- [HIGH] There is a competition rule set for Wheel of Fortune that is more balanced than the standard rule set, but venues cannot use it if they charge for plays due to licensing restrictions — _Andrei and Jon Hey discuss that a special competition rule set exists but cannot be deployed at paying locations; Jon Hey references 'Thomas Law' as a reason (likely misheard)_
- [HIGH] The game features a trick where players can stack a multiball mode with a bonus round by timing a 'buy vowel' shot correctly — _Andrei provides detailed explanation of the bonus-round stacking trick: 'If you're close to solving a puzzle and buy a vowel is lit and bonus is lit, and you think after you buy that vowel the puzzle will be ready to be solved... if you buy the vowel, that light solve puzzle, what will happen is solve puzzle will light up and your bonus round will start. Then you solve the puzzle and you can put the trip on top of the bonus.'_
- [MEDIUM] The game's code was never fully completed; a Wizard Mode was not finished — _Jon Hey states: 'They never finished it. That's right, right? They never finished the code' and mentions Keith Jeff Johnson worked on it 'for free on his own time because there's a labor load'_
- [MEDIUM] Wheel of Fortune has inconsistent plunger behavior where it doesn't always travel the full distance on its own — _Andrei notes: 'On this game, you gotta pull the plunger the whole way. Because it doesn't go the full distance on its own all the way, usually'_
- [MEDIUM] The game has a technical glitch or quirk where the start button can reset a bad game — _Jon Hey mentions: 'when you're playing and then you're trying to get a good game, you hold down the start button and a bad game becomes a potentially good game' and notes this happens 'more than I'd like'_

## Transcript

 Hey Hello, hello, hello We got on location pinball time What up everybody, MPT3K here, once again, on location, playing this. I think this was one of the first games I streamed, or one of the first like maybe 5 or 10 games that I've streamed. This is Wheel of Fortune, starting 2007. I am at Free Go Watch And just so you know Free Go Watch is now currently open So masks required Masks required The two machines next to me Cannot be played Although I usually eat up the two machines Next to me anyway because I got gear and stuff Hey what's up Will of Fortune baby Also there is a rock star who's here Andre is chilling and he's playing some Guardians right now. I told him, if you want to come by and blow up some Wheel of Fortune on stream, please do, and he said, okay, I'll think about it. If it costs around $100 to $100... Hi there, everybody. I'm Andre, and yeah, I'm sure Manu told you everything that you need to know about the game already, but I'm just going to give you a quick two-and-a-half-minute tutorial about how I approach this game. This is a fun game. It's original layout. The center and then the side free spins are really original, and the rules are interesting too. So anyway, basically the first thing I try to do is hit the U in bonus at the start of ball. That lights two of my free spins. First thing I do, you can hit it from this flipper or this flipper. The other thing I do, which I usually don't do, is I stop the ball. I hold it on a flipper when the wheel is spinning so I can see what award is coming up on the wheel. And then I prioritize two things on the wheel, trip or extra ball. Trip's the multiball, extra ball's an extra ball. And then the other thing is, you do get a free trip for solving puzzle one, two, or three. It'll light up and be flashing at the start of the game, so you'll know which puzzle will automatically give you a trip. Don't focus on trips during that puzzle, because you're going to get it anyway. That's about it, except for one more secret thing. The bonus rounds are great with multiball. You can play bonus with the regular multiball, the green one. You can't technically start a bonus round, and again that's from spelling B-O-N-U-S and then shooting here, with trip multiball, but there's a little trick you could do. This is what you do. If you're close to solving a puzzle and buy a vowel is lit and bonus is lit, and you think after you buy that vowel the puzzle will be ready to be solved and bonus is lit, you shoot that. If you buy the VAL, that light solve puzzle, what will happen is solve puzzle will light up and your bonus round will start. Then you solve the puzzle and you can put the trip on top of the bonus. So that's a fun little trick. There's another way to do even more than that with that. That's the one I know. But anyway, let's play. I didn't know that. It's a weird trick and you