TL;DR

Carl streams rare Alvin G Mystery Castle, chasing Doom modes and discussing flipper heat issues.

Summary

Carl D'Angelo streams gameplay of Mystery Castle, a rare Alvin G pinball machine. The stream focuses on chasing the "Doom" mode (which doubles all scoring) and attempting to reach a second Doom in a single ball. Technical issues with flipper heat, audio setup, and game-specific mechanics are discussed throughout, along with tangential conversations about Farsight simulations, solid-state game classifications, voltage problems at conventions, and rare Alvin G titles.

Key Claims

Mystery Castle is a fairly rare game, unknown to the speaker before acquiring it
high confidence · Carl D'Angelo opening remarks: 'this is a very special game we're playing tonight we're playing mystery castle by Alvin G it's actually a fairly rare game um unknown to me'
The flippers on this Mystery Castle machine get very weak after just a couple games
high confidence · Carl multiple times: 'the flippers do seem to get weak after just a couple games'; 'the right flipper feels so weak now'
Jim Belsito modded the upper flipper feed area on this machine because otherwise there would be no shot feeding the upper flipper
high confidence · Carl: 'Jim modded this area so that the game would bounce up and you'd have a chance to make a shot otherwise there's no shot in this game that feeds that upper flipper'
Farsight made World Tour and Pistol Poker (both Alvin G titles) but not Mystery Castle
high confidence · Carl: 'can't believe that farsight made World Tour and Pistol poker and not mystery castle'
Double Doom (getting Doom twice in one ball) does nothing special—it does not grant additional bonuses beyond the standard Doom multiplier
high confidence · Carl after achieving double Doom: 'double Doom that's too bad didn't uh it didn't do anything' and later 'Welcome To The Mystery House you don't have to do the math five million it'd be great if it was it really would'
Alvin G is basically the Gottlieb company after they folded their other operations
medium confidence · Carl: 'this is made by Alvin G so it's basically what happened the it's the Gottlieb company after they you know folded their other operations'
At Indisk (a convention/event), voltage readings reached 150 volts at times, causing reset issues for Gottlieb games
high confidence · Carl: 'we got readings uh from the wall of 150 volts at times which is absurd... the all the godlibs games all The Godly games were having trouble uh resetting with resets so that's what happened during the match play event uh with a lot of games going down'

Signals

?
product_concern: Mystery Castle machine exhibits severe flipper overheating after just a couple games, becoming uncomfortably hot to touch. Carl expresses surprise this wasn't an issue at Indisk.
high · Multiple instances: 'the flippers do seem to get weak after just a couple games'; 'the right flipper feels so weak now'; 'I'm just stunned that people didn't have issues with the flippers getting too hot or them losing power during endisk'
?
operational_signal: Indisk convention center experienced voltage fluctuations reaching 150V with potential drops to 125V when air conditioning kicked in, causing widespread game reset failures particularly affecting Gottlieb machines during Match Play tournament.
high · Carl: 'we got readings uh from the wall of 150 volts at times which is absurd... we believe when the air conditioner kicked in it would drop down to like 125-ish but the all the godlibs games all The Godly games were having trouble uh resetting'
?
design_innovation: Jim Belsito modded Mystery Castle's upper flipper feed area with a bouncing mechanism to allow shots to reach the upper flipper, solving a critical design flaw where no natural ramp fed the upper flipper.
high · Carl: 'Jim modded this area so that the game would bounce up and you'd have a chance to make a shot otherwise there's no shot in this game that feeds that upper flipper'
?
gameplay_signal: Double Doom (achieving Doom mode twice in one ball) provides no additional bonus or special effect beyond the standard Doom multiplier, surprising Carl who expected some escalation.
high · Carl after achieving it: 'double Doom that's too bad didn't uh it didn't do anything' and 'it kind of wastes it doesn't it'

Sentiment

positive(0.72)— Carl is clearly enjoying the rare and unusual Mystery Castle, praising its game design and music despite technical frustrations. He finds the machine fun and interesting despite flipper heat issues. The tone is enthusiastic but somewhat tempered by mechanical problems and the challenging nature of the game. The broader discussion touches on industry issues (voltage at Indisk) with some frustration but analytical tone.

