Oh my goodness, I'm sorry, I coughed into the mic. You gonna talk or you gonna fish? So we're gonna play some Alien Star. The reason I'm playing Alien Star right now... Hello, welcome MPT3K, I forgot to do my whole intro. I'm playing Alien Star. I'm testing out some of my equipment and some new stuff. because tomorrow we will be streaming live from Twitch. Actual Twitch offices at Flynn's Arcade. They have an arcade there called Flynn's Arcade. I'm lucky enough to be invited there. Wait, are you streaming right now? Yes, Audrey, I'm streaming right now. And you're supposed to talk in the chat, not in Facebook Messenger. I'm testing equipment for the Twitch stream tomorrow, which you will be on, Audrey. And also Matt Henry and Matt from Twitch. So I need to make sure that I have all of my equipment and everything is ready. So I came here to Freegal Watch to set up to see what I forgot to bring. And while I'm here, I'm going to play the darkest game ever created, but the coolest game ever created. In my opinion. Which is Alien Star. This game kicks ass. This game is really fun. It also kicks my ass. Sorry, I haven't eaten today. Why would you show me when I'm not there? Audrey, get used to not being here, okay? No, that wasn't a diss. That was just me being... She knows what I mean. Alright. Let's play some Alien Star. Also, I have RIP commands in the chat. Little bubble gum. I need shit in the background while I pack, so this is good. Now I can heckle you. Or if you type exclamation point RIP, you'll see one of the characters at the bottom of the screen. RIP! How about that? They'll make fun of me. Not with capitals, but I think it worked. Lowercase, R-I-F-F. Exclamation point, or they say bang, R-I-F-F. There you go. Oh, I have to set, okay, thank you for, oh no, it actually worked. The RIF commands, you know what, I have to change, thank you for doing that, I have to change the RIF commands to be accessible by everyone. Right now, they're only accessible by people I define. I'm going to open it up so everyone can do it. That's why I'm doing this, to iron out the bugs. That's not really a bug. It's just that I've got to get a way to keep... You know, if we get hundreds of people watching tomorrow, I don't want everyone typing RIF. And I also have to ask George, don't panic flip, a question about the color command because it's kind of not working and I think I kind of know why. I also have to make sure to ask his permission and let him know that we're streaming tomorrow so that his systems are up so when I want to use these commands they actually work. All right. All right, Audrey, try it again. The riff command should work. So this works. See? Ha, ha, ha. No, this is like me chatting to you in Jackbox. Someone looks like someone's got a case of the Mondays. Yeah. I mean, me. All right, let's see how well I do. You remember playing this last night, Audrey? Well, this is the real deal. It plays very much like the virtual one. Ah, crap. The object of the game is to hit all the alien targets right here. The alien targets will light multiball here in the scoop. the multiple multiplier is set by the spinner which is random so you I hit 5x now I need to keep it at 5x and I'm not gonna bother right now because I haven't even started any alien targets yet oh crap okay here we go anytime I have a chance to do a spin I'm gonna do a spin but another neat thing thing about the spinner is that if you hit this in lane right here that spinner gets lit for 10,000 per spin. It's usually lit only for 1,000 per spin. And it only gives you a couple of seconds to do it. Oh! I'm going to keep going for my thousands because A, I want to practice that shot. B, it's kind of like good points. If you can... Ah. Woo! All right, let's see. I like your pinball t-shirt. That's cute. Yes, it's Harry Potter pinball wizard. The play field is so open, so that's nice. Yeah, it's pretty open. There's those randomizer pop bumpers down there a little. Oh, I got it. Okay, so I spelled alien. Now what I want to do... Oh, boy, that was dangerous. Now what I want to do is I want to... This is Lucha 5X. I want to hit that scoop. And I don't think I can post pass. Okay, here we go. Oh, dang it. Bounce! All right, ball one. That's not too bad. 153. Okay, so that resets to two, so I have to hit that spinner again. But I keep my lock lit. There's only two balls in this game, so there's only a two-ball multiball. What I want to do right now is hit that spinner, and I can sneak up there like that. I'll take 3x. I'll take, no, well, I got another shot at it. 5x, baby. I didn't mean to call you baby. I don't know if we're that familiar with each other. Nice, your classic flip move. Got it. All right, so now the play field is 5x. If I can hit this spinner after hitting this with all the balls on the table, this becomes what? 500,000 per spin. Oh, my God. No, 50,000 per spin because I can't do math. Okay, here we go, here we go, here we go. The big problem is when this ball comes out, it usually likes to drain right down the right. Come on, there we go. One