Pinball machines are pure works of art, I swear. There’s just something magical about the feeling you get when playing or even just watching someone play like you.
As someone who's still very new to the world of proper pinball appreciation, I really do love this board. It's got a relatively low skill threshold for getting cool stuff to happen, it's well balanced, and you get a lot of funny and entertaining sound cues. Awesome game.
@@strangus me too, this was released in 1997, the same year she joined snl as writer before taking over colin quinn's weekend update role (along with future tonight show host jimmy fallon) and becoming a cast member in september 2000, fallon left and was repleaced by amy poehler in 2004, but tina fey was still the anchor of weekend update and a cast member until 2006 when she left due to her making 30 rock, and seth meyers (a future late night host) took over her spot! go watch strike force five with jimmy fallon, seth meyers, jjimmy kimell and the comedy duo of stephen colbert and john oliver (best known for being a corrospondet on the daily show along with steve carell, the star of the ambigiously gay duo and the office usa)
After watching this video I clearly need to practice more. My angles and shot abilities are good but I want flipper control like this. Absolutely amazing ball control. My hats off to you, sir.
I used to play the shit out of this at the arcade in Newport, RI in the late 90s. It was so much fun. I looked one up to get for my house. Sweet lord are they expensive.
I got a chance to play the remake in Comic2Games, it was definitely my favorite machine! The castle prop is so cool, especially with the shaking motions!
Maybe you should consider a virtual pinball machine. You can create your own for less money. Search on YT for it, Medieval Madness is my favorite table and it's available on VPX or FX3.
That's crazy they made a remake of the game. It must be real popular. I've never played it myself although I did play a lot of classic Williams games from that era.
Just discovered pinballs machines recently. There's a pinball museum in Brussels, Belgium and they have this game. Became addicted IMMEDIATELY! Enjoyed this vid, thanks!
I loved Pinball! - past tense, they're not in Pubs these days, sadly - Except when it was out've action as some heavy-handed clunk'd broke it thumping & shaking it.
I remember playing this game back in the 90s and being blown away. I recently purchased the Pinball FX 3 simulator on the Nintendo Switch which is the next best thing. I can now actually try to achieve things that I couldn't afford to back in the day - so many quarters, haha! Anyway, the animations in the dot matrix on this table look different. Is this an updated version?
The Medieval Madness at my local, sometimes the ball goes from the Catapult into the left ramp and sometimes instead of going to the left flipper just goes straight down the left outlane? Is there something wrong with the machine or is it just a unique money draining feature because I haven't seen this happen in any video demonstrations.
you could stall the ball on a flipper and then send it to the drawbridge door.... that was the trick to high scores. once the drawbridge was down you could send it.
They will supposedly build another round of remakes in late 2023 or early 2024, but no idea what the price will be, prolly not cheap thanks to inflation
F my life, i've never seen such an insane machine. Anybody like me who thinks T2, Indiana Jones or so are da shit have not played that one. Just played it on PC and wanted to see if this is real.
The key is destroying the castle all the time, is this the battle of kingdom? I have it in my console, how much is to build this pinball machine with all these gadgets? Incredible… The man playing makes easy the impossible for many, a wizard!
No, destroying all the castles to get "castle crusher" is only one of the main goals, but it is the hardest one. You also have to make enough of the other shots to get "master of trolls" "patron of the peasants" "defender of damsels" "catapult ace" and "joust champion" and then you will have the ability to activate "battle for the kingdom". You can't build a pinball machine, you have to buy it.
How much did u purchase this for it is legit my fav pinball machine ever Edit: used $30 worth of quarters just to play this game for an hour lol ANOTHER EDIT: lol im sooo jealous
Nice video as always. However, I felt this focused too much on destroying castles. Royal Madness wasn't even shown, no mention of Barnyard Multiball and the Battle for the Kingdom wasn't explained or shown either. To me, it felt like 1 of the many goals was explained but the rest left out. If I didn't know Medieval Madness before I'd think this was a really repititive and boring game with only one major shot.
This wasn't a tutorial video (although PAPA has one filmed under the name CGRpinball), it was more of a skills video. Getting the "Castle Crusher" award is very difficult and this was just a video showing that off.
Nightenstaff I know, I'm a subscriber and also seen all of the CGR Videos. I realize that this was still a good game, however, I'd expect such a goal driven gameplay in one of the games in a tutorial video and not from a gameplay video. I felt that that this gameplay video didn't show the actual gameplay that Medieval Madness offers. It should be called "Medieval Madness - Castle Crusher Gameplay". In a gameplay video I don't expect a playthrough of any mode or goal but rather all features the machine has to offer. I believe this was also done on the previous Gameplay videos.
I remember one night I had this machine smoking lol, they hadn't done any maintenance on it and all you could smell was burning electrical components. I think I hooked up with some local slag that night after killing the machine.