good evening welcome to I.E pinball my name is Carl D'Python Anghelo and welcome if it's your first time here this is a very special game we're playing tonight we're playing mystery castle by Alvin G it's actually a fairly rare game um unknown to me which is fantastic uh you probably saw it if you watch the end of streams um very unique interesting game you know I gotta fix this camera it is I did this last time it's like dragging for some reason sorry about that I was thrilled I got the DMD capture working through a DMD extender so direct I do not have direct audio so I have two microphones actually hooked up right to the speakers like um so hopefully the audio is good it's really loud for me but I think it's balanced it might be a little high um on the Stream we'll see so this game basically you are trying to run through the scavenger hunt collect all the items and get to the crown the Crown's the wizard mode hello everyone but as we discovered you just want the skull that's the Doom mode which double scoring for everything for the rest of the ball what ideas get that and then get crowned and then what I want to do today is try and get to a second Doom before draining see what happens I doubt it's going to do anything but why not give it a shot right and I'm ignoring these uh the skill shot there it's not enough points I feel to make it worth it potion is a hurry up so whatever shot is lit if you're going actually going for the modes and playing all the modes you're going to want to shoot anymore yeah I did that [Music] like that'll give me that hurry up which was at the end of it just about um next one is a oh my gosh I thought I drained there I did drain there didn't I had a Lazarus all right moving on Dragon man that's two warnings already that's not good it doesn't load well um I cannot post pass on this game I don't know if anyone in this cat found a way to postpass there we go that kind of worked out [Music] uh pop bumpers for a million we're just gonna ignore that let's keep going get more items more items cut them arms to shoot the drop targets so I'm gonna try not timing out everything today y'all I'm gonna offend zmac I'm sure if he comes in here actually play things very fun to play yeah it's so different than everything how you doing Chris if you notice here at the at my house it the flippers do seem to get weak after just a couple games oh oh Doom is lit Doom is lit so that lights it and now I need to shoot the left orbit good luck and we'll have our dancing skeletons unless I'm messing up and drain right now it should be should be very sad and then music's just so good let me know if uh if the audio is too loud too soft or it's like I said I don't have direct audio on this so it's a it was a bit of a you know I've done some recordings to see how it would sound but this mode in particular is really loud so all right audio is perfect awesome how you doing Fred the main game particularly [Music] so the idea now is to get all the way through everything all right that's the hole and um and come back all the way around to another Doom see what happens to see that nothing's gonna happen because that's what's gonna happen the uh oh the the jackpot I don't care you have this shirt too huh they sent it to me for uh I didn't go to the tournament but it was sent to me when um for the software that uh I let them use 10 billion and we'll never find out the score until I drain out of this ball uh I cannot stage on this game and Fred I just don't like chasing jackpots in general I really am I've tried to break myself of that habit try to get that last jackpot because it seems like that's where uh disaster often strikes so gesture is just uh all the shots are lit for 5 million normally and this is 10 million cents that's the Doubler I know it's 50 million I know I know but we're not shooting for 50. I mean let that go all right [Music] single biggest shot in the game is 200 million actually during Crown from what I know um that's 2x on the crown on the final shot or something like that and it actually says 200 million or at some point it says it has restarting a game on 2x oh you know I don't think you can I I remember I tried holding the button down to restart if they and I couldn't do it so I don't think the game has that painting's valuable and always changes when I get ready to shoot it right it's over there now um it's gonna move once I shoot this leftover I know it and it always does it must be it's like it must uh [Music] that's dead [Music] all right where's my next now we're getting the tough ones that it's only one item shot [Music] so now I'm using I'm going to use change item to move that shot this target right right there it's kind of hard to read on the screen a bit so now it's on the left orbit perfect 10 million points or points [Music] his magic castles must run Mystery Castle Magic Castle Magic Castle you mean the real magic castle [Music] oh boy okay so I said I wasn't gonna Time stuff out but this thing this month's the uh Death Mode right uh where am I I'm uh come on show me my inserts I'm just two away I think yeah yeah I've got the gold and then the crown sweet is there a game called Magic Castle I actually don't know it's like Pandora's Box before it goes all right uh right Ram the problem is if I hit change item it goes It goes I think it goes right to left so it'll go to that shot I'll have to hit that Target three times so I will try to shoot this ramp [Laughter] oh yes best way to start the first game like that [Music] well here's Kath or crown it's not double oh yeah yeah Zachariah that's right that's right I forgot about that one so these are 100 million yeah exactly and then they're they're 200 if you've got that doubler right come on kick the ball kick the ball because that would give me the jackpot I think no sometimes and the target to re-light the kickbacker it's some of the hardest targets I I just I can never find them [Music] box [Music] multipliers Max Dash D huh I didn't even notice that it's the only mode I've got time out today I think somebody would get crowned look at that [Music] damn it and I cannot backhand that ramp it seems like it should be possible oh awesome that gave me my Kickback man that's that oh my gosh twice now that's done that there's no I don't know how that bounces back I really don't there's no rubber there's no rubber post down there then the game is not quite level at the top either it seems to have a slight lean to the right when coming down the top question is had the jackpot moved by the time I got I was going to get it there [Music] all right it's just how the apron fit that's how you came back no all right uh hopefully that'll slam when I hit the lock bar isn't too loud either on stream since I'm using actual mics for the uh for the game audio [Music] yeah I know that's worth it five million oh and like I said not worth it um it changed item targeting it's like hook five million yeah any particular objectives I'd like to get doomed twice in the same ball so that I can uh see what happens I'll make it it made it nice [Music] should probably change the um change the mode of the uh it set the tournament mode I think from when we had the high stakes thing where it started [Music] so I can get random awards from the uh mystery ah hit the game dancing skeleton yeah yeah get it and then never know your score [Music] that's what's great Shields or Castle my shield what am I think it's Shield because it's a shield those targets seem like they're should be a lot more dangerous than what they are oh Buffalo pinball welcome Raiders you're watching the best game in the world right now right for the worst game if you talk to a certain uh certain distributor well welcome thanks for the rain uh they're drops yeah the castle these are drop targets over here and the bottom two actually opened up a path to the shooter Lane which is interesting Dalton that is possible in this game I will give it a shot today for you how about that all right all right we've got Doom all right we're skeletons foreign [Music] [Applause] [Music] I just took a warning because of that so I'm on two warnings [Music] all right now it's a bombard this is a you can't really stage in this game uh it doesn't matter you can't stage on it so it's it's not easy to um wow that one through um to get those last two jackpots even with Jim's mods on the game [Music] so if no one if you go if you don't know what so this game normally when it comes when you shoot around and comes out of this shot it doesn't normally bounce up to the flipper Jim modded this area so that the game would bounce up and you'd have a chance to make a shot otherwise there's no shot in this game that feeds that upper flipper I had to gather categorize this game as good or not good it sits in the good it sits in the good cheesy good but good d-mac was doing two balls and right flipper then over under yeah exactly yeah There Goes My Kickback so I should probably use most of this multiball to try and relight that shot now man yeah just because the game is rare doesn't mean it's got absolutely pistol poker is a pile same company [Music] um I mean this one's got issues too for sure but it's fun Slappy white thank you thank you for the tier one sub oh I got I didn't expect to get this oh that's right this is a race to get good initials in here [Music] I still want uh it's been so long since I played um World Tour Alvin G's World Tour I think that's the full name of it um but um I was talking about earlier in The Flipper buttons they they're they're like little coils that pulse with the meat during a multiballer during specific Parts in the game it's not the entire game but it's a really really unique tactile sensation on The Flipper buttons I raised to get initials equals all good yeah my initials are attribute to Keith elwin designer today is Keith's birthday it is who makes this game this is made by Alvin G so it's basically what happened the it's the Gottlieb company after they you know folded their other operations I don't know exactly the history of it yeah Alvin G so it's not actually God leave it's Alvin G [Music] another one it's in already I can kind of feel the flippers getting a little weak as it is [Music] great episode I got leap at silverball Chronicles I haven't listened to that one I suppose or the Chipmunks so you see this is I mean this is points if you can you can do that as long as you want you can keep making that shot over and over and over again for the skill shot what's the audio on this game the audio is just the best [Music] can't believe that farsight made World Tour and Pistol poker and not mystery castle I didn't know that I didn't know they made those other ones before I say what happened to farsight I assume they just folded right it's interesting they were uh they were headquartered in Big Bear which is not too far from here up in the up in the mountains here in SoCal where you actually get snow in Southern California [Music] man that was a horrible game Far Side still exists just no more pinball Welcome To The Mystery House yeah that's kind of a tap kind of turning mode change oh I should I should I should um yeah let's do that sure uh um enter I haven't used this menu before so this is going to be interesting there are four features okay it's not feature thank you it's so polite I'm just curious what else there is extra balls where are even extra balls let's let's put this to one uh yeah yeah why not why not two still learning is and that's it huh yeah that's gonna be it all right yes I just turned into tournament mode off exactly right thanks for the sub best pinball that's very kind of you to say there are so many streamers out there that see I still start on potion though so I I how are these selected these I'm pointing to the shot I just made um why does it start with I mean I know it didn't always start at the same thing at indisk so I'm curious what the uh what the order is oh my goodness I'm gonna need to take like big long 15 minute breaks between games I think [Music] okay coat of arms foreign it's true this machine might crash at some point and master thanks for gifting us up there [Music] oh oh all right pile of gold [Music] sack excuse me not pile sack all right so I'm finding the alley pass is the better way to uh transfer between flippers shoot oh this is not good that's not good we're gonna give it a good shove and lose it anyways we're talking about Eric's uh Batman ridiculous game that was ridiculous all right Doom Doom is lit oh don't drain me here because you lose it you lose it if you drain right there all right all right skeleton time it is not mine this game is uh Jim belsito oh got the hard one of the hard ones no don't drain that quickly damn it I'll give one more at least all right no more scores no more scores [Music] that didn't come back up when I looked away did it [Music] oh extra ball is a score based thing that's that's interesting I was wondering how extra ball was going to be uh collected because I don't remember you know I don't see any answers for it oh yeah I do no yeah the right ramp section ball 5 million there's no ball save on that huh oh there it is let's go see I thought there was five billion the laughter in the background just cracks me up oh yeah oh yeah Grant this is a definitely a uh an oddball game five million no question there let's see what this mystery is going to give since the the long run tournament mode could have some interesting stuff here oh yeah two million very interesting I swear that shot changes just to mess with me you recognize the voice from Cactus Jacks [Laughter] oh no cone for the alley pass that was an alien star Drain Welcome To The Mystery House total alien star Drain there all right see I started with potion again but I know it doesn't always start with clothes man kid you know I felt him and they didn't seem that uh I mean they're definitely strong when the game first starts but they didn't feel um hot like the other game's good I put the fan cuts on oh that's not making it [Music] no don't okay good five billion I timed at the very end of that mode though not the whole thing