    Chicago Pinball Expo 2016

    I headed over to the Chicago Pinball Expo for 2016 with a bit of trepidation given how bad I felt it was last year. But this year was pretty rock'n. Lots of new games on display. So without dragging anything out I'll post the big stuff first. Jesery Jack was out in force at the Expo. 2...

    Chicago Pinball Expo 2015

    I popped over to the Chicago Pinball Expo for a bit. Last year was pretty fantastic. The Game Hall had a ton of games to the point where they had an overflow room and the Vendor Hall had a lot of neat stuff there too. But looks like this year is not going to be too good. I should preface by...

    Midwest Gaming Classic 2015 (Image Heavy)

    Over the weekend I attended the Midwest Gaming Classic in Brookfield Wisconsin. It's an odd event as it mashes up pinball and video games.

    Chicago Pinball Expo 2014 (pics)

But in...

    1st Fish Finder always "lite extra ball"?

    It looks like the first time I trigger the Fish Finder in a game it will always go to "lite extra ball". Is this the case on the actual machine or a bug? Seems pretty generous if so.

    What table was this 2?

    Inspired by Lostboys thread where he's looking for a particular table he played as a kid. I had a memory of a pinball table I played that stuck with me but I can't find the table I remember on the Internet Pinball Database.
