[QUOTE="Slam23, post: 248334, member: 896"] The first pinball I played I can't remember, I must have been 6 or something like that. I always accompanied my father when we went shopping for groceries. In the same building where the supermarket was, there was also a small café which had a pinball machine. I was too small to see the playfield and control the buttons at the same time, so my father placed me in the shopping cart. This would have been in the late seventies but I never found out which pinball it was. The next one I do remember was SW from Data East in my college days, followed by Indiana Jones, Terminator 2, Black Rose, TAF and TZ. So you could say that I was spoilt right from the bat...I always held a soft spot for early '90's DMD-style pins from there on after. Wow, the first "Well of Souls" on IJ, that was one of my best memories, the giddy feeling of being overwhelmed by a six-ball MB. Sadly I didn't "get" TAF and TZ, those were not very familiar licenses in the Netherlands back then, and they were probably a bit complex. I had to be careful with my coins, because it was my college allowance. I didn't play those two that much because of that. It was TPA that also got me into other era's. [/QUOTE]
