If you have the latest code they will start after 3 hero modes are completed,during Rogue,or sometimes Xavier.

Hi ,
Complete 3 modes and u get nc mode. But not sure which softwRe u have?
Also during nc comings during rogue mode.

Run them in test mode to see if they pop up and down, if not, there are 2 fuses under the playfield that are in circuit with them, if both those things are good you may have a board issue. What is your version on the Transistor Power driver board, its the small one under the 2 bigger boards in the back box and is referred to as the Auxillary board, RevA or B?

In v1.3 There's also an xmen feature adjustment on the menu for "NC mystery progression enabled", or something like that. It's default is "No". Switching to "yes" makes NC mode the third Blackbird scoop reward.

Otherwise, like everyone said, you get it for competing three hero modes and for beating a villain after completing at least three hero modes, I believe.

NC mode rewards an extra ball for the first completion , and around 6mil or so every complete after that. NC mode after the hero modes and after the villain completion after three hero modes count as two separate modes. So you can get an extra ball for the hero completion NC mode AND the villain completion.

NC mechs are used also, as stated previously, during Rogue, Xavier (only if NC is the "mystery" mutant.....some mystery) and are also used during the Danger Room wizard mode to represent gun turrets and "shields" to block shots.

You need to contact the original buyer of your machine & have them get you a new version board. If you wait till yours fries,you'll have a game just sitting there broke until you can get a new one. When the board fries,both night crawlers will stay up,& the magnet in front of Wolverine burns to a crisp! I had my distributor get me a new one sent before I had the game out of the box. Swapped them our & never had a problem.

For sure man, get the RevB, you will need to contact the distributor the game was originally purchased from, if that Wolvy magnet locks on it will destroy the magnet and will burn the play field if not caught soon enough.

Good luck with that too. My night crawlers went out so I emailed Stern and got the garbage response of "Call your Distributor" really pissed me off especially since I didn't get it from a distributor! WTF Stern!!

Stern can tell you who the distributor was by serial number. If your machine is less than a year old, which Stern will also know, they will cover it through the distributor no charge. They have been known to cover things a few months outside of warranty, especially for known issues, be nice.

Don't tell them you want a new board just in case yours fries. Tell them it's fried or they may tell you to wait.

Mine was outside of warranty and they replaced it no problems. But I am the original owner. The board will fail, just a matter of when.

There is really no excuse that Stern didn't do a service bulletin / recall on the revision A aux boards. They know it was a design flaw and fixed it.....but they will only send the new revision out if you contact them and ask.

That is some straight up BULLSHIT isnt it? Stern really dropped a deuce on everyone with that.

I have to change my earlier statement. Patrick did get back to me. I actually took my old board to Stern. (I'm only an hour away and I wanted to go to Logan's Hardware). He gave me the new board and harness and everything is great. Yes this sucked but I'm hopefully done with this and I loved this pin anyway!!

I've said it before and will say it again, Pat is an awesome guy to deal with. A credit to Stern.

All my new pins have been through Trent. Great distributor. Your gonna love Xmen LE! Probably the hardest pin I own,but always come back for more abuse. Enjoy
