I will never ever ever get sick of that intro, great to have you back !!

It was nice having Jay along to provide some additional commentary - he knows his stuff too

John I'm so glad you're back! I was getting really irritated for a long time. So glad you made it back again. You're the best guy out there in the arcade world. I've been a fan for a long time and don't let covid stop you from getting on the road. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Just hearing john talking about the bronco gives me hope!

So happy to have one of my favorite RU-vid channels back. Cheers from Australia

What an awesome collection; didn’t want the tour to end, haha Especially loved seeing the older pins; really interesting commentary all around, thanks for sharing with us!

Damn, John's Arcade on the Road! Best Sunday ever!!!

It's cool to see your buddy Dan having his own pinball club. It looks so cool!

Pure 🔥 John!!!

Glad to have you back!

Nice to have you back john!

LOL, "If it's not broken, it's not pinball!" Hahaha!

Yes, the gold splatter was on purpose. I restored a Bally Paragon and had it for 10 years. This table was also a sequel to the 1978 table "Lost World". Both tables art was done by Paul Faris.

Listening to the histories of arcade machines or pinball machines is very fascinating, to say the least.

I am so happy to see you back on my notifications. I really missed your channel.

This is just great. Hearing the intro really made me smile. Thanks John!

GOOSEBUMPS!!! I got goosebumps seeing the JA intro! Lookin' great John! Glad you are back! you were missed.

Well that made me like pins more than I did before. I like the old ones, nice simple rules and would be good to have top score nights on I'm sure

another fantastic video John thanks! I remember many of these, we got different games every month at our bakery in the 70's and 80's:) good times, had 6 cards to;)

And now John is back, 2020 keeps giving !

Long time fan who has really missed your videos. Im also mostly a pinball guy, so I LOVED this video. Keep them coming!

how cool is seeing that Contact and realizing HArry Williams first electrified pinball (marble) with "Contact"

I remember playing the hell out of a pinball game in around 1987+ at Skate Central in Stafford TX. Still haven't been able to locate what game it was, but remember there being a red head or brunette woman on the back glass and it having a somewhat space/rock theme. Looked very 80s, but I've always wanted to figure that out.

Went to the The Strong History of play museum in Rochester, NY last year. Has an incredible collection of arcades, pins, games and computers. Have a really cool pinball play area with new and old. Has anyone ever been ???

Great to see your back . I missed watching your videos during my lunch break and I really love your on the road videos .

wow i never knew mass had so many great places to play pinball and arcade games been looking for some good places for a while

JOHN!!! So happy to have you back!

This opening really gives you instant 80s arcade vibes

Nice to see you back John. Hated to see you break with all the momentum you had, but I think people need Johns arcade especially right now. We all need a break for some maintenance just like our games. Big thumbs up and I’m digging my Johns arcade shirt out of the closet.

Thank you for coming back with new video's!

Card Whizz is the same as Royal Flush which I have fond memories because somehow I could play forever on 1 quarter because it was easy to get replays.

johns "you like those cupholders?" arcade

The lion in paragon is a mythical creature called a chimera

Welcome back John! Glad you are back at it!

Entering that pinball club was like going to Fight Club. Wouldn't know it to be there. Super neat. Glad he got out during the pandemic. When this is over in 18 months we will be looking back on it.

Great video John, that place looks like a ton of fun!

Man, so glad to see you´re back! I´ve missed you a lot.. and I love on the road vids.. thanks from Sweden!! :-)

Great to see you back man, it's about time dude! That guy has a great collection of pins

PHEW! Didn't know how many times I could watch that Journey restoration again.

Glad you are back John awesome on the road episode LOVE Pinball! ! !

i am so glad your back, i have no problem saying i missed you!

Man, you have the coolest basement in the history of basements! ... Just needs a bar. Haha. But man, you being gone builds a new appreciation for how much I love your channel.

WOW awesome collection

Hi glad your back at it! Love your videos!! Freeplay Arcade and the Western Mass Pinball Club are great! Hi guys!