got to time it right. Sometimes you'll guess wrong if you do it too early or too late. The category for round one is before and after. So I didn't get that U I wanted. Are you going immediately for three spins? Yes, immediately. These voices are really funny. Maria gets the most excited when they're big jackpots on the trip multiball. And just in general. I'm probably going to use it rather than lose it. So I'm stopping it. I want to see where the wheel stops. I want trip or extra ball. I missed an extra ball at the beginning of this ball. There's trip. You can catch it off this left side pretty easily, except for there, but generally you actually can. The danger is if he gets a bankrupt right here, then I lose the trip. Alright, this is it He's warming up He's warming up I like to go for the skill shot Hi Vanna, hi Pat Hi everybody Hi Vanna They don't call it quick multiball for nothing. By the way, prize puzzle. Prize puzzle means you get a trip for finishing it, so I don't have to worry about that. I'm looking for extra balls. You get a lot of ramps, you get an extra ball too. Use that free spin and keep your turn. Yeah, I definitely want to use it and not lose it. Yes, there is a team. 60,000. Go for it, Isaac. Kill it. Any questions about this game, maybe I can answer. There's a couple of people who actually did ask in the beginning. It's just a special game. I think it came out in 08 or 07. 07, yeah. I remember it was at the Metreon. TJ had it there. Yeah, I used to play that one too. Well, it's the only one I knew to play. All right, work it out. Yeah, I was just seeing if there were questions. Yeah. So keep going, keep going. So we're going to... Andre's going to school you guys in a minute. I'll just be here because I'm watching too. Well, you can provide the commentary too, then I can focus on playing. Thank you for the raise, Captain 12. There's that extra ball. It's in the hardest position to hit. close but those extra balls are so powerful There's one M. 100,000. Should have worked on the free spin. Is that Bowen? Is Bowen watching? That's a redemption. Oh, okay. Because I was like, hi Bowen, if he was watching. He could explain this game a lot better. This is a regular rule set There's a special competition rule set But we can't get it here Because you can't have it And charge people to play it But it's more balanced Like it's really unfair On this game If you get the trip earlier and I get it later I get it earlier It's like a ROM update Yeah Yeah. A kind of sketchy... But you just can't do it. You can't have it and have people pay. Yeah. I don't know what the law is. He disabled the credits. That's why we can't put it in here. Fascinating. Yeah, it's just for competitions. It changes the rules of the... It changes the rules of the bonus round. We have one hand. 40,000. So I want Keith. Puzzles are ready to be solved but I want Keith because I want the trip. You can also light and start regular multiball during trip. On this one, the bumpers increase the jackpot. On this game, you gotta pull the plunger the whole way. Because it doesn't go the full distance on its own all the way, usually. Jackpot. Go jackpot. If I am Pat. Real long grace periods on Jackpots. Like I could hit one right now and still get it. It's pretty absurd. Well, just beyond the grace period. But super long grace periods on the skim. Gene knows how to get those out. How do you spell your last name? M-A-S-S-E-N That's a big bonus. K-O-R-F-F? K-O-R-F-F, yeah. The category for round one is... M&M's By the way, it's a prize puzzle. All the way up! We have an R. 80,000 Tim Hanson, California State champion a few years ago, he likes to just keep hitting that right loop and then taking this nice feed and then hitting it over and over again. That's his strategy. It's a pretty good feed on most games. It's slow. It's at the right angle. You give it a little pop here And then you kind of catch it I got a trip, but it's already lit up anyway because it's a prize puzzle Radio City What's up, Don't Panic Flip? How sorry is Pat really when he says that? Like, is he... I mean, he sees it all the time. It's not like a big deal. He's a little less condescending than... What's his name? Turn it back. So I'm going to try that trick with the bonus round. If it hits soft puzzle, yes, I can put trick onto this bonus round if I hit soft puzzle. So that's the trick. Yeah, well, 20 seconds. Yeah. 12 seconds of bonus round with the trip. Maria is definitely the most enthusiastic with these jackpots. Let's see if we can pull a Grace Fury jackpot here. See, I was going for Keith, trying to get another trip. And did not. I'm missing a lot of shots