Hello, my name is Joel Engelberth and this is the Flip N Out Pinball YouTube channel. My brother and I stream every Wednesday night, so if you click the live tab you can see any of our past streams. And we've been very fortunate to stream this game the last two weeks. My dad even joined in on the fun, as he is a Metallica fan. This is Metallica Remastered. This is actually the limited edition machine. So it already has the expression speaker lights put in and the expression lights which you can kind of see here along the sides Which are available for the premium as well. Bye. Bye. Bye game is gorgeous Basically, they took the original Metallica premium game and they redid the entire art package They tweaked some of the different parts of the of the game to improve them make them more reliable As well as they switched up the sparky Mac to match the artwork These magnets are bigger compared to the old ones, so those are more consistent and reliable. New hammer sculpt. They messed with the mouth of the snake a little bit. Just honestly, they took everything that's great about the original game and they made it better. I've had a blast with this game. I've only had it a few weeks, but I'm really loving playing this game. This game is fast. This game is high energy. If you like Metallica's music at all, I have no doubt that you would enjoy this game. And it's proven itself. The code was already fantastic, and then Raymond Davidson took it a whole other level and added two new kind of little mini modes to it. And then they're going to add Blackened, which will happen after you complete all four multiballs. There's another kind of mini wizard mode in the game that they haven't put in yet. This is currently .93 code, but honestly, the game is incredible. And yeah, so let's dive in and talk about what is Metallica Pinball. Metallica is a very simple easy to understand just step up let it rip have a good time pinball machine it's a fan layout so this is a John Borg design so we have two inlanes on the left side one on the right and then we have normal outlanes another thing they added is there's actually a ball save now so if you see that cross that resurrect lit that means you're gonna your ball will be saved if it goes out the out lane. This is the fuel target back here. There's a big stand-up target there of how you spell fuel, and now it's a little clearer on how you're spelling it, how you're starting it. That's how you start your 2x play field. Super important shot to really capitalize on cashing out on maximum points. We have an orbit shot. Simple orbit shot, but what's awesome about it is we have opto spinners on both sides and those spin and just it's it's fantastic so the spinners were only on the premium and le of the old game they're now on this with opto spinners no friction or low friction and uh they are fantastic then you have three inline drop targets with a magnet back here that would be the cross shot we have two ramps we have the left ramp and the right ramp um you're going to use that to do lady liberty but it's a fantastic ramp metal ramp. Feels good to shoot. You got the Sparky mech here in the middle with one little stand-up target there. You're going to bash him a bunch, and that's how you start Sparky multiball. Then we have the hammer. The hammer here, there is actually a metal wall right there, and you're going to bash that a bunch of times, and then there's a magnet actually under the hammer that will grab the ball, and the ball will go under the play field, and you'll see them stored here in the coffin lock. Fantastic mech. You can actually see, too, a UV light, and there's UV lights on Sparky as well. which is an awesome little touch, which they added into this game. Then you have the Snake mech. The Snake has the ability to, it's got a scoop, but it can actually hold onto the ball, but the jaw will lock to keep it from receiving a ball. It's an awesome, very, very cool mech to see the ball spit out. Right Ramp, which I already mentioned. Right Orbit, which I already mentioned. We have three pop bumpers in the back. Nothing crazy there. Then we have four little stand-up targets. Those used to be the band member targets. Now they're the 72 targets. You're going to use those to start the little 72 mode in the game. There's also UV right here in the middle. You can see it turned on there. And that's coming from that guy and that guy. Those are new to this game. And then you got the scoop. The scoop on the far right. One of the most frustrating shots in all of pinball. But it's fair. It's fair. It's not that it's a bad or poor design. It's just it's so important in this game. And of course, you'll hit it when you don't need to. and when you do need to hit it, start crank it up or cash out or leave crank it up, it gets really difficult. And it's awesome. That's what keeps me coming back. And then a normal plunge. So nothing crazy, very easy to understand layout. It's a very friendly layout as in anybody can step up here and understand, oh, what do I want to hit? I want to bash some of the sculpts out there and have a great time. But at the same time, the game can be fast, the game can be brutal, and that's what makes it awesome. So let's dive into how to actually play the game. There are four multi balls in the game There's cross multiball sparky multiball coffee multiball snake multiball Those basically you hit any of those shots enough. You're going to start a multiball besides that There's the crank it up mode to start crank it up. You can see it right there on that insert You're gonna hit the scoop But you have to complete four things first and those happen to be the same thing as the multiball that I just talked about