I did say I wasn't gonna Time Slips I know oh boy [Music] every time anything out no with with doom running oh but it's only the the last value you get to sorry I thought I was getting like 12 million for each uh you know whatever the value is that's what I'm getting for each drop Target receptor [Music] oh yes ah [Music] bro shoot the ramp all right no timing out we're going for it five million points woo I'm rich oh shoot the ramp the music is is fantastic I I really like the music a lot no what my alley pass is not working as well now huh [Music] [Applause] nice keep this going [Music] oh only one more shot for mega mode that's the uh like the regular multiball right ramp for that [Music] all right give me something good extra ball lit all right let's go for it I'm always trying to get two dancing skeletons on the screen uh okay come on extra bar extra ball get an extra ball in your future and that lights my mega mode too there we go [Music] shoot the wrap now we come back [Music] I love the ball safe good luck you'll need it all right two skeletons and now we're down to one no grace period whatsoever all right painting painting's valuable I don't weren't nudging too much now going up the ramp [Music] oh goody Pandora's this is the only one I said I am gonna timeout the question is where's my next item shotgun to be it's probably going to be on that side or the inner loop oh good nice [Music] okay change item oh that's right okay twice is fine price is fine how to rank this one with the other Alpha Gates I just haven't played them in a long time I remember I enjoyed World Tour but I I would bet that this one's better than all of them I just want the haptics on voltura in every game all right Colonel's lit all right chicks Crown is always good to get all right what's the multiplier hold on Max oh Matt instead of saying m-a-xed I think they just go Max 200 million 200 million [Music] I love that they gave it a special call out the double double jackpot uh where's that shot go now okay it's gonna stay there for me nope [Music] come on go around go around all right so we're working towards another Doom now but again this is where they order the items I wonder about you know what how does it pick which where to go you've never seen a pistol poker Garage Band huh I played I played uh GarageBand uh at John weeks uh old loft in Long Beach that could gosh that must have been 10 years ago at least it's crazy to think that only place I've ever seen that game and I don't remember it at the Museum either that's what's interesting it's probably there and I just don't remember you're gonna go on that left ramp I Know It come on move move it's gonna wait till I hit something all right release the flipper and then it's gonna move no it's just gonna time out on that because it's not gonna move [Music] nice good thing is I have catapult so I do have a slight safety net there go all right okay all right Rambo will it take yes [Music] um you know what I want to light my catapult bottom Target there's three targets right there but they don't line up with the inserts either it's like the top one isn't it's not there the target's actually like down here it knows when you're cradling exactly um but give me Doom come on I want my second Doom [Music] oh no oh no oh no that's not good oh [Music] yes yes give me the catapult use the catapult nice shot [Music] after that Target I have to I felt like it just went from a 100 shot to another hard shot it like didn't it didn't give me an easier shot okay there it is candelabra see what the mystery is no the thought let's not shoot the rap I want my double Doom come on come on school next skulls go foreign [Music] here goes if I can get that left orbit we'll have double Doom oh come on I want to see four skeletons come on I know it's not gonna happen game crashes all right so should be it would be 200 million if it was double double like that [Music] the right flipper feels so weak now that I don't feel like okay okay I might have a chance here [Music] heck yes 200. [Music] down all right what's my score you actually want to avoid double Doom exactly yeah it kind of wastes it doesn't it [Music] yay one million oh oh that's not good that's really not good okay need a gift of the skeleton they're everywhere dos bacons [Music] pumped again the cone has returned to him I guess just yes it has [Music] I put it back up I don't know why but I did I didn't even see what oh all right Chester [Music] it was not 4X it was you don't have to do the math five million it'd be great if it was it really would but probably lucky you didn't crash right [Music] billion five billion oh no [Music] all right right ramp next drain next oh one million what's a 2.0 it's just the second version of it I I have an older version that's uh the one that's from exploding kittens and then this one's from a board game the one that I use now um board game called cone of shame I haven't actually played the game [Music] which is what's funny I think about mega mode mega mode wow another million foreign no I moved it I moved it to the hard shot oh God almost died too I still want to know how you play this game without the mod that Jim made you can't possibly get through the castle you just can't do it without anything feeding that flipper you can't get the jackpot you can't I mean yeah you could probably get the scavenger hunt that way there's no way you can do the whole game all right I can make it oh wow that's interesting that was a slower shot and it I didn't think it would make it through that's two warnings in this ball this God damn almost two crowns I needed two more [Music] you should be able to oh hurry hurry foreign well dang double Doom that's too bad didn't uh it didn't do anything you can earn some Channel points or lose some Channel points I gotta let the flippers cool for just a bit I mean actually I'm going to feel it and see if they're how they're doing am I gonna burn my finger right now oh oh the the right one's really freaking hot yeah I burnt my finger if I held him on yeah Super Jackpot all five Doom shots so next game while I get all five Doom shots so basically the the 200 million point jackpot oh wait no Doom is 100 million point jackpot right this is an old game would this be classified as a solid state in uh Texas sorry Colin if you're watching I think it's I think it's hilarious that they put they're putting uh Beatles and TNA as solid states in the uh Texas tournament but yeah and this yeah it's an old game as as in uh Zach can't sell this game so he doesn't like it in the I still it still cracks me up so much thinking about it and just how it's like he was so offended that this is the last game in in disc it was great the ball solidly States it will not go up any ramps hmm ah but isn't there a TNA with ramps out there I don't know I don't think I don't think uh Solid State Games had uh spinning discs with magnets in the middle either though right well I like that Dr curlytech that's really good it's really good all right let me I'll put a prediction up let's do that let's do