I picked up the Vacation America for 500 yesterday, so you know. It's my first machine and frankly, my young sons and I are having a pretty good time with it. Everything seems to be in nice condition although all the criticisms of the machine seem pretty valid. My ideal machine would be Indianapolis 500, but I can't justify spending 4,000 dollars. Anyway, I have noticed an annoying problem...when I attempt to get multi ball going and lock the 2nd ball in the upper kick-out, the machine doesn't doesn't give me a new ball. It seems like a software bug or something because the upper kick out works before the multi ball light is lit. Not sure what to do and it's frustrating since multi ball is the most fun thing and I haven't been able to initiate it yet. I have to turn the machine off and back on again for the machine to kick out the ball and give me a new ball. Frustrating. Any ideas how to fix?
Looking forward to all the shots I am going to take for buying the worst pinball machine ever, but hey, at least I own a pinball now!