today. Thank you. Oh, one more. Yeah, just trying too hard. We're not hard enough. I don't know. One more, baby. One more time. I like that non ramp right Yeah You miss no big deal It pretty hard to hit That worth so much if you get those But step one is much harder than step two Did you explain the skill shot and how it works? Yeah, quickly. I'm hoping for a bonus round plus regular multiball together. This is a special game. I mean can you really compare it to anything? Maybe the center is similar to some old-timey games, but that's about it. I can start the bonus round and then the multiball, but I'd prefer to start both of them together. So just hitting that green target. Almost hitting that green target. Yeah, okay. Not too exciting. Getting decent scores. So you just doubled my high score today. Really? Yeah. Okay, I'm going to try to double my high score. That'll be my goal in this. What's your high score? No, I just meant 30. Like 60 maybe. I don't know. I just want to get one good one in the books today, if that's okay, Manu. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So, you know, one secret, too, when you're playing and then you're trying to get a good game, you hold down the start button and a bad game becomes a potentially good game. So that was a much better start. That was my one mulligan there today. This has been doing that. It's been doing that. So that was just garbage actually. Well it's not meant to do that. No. Even though they make games hard so they give you a hard time, but that was not an intentional design thing. I think there's a beat. But that happens here. More than I'd like. That hasn't happened to you yet Manu? No, I just started playing it today. You should be able to see it. I mean, we don't have any students, right? You've never played Wheel of Fortune? Wow, man. I'm glad you got it. Yeah, I got you. I got you. This is all I used to play at the Metron. This is all I used to play. What else did they have back then? They had Spider-Man. They had Family Guy. The Batman Dark Knight. Dark Knight, yep. What else did they have? I don't remember. Oh, they had the Lord of the Rings. Did they have pirates? One of the most amazing things is they put the pirate software into Spider-Man. And they put the pirate's code into Spider-Man. Did it work? Yeah, except you had to figure out which shots meant which Spider-Man shots. It was ridiculous. This was after TJ was done there. The other people who took over really didn't know what they were doing. I mean, there's a big obvious difference between... Spiderman and I mean I guess they're both Disney properties now but So I need that extra ball Maria. Hey Delaware Pinball this is the latest code but not the tournament code. Lucky me. I was ready for that or entirely not ready for that. Well, here's that extra ball. Let's get 60. So funny. Everyone's just silently watching. No one's asking. They're just paying attention. I like how they have a good atmosphere. That's a high power. Oh, what a great, good, soft, and fit. And work the engine. I see how it's in there. Thank you. Handle with every spin. Ah! You are in the puzzle. Museum may have, no, sorry. It could have been Museum Mayhem at one point. So, saw a puzzle. Ah, so I get a good trip on this. So I hope it's a good one. My favorite is Ramp Rampage when they have the malfunctioning ramps. I think I'm warmed up now. 60. That's a goal. Oh, it's full. Thank you for the sub. Oh, my God. Jackpot! Jackpot! Thank you for the biddies! Thank you for the biddies! Now I'm really pissed off. No, no, don't, don't, don't, don't. No, you're just taking up space. The category for round three is... Oh, oh, that hurt. You still in it? You still in it? You got another one? No. 33. 36. All right. Damn. I'm going to try one more time. my goal is reasonable. I'm going to make it 47 this game. 47. What's the over-under on 47 for Andre? 50-50 for 47. Round one is Living Things. I got a scream. Yeah, so this is my last shot. Now that I'm woke up. Here's a trip. I'm going for the extra ball now. The trip is good, but the extra ball is better. He's got two trips now. I don't know why via val is not lit. The light just might be out. Uh-huh. Great, geez. You just burned a free spin. We have one out, 80 pounds. I need Maria to solve the puzzle. Yeah. Oh, God. Alright, here we go. There's no danger of her going bankrupt. Okay. Darn it. Step Your Mom Hates, thank you so much for the emotes. You're a legend. Would you feel comfortable playing one-on-one with me? I mean, it's just going to be embarrassing when you beat me. But otherwise, yeah, you ready? Wow, that was lucky. There's that grace period. I