My backup to not finding a BK2000.... If you got a Congo you fancy letting go, give me a shout, thanks. Cash on pickup and will travel for the right one.
Wanted Congo

- Start date
Congo is a real fun game, i don't understand why it's not a top title. Great to look at, loads to do, a volcano that fires out balls, and Tim Curry. Tim Curry should be a megastar, the size of Jack Nicholson. it's a mystery to me why he isn't.
i really really hope Congos don't turn out to be the game people rip into to make a MM, as i think they're probably about the same amount of fun. kill NBA instead, it's sh_ite!

I want one for what it is, although after a recent message it may be out of my budget ! I also thought it wasn't that popular, a bit like a Junk Yard WPC95... Is is seriously £2K plus for a nice one these days?
If my Congo was in half-decent condition I would have saved it and waited for something else, but to be honest it's as rough as a badgers bum. Playfield wear, broken plastics, worn ball guides etc. and most of these are no longer available.
I agree it's is a good game to play though!

Congo is fun ! Great playfield layout, my only criticism would be perhaps the slightly linear nature of the gameplay. The Volcano erupting out balls is AWESOME. Suffers from the all too common 'sh*t movie' theme that Williams specialised in during the 90s ...which prob has kept the value down over the years.
I sold my Congo to Matt Vince last summer for £1050 I believe, or something like that. Including a near mint spare pf. I should think £1200 would be top money now.

Thanks, back to what I originally thought. Felt like I was talking to Pinball Paradise earlier.....
