where are all the arcades? :(

The centre drop target stopped registering is my excuse, but the game plays nicely overall there.

I was wondering that, do you mean it wasn't dropping? I couldn't see when I hit them whether they had dropped or not unless I lowered my head to look, and I couldn't hear any sound effects either when they were hit.

There's actually a global event running for Bond, so we can see the best worldwide scores for this month

I only got 810m when I was at Level over the weekend, so am already out of the top 100. The centre drop target stopped registering is my excuse, but the game plays nicely overall there.

Theres one on Jaws too. But they've pulled the top score,because Eric Stone (maybe others) discovered a 'bug' having completed all of the bounties

A grotty arcade, sounds like they are going for the nostalgic late 80s early 90s arcade ambiance that I remember. The seaside ones were always grotty back then.

It was a shame as we really wanted to like it as it's so close to us.

Cactus was a strange one as Pins always look quite different to me in the flesh than in pictures/videos. I didn't seem to enjoy it as much as the V-Pin version I used to play, and the tilt was very sensitive on it.

CCC is so much better!

Would rather have CC original and put in a CCC kit.

Or wait until someone cracks the CGC one to play CCC
 
Visited retrodome today, all games working fine except avengers which requires a new board. They’ve just got jaws too 😊

Foo Fighters kicked my ****, I don't think anyone has drained 2 balls faster than I did (not a euphemism). Didn't enjoy the layout at all, the whole upper left playfield felt inaccessible from the main flippers.

Went back to LeVel today, despite what I said previously about Foo Fighters I enjoyed it a lot more this time and no insta-drains. It has grown on me enough to consider owning one.

Mandalorian was OK but the left orbit return frustratingly went SDTM a lot of the time.

The DB5 eject on Bond about 50% of the time went straight into the outlane 🤬. Oh the joys of sited Pinball.

I'm not sure it's a levelling issue, just might need the end of the rail tweaking a little bit. It's the first one I've played so I'm not sure what is considered 'normal' for this game.

From memory fast/slow shots were OK, it is ones in between where the ball diverts off the end enough to go SDTM.

Yep that's normal with Mando, I just set the ball save to longer and got rid of the frustration
