    Looney Tunes

    First impressions are very “Rocky & Bullwinkle”. Not a negative but rater lacking compared to releases from the last 10 years.

    Sold Original Medieval Madness

    Well I think this has answered the “has the bottom fallen out of the market?” question😀 10k for something described as a “players condition” game. Guess sort after machines are still going for big bucks. It didn’t exactly hang around for long did it?

    Apparently it's no April Fools, ABBA, PB's next pin.

    Are those stand up targets already misaligned? Never been a big fan of the band but “Ring Ring” seems a bit of an obscure track to base a mode around. Was it in that 90s film?

    BACS - Refunds

    By our age people generally know if they are good at budgeting. Some people simply aren’t and credit cards can get you into a lot of debt very quickly if you don’t clear the balance automatically each month or if your personal circumstances change dramatically. Personally I use them for...

    BACS - Refunds

    Unfortunately the bank is highly unlikely to refund as they have done exactly what you asked them to do. Trying to reverse payment would require the business to agree to send the money back. Credit card linked payments are different as essentially you are using their money which is why you are...

    Concert/gig attending thread.....

    Age is a strange thing. I remember the Wurzel’s back in the late 70s and thinking they were ancient then. Were they really actually only in their 30s?

    Concert/gig attending thread.....

    I’m going to see Slash with the boy in Wembley but have you heard the latest Slash single? Doesn’t exactly fill me with confidence about the gig. I’m hoping it’s not going to end up being 90 mins of blues noodling 😱. Also if anyone out there likes Lacuna Coil I stupidly bought two tickets to...

    Spinal Tap upgraded and price lowered by $2000!

    How did that work out for them? 😉 Poor code = poor sales = ignored machines. Think how many more Walking Dead’s they would have sold if it had had with the revamped code rather than the limp initial version. Tweaks and improvements are one thing but if someone’s first impressions are...

    Spinal Tap upgraded and price lowered by $2000!

    I never understand why any manufacturer releases stuff with really really basic code. First impressions are so important. It’s just shooting yourself in the foot of people are utterly underwhelmed.

    Spinal Tap upgraded and price lowered by $2000!

    I haven’t been following this especially closely but the distributor has thrown me. Is this Andy of Full Throttle/Alien? Or is some else using a very similar name? Also has anyone actually played Spinal Tap? How does it compare to say the early 2000 Sterns such as AP or 24?

    The "How much is this table worth" thread....

    I suspect he’ll struggle at 3.5. At 2.5 it would fly out. 3 seems about right. It’s one of the few older games I’d toy with picking up, just so it could sit next to the other two Elvira titles. I’ve played it a few times and it’s an OK game, not especially exciting though.

    Scam or bargain?

    Now marked as “sold”. No wonder the scammers keep trying.

    Scam or bargain?

    The “free delivery” pretty much shouts scam 😂

    Concert/gig attending thread.....

    I found myself looking for a likely pinhead at the gig. Too many guys in their 50s there 😂 I blend in.🤪 There was a guy standing to the left of me who was an absolute mountain. Must have been easily 5”s taller than me so well on his way to 6’8” plus. Absolutely solid build. Had to feel sorry...

    Hertz Dumping Electric Cars, Buying Petrol - Daily Telegraph

    Regarding the above story hasn’t the guy just been arrested? Presumably for making it all up 😂

    How can you talk camp themes and not think WOZ? Dolly Parton, Rollergames, Queen? Even one of the princesses in MM is a bloke dressed up. It’s a box filled with twinkly lights after all. I doubt there would be many pins left if you wanted to avoid campness. Maybe Hardbody……….

    Rumoured Titles from all manufactures

    Primus are pretty ultra niche aren’t they? 😂 I wonder if there is a market for custom rethemed band themes. I can kind of see 500 hardcore fans preordering a game in advance of them going into production.

    Rumoured Titles from all manufactures

    First thoughts are that The Scorpions are way too niche to gain much traction but I guess they are bigger than say Rob Zombie. Sterns titles are an absolute yawn fest with the possible exception of a released Metallica. Most interesting game titles are via Spooky but I’d query how well they...

    Licensing laws

    I think last night was the first time I’ve never ever tipped. They basically lost just under £20 as a results of their decision (+ the drink). In hindsight £20 seems quite a lot for service for 4 pizzas and and a bottle of wine.
