Our aircon was a welcome relief in the main bar this week though it struggled in the arcade room!

As British summer returns to its usual sunshine and showers a reminder that the whole venue is open 11am to 1130pm EVERY day

Fault ridden Dirty Harry has gone off for some TLC , Demoman has gone from mouldy scrapheap to NEARLY playable after an hour of Paul Brookfield magic. Getaway is back off loan and more games are due to be squeezed in soon.

Most popular pins last week

1. Deadpool
2. Star Trek TNG
3. Munsters
4. Family Guy
5. Iron Maiden

After Getaway came back (that's that police chase one nobody has ever heard of these days LOL) to join High Speed , thanks to Andy Mania the first two Black Knight games are back together. Just a small matter now of sorting coin door , fitting a new plunger and PINLED display and we are good to go.

 

[steve brum]

12 weeks in and thought I'd share the top ten most popular (note Munsters unlike the others was NOT there for first 4 weeks)

1. STAR TREK TNG
2. DEADPOOL
3. IRON MAIDEN
4. MUNSTERS
5. ATTACK FROM MARS
6. BATMAN 66
7. AC/DC
8. ADDAMS FAMILY
9. FAMILY GUY
10. LORD OF THE RINGS

 

[replicas]

Interesting.

 

[steve brum]

Well BK2K works bar the coin handling stuff
Ive experimented with "ligtning white" pinleds which look different but on reflection l should have gone yellow!

 

[PBrookfield]

The actual display itself looks better in person - the photo makes it look stupidly low contrast - though even in person it's not a much better fit for BK2K...

Would look great in Rollergames, BTTF, Phantom of the Opera...?

 

[steve brum]

Bttf has orange pinleds so we can try a swap.

 

[steve brum]

Dave Rolfe's KISS now has a new home where it can be enjoyed by the public. Some niggles with the lamps and sound to sort out but hey the coin mech works! Now need a Stern one to put next to it.

 

[steve brum]

All ready for the weekend!

PS
despite being lovely and cool in the main bar , our AIRCON cant cope with a lot of arcade machines either so is boosted by fans!

 

[Pick Holder]

All ready for the weekend!

Looks great - does this mean the Aersomith topper is for sale yet?

 

[steve brum]

Was removed for pinfest as too tall for streaming rig. Going back on machine shortly

 

[steve brum]

Club and arcade is open today and every day from 11am to 1130pm

Deadpool has overtaken ST TNG as "king of the pins" but the air hockey table beats everything (and of course is the cheapest piece of equipment in the room!)

Nice of @johnwhitfield to come and take a pic for you

 

[steve brum]

We couldnt budget for the Alien pin so got the next best thing.

Game Over man.. Game Over

 

[stevebm1]

probably easier to get parts for than an alien pin!

 

[steve brum]

next week we hit 6 months and at last the arcade is free of clutter

Andy Mania has done a sterling job getting games up to speed and will be tackling the oldies soon

he has left Starship Troopers for Paul Brookfield to win his battle with. Bloody Sega!

thanks to Terry Suillivan for overhauling Dirty Harry. Very challenging game!

keen to have the classic line up and running in time for the Xmas Cracker

a few games are switched off simply as they cannot take coins and no other reason

finding it harder to find site ready video games than pins. you would think there would be warehouses full of them!

Munsters and JP vying to be the most popular pin but theme is paramount here. Thunderbirds has out performed the so called top 5 since day one

 

[kevlar]

Top job Steve, can't wait for next visit. Gutted I can't make the cracker, I'm out of the country.

 

[PBrookfield]

That Starship Troopers is bloody mental. Lack of (known working...) spare Whitestar parts makes for a miserable time solving issues.

 

[replicas]

You're missing a Flash Gordon in that classics line up.

 

[steve brum]

The classic line up will be quite fluid as there are quite a few older games "in the wings"

 

[steve brum]

The Addams Chair has now left the buidling

Thanks again to Mooseman for the loan

Made the halloween events go with a buzz

Thanks for organising the comp on the Sunday. Have the WPPR points been submitted for that yet?