out. So let's actually hit start and talk our way through it. When you step up to the game, you can pick your song. There's a gazillion songs now. They added way more songs. Each song has their own custom light show. They have live music or live footage from the concert, which is awesome. But please take a look at the very top. To the left side is how many shots you have to have for the three multiballs. So cross multiball, sparky multiball, or coffin multiball. So three, ten, and five then in the middle is crank it up so you see every all four of those shots the four shots here I still need 12 to get to crank it up and then on the far right you see snake and that to keep taking or keeping track of how many of the snake shots you had so to skill shot you either just plunge up into the uplink or the Top lanes up there or you hold the left flipper button down You let it go all the way around and then you basically have one shot to hit something So that was the skill shot there, but let's talk first about snake you can see the green light is lit So if I hit it into the snakes mouth boom you're gonna see the green light goes off but I got a snake letter to get another snake letter I have to hit another snake shot so let me hit one of these snake shots now the green bulb is lit again so I can hit them back into the mouth Wow throwing is hard there we go there's my second steak letter so if I mix if I just do that over and over again snake shot snakes mouth over and over again you will smell snake um if i go in now there we go that's how you spell snake you work your way to um snake multiple now one thing you're seeing is every time i'm hitting snake i have another yeah yeah yeah um every time i'm doing it you're going to see another um snake insert lit and i'm going to get to that or the value of that but let's actually now talk about coffin multi multiball if you look up top I need four to lock so if I just bash the coffin I now need three to lock you can do two hits though if you roll over an in lane first and then hit that counts as two hits so I now let's try that again there we go so I've now wow let's try that one more time there we go there's our hits you can see the uv light is on and that means I will lock a ball if I get it right there over the magnet instead I'm throwing it at the snake's mouth There we go. That is going to lock the ball. That's my first ball lock. So you can progress towards these multi-balls the whole time. You can work at chipping away, hitting your shot, whatever you need. So for me to lock another ball at the coffin, if you look at the top, I need nine more hits. So roll over, miss the shot. Oh, it grazed it. Yeah. So just keep hitting. and yeah you can slowly work your way down and coffin lock snake is all ready to go so let's go ahead and hit that and let's start snake multiball when you're in a multiball all the multi-balls are the same as in the add a ball for the multiball are all the same the way you get an add a ball is you have to complete the 72 targets so if you look i've actually hit that 72 target i've hit that one that's because they're solid so to get the add a ball i need to hit the flashing ones. So let me hit this one and then let me hit this one and that's going to light snake. And once snake is lit, I'm going to get one in snake's mouth and he's going to hold on to that and then give me another ball. So that's how you get your at a ball. So that's for all multi balls. You want to focus on doing that. In this multiball, you want to hit snake shots and then you're going to hit the snake for jackpots. Nothing crazy. It is a multiball. You can see my ball is still in that snake's mouth. I'm holding one, but there it comes. Let me go ahead and drain the other one. So that's snake multiball. What do we got? So I've completed snake multiball, but I've also, if you look at the very, very top middle, what you're going to see is I've completed what I needed, the 12 hits I needed for snake. I've also completed the 12 hits that I need for coffin. Let's talk about cross. I've actually already hit one cross target because that one's down if you hit three of them what just lit my outling ball saves so going for cross multiball first is actually very smart the reason i just threw that ball down is because i actually touched that switch so it gave me my ball save so going for cross first but what's interesting about cross is if i drain those drop targets are coming back up so cross multiball definitely has some risk reward there. To start cross multiball, you have to hit all three in-line drain drops down, and then you have to hit them, you have to hit it one more time to get back to the cross. I need, let me hit one, two, three, there we go, and then to start cross multiball, throw back there, it's going to grab on the magnet, and there we go. Cross comes up, now you're in cross multiball. When you're in cross multiball, you want to hit cross shots and then jackpot i mean very similar to the other one but you can do a so you can do the same thing with the add a ball where you hit all the 72 targets and then once they're all hit you're going to hit the snake and it's going to grab your ball there we go it's going to hold onto the ball gives you two times score scoring for a little while um maybe this would be a good time to talk about fuel if you actually spell fuel you're going to have a chance to do 2x so if you hit back in there and the fuel come on come on wow throwing is a challenge there we go now i have two times scoring going but i already had two times scoring going because the snake lock was lit so there is a chance where you can have 4x scoring going during a multiball while i'm in this multiball i can