    Best vertical monitor size?

    It's an immersion thing. If you've ever played on a video pinball cab, it's amazing how quickly your mind adjusts to thinking it's real. I have my Micro Cab with real flipper buttons, plunger, and correct height as I'm standing, and it's interesting how your play changes. I'm only tilting my...

    List any Zaccaria Pinball bugs/issues you still run into on PC

    It was wildly expensive. I think in today dollars it would have cost upwards of $800. Scary part is, it was still cheaper than the NEO GEO console, which touted having the exact same games and code that were found in the arcade. That was the one system my buddy couldn't justify buying, but...

    Let's Guess What The Zen Enhancements Will Be!

    With the overwhelmingly positive feedback we've been giving Zen regarding both the boxer in CP and the burglar in SC, I suspect the enhancements will only get better. Regarding Monster Bash, those full figure toys could really come to life for sure. Imagine what they'd do with some of the modern...

    Best vertical monitor size?

    Huh? What? Someone looking to make a purchase? I'll have pricing soon, I swear! And I've already got one person seriously interested, so if I could line up at least 4 more it would help on cost.

    100%... All Playstation Pinball Games!

    Yoku's Island Express is a lot of fun, and there are actual pinball sections in it. I'm talking plunger lanes, outlanes, bumpers, slingshots, the works. Yes, it is more of an exploration game that uses pinball mechanics for navigation, but I wouldn't have 100% it if it weren't for the pinball...

    Best vertical monitor size?

    Paying attention because I eventually want a monitor I can rotate too.

    This thread is going sideways on a tangent, but it's such a fun tangent! If you see a Hercules, you simply have to play it. It won't translate in any other form, and though it functions like crap, it's still an experience. Same goes for Orbitor 1, which is straight up bonkers and by the 3rd...

    Let's Guess What The Zen Enhancements Will Be!

    If they don't do tornadoes in place of the spinning discs on Whirlwind, they're doing it wrong.

    Guide to get the Valueless Extraball wizard goal on TX Sector

    2 balls in the plunger lane is in all seriousness the dumbest goal FarSight ever came up with, as there is no reason why you would ever do that in real life. It doesn’t show you are a pinball wizard, it shows you’re an idiot more interested in tricks than points!

    The only console I had as a kid was an Odyssey 2. My parents got it at a timeshare sales pitch. It came with one cartridge with 3 games on it, and that was it. Unfortunately it was a year after any store was still selling stuff for that console so it was DOA. It wasn’t until Christmas of 1998...

    Let's Guess What The Zen Enhancements Will Be!

    We've got our table guessing threads, but what we don't have is a thread in which to guess what visual enhancements Zen might do for future tables. Now that we have a good idea of the sorts of things they might do, let's speculate! To start, I'm gonna look at the remaining non-licensed DMD...

    Could TPA benefit from allowing users to adjust the table angle?

    They have their own forum and would be able to answer that question much better! To start though, you’ll need to download Visual Pinball.

    Williams' Collection Volume 4 guesses

    I never said that prior to visiting Australia in 2002, I say it all the time now! So much better than saying “no problem” like is common here.

    Williams Volume 3 *OFFICIAL* Game play thread

    Contact support. I believe a few others had something similar happen and support took care of them.

    Williams' Collection Volume 4 guesses

    No worries! When you've been on this forum as long as I have, you realize that all new members go through similar cycles of things that need repeating :D

    Could TPA benefit from allowing users to adjust the table angle?

    Yep, I was just taking a look at Creature on iOS, and that left ramp is silly with how it sucks up any ball that even comes close to it! This after them making a big deal about making (and generally succeeding) it tougher in a new tuning pass on Steam. That particular term, tuning, was always a...

    Williams' Collection Volume 4 guesses

    Just to expand on what trash80 (I love that btw, TRS-80's reference!) said... The way it was explained to me was that IP holders want all the attention on their license, they don't want to share. This is why you get the 'Universal' pack of Back to the Future/Jaws/ET, or the Fox 'Balls of Fury'...

    Williams' Collection Volume 4 guesses

    The thing is, all non licensed DMD were already done in TPA, which leaves licensed tables ( of which will not be part of a regular Volume pack) and SS/alpha numerics, of which we haven’t seen any sign of yet and it’d be unlikely they’d start without doing one of the more popular titles (which...

    Could TPA benefit from allowing users to adjust the table angle?

    I think some of the floatiness of TPA in comparison to Zen Williams physics is that there is no actual ball spin with TPA (despite what you can visually see the ball doing). That means the ball is essentially gliding over the surface, like on ice. Zen on the other hand has actual ball spin and...
