This is also great info in general for anyone setting up a new machine at home... More vids please Mark. Can we get a sort of video diary of machines you repair through the shop? (ala TNT Amusements) Love to see a vid of you prototype drop target Firepower with the hand painted backglass.
Have you got Thunderbirds are go over there and if so how are you finding it profit wise in location. How's the best way to determine buying a game for location as well thanks.
Yes I have Thunderbirds and some other new Pinballs I'm currently evaluating. I will have a show about it & other new Pinballs very soon. I may also do a separate show about buying used pinballs if there is enough interest.
5 minutes ? =O I need around 8 to 10 minutes on 1 ball on some games in order to "finish" the game (hit all marks) and then the game is back to first ball (I often store up extra ball's so in total count it's around 5 to 7 balls / game)
That maybe true but completing every feature in a game should be a very rare event on most games even for the best players. If a Pinball is set up properly long games over 10 minutes will be quite rare but NOT impossible. The most important goal is to make sure new or novice players get a decent game.
@@PinballExpert I am a new player. But also im someone who can spend 6 to 10 hours at one game.. and continue with that for a whole week. Sad part is that I get tired of that game for a year or 2 when I set e new personal "best" sometimes I don't even come back to that game at all like I did with Earth Shaker.
I agree, in part. I mostly agree, but I'd suggest to separate your vid into bite sized pieces, 26 mins is too long. Most of what you say is what most operators like myself know anyway. I remember when I purchased my first pinball from LAI. The sales manager I had was bettter. LAI sales in SA,
