    What's your favourite table you know will never come to TPA?

    The wonderful widebody that is Paragon

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    They made CBW—when they did—because they couldn't make a non-Gottlieb table. It's that simple. I don't recall anyone suggesting that EBD was planned over CBW. A lot of posters here insisted that EBD was a done deal, in general. This was assumed true to the point that several posters stated they...

    The Arcade in Brighton, Michigan

    Made the hour drive to Brighton and played a couple of hours of pinball (and one game of Dig Dug to burn off the tale end of my tokens.) I played my best on Attack from Mars, and my wife kicked my butt soundly in three games of Cirqus Voltaire. Most pins are LED equipped and $1 per credit, with...

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    Dokken, FB's popularity is not in question. It's representation of what would sell in TPA is. Someone advocating within these forums is much more likely to actually make a purchase from FS (and less likely to pirate, I dare say.) These forums also represent people of all ages. The demographics...

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    Do you seriously think that FB posters represent the public at large, let alone the pinball public? This forum, dedicated to TPA, is clearly more representative of what will sell.

    Table Pack #27 speculation

    This. I'd be quite happy with Embryon, too. Centaur was a pleasant surprise for many TPA players. Old school is a necessary part of the stated mission of TPA.

    Was nudging always considered part of the game?

    Yes, nudging was always part of the game. I don't understand the suggestion of "house rules". Much of the skill of pinball comes from nudging. It's simply not pinball without nudging.

    Season 3 pack removed from all platforms!

    You're killing me, night. I'll just go back to playing the PC version of TPA on my Mac.

    BK2K Magna Save Button On Mac

    Seriously, why is this not in the in-game instructions?! This straight port from iOS nonsense is silly.

    The On-Going "What has FarSight said about ___ table?" List Thread

    He's referring, generically, to virtual pinball on a PC. There was a '90s version of EBD available for both Mac & PC.

    Which table did you first beat the Wizard goals on? Why that table?

    Gorgar, because I played it a whole lot in the early '80s. I'm not a completist when it comes to achievements, so there are some tables that I will never get all of the goals. For example, I enjoy TOTAN, but won't see Harem Multiball unless it happens by chance. If one of the goals for a table...

    Best platform to play TPA ?

    The OP clearly asked: "Which platform of TPA has the best in Sound and GFX?" Then OP then proceeded to answer their own question: "a high end PC or PS4" Obviously, mobile platforms don't have the horsepower of consoles and PCs.

    If you could pick 3 tables to appear in TPA b4 FS closes its doors what would they be

    SimpSINs sounds like it has to be in After Dark. :cool: Glad to see the continuing clamor for LOTR.

    If you could pick 3 tables to appear in TPA b4 FS closes its doors what would they be

    1. Paragon 2. Eight Ball Deluxe 3. Lord of the Rings 4. Joker Poker 5. Spirit of 76 I guess it's a good thing that Visual Pinball exists, since most of these will never be in TPA.

    VP - Monster Bash Update

    FYI: I sometimes play TPA on a Mac, and that is pretty much exactly how bad the graphics are.

    HighSpeed by Williams

    Apparently, an annoying inside joke.

    Request what are the chances of seeing INDIANAPOLIS 500 on TPA?

    A stellar table, but it did not do well in polls on this site.

    High CPU and settings?

    It is a pitiful iOS port. That would be what is wrong.

    Apple Delay Frustration (Derailed by Driveway Cheese after Post # 81)

    Trip Report: Pinball Pete's in Ann Arbor

    Marvin's pins are always well maintained. I can't wait to see the new arcade in Brighton (half-way between Detroit and Lansing, on I-96, for those not familiar with Michigan.) Here's a Pinside thread on The Arcade...
