Fish Tales
Williams, 1992I was playing some #fishtales tonight, and I havn't played everything, but man is that launch a real SOB? It comes fast at the left flipper and if you dont live catch that thing it could drain out without you getting a chance at it?
Any other games super brutal to even get a ball started?
Quoted from mbaumle:White Water if the center ramp isn’t adjusted properly. A full plunge can send that ball right around, down the left ramp, and straight down the middle.
Sounds like that’s adjusted properly.

Ohh man that sounds brutal. I just imagine a friend who rarely plays walking into something like that. “Man why do you even like pinball?”
Quoted from PinballHaven:Wonka can be a beast if not set up well........and even when it is sometimes.
I agree, Lawlor really setup the plunge on Wonka pretty weird. Sometimes it comes ripping through and drains immediately.
Recently picked up Lethal Weapon 3 and the auto-plunge rebound from the standups LOVES to power drain on the right outlane.

If you time FishTales launch well, you can one hammer it right to the Casters Club or right to the right side of the boat once the timing is figured out

Double check the rubber ring at the end of the ball guide by the ball lock. If it’s too large it can influence the ball incorrectly and be a headache.

Fast Cast!
Stern Star Wars can be brutal if not set up right, straight to the left outlane.
Getaway seems to rarely make the loop to the upper flipper.

Why would you ever full plunge on Wonka?