switch hit, boom. Oh, that's a good sign. Oh, crap. That's a good sign. That's good. So what is that? Oh, everybody has a bolt. Huh. Huh. I got to teach you how to clip. I'm going to ruin the belt. Man, I just drained on, like, amazing ball. Their belt could kush my felt. Alright. I gotta try and break a million on this game though. What's up, D'Amisco? Welcome to the stream, buddy. You streaming 20 feet away from me right now. I challenge you to a duel. Here we go. Now about those lanes at the top. Those lanes... Nice. Those lanes at the top, you have to spell star. S-T-A-R. First. Color green. I like your color green. What's a clip? It's a Twitch clip. Basically, if you're signing on Twitch, down in the bottom, I think the bottom this corner of the thing there's a little clapboard if you, if something happens on Twitch and you liked it, right wait like three seconds and then hit that clapboard, it'll bring up another window that allows you to make what's called a clip of that moment which is kind of cool anyway those star targets you have to light, oh Shia you have oh no so if you can light S-T-A-R if you can light S-T-A-R then you can start to collect the bonuses that are behind them so it's collect bonus on the S advance multiplier on the T hold bonus on the A and the big one is extra ball on the R. All right, 687, not too shabby. I'll challenge you. That's way too much effort. Oh, I barely know how to use Gmail. It's so complicated. And Kid Chris L already did the clip. I wasn't expecting someone who actually knew how to clip to actually call me on that and actually clip that. But thank you for that, because that's going to look stupid. It's a Sunday. It's a rainy, lazy Sunday. I'm preparing for my Twitch stream tomorrow. Make sure to tune into my Twitch stream tomorrow at 5 p.m. Pacific time from Twitch. They have a Game of Thrones premium there, and they're inviting me up to play it and stream it. They have an internal arcade called Flynn's Arcade over at Twitch. where they have a bunch of things. And they have a Game of Thrones. So I'll be up there. I'll be asking Twitch employees to come and play pinball with me. Little Bubblegum will be there in person and online. Winter's coming. In fact, it's already here. Yeah, so we'll see how many Twitch employees we can get to pull in to play pinball. We'll see how many There's one particular Twitch employee Who I know is already good at it So He's part of the San Francisco Pinball League So that's kind of not fair Oh Okay I got the AST I got all STAR Is that the extra ball? No that's not the extra ball Darn Oh the extra ball is lit Oh, I should get it up there. Whoa, that was close. Oh, and I got multiball lit. That's bonus multiplier, but it didn't hit the target. It just grazed off the surface. All right, I'm at 3x. I'm going to go for the multiball. Let's go for the multiball, man. Let's do that again. Do it. Watch this little bastard here. Ah! Ah, murder me. This is why I love slash hate this game, because there's so much potential. Oh, we should get pinball gloves to wear. On just one hand. Yes, my pinball glove will have glitter on it. It'll be just like that guy. What's his name? Michael something. Oh man, look at this. Get that R. Get that R. Let's finish it. Let's finish Star early. Not yet. Not yet. Not yet. Okay, here we go. Give me that R. Yeah! Give me something else. Let me collect something else. Guys, on mpt3k you can type something called a RIF command, or you can do a color command. Audrey can show you. If you type RIF, one of the robots at the bottom of the screen will make fun of me or say something not very nice. There's my 10K right there. Can I get it? Can I get it? No, I didn't get it. Or if you type color, you can change the color of not only the words in Mystery Pinball Theater, but the little background of the event list. Just some stuff to keep it interactive and fun. Ah yeah I got like 30 more minutes Okay, ball two. Oh my god, let's do this. Come on. How's everybody's Thanksgiving been? I did Thanksgiving yesterday. From now on, we don't do Thanksgiving on Thursday. We do it on Saturday. And it was so nice doing it on Saturday because I ran out of brown sugar. I went to the store and got more because it was open. Win. Here we go. 10K. Oh. Sneaking. Ah. So did you see how that blue light on the end? Oh, here we go. 10K. No. No. I'm like a big freaking baby when I play this game. What do we got? All right, on Wednesdays, we wear pink. Why? Why are we wearing pink? Audrey, why are we playing pink? Hey, what's up, Das? I know. Das is here, everybody. I think it. Das is here. I thought it was a shot. Das is working, though. So he's struck. He's sad because he can't play with me right now. What's that term? Barely working? Barely. Ah. Dude, you should have seen this amazing. I'm not going to lie. Nothing I did right now was amazing at all. I saw something I clicked. Yeah? I can't hear anything on the screen. I can just watch it. Das is going to play one. Go. Straight up? Yeah. All right. Let's go. I haven't played in a