[QUOTE="iamoneagain, post: 73149, member: 1352"] I just had a business trip up in Seattle but didn't get a chance to go the Museum because of their hours. I'm more of fan of the late 80's/early 90's machine though, so Shorty's was perfect for me (other than price). Stayed only 2 blocks away. Got to try several games I've only played on Pinball Arcade like Theater of Magic, Medieval Madness, and Monster Bash. I was actually pretty good at the first two right away but Monster was way too dark and couldn't tell what I was doing. Really enjoyed Theater. Now I wish they could figure out ball spin on Pinball Arcade because it adds a lot to the game. Sometimes it would seem like the ball would just stick to the flippers, which was so nice for control. I also got to check out the Adam's Family machine and it was a lot of fun. Lots to do and not as cluttered as Twilight Zone. So hope they can eventual bring that one over. Also played Championship Pub, which I think I've heard talk of it being an upcoming game. That was pretty fun and would love to have unlimited time with it to get deeper into the game. Took me awhile and few bucks to make any progress. Funny is I used to live in Seattle and never made it to Shorty's but went everyday on my short visit there. I'm now down in San Diego and the thing I miss the most is the annual NW Pinball Expo. I would play for hours each day and would go the whole weekend . Early Friday's were the best since it wasn't crowed yet and had no lines for any of the games. I see they are moving to Tacoma this year. So far I haven't even seen any Expos in all of Southern California. I thought for sure LA would have one. Think they at least have a place similar to Shorty's with a lot of machines on hand. I also have access to the Pinball Museum in Vegas, but that's a bit of drive. Think in San Diego there a lots of machine but it's one or two at each place scattered through out the city. [/QUOTE]