actually work on um the the crank it up hits that i need i have all my cross ones now so let me go ahead and drain let me drain down to one but that leaves me only needing my sparky uh hits left so let me go ahead and bash sparky a bunch if you hit his feet it counts as one but if you hit the target right between his legs it counts for more you can see these lights are slowly filling up so not only can you look at the screen like i only need three more hits but once you get that that insert splashing right there that means I'm ready to go for the sparking multiball and here we go watch the animation watch the uv light that's going to show up on it so the lights go and the whole doll shakes it's awesome sparking multiball another fantastic multiball this is a very achievable multiball for anybody that plays the Yeah it right up the middle It a great moment It a great mode Same thing you can hit the 72 targets and lock a ball The shoot again's on, so let me go ahead and get this extra ball. Why not? Extra ball's lit from a few things. I think from hitting a certain number of coffee targets, you get one. so yeah that means we've played three of the four multi balls these inserts down here actually correspond to the multi balls the only one I haven't played is coffin so let me go ahead and finish coffin so two more and there we go there's my second ball lock for coffin okay so that means we just have to do 10 more 10 more so coffin what's unique about coffin when we get to it is um you can actually um get i don't know why that's not giving me two hits i thought it did maybe i'm wrong there we go four three i'm just not hitting it hard enough two okay one more all right my lock is lit now what is unique about coffin multiball is this multiball is one that you can start and then you can actually bring other multiballs into it so that's the only one that that you can mix you can merge multiballs so i'm pretty far away from multiball for everything else i mean maybe we could get sparky going but um reality is i just wanted to show you starting that. I'm going to let this drain, but what is good is I've actually hit everything I need for crank it up. So once I get out of this multiball, I'll have a chance to crank it up. Another thing I could possibly show while this is going would be, if you look at the back behind Sparky there, you can spell Metallica. You get a Metallica letter every single time that you hit a ramp. so if you get enough of those if you spell metallica there we go we need two more i can drop these two there we go one more that'll start there we go and that starts seeking destroy or lady justice lady justice seeking destroy something else that is basically you get points for more ramps so you hit ramps to start it once you're in it you hit ramps to complete it so technically what i've done now is i have completed uh the four multi balls so this is where blackened would be lit if it was in the game but it's not at the moment uh what is lit though is crank it up because i've completed all these so let me go in there and start a crank it up mode crank it up mode there are four crank it up modes to choose from if you happen to complete all four that's how you get to the final wizard mode um yeah you You can look online and you can explain how to do any of these. Fade to black is an easy one to understand though. Fade to black, it's all switch hits. You want to hit a bunch of switch hits and once you've hit enough switch hits, you've made the game fade to black and then you're going to see the shots turn blue. So shots, switch hits, fade to black. So where are the best shots to hit for switch hits? The spinners. So if you look in the far upper right, you can see mode progress, but all we have to do is rip a few spinners and we will slowly rather quickly actually fill that mode progress bar we're almost there already at 75% there we go and now that it's done all the shots turn blue and these are worth points these are worth it's lots of points. So what is cool about this game is I'm scoring, or this mode is I'm scoring points right now. If you look at the score, jackpot is 39 million points. So that means if I was to cash out, I would get 30, 40, now 42 million points. To cash out, I have to light crank it up again. To light crank it up, I have to hit the four things again. So I have to get a snake. That's going to light that up. I have to get a coffin, and then I have to get an electric chair. So now that that's lit crank it up is lit so that means right now i could cash out for 44 million points 47 million points but if i get fuel going get two times scoring going there we go two times score is going so my jackpot look at it is 52 million decide i'm gonna cash out 52 million remember so let's take a look here it's gonna give me the option do I want to keep playing do I want to keep building that jackpot or do I want to cash out so you're going to see on the left side collect 57 million if I collect though I had two times that scoring going that collect is going to be what 104 is that math 114 I forgot a one so that is what the competitive players are that's what's super cool about this game is this risk reward aspect which is very very addicting and makes you want to keep playing the game because you know you can cash out for crazy points you just got to survive you just got to keep going okay so one thing i want to talk about the last kind of nuance of the game if that wasn't enough i mean as of right now it's just oh i need to hit a certain number of crosses a certain number of electric chairs i need to hit a certain number of coffins and a certain number of snakes once i do that crank it up is lit and then each one of those if i hit