the uh thank you get all five yes no give you five minutes hot take TNA can be in solid state but beetles can't why why can TNA be in solid state but Beatles Can't I'm just curious yeah street level games exactly exactly that's what they are the display so that's just but but TNA has an LCD also and and there's a streaming mode where the scores go on the display so you don't even need those uh those numeric displays on there so what's your next reason I'm just curious for me it's um the games can play long they uh they just the feel the feel of the game but then you then you get into are the remakes like the upcoming fathom is that uh do you call that a modern game or is that still a solid state TNA absolutely plays long in the Beatles absolutely yeah you could disconnect the LCD on TNA yeah you could imagine implementing either with truly only em Hardware that's just that's I I am still fascinate me just how how they were designed and built and just incredible machines all the relays under that I I I you know I have a hard enough time fixing them and I'm trying to understand you know I can make my way around them but to think of someone designing a machine and getting all that to work with just relays is incredible oh welcome we got double Dooms Vu and it did nothing it did nothing so yeah I'm really surprised at how hot these flippers are because this this made it through indisk without any trouble although it could have could have been the funky power I'm gonna feel these things again the funky power at the um I can almost hold my finger on it without burning myself now um the power at the convention center was just crazy uh we got readings uh from the wall of 150 volts at times which is absurd splickety you wish you could find a TNA to play Yeah there aren't enough on location and I really enjoy TNA it's a fun game it's a really fun game if you shrink down the relays enough it becomes an fpga you can just program it [Laughter] [Music] yeah exactly we we measured 150 out of this I I and then uh we we believe when the air conditioner kicked in it would drop down to like 125-ish but the all the godlibs games all The Godly games were having trouble uh resetting with resets so that's what happened during the match play event uh with a lot of games going down it's the voltage issue was just really strange I know the uh the event next door they had at one point uh a match uh the consoles reset during the match like a big championship match what was the age the game had to be to qualifying Classics for Papa um good question I mean it's more I think you go by release year more than age of course um I want to say like an 84 before like high speed would be considered a like a modern and they wouldn't put that in the classics Bank I know we stretched it a little this year because of at Indus just because of game selection because of game availability so that's why um like victory was in in the match play I think there's still one Barcade that was playing too easily the feed for the building must have been set for a bunch of load but it was way lower than expected so it didn't sag the normal ranges yeah that's yeah most likely but we called the men we we said hey we're getting this they said they had their Engineers come out and didn't do anything so I'm wondering if it'll be fixed next time if we go there again all right how much time is left in the prediction almost up get your uh get your bets in oh it's about split down the middle too 11.4k versus 11k right now all right so get in Doom shoot five shots one two three four five the two hard ones are those the TNA they had a free play Florida was odd only played it once but couldn't do any backhands for my other flipper I wonder if they droop the flippers on purpose on it then if they had three phases they would have to rewire the Taps on the Transformer that steps it down to 120 volts God okay I'm gonna drain that adjuster that one's coming back of course I get Pandora's Box sitting here that's the next mode why it doesn't matter you're gonna BET 14 000. [Music] oh no is that how many points you need to get a cone [Music] yeah I'm I mean I'm just stunned that people didn't have issues with the flippers getting too hot or them losing power during endisk because they certainly are having issues here with them getting too hot fading away [Music] oh I got that I got it I got it yes [Music] it changed right oh this mode this mode just kills me it's like I finally get lined up it's gone all right make a boat [Music] dude the ram really want this after uh good luck I have to get the Doom oh well good practice for Doom though right oh George thanks for the follow if you remember correctly as day went on the left orbit feed the upper was working less and less but all ramps worked perfectly okay [Music] bye oh [Music] sweet oh so it ends after three uh after three hurry UPS we're gonna fall um what mode is lit there must be a light out foreign [Music] Idol okay it was that one I missed it somehow the uh prediction doesn't count if I don't get to if I don't make it to do so let's play another game if I don't get to the mode how are you gonna know if I I do it or not is that I should have that's the funny thing with all these bets

I've had it where I get I get doom and then Crown split and I don't get to play my Doom cause I think I'm gonna get yeah I think I'm gonna get screwed by this 5 million I think it's not going to give

we go [Music] I don't think we'll ever know that mystery award in fact the audio is still going for the mystery you can hear it whenever you do a flick from the lower flipper to the upper I don't think I'm gonna try right now oh what was that was a good run there I'd say all right where's my shot thanks game time thanks for the prime sub Mystery Castle the game that I was having any idea what screw you have is overrated and less important than dancing skeletons good luck need it [Music] all right painting's gonna be my first thing here huh painting painting painting painting stop all stop stop you didn't stop not listening [Music] All Eyes I'm moving jackpot yeah yeah yeah [Music] Dragon Idol Idol not final so weird to me five million boom boom boom 5 billion what's the what was that what what's the order of the actual items it's not good all right which let me give you two sub notifications in a row for some reason hey that's twitch I've noticed that too oh the game is fun it's fun flippers are getting a little weak but it's fun this game easy to find no this game is extremely difficult to find on the secondhand Market all right let me close out that prediction this is a very rare game all right who gets all the points who gets all the channel points Jermaine and two others that's why Jermaine did not like that I was going to say if I didn't get doomed it was gonna be the next game all right Welcome To The Mystery House why no no no never never laughs [Music] great game great game you're down 10 000 points this year sorry it's a hard thing to do it really is um [Music] I swear he says Dragon vital title there's an F there it's