    Hypothetically How Much To Start A Pinball Arcade?

    You would think for it to be viable some limited repair skills would be essential, that way could have a few of the latest machines bought new, and much of the lineup reliable older machines at maybe 1/3rd price of new ones - if there are 20 machines and a couple aren't working at any one time...

    Planet Coaster (with added pinball!)

    Its been down to $11.25 before, which is more than $10 but its close. Its an ideal game for the Steam workshop - I've just checked and there are over 246,000 things in it now. Clever DLC model as well - you can use things in the Steam workshop that use DLC parts, but you can't then save a park...

    Planet Coaster (with added pinball!)

    I bought the base version Christmas 2017 and had a bit a mess around with it. Came up in youtube videos that there is a hard mode that I've never tried, watched https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vW3GXnPYFHQ and part 2 - found out there are 30 parts to that, something like 22 hours - so think I...

    Zen PinCab

    Is that a card reader I can see at 1.25? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IIrqU9cQszk https:/twitter.com/Mel_G_Kirk/status/1118006567914414082 something about it bigger than pinball.

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    Just had a very low score on first game of Jurassic Park table (how did I miss playing that one for so long, bought it ages ago), and was position 28,241 which gives a big clue to how many they have sold. In fact if anyone is in a similar position, play to get as low a score as possible on a...

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    I bet a lot of thought went into picking Fish Tales as the free table - get lots of people into having "just one more game", then after a bit have them see this Medieval Madness thing looks interesting, and then they are on the slippery slope to buying all the new releases. Subtle nudges on the...

    When will the next Pinball Arcade table be released?

    Bit like https://www.lotro.com/en/content/brief-history-time-according-sapience and all the variations of "soon".

    Williams Pinball App Data Collection

    A bit like with some of the major Steam sales when there has been some sort of metagame - the one with the comics to get the red herring badge was interesting, can end up "playing" that, and less of the actual games until the week after!

    Pinball isn't the first thing you think of in regards to immortality, but the expression "it's what he would have wanted" seems to fit here.

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    Just had a quick go on the mobile app and got an advert I hadn't seen before. Company for trading commodities etc., and on the bottom it had 83% of investors lost money - er, don't think I'll bother with that one either!

    Zen & Stern collaboration teaser?

    If that happens just say you've put your hat on again (as in your proverbial hat to keep secrets under that you had when you knew Zen was getting the WMS license).

    When will the next Pinball Arcade table be released?

    Is there anyway to get a ballpark estimate of how much one of those older tables would cost to make? No. of man hours being the most important number. Triple that, divide by likely cost of table and that would need to be a number that they would be likely to sell; any that don't will have been...

    Safecracker Tokens?

    Anyone had disappearing tokens in FX3 Safe Cracker? I was still at 19, tried this weeks tournament and got 1 more. Day after and now I've only got 1 token on the apron.

    BlahCade Weekly Zen Tournament

    Seems to have been a bit of a gap with the tournaments so I've started one. Junk Yard Survival, score boost power-up - see who has been paying attention to the podcast! None of the other tournament threads seem to have been active recently, so hope its OK posting it in this thread.

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    Some of the pricing models do seem nuts. Lord of the Rings Online is a free to play game on PC I've spent about £110 on, but that's in 7 years; almost all on buying content rather than fluff, just paid for more useful things like more bag space and shared storage but none of the cosmetic fluff...

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    3 is a lot less than 10ish - is it just random chance and you've had the odd day like it before, or could they have tweaked something in the app? Can just see it now, back in the mid-90s. Pinball designer to colleague, this would absolutely sound fantastic in a car; replies back, yeah but who...

    Williams Pinball App Discussion

    Best case for collecting things is likely to be even further off for someone completely new to those tables as opposed to someone who has played them on another platform and has at least some idea of what to aim for before starting the grind. Also seems to be some differences in how the tables...