think I won an extra ball. I guess I'm playing it now. There are two eyes. Yeah. I mean, if you can maximize a multiball, you can put some distance between you and your opponent. What have I only done? I've only started one regular multiball, right? Yeah, I think so. Do you want to go first or second? I wanna go first. Alright? Yeah! You get the trick on the third. I suspect I'll get it earlier. I don't know if I'll get anything. Alright guys, don't record this, okay? Record it! This is a hundred million games! Now that you know that trick about tricking bones, you can read them. Yeah, I gotta be able to execute it though. Alright, let me see this. Hello. Hi. Free speed. Oh. I saw you. Yeah, do you like to play games too? Yeah. What are your favorite games? I like Captain Star Wars and Indiana Jones. Oh, those are some fun games. They're not a lot. They're not a lot. They're fun games. How you doing? I'm good. Bye. Thanks for saying I play well. Well, I did a terrible first call. I know, I know. You're just trying to lull me into a sense of complacency. I get it. You're kind of a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. I'm a rascal. Hold wild card value. What a joy. What a joy. I'd like to buy a new A. One A. I feel like I get lucky sometimes when I'm not ready and it hits that. I like the lion's eye. You can give me one now. Here comes the trip That song fair to you I get the trip right away you know I picked this in league and that happened to me I picked the game but my opponent got the trip early and I got it late. So I didn't even get to it, but he did. The spin's turned on. after the multiball ended. Anyway, that's what's up going. Alright. Big money. No more Emmys. You'll get your ball back with every spin. Thank you for the follow! Oh you suck! Are you kidding me? No! Why you trash talking me while I'm playing? Oh you're talking to the game I guess. Andre you suck! You don't seem like the type that I haven't been playing with you much. You aren't! That's how I That's how I intimidate my opponent. I yell mean things at them when they're not playing. they're not playing. Alright let's see, let's see. That bonus round is exciting. You never know what you're going to get. Yeah. Two eyes. I got two eyes. One, two. They're both the same size one two I got two eyes and they're both the same size that was for my kid if he's watching this one sucks because this is all about combos what's wrong with combos I can't do combos I'm look at this look look at this That's two. You didn't get a Y on the sword, you? Ah, nope, no. Gimme. Yes. There you go. Yeah, that's a hard one. That's a tough one. Yeah! Three way, three way, baby. That's what I'm all about, the three way. Ah, is that it? Woo! It's weird you got so little value for some great stuff. I know. Like your last, your third combo was about 360,000. I got nothing to like all that work. D. D. Okay. Triple Ds. All right. Three and a half. Spin it, spin it, spin it, spin it, spin it, spin it. 500,000. Oh. Damn. Something better is going to come up. Triple X. Triple F. Nothing better. Alright. Go for another bonus round. I never shoot for multiball because, boy, that... What the fuck was that backhand? That was pretty sweet. That was sick. You said you're going for bonus round and that's the way to do it. That was a very quick return to bonus round. I don't think I've ever done that. And the multiball, I mean, you'll get it through... Through, yeah, just whatever. Thank you, don't panic flip. Alright, what are we doing? What are we doing? Keep it spinning. Is this worth it, Andre? I'll just shoot the lights. It's just fun to make the shots. I think it likes the ramps when you do that. It likes when you hit the ramps. That's not a ramp. That's not a ramp. I had that shot locked in for a minute. No. Nice. Look at your score. Oh, I came up. I came up. Let's see the bonus, too, because you started two bonus rounds. You should get a good bonus. I look like a pinball player right now. I told you you'd have to keep it spinning. Good value. Way better than the other one. All right. I feel like a pinball player. You are a pinball player. There is an M, one hundred and ninety. I think there's a T, five hundred and thousand. Yes, there is an S. I'm glad you don't work for one of those minor companies. Triple jackpot. That's a lot of points, even though it wasn't a lot of jackpots. I'm from Freedom Power, Kentucky. That's right. I got the extra ball, too, from Keith, I think. And we have three innings. Woo! Actually, I'm still waiting on the extra ball from Keith. Oh, okay. Jesus, RJ. Alright, $750,000. No, you can just call me Andre. Jesus, Andre. I don't