    JJP "Epic" Annoucnement

    It'll be game 3 at the very least. JJP needs to keep the money train rolling while the getting is good. Pat Lawlor has been rumoured since Expo... hopefully that happens and we're not simply underwhelmed with a big game #3 announcement and no new designer. Since JJP promised a non-licensed...

    FS Cabinet Repairs and Replacement

    Forgot about TZ. That's right. The button didn't move until after that game.

    FS Cabinet Repairs and Replacement

    Nice work Steve! What's really interesting is the placement of the buttons. This build appears to have the SUPER BALL button placed on the right (like a prototype IJ). I wonder if this was a special request by the buyer? I'm definitely going to have to save myself some bondo work and try one of...

    The Pinball Diaries (what did you do today?)

    Haven't updated in a while. Let's see... I drove my staff down to Detroit last Thursday to check out the auto show and we managed to stop in Windsor on the way back for an early dinner. Got to hang out with a couple of PREV members I don't get to see very often. So, a big shout out to Golden...

    Re: VFW Video definitely looks worth a visit!

    VFW Video (Update: game list added)

    Re: VFW Video Now that's a pinball museum!!! I'm always so bummed when I go to PHOF and half the games are unplayable. This looks awesome! What's this 'kickstarter' business you guys are referring too? I'm assumign fundraising... but does donating get you some sort of special access?

    FS "Not Mine" Pinball Machines For Sale

    Depending on the seller, an EMT (eInterac) is the best. No fees and almost instant within Canada. My bank allows a $3K max per day. Most sellers would be happy to accept a two-part payment.

    EM Pinball Machine - What is your favourite?

    I'm really keen to try these Sonic games now. Most EMs I've played really dont do 'bonuses', much less allow you to collect them during play. I'll agree with Barry and Adam that specials are sort of pointless in a home environment... but only the ones that are points related. I don't even pay...

    New Tron Bumper Caps

    I know a lot of guys like to swap out the pop caps on this game. I must be one of the few that actually likes the originals. Blasphemy, I know :o In any case, thanks for sharing Ryan. It must have something to do with the OLED screen making the area brighter... and thereby improving...

    EM Pinball Machine - What is your favourite?

    Oh Rob :FP: I apologize. Volley is good fun. Considering the theme/art does nothing for me and the layout seems almost ridiculous (like shooting fish in a barrel), it has its charm doesn't it? I'll do my best to attempt a response that does the game justice. The easy, simple answer is...

    [FOUND]: WTB - F-14 Tomcat

    Re: WTB - F-14 Tomcat IMPENDING purchase Flying to Boston for an F-14 seems excessive no? Hope you locate one. I find this game a to be a lot of fun and have to play it whenever I come accross one.

    BSD - The one that got away... and came back!

    Yeah, you don't see many up here for some reason. It's not like they're super rare. I guess people are keeping BSD underground ;) I'm actually impressed that you've let one go :lol:

    BSD - The one that got away... and came back!

    It was set up a little on the easy side :) Factory reset... No more 5-ball scores

    iPhone Pinball Machine Leveling App

    Well, firstly... I'm not running a PAPA event, so I agree; the playfield is the way to go. But I always verify quickly off the playfield after doing the main adjustements this way anyway. Good enough for my basement :)

    iPhone Pinball Machine Leveling App

    Easy. Left to right level can be done outside or on the glass. Set the level against the edge of the lockbar for front and then on top of the glass retainer to do the top. Once the game is level side to side, slide out the glass and verify it on the playfield. You can place it between the...

    BSD - The one that got away... and came back!

    Hope to be doing the same soon :D I don't know why... but I find myself constantly playing my HS. It just makes me smile. What more can you ask of a pin?

    BSD - The one that got away... and came back!

    So, after selling my original one a few months back, BSD is back in the lineup! It's a pretty nice unfaded example and should be staying a while. It has a few interesting bugs to sort out though... but nothing crazy. Mostly weird stuff like coin door menu buttons that decide to be difficult...

    Just buy one of these and be done with it. They go on sale for 50% off about twice a year. http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/maste ... tQw77TrKc4