enough of those i'm gonna get a multiball but there's one other aspect to the game which is very unique and really fun and that is the blue arrow. What that means is, wherever the blue arrow is, you can spot a shot or add a shot to that blue arrow. So let me explain Right now the blue arrow is on the right ramp If I hit the snake that is going to add the snake target here and then the other two shots around it The blue arrow is still on the right ramp Let me hit a cross Now my cross target is lit The blue arrow has moved though to the cross So for me to get a snake on that I have to hit the snake target again. Come on. There we go. Now there's a snake there. I have to hit a cross again even though it's on the cross target. Now I have a cross there. Let me hit an electric chair. Now you can see this column is flashing. What that means is if I hit that shot again, the blue arrow shot again, it lights a hurry up at the coffin. That means I have locked in that shot. So what is the point of locking in that shot? That means that every single time I hit that shot, I'm getting credit for a snake, a cross, and an electric chair. So if I hit that shot right now thank you resurrect if i hit that shot right now let's look at our totals at the top this is towards crank it up so nine crosses 10 electric chairs and nine snakes well if i hit that shot now i have seven um nine and eight it's going down because every single time i hit that shot it will give me credit for that well to move the blue arrow you just hit another shot so now the blue arrow is on the left orbit so you have this risk reward aspect here of Do I want to build up my lanes to make that work? Interruption. 72 seasons is going. Why is 72 seasons going? What 72 seasons is, is I've hit, when I'm not in a multiball, I've hit all four 72 targets, and now I have 72 seconds to build the jackpot, or the toy value, so by hitting switch hits, so now my toy value, if you look at it, is right at a million. If I hit one 72 target, I cash it out. but I can keep building. I can keep building that value. Let's hit another 72 target. Cash that out again. You can do that until you've hit all four 72 targets or you run out of time. So it's a cool little mini mode to just get a bunch of points. Boom. 72 is over. Another mode that is now lit because I'm not in a multiball is hardwired. How was hardwired lit? Hardwired was lit because I hit all five shots. There's five major shots. That light's hardwired. So if I start hardwired, this is a hurry up mode. This is another one of the modes that was added to the game. This hurry up mode is from, because I've hit the five shots, I want to hit all five shots again as quickly as possible. So there's a hurry up value that's cracking down. So there's one, there's two, which I think I just started the multiball. Yep. So I want to finish hardwired. hardwired still going so left ramp there we go i need to do right ramp and i need to do final one there we go that should yeah that should be the hardwire hurry up all knocked out yep there you go there's my total 21 million points right there um but yeah i think honestly there's just this constant battle of do i want to complete so like the blue arrows over there so if I hit an electric chair that'll give me that shot if I hit a cross that'll complete that then I'm going to hit the shot now I have a hurry up at the coffin so now I've locked that in if you fill out all five shots that's how you start seek and destroy it's another mini wizard mode but you'll see this one's completed this one's not well if i drain the ones that are collected will stay they'll stay solid the ones that i only partially collected will be back down to nothing see how that's nothing and those are nothing so it's like what do you want to do what do you want to do at any moment are you are you using your multi balls to collect crank it up shots are you trying to fill out the ladders of each of the five shots so that makes every time you hit that shot the rest of the game more valuable to make it easier to get to crank it up later on in the game. I don't, I mean, there's so much you can do at any time, and that's what I love about this game, is it's kind of a, just do what's present, like, what's presented to you. You know, I'm only two shots away from Hardwired being lit again. Like, there's just, it's very easy to understand, it's very easy to see. The LCD screen now communicates things very well. You're rocking out, you're enjoying the music, and you're scoring points. And yeah, that was probably a long explanation, but I think it showed it off, hopefully showed it off well and answered some questions. If I forgot anything, please leave it in the comments. But that's Metallica Remastered. And honestly, I'm loving this game. The stereo sounds incredible. The light show's incredible. There's so much to do. So many cool little nuances in the code. the four crank it up modes are now not achievements but you can cash in value you can cash in your some of the stuff that you've collected to play those as challenge modes which is really fun but yeah this game is fun it just keeps me coming back for more I'm really having a blast with this game and yeah if you want one reach out to Zach and Nicole at Flippin Out they will hook you up and try to find a Metallica new or old they're all fantastic and appreciate you for clicking on the video thanks to the 5,000 people that have decided to subscribe to this channel that blew my mind that we passed that milestone the other day so please like and subscribe the video leave a comment on anything I forgot yeah I like this game and I hope you do too and hopefully we'll catch you on a live stream sometime see ya Thank you.