deserve that. So what do you got? What do you got? Alright. Nothing good on the wheel. Nothing good on the wheel. Bonus is far. I think my wild card can deliver you some nice stuff in the prize banks if you're lucky. Wild card? Yeah. It'll say, like, light all trips. Or light all extra balls. for Phil Yellow Bank and Olight all three awards. Oh shit, okay, I didn't know that. I don't know. That's what I do. Or the multiball. Yeah, the multiball is, that's the closest thing, ah, no, no, that's the closest thing I'm at. No, all right. That shot could be big. All right, here, I need to get that free spin. I got one of them. I don't know, man. I really want to be able to... You're close. You're so close. I'm so close. You can shoot that wild shot, right? From here. Yeah, but... Wow. I know. I got to get that multiball. I got to get that multiball right now. I like your skills. Damn. Let's see what's on the wheel. Oh, I forgot about the wheel. It's okay. I mean, we're getting good rights. I was thinking about the wheel. Multiball, you can put me away. Ah! No! Okay. There's nothing on the wheel. I'm close to bonus again. Yeah. Okay, you know what? That shot is not happening right now. What are you doing? Yeah, the slingshot probably hit it for you. Okay. So, leave it alone. Do other stuff. Mischiefy that much! Player one is using free spin. Look at that. It hit the skill shot for me. You hit it again accidentally like we discussed. You didn't have a chance to take a shot at it, but you lit it. Mischiefy that much! So what do I do? Do I just plunge it off? I would like to play you again. I was just wondering about this last ball. Or should I try to rub it in? I'd like to play you as long as you care to play. But if you want to go play somewhere else, I... Oh, I'm down. I was just wondering if I should play this ball. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Because I think I could get that 47... I feel good about my score versus you right now. There are three main teams. Okay, Keith. Eight. One each. 50 pounds. You've just earned a free spin. Ah, okay. I think we have enough. 80 pounds. That's trust right there. You've got to trust that post. So I got the extra ball. Should I continue? Yeah, see if you can crack up over 40. 47 is my goal. Okay. You can't go over 40. You're going to get 40. 40. Grab that free spin. Lonnie is the absolute hardest hit. Come on. There you go. This is extra ball, right here. You think so? I was just kidding. That's like the opposite of extra ball. Thank you for the bits, polished ball. Thank you for the bits. Ready? One, two, three. Y! Yes, two Ys. What is this puzzle? Can someone solve that, please? Why do the... What's the category? I think we have an L.A. sound. You something your life? You bet your life. No, you something your life. No, not life. You save your... Gosh, I don't know. I'm terrible at this game. You lose, you lose. That's it. You snooze, you lose. Yeah, absolutely. Seek while I got it. We have one seed, 45,000. All right, who's going first? I will go first this time. Walter said he's... Oh, wait. I think he's just going to the bathroom. Actually, you know what? I got to do a quick station break. The odds of all those being zero? Wow 28,000 on the dot are one out of a hundred thousand one out of a hundred thousand times yeah one out of a hundred thousand times you have all zeros there all right we're gonna do a quick station break and we'll be right back and when we come back you go first it's up to you yeah he's freaking over the two eight 0 0 0 0 0 0 being exactly on there so you guys should clip that make sure that you see just around number around this little CD with my stores all right we'll be right back with the pinball network if you're not maybe if you just give me a moment to speak directly to you about what the pinball network is and what it could mean to you the pinball network is a collection of content creators across multiple media. It's YouTube, that is podcasting, that is Twitch streams. Okay, I'm talking to you. And they do it out of the goodness of their beings, out of the goodness of their souls, out of the goodness of pinball, to further pinball as a hobby and the community. That is the reason they do the things they do. They do it for you. So if you're not familiar with the Pinball Network, you should be. I suggest you check out all of those people who are a part of the network. You should give each of them a follow if what you're interested in is soul-enriching pinball-related content. So these are my Pinball Network buddies. Don't forget to check out everybody here on the Pinball Network. We're awesome. I think Don't Panic Flip is in