I won't quote your epic post and comment in-line, shutyertrap, but the Sega game you mentioned that rotated is a G-LOC 360.It's basically the original G-LOC plane shooter encased in a similar contraption to those human gyroscope attractions you see around the place. The unit runs off three-phase power, it takes so much juice to run. Playing the game is quite interesting. There is an input lag between when you activate the flight stick to when the motors kick in and turn the gyroscope mechanism. So you can be half way through a turn and all of a sudden the machine starts turning you left when you've finished your left turn and are now into your right turn. Very off-putting.Anyway, onto the pinballs. What an *epic* collection of pinballs this guy has. Some real rarities. What a joy it would be to play Kingpin IRL. I played it on pinMAME plenty of times, but IRL would be a great experience. Joust reminds me of Alvin G Soccerball, except Soccerball had this switch system on the flippers that triggered them automatically. So you could have a one person game against the CPU.
