But, uh uh yeah, Winchester like Winchester has made me I honestly, when I go to Winchester after this game, I I do actually play it a little better. So, I I don't know I don't know what it is. All right. And I I just realized I never played Death Star multiball. Because I was farting around. I also never played my land uh my bonus Lando mission. There we go. That's right. Bert Gunner's targeted. Mission completed. So many to choose from. I'm choosing Han. Those guys were really the best to see in the really safe area. Get back to the ship. So, like, if you're watching this and you struggle at pinball, I got news for you. We all do at some point. Never tell me the time. Wow. That could be arranged. That was some glass smashing. All right, I don't want to hit the super yet. I want to complete my mission. All right, let's put on Luke since I can't hit the shot when I need it anyways. [laughter] Pat, you thought you were the only one to get rejected? [laughter] By that metal shot? Yeah, I know. when you don't need a shot, it is just so easy, and when like you need it, it's impossible. Ah, you're ah, I'm getting a Beetlejuice as far as the spooky games go. So, ah, I I've owned them in the past. I had like Rick and Morty, Rob Zombie, ah, America's Most Haunted. What else I have? I think that's about it. Yeah, exactly, right? I mean, it's fun. It's fun. It's just when you just that when you want to play good and try to impress people, But, no, it it is pinball is a lot of fun. All right, Darth Vader mode. Or is it just mystery? Like it's force missions. My bidding is All right, got the ion cannon. Wait, did it give me the Oh, it gave me the pop up. Do I dare go for pop bumpers? Sure. All right, what do we get like 1200 million on that? 113 million's not bad. Maybe I should just play Darth Vader mode all day. Seem to seem to play better at those than anything else. All right, I got to hit some purple flashy shots, too. Ooh. No, no, stay on the middle shot. That was nice. Get in there. Lord Vader, what about Leia in the woody? Commentary in the video. That was never a condition of our agreement, nor was giving him to this bounty hunter. All right, extra ball I need. All right, feel better about that. Don't feel good about missing that shot, though. All right, now we got to rescue Luke. Super lanes are lit. White shots, what was that? Oh, oh. Stay Stay lit. No. Sure, why not? I got I got a few seconds. That's right, I can hit combos during this. Four more for multiball. Now, that's That would be when you start your next Darth Vader mode. Okay, didn't realize before. Five. [] Really? Come on. Everything's timing out. Ah, come on. Oh. That is a fantastic idea. Oh, well. Okay. So, I got a lot of the yellow shots lit. This is going to burn right through these 15 at least a better. Of course, it does require you to hit your shots, but you've seen what I've been doing. Stop rocking. Great shot, kid. That was one in a million. All right. Remember, the force will be with you, always. Now, if I could get to the second one, that would be great. Balls, please. There we I got to complete my mission, my mission. There we go. All right, this is turning into a decent game. Plus, I got a How much is Dark scoring right now? Oh, a lot more than the other shots. Okay, that re-lights all the jackpots. Do do Uh-oh. All right, we're just going to freeze here for a second. All right, that's pretty good multiball, I have to say. We got Darth Vader's uh thing lit, we got Jabba's thing lit. I'm just going to go for uh I'm going to go for dark side multiball, see what happens. Hit action button to cancel. I don't want to do that. I want to play this out. All right, little shots are at 5 million pop. Spin, spin, spin that disc. Would you imagine if you could get multipliers on the pop bumpers while you're in multiball? Looks like I got some kind of collect. PROBABLY TIMED. WOOHOO! 98 million side jackpot. I wonder what it was if I would have hit it faster. And uh and it's still lit there? Guess it is. I don't know if that's a bug or if that's an actual thing. Look out! The emperor's dark Look out! All right. Looks like we're going for Hoth here. There we go. I like that stack. If I can just hit the scoop or the the cop. All right, let's Let's do the Yoda mode. Yep, yep. Other stuff we get a Yoda. Shut up. We shouldn't be shouldn't be mean to Yoda. Come on, come on, come on. Ah, too late. No, not going to make it. At least I didn't drain though. Okay. Jabba mode lit, which I've been ignoring pretty much the whole game. We got not a Jedi yet. Which is the mini wizard mode for getting four of the modes going. Uh, the missions. Right now. Just feel better getting in the scoop. There we go. All right. Let's try to complete this. If we can complete this, might be uh might be uh in the 2 billion range here. There we go. All right, like I was saying before, I kind of want to avoid blue shots. But it is gone. Hit a blue shot, but it is okay. I want to live. Hit another blue shot. Now they're all blue. Don't drain me. Do have the ball save on the outlanes just in case. All right, let's try to backhand Luke. There we go. All right, we got some red shots. You know you're sucking when the game goes into ball search. And you've been flailing around this whole time. There we go. All right, that was a big big collect. All right, I want to hurry up and hit the shot. No ball save anymore. Here we go. All right, now I want to hit red and blue shots. I think anyways. That one's going to be juicy. Oh, come on. I'm not sure if this game is entirely stable. Usually Thank you. Thank you. That is impossible. All right, here's the big collect. Oh, that would have been nice. Of course. There we go. [screaming] Would have been nice like 2 minutes ago, guys. Hello. Oh, back in a Vader mode. All right, almost 800 million there. It's not bad. All right, it was nice enough to start the Stormtrooper one. All right, not a great not a great Darth Vader mode, but it's fine. Oh, that's gone. I can't Yeah, that's gone. I thought I was going to tilt, but I didn't. Oh, what's going on? Wonder how to This This game's going good. It's going good. Light my locks for Hoth. Darth Vader mode lit. Kind of want to get to the the second Death Star. Rebel, let's go. That was my goal. All right. All right, that should be like the Death Star now. Can I play the middle one again? Or haven't I played Oh, [] Maybe I haven't played that I thought I did. Oh, that was scary. All right. I'm just uh I'm just curious if I can play the the uh dark side multiball again. That would be kind of cool. Oof. No. Ah, shoot. Rip my dark side. I guess I can get back into a Darth Vader mode, but Probably shouldn't have played Lando, but that's okay. Good, time out. [laughter] Ah, it's two and a half. Could subscribe. I'll turn them off. All right. Thought I was timing out. There we go. Ah. This is a dangerous time for you, when you will be tempted by the dark side. We've already seen it. No, you knew the flippers weren't going to be strong enough. Oh, [] All right. I didn't realize I had an extra ball. Man. All right, I got a Vader mode lit. That's good. I need to make progress on one of these multi balls. Ah. Don't Oh, man. Serious? Uh, oh, I'm not going to Listen, what have you done with Wow, freaking spinners. Jeez. If this is a consular ship, where is the ambassador? Wow, I thought that was dead in the water. Here we go. She must have hidden the plans in the escape pod. Send a detachment down to retrieve them. See to it personally, commander. There will be no one to stop us this time. I know what I got to do. Do you know what I got to do? Be nice to shoot it up the middle. Oh my god. [laughter] Don't, no. What the [] I just can't seem to understand the force, but this dark side is not to be trifled I just lit another Vader mode. You know what, commander? Just hit the Luke shot. Thank you. That's right, but I needed that extra ball. I needed that. Don't do this, Luke. Come on. Give me a sign. Oh, it's going to All right. I thought this well, then. Another extra ball at That's good.