while. Drop targets. spinner lock that's it right oh oh it would have come back all right this one had a good bounce there bad bait you can get it two ball game all right accidental spin oh there it is as i said i was ready for Oh, it did light up, just not immediately. We need some drop targets. Oh, again! All right, there's a trick you know now. I'm a quick remember myself so it's like, I love playing this kind of stuff. I love playing. My friend Manu, he's the one who puts it on. Yeah, he told me to come back here and check it out. He's like the host for that. It's amazing. Yeah, it works great. These lights make it so look good on stream. The lighting is so difficult. No tilt though. Maybe I tilt it. Oh wow, that was quick. I did learn to bounce and then it happened twice. Twice. Well, that was a quick game. It happens. You guys want to play that one? Dude, I'd be good. Let's go. It's a freestyle stream. I just played soft team. What's your name, my friend? My name is Joshua. Joshua, nice to meet you. Michael. Michael, nice to meet you, Michael. All right, all right. Here we go. Ooh. All right, all right, all right. Let's see the... Oh. Oh, this ain't some average pinball machine. This is... Oh. Absolutely. One of the things that I'm always worried about is like, oh, I don't want to tilt the machine. That's like what you're not supposed to do. Oh, come on, come on. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, no, one of the most difficult things to me is like the feeling of, I don't want to hurt this. This is like a piece of technology, you know? I don't want to shake it around. And then I see people going, jerking the thing around. It's terrifying to me. And I see people getting angry at pinball machines. I'm like, it did nothing to you. What are you... Why would you hurt the thing? He's a Twitch streamer. Yeah, yo, what's up, guys? So you know how this works. Exactly, exactly. Tell everybody what your channel is. My name is Joshua. My Twitch channel is Nuparu. N-U-P-A-W-R-U. I love streaming variety and stuff. And I came out to the Free Gold Watch today because I'm here in San Francisco just for a weekend trip with my boy Michael. And let me tell you, it is here. My boy Michael right here. He's fantastic. So guys, come out to the Free Gold Watch if you're ever in San Francisco. Honestly, it's fantastic. There is such an incredible selection of games. Like, bro, they even have pirated ROMs and stuff. Like, dude. I mean, they have 100% legit main cabinets. fantastic stuff. Oh my god, what are you doing? I'm doing my best. I'm failing, though. Oh my goodness. They have great stuff here. Oh my goodness. You know you're playing all three players of a three-player game, right? Three-player game. Oh my goodness. Yeah, he did say, like, oh yeah, three, three. That should be enough time for my break, and I'm like, okay. I'll take it, I'll take it. Okay, oh, come on. I want to try and get the last letter. Come on, come on. Oh, is that a D.Va hat? Yeah. Oh my goodness. Too bad she got nerfed all the hell, but hey, I still love her. Yeah, she said, nerf this, and then it happens. Yeah. Oh, okay, okay. Oh, come on, I just want the last one. My son and I play a ton of Overwatch. Awesome, awesome. Yep, always trying to shout him out. He needs to stream more. Michael, stream more. Michael, stream more. Exactly, see? We have to teach him. Exactly, everyone, just tell him, just tell him, oh! Hey, easy, easy, easy. It bounces off that all the time. Oh my goodness, I was terrified. And then it happened twice in a row. He's just being nice. That has never happened in the history of pinball. Exactly, never has happened. Oh my goodness, I played the two-player soccer pinball game with Michael, and let me tell you, that is like the coolest concept I've ever seen. pretty near two players in ball at the has to happen more often on this day i think it happened twice twice in history a little more than okay it was a little bit of a doubt challenger all-time but there's no that is exactly i mean it's the same concept but actually depending on fall right away somebody else but i don't know Yeah, yeah, on that third point. If you haven't heard of it, I don't remember the name. It might be challenging, but the place was actually flat, but it was just based in one player's favorite beach as well. Oh, wow. It literally means menopause against the whole. I've seen it on the street once. Dude, I love that. We were like, that's cool. That's the most physical thing that's ever happened. Dude, we first found this place because we were going to go to the pinball museum. Arcade museum in Alameda. Yeah, we were going to go to Alameda before. And then I was like, hey, Google, pinball arcade place is near me. And then I came up with Free Gold Watch. And then we're like, are we going? I guess we are. So we came. We've been coming every time since. It's so good. There's always like 50-something machines here. Yeah. Do not hear at least once a week. I've lived in the neighborhood for five years and I've never seen this place. I know. We've