not an i oh gosh potion Dragon Idol Bell coat of arms scepter gold candelabra skull goblet mirror crystal ball Jesters predator's box painting all right pinball thanks for the raid welcome we are playing tournament dollar darling mystery castle and just having fun the game's just fun full of arms [Music] where's my next shot oh I've got two shot targets [Music] oh shoot all right supposedly it's in that order huh well guess what I've got the gold and it's I I don't have the scepter so it's not that order I had the coat of arms last oh but the pop-up has changed the current lip okay realize that because the pop-ups aren't active [Music] don't drain now I've got mega mode lit oh let's get this painting all right I'll just take mega mode what do I think about the P3 I need to play one of the new ones I'm I'm very interested to play Weird Al absolutely I'd love to play Heist when I played Lexi light speed I was not thrilled with that game I didn't like how it felt I'm just being honest here but I'm very much looking forward to the new the newer flippers and see if that makes a difference for me I've been told it should [Music] well I get one I don't think I'll get one so one of my issues with it is once you buy a P3 your money is locked into there because of the how it's a platform [Music] you're always going to be buying or you're never gonna sell it basically I don't think you're gonna be able to sell it for what you paid for tonight I just I I feel like I it you know where's all my other games I I could choose to sell them at any time and it won't affect what am I trying to stay here I'm making sense in my head but I don't think my um saying it out loud very well [Music] I guess the way I look at is all my games are worth so much but if I have a P3 I'm never going to be selling that because I'm going to want to wait for the next cheap module which which is great I I love that the modules are going to be three thousand dollars fantastic because it's a package deal once you have more than one module so people expect a discount I don't know if it's good for the discount specifically so I feel like once once I have money in that system my money's gone that's it it's like gone maybe I'm being silly I definitely want to play I mean it looks great it really does the thing that while the pan is plausibly an investment that can rise all value P3 is guaranteed Sun cost thank you sunk cost that's that's that that's how you put it yes yes sunk cost that is perfect what is the deposit yeah it probably is it's probably just me to be honest so I'm not saying I'm being logical or reasonable with that probably isn't oh no stop all right I'm trying to shoot the scoop so that I can then lower that flipper just shoot that shot there we go I was trying to do three releases Mystery Castle too then I'll be in [Music] that's why I am very excited to play play Weird Al I have not liked any of the other games they released so but Weird Al looks very different and I haven't played Heist I still want to play Heist [Music] yeah they're not exactly easy to find on location you know and the ones I played on location have just been corn Bush red I mean like horrible hey that that item was there and it moved it there that was mean [Music] oh come on overall assessment of Rick and Morty I don't I don't have a place well I will I will have a place Ace Gogi will be getting uh on tilt uh Shane there he's a distributor now for P3 so he'll be getting one so I'll get to play it might get to stream it I don't know how difficult it is to get all the stuff you know the direct feeds hooked up on that but Rick and Morty I enjoy Rick and Morty I do I think it's a fun game it needs to be set up properly people think I hate spooky games but I don't hate games [Music] I see an extra ball in your future well my future uh what do I have left after this Pandora's Box oh yay [Music] am I selling my GNR I I you know I'm the game became a real grind to me and I hate saying that I mean don't you're doing it um no it's sitting in the other room right now it's the first time I've ever moved it um I don't know I might if something comes along that I want to buy I mean I've got my own Toy Story we all know Toy Story coming up so something has to go for that and I don't know you need help setting up a Rick and Morty okay boo and zmac you should you should have the cone for that prediction yeah so Rick and Morty I mean I I had a pre-order on one then uh Shane he's Gogi uh loan me his because we were on lockdown his place was you know the restaurant was closed so he just decided that I could go and grab it [Music] um and I streamed it for what three months or four months or something like that and I enjoyed it while I had it I mean I had to fix a lot of stuff in the game but then I sold my pre-order I actually traded my pre-order for a uh for a Jurassic Park that's how I got my Jurassic Park Pro back in the day and I don't regret that one bit [Music] just come on go around there we go wow [Music] what will they showcase Toy Story game time says tomorrow who knows who knows it's coming though that's all we know we know it's Toy Story 100 million yeah Bill the the I think that's been fixed now right but yeah that you couldn't cradle on the right flipper you couldn't hold the right flipper up and use the magazine that kind of drove me a little nuts 100 million [Music] this is an odd platform issue right 100 million 100 100 million but yeah if I remember there was a release that that kind of fixed that you put in a larger fuse in there [Music] I mean think when I was browsing the release notes a while ago I think I saw that and me for moving shot but thanks for moving the easier shot 100 million [Music] I'm not going back here I missed some stuff I think you like to think the playfield's on my wall are games that I've destroyed at some point ah who's making Toy Story jjp will be making Toy Story and no I don't have any concerns with quality [Music] 100. boom [Music] I love the Bells [Music] have another skeleton dance yet we've been doing The Skeleton Dance all day long or there's a Rudy making Toy Story uh who knows who knows what's in there I mean by Pandora you mean Carl just gonna I don't I I'll pop my head that's about all you're gonna get out of me there's not enough Channel points in the world to make me dance in front of you [Music] Dragon vital final I still say it says vital [Music] does jjp tend to have a bunch ready to ship the the first time they ever did that was at GNR first time they ever did it um so there's no telling what'll happen this time around foreign [Music] probably three right Walker you remember being about a four month wait yeah that sounds about not right from us [Music] foreign about the price for Toy Story I mean it sounds like the rumors are putting it in like eleven five which is uh so expensive [Music] just got an Avengers last week tie over until Godzilla comes have to ship something if you're in a Toy Story haven't sold any machines yet not sure you read apart with them how to be able to get over the emotional investment