It's been too long, glad to see you back in the basement! This was a great return, great road trip and some amazing pins I've never heard of...

BEST SUNDAY EVER!

My favoret was one that had 3 total playable sections.. there was the main level like any normal pinball game with lights and grafixs. On mine was a plexiglass window with a separate pinball field below the main play field.. And lastly it had a one flipper suspended pinball game above the main field and was reachable with a ramp... so 3 games in one cabnet..

John! 2 vid's in a week! God damn! Love having you back, need to get back in the arcade myself, miss it!

Hey John! Good to have you back, brother.

So good to have you back. You are a great inspiration to fellow enthusiasts! Keep up the great work!

Oh my God John thank goodness you are back, I was waiting patiently for your return, welcome back. Great video.

Back in the basement! Still rockin my t shirt man!! Thanks John!

Woah. I never knew this existed. Three Rivers is a hop skip away.

Good to see you back!

Wow! the basement looks so different its kinda cool actually nicely done john!

It’s so nice to hear that “Hey guys, we are in the basement!” on a Sunday again. Glad you’re back!

Awesome pinball lingo!

Wow, for pinball this guy has beat Doc Brundy's by far (a place that reused my parents' old Keeping Memories Alive buildings here in Utah in Spanish Fork)! But does this place have a restaurant and duckpin bowling too?

Damn, I have missed these Sunday nights for a long time. Once again, welcome back. And thanks.

I can't believe it!!! Back to the future with John on the road again!! Whoooo!! 👍👍👍

I need an old Coney island backglass!!!! Like bad!!!!

It's good to see you again, John! Welcome back! Great video!

What a treat for a lazy Sunday! Thanks, John!

Williams did make a wide-body called stellar wars. I love that game.

I was in a pub in Devon a few weeks back and up on the shelf was a bottle of Pyrat Rum It was a sign John

Glad to see John back. Hope the break from RU-vid helped him out

When Jhon said I hated theater of magic...oof that hurt 😔

Cool, games should be played by people, we need more clubs 😅😎

World Cup is a great pin. Love playing the physical machine but also like it on Pinball Arcade.

John, the flying lion is a manticore, which is a creature from Greek myth.

The place looks pretty damn cool. Very good walk though. I wish them luck in their business endeavors. Damn C-19... Anyway, thanks for the video! Highly enjoyable (per usual).

nice vid that place is pinball heaven thx for showing this to us. im very happy that you are active again man 👍😎

What was the first multiball pinball machine? When I played pinball in the late 70's early 80's The Black Knight was very popular...I know that was not the first. Love this video.

Ive missed your videos John regards Richard in the UK..

Wipeout! its nice to see that one again. There was one in my city's downtown arcade, but they had to close when the restaurant next door burned down & their building was too damaged :(

So glad you are back and making videos.. missed your content!

Happy your back John

Yay, great to see you back posting videos again 😊

That is kind of funny, I guess they were going for a relaxed look on the people but they look stoned lol. Yeah damn Covid, I was planning to try out a barcade for my first time just before the pandemic. Fun stuff, I love looking over all the art and details of pinball. :D

Hey John! That mirror finish that you were talking about on time fantasy I think the other pinball that you were trying to refer to I believe is Silverlverball Mania. please anybody don't quote me on that but I have a feeling that's the game that he was referring to I will research.

Is the world coming to a end??? An i seeing things? He's back!!!!!! Regardless I'm happy you're back.

Play Stern Deadpool. It also uses a lot of Williams joust robotron and defender sounds.

John! Welcome back!

JOHN OMG YOU ARE BACK? WE'VE MISSED YOU JOHN

57:55. The intro music for the "Wipe Out" pin is a surf song from back in the 60s. Bit of a miss on that one. Guess if it was a surf theme they couldn't have a ski lift thingy.

Great video John, good to have you back! 👍

The first game flashing is Galaxy from Stern.