been open every day for 10 years. I'm going to finish this up. Oh my goodness. Questions, questions, questions. Yeah, that's the main thing. That's the arcade kind of grew into that. Oh, I see. I see. It's growing around really into pinball. Yeah, okay. That would love to be in terms of like, I can put some games into it. Ten, ten. Exactly. I don't do games anymore in my business. And then you make a collection of all these things. Everything terra, it's like terraforming from the alameda. So, from the Alameda Pinball Museum. Yeah. I know you know. I haven't. It used to be the office. I can turn this into six more pinball games. You can turn this into a pinball game. I can turn this into a pinball game. I can turn this into a pinball game. Exactly. And the Valley Museum showed it there. The history is really nice. It's a small community. Absolutely. It's a small thing. Just so my fellow Twitch streamers here know, Monday I'm streaming from Twitch. From Flynn's Arcade. From their office. What time is that? That's 5 to 7 p.m. Pacific time. We'll be playing Game of Thrones Premium. Ooh. Okay. But yeah, one of the guys who's in the lead here works at Twitch, so he arranged it. Oh, okay. We're going to try and get as many Twitch employees to play pinball as we can. There's all different communities that I never knew about. At some point I was like, oh, there must be a video game community for this game, this game. And then I come here and it's like 50 people here right now playing pinball. Playing pinball. And loving it. And it's like, oh my goodness, this is where to be. Because I've always loved pinball. You know what's funny? It's like a relatively small community. It's a very small community on Twitch, a pinball stream. It's like the biggest pinball streamer, his name is Deadflip. And he usually gets about 100 to 150 viewers concurrently. Meanwhile, you'll kick over to, I don't know. Anything else. Overwatch, even if there's no league, there's like 10,000 people watching. Exactly, exactly. But we still, you know, we still, I love doing this because I love playing pinball, and I love meeting people. Absolutely. And I love getting my, come on, kick my butt. You versus me, you versus me, kick my butt. The other cool thing I've learned, I'm not very knowledgeable about Twitch, except for doing it with you, and then kind of investigating, like, what's happening? Why is someone 20,000 people? I think even with pinball, it's like, maybe it's not the time, but people watch the videos a lot. Yeah, it was. Because it's very instructive to watch videos. Like, I've been watching the 2019 Pinbird finals today. When you're watching someone play, it teaches you stuff, whether you're thinking about it or not. Because you're playing without having to be the one in control. You're like, why did he do that? It just takes the pressure off. You learn a lot. Preach! And I watched everyone we play with. It's fun to watch it back. It's insane. One of the craziest things was learning... Alien Star Shabakow! Go ahead. One of the great things... Can't play pinball. What a wax. I distract myself more than you can. Waxy wax. See all ping everyone to check out the stream. Oh! Dude, the outlines on this are so brutal. There's like basically no way to shake it out. There's no adjustment. That's just how they're designed. So it's accuracy. I'm getting seven. Give me a second. Just type in pinball and I should find it, yeah? Who's out there? All right, let's check. In DOS we trust. What about... The arcade. Metroid pinball. Oh, yeah. It's a guy building a Metroid pinball machine. I see that. Okay. Yeah. Wheat Sandman. Which one? MPE? Rebuilding TNA. All right. It's happening? What? Holy smokes! So I've also played virtual pinball. I built a cabinet in my house. That's when I started Twitch streaming. I was setting up this rig, but I was using my cabinet for sizing. And I just went on Twitch and all of a sudden I'm doing it now. Exactly. Chances are out. What are we doing? We have no progress. It's a different rig than this. It's the same physical hyping concept. Oh, no! Das is letting me come in here. The ATM's out of order. I blame the ATM! I was in the zone until I had to go tell them. Sorry, man. Hey, Das, those color commands are a little janky right now. The color commands just... I'm talking about color commands here. They're a little janky, and I think I need to talk to George at Don't Panic Flip to figure out. I know why they're janky. The Rift commands work fine. The color commands are messing with me. So I have commands in the chat. They can change the color of this. Yeah, yeah. And the robots down here will say something insulting. All the interactive stuff is on the screen. I see you're right. It's orange. It does look orange in person. Yeah. Right here. What I'd be down to do is like, what is it, hook up like an Arduino or like a Raspberry Pi up to an arcade cabinet. Yeah. Or like a pinball machine. And then instead of people donate, it'll like make everything go off. Oh my god. That's awesome. Yeah. It looks like it's