of selling a good game I mean for me it's you can buy most of everything again so if you get rid of a game you can probably buy it double line except there are exceptions like pirates jjp pirates you know hard to find another one of those for a decent price right [Music] what would a Toy Story you know I have to think if it's a if if the game has Talking Heads it's gonna be um just my guess is the um the puppets from Toy Story 4. the creepy the creepy puppets I forget their names I forget what they're called or whatever [Music] oh good luck sorry has the buzz Spanish switch you're out I'm still part of that movie are you in otherwise is that what you're saying game time they made four you have four toy stories not four skeletons but yeah are we just ignoring that fourth one exists kind of like Indiana Jones all right so so you're saying if they made four could have made Gabby Gabby with the creepy doll yeah but it's not the the mouth right the mouth I'm thinking those marionettes next to Gabby Gabby so if you're interested in Toy Story if you're interested in that game and it comes back and it's just Toy Story 4. the whole game is only Toy Story 4. are you still interested you oh come on sure I'll take a last one jackpot why not [Music] all right yeah Doom's over [Music] what if it's just the new Buzz Lightyear movie instead yeah judgmental no I'm not I'm not judgmental whatsoever there [Music] I just remember Indy four being one of the worst things I ever saw if I remember [Music] dmac you think Toy Story 4 is good all right I'm just curious what because most people I don't I met all right one my 2x crown most people don't like Toy Story 4 as much as the other three so that's why I'm curious throwing it out there it's not the worst thing I've ever seen but it it's it's not my favorite thing in the world let's just say that I just remember shaking my head a lot like oh my gosh thank you [Music] worst movie I ever saw what was that what was it I've only walked out of one movie before I uh damn it what's the name of the thing cabin fever I think it was called was emac even alive for the previous three [Music] what happens with deep roots zombie game for auction is a secret Toy Story pin and it only works when everyone leaves the room [Music] just that ramp when you make this feels nice I like that ramp five million it could have been 10 if I didn't mess up up that's dead you saw Toy Story 3 in theaters I saw three story one in theaters I stuck out I remember the day to go see it I got busted for going to see it because it was the first CG film and I was big into computers I'm still so it's like a Marvel they're gonna give me crown no because potions running things potion we're gonna wait here we're gonna wait I know how cute yeah I know [Music] yeah I had the car in high school and I I took it to the theater after before cell phone before I could call anybody to let them know where I was whoops [Music] ggp could do eye detection and have you close your eyes to make things happen with the toys you know you know what shocks me is how many people don't don't like the cameras on the jgb games how many complaints uh I've heard about this 100 million I mean that selfie mode darling fantastic people you know I've heard so many people are bended by it I'm warning yeah you're warning me again [Music] that shot's Gonna Change when we shoot up there I know it it's Gonna Change we're ugly no but it's not about that it's just oh someone's gonna why did someone can see you playing and they see their that's not it people don't like having their photos taken without consent [Music] other people think it's hilarious I mean I've seen people crack up with that mode [Music] believe me if people have a cell phone they're getting tracked they need to realize that to me [Music] that one's fun you want cameras on mystery castle for the moving eyes mode yeah yeah oh I'm gonna let these cool down for just just a tiny bit they're getting really weak you can't stand jjp how Fargo why not what's wrong with it why can't you stand jjp all right I think I got one more game for this so what prediction do you want to throw up there what do you want to wager on get two crowns I think that's the possibility I don't want to do the five jackpots and doom again because I feel bad for that one because that's so difficult I didn't play mega mode in that uh in that last game um that's because I'm not shooting the right ramp because the Flipper's getting a little weak from the heat you're a distributor for them and you're still waiting on a DNR for a customer who ordered it on the date that is horrible that is and that doesn't make any sense to me right now because they've you know the distributor here has gotten games you know so many of them even ones that aren't you know specifically ordered for customers he had them in stock for a while so I'm very curious about that that that doesn't make much sense can you tell us other stories about getting in trouble for cute reasons or stories about how we are always being tracked while you wait for Flippers to recharge I can't because nothing's going to come to mind unless it just you know randomly pops in my head does the video banding compression bother you on Godzilla yeah the the the encoding could be better it could it could absolutely be better no question uh it's not I'm not watching it all the time so it's not when I see it I'm like oh you could do better but at the same time I think they aren't putting large enough SD cards in the games which is why they're having to compress it I'd have to ask uh you know we can ask someone at Stern get the reason for that I'd be curious your 10 other people got their machines but he didn't that's that's yeah that's really bizarre and considering that run is ending it sounds like it's ending right now I have to imagine it's Gotta come but that still doesn't T walrus hello hey probably wasn't enough or whatever I hate just standing around [Music] skip let's go shot all right let's try for two crowns this game should start her with potions again [Music] distributor favoritism is a known issue with jjp [Music] GNR prices will not Skyrocket there's too many of them out there that game will not uh and that's the other reason I'm actually considering selling mine at some point because there's so many of them out in the world that it won't be hard to pick up another one prediction idea get a certain skill shot value that's you want me to shoot that right ramp over and over which is just so [Music] look I can't even get one [Music] if you get zero you guessed correctly I got one because I didn't hit single switch there oh two we're not doing a prediction on this thanks for the idea promise you two CES also yeah the CE thing was a bit of a mess that was that was sitting behind drop Spears account has a ramp from the auto plunger oh that makes sense now because I'm warning I remember I've gotten ramp that's counted ramps [Music] I didn't know how Let's test that that was the time I'll try ah where is it okay so it's just I thought it was at the