Let's Let's hope so. Let's hope so cuz Oh. Sounds easy. I I know, Travis. You You've probably gotten 6 billion on this at least. Probably. I saw Colin score like 10 billion. Now, I'm like 2 billion is nothing. I'm talking, C-3PO. All right. I got my Vader mode lit, which is probably a good thing. I got an extra ball possibility. I should also probably hit the Death Star here. It's come to my attention that I should get the extra ball. Oh, you don't. No, you don't. Not today. This is my house. Uh. Yeah, derp. Wow. Thanks, spinner. Yes. Oh, I thought that was it. I care if the combos are going to time out. Oh, come on. Move that target to the right a little bit. Thanks. Oh, maybe I could play Obi-Wan's mode. That's 28 shots again. I kind of really want to play Death Star II. Kind of want to get my dark side scoring going again. Kind of didn't want to do that. Okay. We're chilling. Yeah, advanced Death Star. Let's go. Don't drain. Ooh, I got Oh, [] Let's go with the Luke one. I don't think I've played the Luke one. Good work, Commander. All right, let's hit Han.

He is your master Three bill. Let's go for four. Oh, I wanted that shot so badly. There we go. Okay. Oh. Why don't you hit her shot? Uh, excuse me. What did he say? Uh, is that star shot timed? Doesn't look like it. Oh, but it gives an atom. What happened? [laughter] Super jackpot, 99 mil. Not a scratch on it, boys. And girls. Shh, save myself there.

[] I'm in I'm in the Obi-Wan mission. And there's a ball save. Fast blinky shots are worth more. So So, if I played the two Death Star multiballs, can I play another one? Does it like start over at the first one? Raymond's going to be so proud of me. I think. Dude, do 10 ball. I think I think I really suck at the right ramp. three, two, drain. [sighs] Yeah, electric. At least I had the the countdown or whatever. All right. We got two extra balls now. Stormtroopers will build up your bonus X, but I don't know anybody who's like ramming the that target all day long. I think you can build it up to like 10 X, but So, all right. [snorts] I'd love to get to a Jabba mode. I do not like that at all. I don't like that. Now I got to play Now I got to play Chewbacca's mode. All right. So, this is the mini Yeah, this is the mini wizard mode for the Falcon modes. First switch I made lights that shot for jackpot. Uh Mario I chose to be careful. First targets rotate all the shots. Of course it does [music] cuz that's all I hit. And the red is an asteroid? Is that what I just saw? Watch me hit asteroids, apparently. Am I supposed to hit asteroids? Okay. Phew. Uh, that's good.
