The Shadow.

I always liked pinball, but didn’t seek it out. I always wanted a machine, but it was never the right time.

When COVID hit I became obsessed with the idea of pinball (I have NO idea why). I played on my phone, watched videos, and read a lot on Pinside. After lots of research I decided the Shadow was likely the best bang for my buck. I found one not too far away (but the border was closed) and had it shipped. I had played it at least once in my childhood, and remembered enjoying it.

It was the first machine I played while knowing what the objectives were. That, coupled with how great the machine feels, and I was completely sold. Can’t wait until I can join a league and go to tournaments.
