Today's video, I just wanted to highlight and showcase a cool place to play pinball if you're in the Kansas City area, Solid State Pinball down in downtown Kansas City. You can't miss it. It's right across the way from the Ferris wheel right off the highway, so very easy access. Extremely reasonable prices, unlimited play starting at $10. [music] If you want to play the entire day, it's only $20 and you can get 30 days, an entire month worth of unlimited pinball for $60, which is an incredible deal. They have an amazing selection of games from old to new, good collection, a very interesting, awesome vibe inside that building, a lot of cool decor, even got a nice little retro gaming kind of old school couch CRT TV setup that you can kind of play some old school Nintendo games, which I really love. They have, you know, some of the latest games out there, Beetlejuice, Pokémon. When I visited, they actually had Beetlejuice and Pokémon out at Planet Comicon, so people could play it there, so it wasn't actually on site, but, you know, some of the greatest games out there that you'll know and love, a really cool black light room, and I'm just going to stop talking about it. I'm going to show you the video, give you a nice little tour of it, and you guys definitely should check out Solid State Pinball Supply in Kansas City next time you're in the area.
