## Transcript

Last night, Joel Engelberth streamed the rare new Keith Elwin-designed Stern Pinball James Bond 60th Anniversary Limited Edition pinball machine. This stream took things to a whole other level from previous streams of the game. Not only was there a camera on the playfield and one on the players as usual, there was also cameras fixed on the scoring reels, in-playfield screen and topper.

Kudos to Joel on the great YouTube video, which I mave embedded below for anyone who wants to check it out:
