it's pretty important to be either drinking coffee or alcohol when playing pinball. coffee focuses me somehow and alcohol makes me play all crazy and aggressive.

One time I was guilt-racked by a shady (on my part) weed purchase; me & some folks, desperate, managed to come up with $30 in QUARTERS. I rolled them up and brought them to dude, he was obviously all WTF at the time.

I saw him like 2 weeks later and he was all THK U THK U THK U because he was STILL playing the Jurassic Park pinball game at the pizza place next to his house off that same cache of quarters.

This place I used to play often in my ill-advised rap-metal band had one of these, it actually kind of stank:

jw did you travel back in time and steal my brain from college, because i used to think the same thing. like a pinball game that gave you a donut or a cup of coffee instead of a free game.

u_u --

In November 2005 The Pinball Factory (TPF), based in Melbourne, Australia, announced that they would be producing a new Crocodile Hunter-themed pinball machine under the Bally label. However, with the recent death of Steve Irwin, it was announced that the future of this game has become uncertain.[1]

Diner is the only pinball game i can think of with a coffee cup. You'd shoot the ball into it and the ball would spin around and around. It's at the top of the playfield:

How cool would it be if to unlock espresso shot (once you crossed correct threshold) you had to do all the tasks -- beans dropping down chute, grinding etc

I'm still convinced a Yelp style DB for video games and pinball would be rad!

. The monsters are noted for being extremely aggressive, fast, and unpredictable, frequently breaking the rules of movement established in Namco's official Pac-Man games.

ha ha guys is there a Pac-Man canon now?!?!?!?!

Guys did you ever pick up on my Toshiro Mifune / Pac Man mashup ?

― Catsupppppppppppppp dude ‫茄蕃‪, Monday, 7 May 2007 19:13 (sixteen years ago) link

the arcade near the place in Maine my family always goes to has those classic old baseball pinball cabinets, so awesome. you'd only get one ball per quarter, but if you got 21 runs the light on top would go off and the attendant would give you 100 tix. i used to rule that shit.

FISH TALES OTM, love the rod n' reel trigger

those baseball games are fun too, I thinkn the one I used to play was slightly different but they had one at a dive bar in Norfolk we always used to go to. you'd get a 9 inning game for 50 cents.

they had pinball there too, CYCLONE for a while and later some fem-bot type thing. famous one, I just can't think of the name right now.

You know I don't remember the Stones pinball game playing a song, but there's a lot I don't remember about that time in my life. I spent most of it drunk on beer and shame over being in a rap-metal band.

So I am going to get some kind of iced espresso-based beverage and go kiting in the park. It is decided.

I think I have to stop drinking coffee, it's ruining my stomach lining. it's like the polar ice caps melting and all my polar bears are drowning.

― Yerac, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 00:54 (sixteen years ago) link

cgi polar bears or real ones?

― rrrobyn, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 00:55 (sixteen years ago) link

my cgi stomach lining is melting b/c it is imaginationland
but my real stomach lining is solid for 2 strong coffees/day

― rrrobyn, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 00:57 (sixteen years ago) link

how do we restore stomach lining?

i have played this for over an hour straight:

http://wirelessdigest.typepad.com/photos/uncategorized/gnrpinball.JPG

the multiball is called slash's snake pit and it plays a killer solo.

http://www.tilt.it/pics/flyers/dataeast-sega/guns_n_roses_1994_f_1.jpg

it has an exclusive track on it too:

http://www.pinballhispano.net/pinballworld/images_flyers/guns_n_roses_b.jpg

you cant really read it, but the banner under axl's chin at the bottom reads "APPETITE FOR PINBALL."

i cant remember what its called when a ball rolls in a little alley behind one of your flippers and you're fucked, but that alley has a light that says MICHELLE on it and has a naked chick draped over it. when you lose a ball down that alley it plays the WELL WELL WELL MY MICHELLE line from the chorus.

also: two plungers- one is a gun and the other a rose.

If there was a good pinball machine in my neighborhood I'd ~~get a lot less work done~~ waste time there instead of on ILX

― Hurting 2, Tuesday, 8 May 2007 03:10 (sixteen years ago) link

kevin and other chicago noizes should head to the pinball convention that happens at a hotel by o'hare every fall. $10 entry but totally worth it cause there's all these old machines set to free play.
