Pinball is crack

Written by jkeiser, published July 11th, 2014. 3 comment(s).

Well it all starts with one Christmas and a local route company,, I had always had a thing for Nintendo games but never fell victim to the power of pinball. Untill....... The first game I brought home FUNHOUSE !!!!!! WOW what have I been missing ? It stood in the corner of the basement that had only been used for dusty woodworking from the previous owner of the house. Untilll this point i had no use for this room. Untill NOW ! I completely dove in .

 

The game took all time I had and brought me to a sort of awe state. I came home from work every night and played until all the worries of life left ,.. What a feeling No game had ever done that to me ..... EVER..... I HAD TO HAVE MORE . Was this a DRUG ???

I am hooked and I have to have more games. What next? I had one of the best game I could of ever landed. Well I went to work and found a World Cup 94...... One of the best games I have ever played ...." NOT EXPENSIVE ..... AND SO MANY SHOTS . I'm loving this . Now five years later I'm writing this story to you all to let you know that the silver ball is a rock of crack ...... SO BE CAREFUL ..... And play on !! ,!!

I couldn't agree with you more... like you I had always been into Arcade games and home arcade systems ignoring pinball all together now I am selling off all of my arcade machines to make room for more pinball machines....... like the most nefarious drug it is So Totally Addictive

I have the same story. It's so addictive it's weird. And I never even liked Pinball until recently.

I am glad I am not the only one! I just got my first pin, Whirlwind, and already searching night and day for the next machine.
