My God. 1.949.528.540 !!! I made 921.567.432 in 1998 and i think its a great score. Congrats !!! Frankstein Pimball was the best pimball machine for my opinion.
Sonic made a appearance in Starship Troopers pinball game in the match screen where the Brain bug is thinking about random stuff Sonic's head appears in the thought bubble
Yo holy shit, I’ve only played the Pinball Arcade version of this game and I have to say, seeing it irl it looks so much more fun and way cooler I hope one day to get a Pinball machine of my own
I'd only buy one if you like working on them. I had one for two months and will probably never own another. It seems the people that mostly hold onto them are the people who restore them and collect them - hardcore hobbyists who have dedicated pinball workshops and stuff. I wouldn't recommend one just to add to a game room if troubleshooting electronics is not a hobby of yours. YMMV.
I recently got one (Frankenstein), and the main ramp on the right, next to the north pole, has what looks like 2 lights Bue and Red, they're not in the manual, I have a spotlight tat shines on Frankenstein, which is also not in the diagram, but it does say GI bulbs not shown, so did you re-do something with that spotlight?
I killed this machine permanently at a local hotels arcade recently...hit the Geneva multi ball and it locked up mid game. Went back a few weeks later and the machine was removed, haven't seen it since. Miss it, one of my favorites.
It looks to me as if Stern took this same layout and rethemed it for "Ripley's Believe It Or Not." Of course Stern owns the rights to the SEGA tables, so no harm, no foul. I played both tables on location when they were first released, but I just now noticed how similar the two tables are.
SO frustrating to watch you play, let the ball bounce off the flipper to the other flipper, to be able to shoot the shots you need instead of just ''flipping'' it to flip.