like trying to hook up to EE or something. That's hilarious, dude. That would be a little distracting to my game. Oh yeah. But that's fine. Colors just take longer than, yeah. The colors are taking long because they're looking for my hue lights at home. Oh, I get you, I get you. but but on location I don't have you this is the area right there or if it's going out you want to let go of the flippers with a pass come on show me what you got all right show me what you go you got the drop on me already so as if I'm pretending it's the competition high stakes. I haven't done anything in the game yet. I haven't hit a damn drop target. I've got nothing, so I'll just play the game, I guess. It's like three things. Drop targets, spinner, lock once you get the drop targets. Nope. Oh, got it. This is a pure game where if you think it's going to in lane, no, no. Get it to the center because that going to eat it no matter how nice it looks So in lane out lane nope you want center My own Rift Commands aren working Eric flip, bounce, Hup, got it! Alright, one left, one left, okay. Spinner. Suck this. Well you can't do anything else from the right flipper. So close. Got it. multiball is lit now. I can post pass I guess. I didn't even ask you. I just did it and then I missed it. Ahhhh the out lane! Oh no! Man this guy sucks. Oh I beat him! I beat him! I beat him! Yay! One shot away! I got so sad. I thought you would beat me. I already gave up. I already walked away. Never give up. Never surrender. No. He's quoting Pixar movies. I don't know. That was like back when Apple owned Pixar. I played the second Genesis game a lot. It must have been about 96 to 98. That's fair. About 12. What's going on, Wax? So when do we get to see it? When do we get to see the... Oh, look at that. Five times. When do we get to see TNA? TNA. That means total nuclear annihilation. Total nuclear annihilation. Not the other TNA. So Audrey is saying don't walk away before the bonuses are collected. Very, very smart girl. She learned everything from me. I want to see a million. Let's see a million. Damn it. Oh. I want to see a million, too. That'd be great, guys. That'd be so great. Oh, look, it's still 5X. Can you post on this? Oh, really? I did not know that. I don't play this game now. Oh, wow. It relights from the hot? That's interesting. By the way, New Peru, thank you for the follow. I give you. Is that you? That's me. Oh, okay. I want to show you guys that. Hey, you. Hey. Kitten soup. Kitsuneco. Kitsuneco, that's you? Yeah, that's it. I usually get follows from people who are here playing pinball, which is great. They're literally following me. This is scary. All right, Das. Here you go. Here's your multiball. What do I shoot for anyway? The spinner. And any time it goes in the right in lane, it likes to spin it for ten times. So it's a 5X multiball. There it is. Right in lane. Oh! 50K. It could be worth like $2 million at one shot. But any time it goes in the right end lane, which is not something you can eat for, right end lane is the only thing. If it comes down that right end lane any time, definitely better with 5X, but any time, 10X spinner. Wait, wait, wait. So only on certain times in the right end lane, right? No, every time it goes down the right end lane, it likes spinner 10X. Bang in the ring. Any time. So only one or two times? No, every time you're down the right end lane. There's no timer, there's no way to light it. I'm being such a dick right now. It's great to do it when you're in 5x multiple, but it's still a great shot if you're just playing the game and you happen to be in the right angle. The next winner, that's the phone call. Excuse me, what? Phone's ringing. Oh! So close. Oh, shoot again. Oh, I got an extra ball. I think so. Shoot again. There it is. Yeah. I got to put some of these in. No, I get you. I get you. I want you guys to try, I want you guys to play next. Okay. All right? I'm down, I'm down. We're going to watch my fellow Twitch streamers kill it. That's important. Meanwhile, I'm at 776. Look at that. I'll get that. Score a beat. My goal today was a million. Oh, yeah? You're close, dude. You got two times. Well, one more ball. Yeah, but here's the thing about this game, though. Yeah? It could be a beast. You can have a great ball, and then you can have a ball that just doesn't even touch a flipper. How old is this one? This is from 1984. Oh, my goodness. 1984. The best year, I say, ever. Oh, crap. Not just for pinball, it's ever? Ever. All right, I just ate a bunch of my quarters. We're going to have to open it up, but that's okay. The best year ever. Yes, ever. 1984. Come on. In the chat, you know 84 was the best year. Even if you weren't born in 84, you've got to say 84 was the best year ever. What year were you? 78. So you were alive in 84? I wasn't. I was not. I know. Yeah, and you agree. 