's a pretty small location to begin with.

It's brand new and never taken out of the shipping box I got it in. ready to install. Pic of it in the box is the actual apron. Other pic is to show what it looks like in the game when lit up (but not my pic)

Parking isn't that bad at night if you don't mind walking a little - I always parked in the Wells Fargo lot.

I lived in Hudson for years and never tried Dragon Pearl... I feel like I missed out.

#12278 5 years ago

We’re getting a barcade here in Oshkosh in a few weeks....pixels. Don’t know anything more though.

Are you saying Rochester, MN might get some sort of Barcade? This could save me a ton of money so I don't have to buy the pins I want to play.

I can tell that’s the Junkyard I used to own and can say for sure it’s true HUO.
I bought it from the original owner in Big Lake then later traded it to a fella named Todd.

Is anyone in the St. Paul area selling a Medieval Madness or Deadpool pro (HUO)? Recently sold my TSPP and looking to add one of these machines.

Dragon Pearl is awesome. Still go there once a week. Smilin Moose 1 block down used to be my favorite place before I got Celiac's. Nothing for me there now.

Dick's Bar around the corner usually has a pin in there. At Xmas it was an Iron Maiden.

Quoted from foxtj24:

Dick's still has the Iron Maiden as of last week. It needs a good cleaning and some attention. The bulls eye target gets stuck and the ball gets hung up on the post back there as well.

Smilin Moose does have a Star Wars Pro with it set at .50 cents a game with the replay score set pretty low as well. It's still on old code so it's pretty cheap to play.

I believe they are both operated by the same company who clearly don't care about the machines too much. No code updates and machines could use a nice cleaning. I can't complain too much as they are the only machines on location in town unless you want to go play a beat up Jokerz machine at Hop n Barrel.

Fuckin tired of it. I have a trench for a driveway right now. 6ft-7ft banks..

#12291 5 years ago
Quoted from RVH:

Thanks, RVH. Very helpful. I just tussled with an ice-dam-formed icicle hanging from my roof that is about the size of a narwhal tusk. I thought I could cleave it off with a swing of a shovel while hanging out a second-floor window. Nope. Not even close! I lopped off about three feet of it and the rest isn't going anywhere. I worry about the poor gutters, as all those nested icicles have got to weigh a ton.