second target it's just the first in like half of the second I messed that up [Music] five million make a mode mega mode you heard they have GNR sitting at the factory ready to go now huh wouldn't surprise me foreign [Music] yeah you have not had good luck it sounds like whatsoever that's not good get behind the drop Target value to up to a certain amount uh bonus multipliers are from finishing Castle going behind it gives you something it gives you like two million years tiny bite it's not worth it normally how's that it screams that here I hope it's not too loud on the uh stream [Music] I mean it lets you know if you're in Doom ah damn it okay so crystal ball is the extra ball huh where's my 210 million [Music] Fargo jeez that's just sounds horrible yeah extra bot 300 million did not happen so I don't know what that thing was saying it's fine with me I don't want to score based sexual anyways wait it didn't give me my extra ball that was lit it was lit oh yeah oh yeah they start taking on people's info to start shipping out the shirts have started shipping us kingpinter you I've sent you two emails you I haven't gotten yours yours is like the I have one other guy that I just got the info for like a week and a half ago and then yours send me your info thank you for saying something um check your spam I'm assuming both my emails went spam for you but yeah they've definitely been shipping out not the pin monk shirts but the um my shirts the stuff that I was giving away the pin monk shirts uh if you ordered a medium I know pin monk was buying more medium shirts so you can send those out I think the rest of the stuff went out I'm not too sure all right game time when you were a kid you wanted nothing more to know why your mom thought it was so funny when they said laser Envy in Toy Story looking back it's not even that funny [Music] foreign [Music] yeah King King Banner uh iepinball gmail.com foreign crap crap crap crap crap crap crap boom boom this music is going to be stuck in my head all night long or give me a t-shirt hello clown why what what's up what's up did I missed something oh you expect the yeah boo I see that now [Music] yes I'm wearing pinball Showdown that they sent to me I did I've only been to one pinball Showdown it was the uh I went because I was trying to qualify for the I forget which IPA it was it was the one that uh Todd mcculloch's house in uh Washington um so I went to Colorado which is like my first big pinball trip that I ever took remember I took second in the classics to Donovan's Step at the time [Music] and I bombed on the modern bombed in finals against wardrick I didn't know who anybody was at the time only that we both played fishtails and [Music] like four million to five million or something but you know what else was weird that tournament was um oh thanks job for moving again um you had to play the games back to back two in a row like you couldn't you know if I wanted to play fishtails to qualify on I couldn't play it just once I had to play twice I was forced to play it twice is the weirdest thing I mean why why do that yeah it used to be a really big a big tournament yeah exactly [Music] wow I got a hundred thousand shoot in the bridge there the display actually made a point to say a hundred thousand written [Music] 100 . see yep I got that I got that uh like you said Ray that ramp came from the um came from the um job Target use English you know words you can speak [Music] they love adding weird things like multi-table just [Music] multi-table tournaments [Music] come on game I know you want to change that shot what's multi-table multi-table is a form of finals where um instead of playing your games in uh you know one game all four players play and then then you wait you play in the next game it's it's you're playing all the games at the same time so you'll be player one on game one player two on game two player three on game three and so on and you don't get to see the other players playing because you're playing the other games so it speeds it up tremendously for it's just you don't get to watch other people play you don't get to chat with the other players it changes the dynamic of the of the game of the tournament so if you shoot through the pops does it feed the upper flipper no it does not it does not there's no feed up there and no this doesn't have a center post there's no Center Post here which is why I'm still stunned that the ball is you know come back up a couple things you still don't see how people think this speeds anything up typically we just went one person to finish the game exactly exactly yeah most of your finals are simultaneous not the same at all and you still don't think it saves that much time yeah that one time that one time but yeah I'm not a fan I I've actually said I'm not gonna I'm gonna boycott those tournaments now I just I I can't do it I I I get I don't like them [Music] it just feels like you're hurrying to play Pinball I was hoping that uh you know Josh would actually kind of kill that format a bit with the with an IPA change but it doesn't seemed like it that's two last night you had set my final top eight with four games simultaneous I had to play two games in each group then switch because there's only six games available oh my gosh even better [Music] thank you I see point I think that's it isn't it that's it all right I think the flippers have uh have had enough glad Showdown moved away from that format absolutely yeah absolutely this is a fun game I'm glad Jim let me uh let me borrow it I'll I gotta take it back to him soon though just so I've got too many games here right now ah so yeah thanks for coming Dr curly tech let's uh let's go raid someone shall we fun game definitely a fun game ultimate I'll have to clip one of those games and put it on YouTube because there's no real good footage on YouTube apart from um the other stuff let's go over her who do you want to see you know we're I'm a little earlier ending here I'm gonna go send you over to pimball network so you can watch Joel play some Rush and I said it before but you should listen to Joel's podcasts he does a really good job along with a lot of other people but but I I just pay attention to this stuff can I stream another DNR prefer goes sure I can I can I can I have no time that it's gonna go you know I don't know when when that's gonna happen the my other frustration with the game is the code there are a lot of things that need to be revised on the code and it hasn't had anything done in so long and that has pirates pirates has the beta now but the beta is just slightly different than the last one and it's they're just stalling on the code I feel unfortunately I hate saying it I don't like saying it but it's it's just what it is ggp just seems behind the ball on code updates lately all right anyways have a good night King Bender you as well squalito there is a pirates beta you can join the open jjp Beta group we look on pin side for that thread and you'll find information on how to join it and yeah it's new code all right take care see you later