84 was the best year. It's the best year. I'm just saying. I'm doing the wrong thing. I've got to hit the I and the E. So you guys, when you play this next, here's the way you do it. What you want to do is you want to hit all the alien targets. Once you hit all the alien targets, it lights this saucer kicker. It lights this saucer for the bonus value that will be during your multiball. The only way for you to change that bonus value, though, is that spinner. So that spinner just randomly spins the bonus value. Now I got an F5X. F5X. So it's a cool touch. One to two days I had to rebuild the entire place with plastics Yep, that's what you're doing Okay, so I'm a post Oh my god Let me try that again That's called a post bus Wait a minute, why am I not lit? I didn't light it yet? Oh, I still got the eye Gotta get it in the eye Woo Alright Dang it Alright, I gotta get that eye I gotta get him in the eye Aye, aye Aye, aye, aye, let's see if you can backhand it Ooh Okay Got it I messed up, so I kind of Okay, it's still 5x Oh, crap, bad flip, bad flip Okay, good flip Micah, Dad, when are you coming home? I want to watch Back to the Future. You know what it is. Oh, my God, my son. Oh, my goodness. My son is awesome. You got a Back to the Future football machine? No, we're at Back to the Future Part 3 now. We watched one and two together. Oh, I see. And today is time for three. All right, Micah. We're going to do one or two more. Oh, no! Are you kidding me? I'm scared. And then you gotta hit alien all over again. Oh, so close! Oh, oh! Whoa, whoa, whoa! Go, go, go! Oh, so close! I think that's my high score. Oh my goodness. I think that's my high score. I think six, nine... No, I think I got a million before. Alright guys, you ready? Okay, okay. Alright, so... Okay. Layer one. Layer two. Okay. Here we go, here we go. I'm ready, I'm ready. He's got a... Oh! That's what I'm talking about! You never got a flip! You never know! You never got a flip, alright? That's gotta hurt. Finish him! That's exactly... The house just gets... I'm sorry, your quarters? They're ours now. That's a dangerous one. That guy can have an anybody bet, not just anybody. Exactly. It's like, what is it? They try to ban pinball because they're like, oh, it's like a. It's gambling. Exactly. And it's like, well, you don't get anything out of it other than a high score. And they're like, well, it still is like gambling. It's like, no, not really. That's the famous Roger Sharp. He showed him in court battle. I'm going to shoot that. He shot it. I'm going to shoot that. He shot it. He shot it. Yeah. You can get good at this. Yeah, people try to make it fail. Nice, good ball. All right. He's got a house ball, which is terrible. Oh, my goodness. Yeah, no, instantly. I ended up with 9.86. 9.86. All right, all right, all right. I feel 25x more. You know this is that ball game, right? Yes. You both seem to have that one magic moment that got him named. Yep. He got named, and it started laying on the ground. He was like, oh, this is it. And I remember one time, this was right next to the register. And he's like, dude, watch this. Every time. That's not a joke. I'm just like, watch this. This is going to be good. I set it up right. Boom. Nails the spinner. It was like 3 million. It was a 155X multiple on the inlay. And it was just like, oh, beautiful spin. Wow. I gotta be more careful when I get the 5X in the multiple. It's a totally different game. There's no story to it. The story is just about keeping it alive and doing the little things and then tailing it when the right moment happens. It's a very in-the-moment game. All right, small two. It's going to come right out. This is not alien-happy spin. You've got ten left. I like how you're drilling that spinner, though. That's a free point. Oh, it's good. It's a thousand for spins. Now ten thousand for spins. Ten thousand for spins. Oh! That's why I'm here. Yes! Up top. Up top. All right, you've got to come back. Okay, okay. I got this. I got it. It's that golden feeling when it goes through and you nail it. Okay. Okay. Winner half, baby. It's a nightmare. Winner half. Okay. Okay. All right. Let's see. All right. Oh. Okay. Oh! It's my luck. It's my luck. The bonus multiplier is this lane, that target. Oh. That's the bonus multiplier. I hit that shot a lot. I didn't know what it was. So you already won, but you're going to finish your ball, right? Yep. You have multiball lit right there. Okay. If so... Walk off! Walk off. What the hell? Walk off. No, he's strutting. I want to see a million now. Now he's trying to beat a million. Wait, wait, wait, wait. You won the game. I believe, I believe. Oh, he's blocking. It's all skill, it's all skill. Look at this. Oh! Look at that. That's pretty good. Why are you keeping sex with me? I'm not. I think it's cool. I know that. I've heard it's not a move. I've heard it all. Some game I was playing I don't know how you guys do that. Keep hitting that spinner now. Pretty much the only thing you can do. Actually, the only thing you've got to do, you've only got one target left on the right. And then you start lighting bonuses, which could be an extra ball and stuff. If they're not, like, choosable, they snap. Spin! Oh, that was a long one. He got the other way. Oh, guys. You can