Came across a Tron today at the Ajax cineplex. Played it, and man, is it ever shocking how weak the flippers were and how poor the game felt. Having owned one, its an awesome game that deserves to be in better shape than that....

Just played a MET pro the other day at the new cineplex at empress walk. Plays great, strong flippers, although the same drop target problem with lots of rejected shots. This is why I'm waiting until the next run of pros to pick one up. Hopefully they have a fix by then.

The MET is a few weeks old.
Tron has probably been on location over a year without much attention.

I find that Tron is a game that can be a real case of Jeckyll and Hyde. Fantastic when set up just right and dialed in.... but a real dog if not.

Weak flippers should never be an issues though

This scenario applies to any and all pins, period. :) (of course you have turds that are all dialed in just right and still play like a turd)

The BDK that was in a poor state of repair (the one with only one flipper rubber) @ Cineplex Odeon in Scarborough @ Eglinton/Warden has been removed.