the stream right now. So say hi But you guys came here for more pinball content And that what we going to do So I who starting Andre going to start Hi we Adam Oh free play Yeah, sure. Andre's going to start. And this time I'm going to kick his ass. Well, you got something going for you. It's going to take three puzzles to get to trip. Or at least the free trip. The category for round one is living things. How about that? Oh, yes, there are some. There are some. All right. All right, he's softballing. He's softballing. I got him scared. Now, I showed him all the other TPN streamers. Now he's scared. So those TPNers, right? You know Ray Day, right? Ray McHannison streams for TPNers. Oh, yeah. I bet you his is unreal. His is mean. He's just like, hey, look at something you can't do. I guess why you watch, right? He's tough. He's tough. Is there a wizard mode? No, there is no wizard mode in this version. They never finished it. That's right, right? They never finished the code. He is. He's been. Yeah. For free on his own time because there's a labor load. Exactly. That's right. That's right. Yeah. The guy who... What's his name? Keith? Keith P. Johnson from Chicago, Illinois. Keith P. Johnson from Chicago, Illinois. Whoa. Get up there. I'll take B. I think there are some Cs. I'm curious what Keith thought of the voice actor who played this voice. He sounds... he sounds... kinda dumb. What's on the wheel? Trip is on the wheel. I can't hit him from here though. But you can ricochet off the flashing green symbol... into Lonnie, yeah. Oh shit. Wild cards for a wild player. Okay. Damn it. Did you ever get the 4X shot? I don't know. I don't pay attention to that. So, Ramp Ramp Contestant, it's 4X. I had no idea. It's really hard. It is. That'd be weird if I used it to get a ready-on. I think I've done it once maybe now and you know totally always by this what state on this one both ramps are hard to hit but especially the right sling can I play two slings no no this is exciting I'm going with you, Keith. Oh, that went right back. I got the skill shot. I'm happy. It's so rare. I come back and put up two additional million. Yeah, I like to play fast. When I said in this version, Cheap Wallah... Yeah! Yeah, Cheap Wallah, he's killing here. He's a good streamer, too. He's a good streamer. Nick, when I said in this version, it's... It's the only version. Cheap Wallah, I miss you. Everybody, I miss you. Everybody, I miss you. Ah! Free spin, use it or lose it. There's one P, 100,000. You must earn the free spin. I'd be dead if I didn't get that free spin. Oh! This is exciting, it's such a bouncy fast game. Yeah. You gotta sometimes trust it that it's gonna do its thing. I need that freaking end. Thanks for the mission too, Chief Walla. And you missed that ball too, don't you? It was a successful post-pass to it. Ooh, extra ball was on Keith too. I've got extra ball on my Keith now too. How about a three? One piece. $75,000. That's about... Oh, yeah. The worst thing is if that spin bankrupted her then I would have lost it. That's a weird thing that can happen. Double jackpot. Double jackpot. It's loud, but it wasn't that. It was louder than it was good. Lonnie was where it was at. That was Navani. But he will be there for me. as long as he doesn't bankrupt, they'll lose the turn. I mean, that's how you get the good games, extra balls. uncool but it was nice to me with that so I did that thing where it spun off there do you know what next time I'm gonna shake it when it's going in here Hey Brunette, lets do this! Oh yeah. Yes I will. You just earned a free spin. Why? There isn't why. 30,000. Again, that was me getting lucky. Good bounce. And that was, all right, all right, all right. Are you done? Do you know what you're gonna do? You're gonna start one of your bonus rounds and get like 80 million on it I want to see check out this check this out The last replay I just captured I think that's what you're clicking on. Yeah, I think that was that crazy I mean again that wasn't me it was the machine you know Here we go look look look look and put it up. Yeah, put it up. That's the final wheel. That's this right here This right here is like a winner sometimes So you can actually screw up and still get away with it. Yeah. Alright, 22. Is that ball three? Yeah, yeah, yeah. This is, unfortunately, this is going to have to be it. I got to pick my kid up from preschool. So I got to catch him. I got to catch him. Give me that end. Yeah, finish the round. Grab that free kid. Ah, son of a gun. Bonus. multiball. Stats. Oh no, I pitched it right out. There's an extra ball here, potentially. I pitched it right out. Oh, damn it. Oh, no.