do it again. What's the break? Hey, what's the break? Ten Ks. Ten Ks. Five would be half a million spins. Yeah, that makes sense. I've seen someone do a five million spin. Oh my goodness. The whole thing is going together. You started five times multiball. You went to the in-link ten times. Oh my goodness. And then the spin. I saved it. You got it. I'll give you the handshake. We got to get a throw down. Now I'm ready to play. I've been talking about the throws. I saw you shooting the table. I just got so unlucky. I know. All right. Four. Are you guys cutting that? Dude, I'm down. We're gonna do a four player game. Alright, let's do it. And I think that's gotta be it, cause I gotta head home actually. I'll get you, I'll get you. Yeah, yeah. I think it did a good job. I think it ate at least one. Yeah, it, this'll- Nah, nah, it's good, I put it in fourth. This'll, this'll eat him, this'll eat him. Alright. Alright. Um. Who's going up? Who's first? I gotta go last, cause I'm, I'm the host. Okay, okay, that's fair. I'm the last. I'm the first. Alright, here we go, who's- Help! Let's see this. Alright, aliens start. You guys, you guys wanna play teams? These little targets. Combine the score. Oh, my goodness. How about you and me? Okay. Versus you two. Okay. All right. So, Das, we're doing teams. We're doing teams, like left and right? You and Michael? Okay. So, you'll be player three there. Das and Michael. Oh, good job. So, you and me. You'll be player three. Okay. Joshua. Joshua. Yeah. So, player three, just so it's easier to look down. Okay. Yeah. All right. Let's go. Wait. One, two, three, four. Okay. Does that work? Yeah, it's just easier to see the scores down together. Just wake me up when I have to and then it's a Hey, man, it's a start It's not there. I can't play for 39 minutes Shabba-doo! Sleeves are coming up. Oh, let's go, let's go. Alright, here we go. No house balls, no house balls. Alright, alright, here we go. Alright let try and set it to five times Alright alright No Straight Almost the same Same score. Almost the same. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Hey, hey. I got you good. I got you good. Oh, my goodness. Oh, my goodness. Cheating. Every time. Oh. Okay, no second. Let's do it. Let's do it. I hate when there's stakes involved because then I play like garbage. All good? It's all just fun? It's all fun? Oh, it's on now. Oh, I'm sorry. Friendly? That's it. You're going down. Buddy. All right. All right. Here we go. I just got to do better than... Oh, shia la bou. Get up there. Hang on, hang on, hang on. Everybody just calm down, alright? Alright. Give me some free points. Oh, no! Oh, no! Okay, okay. Let's do this. We got this, bro. We got this. I only got two more targets to go. They do carry over. There is no real skill shot. It's just like don't not catch the ball. Let's try that again. Yeah, you can't change the lanes up there, which is weird. No! Alright. I know I misplayed one second. I got this. Here we go. We get just the lightest touch. No one's blown it up yet. Alright, here we go. Here we go. Dude, Overwatch? Wizard of Overwatch. This. No! I'm terrified. It went down the side. Do the Alameda Brutals. Brutality. Oh, it's me. All right, here we go. House ball. Come on. House ball. House ball. Come on, come on. Oh. Oh. What's he doing? I know. It's exciting. Oh, my goodness. No impossible Whoppers, no rainbow Whoppers. That should be a tournament, the impossible Whopper tournament. Impossible turn Whopper tournament. Oh, okay, okay. When it drops down this lane, these light up. Meaning if you hit that, you do off your bonus mobile wire. That's pretty cool, I did not know that rule. But no one shoots for it. And the Twitch viewers... I like the way it looks. I've actually shot for it, but I didn't know what I was doing. The Twitch viewers have the best view of the game right now. They really do. Because we're all kind of sharing just like whatever. All right. Murder me right now. Let's go. Let's go, man. That's it. That's the way. That's the way. Y'all can just forfeit now. You don't know what I'm going to do. Okay, okay. I'm excited. Show me. Show me, man. I can't right now. Oh, that's fair. That's fair. But he's never going to lose. It's okay. Got it. Got it. Got it. Look at that score. Oh, baby. Oh, that felt so good. Dude, that was the only time I've ever done that in my life. until you have that moment. Look at that score! Oh my god! Damn! That was good. Oh man, see, you just have to have the right teammate, okay? But Doss can do that too, I've seen him. Doss can totally do that also. Everyone can do it. We're all humans. We have fingers. All right. Dude, even if you don't have fingers, you can set something up. Yeah, there is a reason. Yeah. I mean, out of their games you can play with your mind now. I've never done that. Oh, let's go. It's cool because even in competition it's about attitude. Yeah, exactly. It doesn't matter if you're 10 feet tall and muscular or this size. This is the game. The game is just activating the game itself at the right