    Table Pack 26 Announcement?

    Well the same thing happens in Diner, some people's main strategy is to loop the left ramp over and over until they maximize the dine-time jackpot value. Also aren't the cows fencing against pirates or stampeding or getting kidnapped by Martians or something? They'd never come home at that rate :)

    Looking for more pinball locations - NJ, MD, Washington, D.C.

    So on the way to DC my parents made a deal for me to head to the Volleyball House to play pinball. Sadly I only have 1/2 an hour to play, so I'm going to make the most of my time playing Corvette, Robocop, Baywatch, Demolition Man, and High Speed.

    DotMation disclaimer?

    So I noticed on several 1992 Williams titles one of the displays during the attract mode (usually after the title of the game has been shown) says "in DotMation" and has many titles flipping to reveal the word DotMation. What I'm confused about is why some titles have this little ident and some...

    Battle the Power - Submit Your Tough Questions for the BlahCade Podcast #7...no, #8!

    How could Data East machines be emulated and are they as difficult to emulate as the Whitestar ROMs (ie Ripley's)?

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    Cyclone was on the poll and will most likely be released in Season 4. FarSight doesn't look interested into remaking Comet or Hurricane though.

    Junkyard opinions?

    Barry Oursler seems to have been the "master of story" for the time being. He created Doctor Who, which has a huge one a la the TV serials; Popeye Saves The Earth, a large story which was inspired by Python's crazy mind; WHO dunnit, which is frequently considered the best narrative pin of all...

    Who owns the "multiball" trademark?

    Multiball was actually used in early ROMs of Lethal Weapon 3 before the trademark issue, it was replaced with Tri-Ball in later ROMs. The last game with the Tri-Ball mention was Jurassic Park, it was then referred to as multiball in every Data East / SEGA / Stern game prior starting with I think...

    What table was this 2?

    Space Station? There's a hole at the upper playfield that often makes the ball swirl around (no magnet though), there's planets on it, there is a "space station" diverter that spins. Hope this helps :)

    ? about table overviews

    So I noticed playing Pinball Arcade tonight that so many tables had different types of "views over the table" in the main menu screen. What I noticed was this: All tables in Season 1 except for Tales of the Arabian Nights and Scared Stiff (the only two that have received recent updates) feature...

    What table has been the biggest letdown/surprise on TPA?

    Surprise: Flight 2000 - Interesting table choice (#206 on the Pinside top 300) but great! Multiball is cool and while lacking rules it's still fun for a spin Letdown: Scared Stiff (for a while) - So easy it gets boring. Thankfully a recent tuning update with the Fish Tales release makes it...

    I've noticed a pattern with the Multiball Restart quotes...

    Nothing else... I'm pretty sure Bud makes a reference to The Power of the Addams Family during one of the modes though
