Item description

The 13 ball multi-ball is pretty nuts. Nothing else like it and my friends love it. Of my three games, this is usually not the first one people play until they see the multi-ball. This often becomes their favorite after that. Its easy enough for beginners to enjoy and yet has some challenging timed modes for real players too. I feel rewarded at least after a good game on it.

I did a full top down to wood cleaning 7 months ago. Game has been played about three dozen times or so since. Playfeild has 100% premium anti ghosting LEDs including flashers. I added some UV leds too which look pretty amazing with this theme. The backbox is mix of LED and bulbs for proper face color temperature on the artwork. All new rubber. 13 new balls. I've confirmed all the switches work. DMD is strong and bright. There's no static noise or interference with the audio which can be an issue on some. The moon magnet is also a common failure which is fully working on this game. Two other versions I've played of this have had weak flippers. I think that's a Sega hardware issue but that's not a problem with this one. No cracked ramps, subway is clean and in good shape. Coin ops work but I've got it set on free play right now. NVRAM installed so no batteries needed. There's a cracked left slingshot plastic where the hole for the screw goes. It doesn't effect anything and isn't noticeable while assembled but full disclosure that it's there. Its not a too terribly difficult plastic to get but I just haven't yet. There the typical scrapes and scratches on the cabinet for it's age. Its original, not modern decals. So you could touch up paint the cabinet if that's your thing reasonably easily.

I've owned the game two years and I truly do hate to see this one go. I only have room for three games and I need to make room for a custom machine I'm building. Its a rare game and you don't see them on pinside all that often. The site says they made only 2000 of these and its a surprisingly fun and challenging game. I searched for over a year to find one in this nice of condition. Its by no means perfect but I'd say its better than players condition and looks good in my home. I've tried to show the worst flaws in the photos but you'll see it looks a lot nicer in person.