time. Exactly. This is the game we're ending on. I don't care. If someone gets higher points than me, it's totally worth it. Exactly, exactly. Can I collect that extra ball? Can I collect that extra ball? I'm going to go for the N. I'm just saying, this pinball is probably one of the easiest games that you can set up for like adaptability. So the disabilities, you can easily set it up because all you need is a mouthpiece, right? There's a, so Ben Heck created a thing for a one-armed player. Yeah? Where he can press both keys on one side. Yes. It was brilliant. It was really cool. That is so smart. I know about the, what is it, there's like air valves where if you put, like if you blow in, it'll activate like a button. And if you suck in, it'll activate a button. Oh, wow. Really? No appendages. They can play pinball. Because literally all it is, is just hooking up the two buttons to that system. Easy, baby. Easy. Let's go, boy. Let's go. That's too easy. Too easy, man. Look at you. You're getting shy. Yeah, I am. Listen, I will prove it right now. I'm quite proud of that myself. Shoot again? Thank you. Thank you. Kitsuko, thank you so much. Oh, that's... Oh, my goodness. All right, is it DOS now? No, it's still... Oh, it's still meat? Well, I think. Should I play extra balls during this? I don't know. Girl, I'll take it. No, no, no, you can't take it. I'm just wondering if... In the chat, should we play extra balls or should we plunge away extra balls? I was going to find out. Because usually in a league game, you can't play extra balls. That's fair, that's fair. You plunge and that's it. You walk away. Any points you get. Wax says play them. Wax says play them. Okay, play them. Wax says play them. We're being dirty. I mean, where do you guys play? We're being dirty. It could have been a house ball, too. That would have been hilarious. Okay, I'm not going out like that. No, no, no, no. Got the end. All right. Let's make that five, five, five, five. Five, three, I'll take three, I'll take three. I'll take three, that's okay. Let's safely get to this flipper. That's not the safe way to get to that flipper. There's no way that that's the safe way to get to that flipper. Ah! Double it! Get up there! Ah, I missed. Dead flip, thank you my man. Thank you dead flip, Jack Danger, for creating that. Oh! Oh! That's your highest score though, yeah? That right now is the biggest score I ever put up. Oh my goodness. 2.3. Alright, sounds good, sounds good. Oh my goodness. Shotgun goes! Alright! I'm not looking at the scores. I'm gonna put up 4 million. That's all I have to do. We got this. We got this. Scores don't exist, except for me. Two more targets. Tilt? No tilt? Tilt! Why would you tilt? Well when you said tilt it wasn't and then you said tilt again and I was just holding it and it did tilt. That was me. I'm sorry. I didn't get my form 2. Alright you gotta carry us to victory. We can do this. Okay, okay. Here, here, here. We'll combine all of our scores. We'll do 3v1. Okay, from your moment, just run, run, run, run, baby! Oh, I'm gonna get like, I just, I'm gonna, did you guys see how much, how much it was going up? Yeah, it was pretty, you know, it's nice. All right, okay. It's actually like four million on one shot. All right, gotta try this again. Yeah, yeah. All right, here we go. All right, here we go. Watch this. I'll just look at it. It's like four to seven million. Look at that. That's nice. This is how you LED excellent use of the right bulbs slash covers. Oh, thank you bro. They did some good work on this. I've never seen it before. It looks great to me. It looks old and new at the same time. And not tacky. Not tacky. The lights are definitely newer than when it came out. I came out. It still fits. Dude, this deck. I've been working on it. It's alien. Look at that heart. It's that alien. This is the hugest walk-off I've ever seen. I got multiple. You need five million now. No, no. Five million. No, no, no. Just do it. Five million. You need five million to win this game. I'm at 3x. I'll take three. I'm having trouble getting that shot now. It is locked. Is it? Yep. Oh, guys, we're ready. Sorry, I haven't played the game in a while. I thought the orange was for 3X. Wow. Oh! I'm sorry. Oh, my goodness. Hey. Thank you, Michael. I'll take it first. Thank you, Michael. Thank you, guys. Thank you, guys. I was actually trying to fuck you up. Let's go. Thank you. Thank you, everybody, for joining me. You know what? Joshua. Joshua. I got a... Yeah, that's the last one for me. My son is yelling at me to come home. I got to take a picture for Pindigo. I was going to do some dancing in the background while I was training. I got one-third, two, four, six. I got one-third of the high score. I got to turn off the flash. Dude, Das, you're not kidding. When you hit that spinner the right way. I love the sound on this game so much. It feels so good. Everything still spins. I miss the music in the front because I love when people play it. Yeah, exactly. Exactly. Oh, the sour please. Oh, sour please. I love sour please, man.
