We've got pinball time! I totally feel like this I totally feel like I'm too dark Hello, MBT3K here Got something special We got this But just one minute I think I need Some more light on me So I'm gonna take this light here That was supposed to be lighting my hands And put it right in front of my face So, I don't know My hands are gonna be Oh, that is Oh, that's bad Let's see if I can fix this Oh my god Ooh, okay, now I don't look like a monster. Holy crap. Welcome to Mystery Pinball Theater 3000. We've got a special little treat today. This is Stern Stars. But it's not like... It's not like you remember it. 1978. Stern Table. Remixed. Redone. So a gentleman who goes by the name of Dick Dick Hamill on Pinside About four months ago I don't know if that's his real name I don't know whether That's his real name or he just thinks Mark Dick Hamill is a jerk But he goes by the name of Dick Dick Hamill He posted on Pinside An update that he made For Stern Stars Pinball Which changes I would say enhances the rule set Okay so um let me switch over so the normal rule set of stern stars right is you collect the stars and i've watched a couple of tutorials and bowen did one and it was great but he basically said you hit star star star star star there's five stars you click those each each each um each star you collect increases the value of the spinner and you get it up to a thousand by collecting all the stars and then just ranking on that spinner forever right no reason to go to the pop bumper no real reason to go to the drop targets except for bonus acts um uh yeah so it turns in what's up dalton stars update code yes so it turns into a game of light the stars and hit the spinner all day so dick Dick Hamill what he did was he created He threw in some Arduino and some code magic And a couple of cool guys John and another guy I forget his name Came down as Free Go Watch To alter Matt's stars To update it to that Sound didn't work You have a sound? Wait Did I mute the sound? You have a sound, Alton? What's your sound? I forget what your sound is Oh, you redeemed it last week Oh, shoot, am I running? I think I'm, wait, let me see if I'm Let me make sure I'm running my sound stuff I think I am But if you redeemed it last week It might have just been because I haven't gotten to it yet Uh Yeah, I just didn't get to it yet, bro I'm sorry I'm sorry It'll be on the next stream I had to cover Wind Raider and somebody else Yeah, my apologies My apologies When you see what I got going on If you're around for the Friday stream When you see what I got going on the Friday stream You're going to think I'm crazy Okay, so anyway The new code here is It's a little different First of all Have you ever seen a Stern Stars from 1978 With a ball save And look at this light show Look at the light show that's happening before we even play, right? So this starts off with a ball save. And if you look at the back glass, you've got your scores, right? You've got your 1, 2, 3, 4 scores. And you've got, like, this here will show you the ball save plus the pop bumpers. There's three goals for wizard. Yeah. There's three goals for wizard mode on this, okay? Ooh. One of them is Pop Bumpers I think if you can hit 50 50 or so Pop Bumpers Pop Bumper Then you get one of the Wizard Modes The other Wizard Modes are Rotate through all the drop targets, right? Drops and drops will get you double bonus Then all the drops will give you triple All the drops again will get you wow all the drops again will get you special and then all the drops again will light this for a hurry up. That's the second wizard mode. The third wizard mode is lighting all the stars and locking them in. There's like three levels of stars to lock in. Let's stop talking and let's start playing. Classic challenge. Look, now ball save is on. And when I plunge, you'll see the light up top trigger ball save. So let's just look at ball saves. There's so much going on in this table now. As soon as I hit a switch, the ball save will start. Oh, that's good. 20, 19, 18. So I've got a ball. Look, I needed it. Look. Boom, I can plunge again. Now I've got no ball save. Now the ball save is gone. Just like a regular game. And now I'm dead. Ball one. I want to show you some of the cool stuff here. Boom, I've got a doom, doom, doom. So ball save. Every ball has a ball save. cray cray the other one is check out this strobing light so the the roaming star light that's a skill shot so the way stern stars used to play is like you would i think one of them at random would be lit and if you hit that you would uh you would lock in that star or something like that now it's hit the skill shot if you can hit the skill shot then you lock in all the lights all the stars but on level one it's like a dim light so he's got a dim mode and a bright mode this is a really tough skill shot so you have to sneak it past switches if you want to get a good shot on it like i gotta sneak it past switches uh no it's yeah so that's it so that that skill shot's gone now what i want to do is i want to collect stars if i can Oh my goodness So I want to collect the stars The normal way Since I didn't get the skill shot Also if you notice the pop bumper It says 56 I have to hit it 56 times to finish it There's a drop Oh no Okay I can do it Nice peg save Yes Now check it out Here's what I want to try Because if you're on a Stern Stars Or any game with a middle post If it's set up correctly You should be able to bounce off the middle post And do a pass A flipper pass I'll show you what I mean I haven't tried it yet This will be a throwaway game Okay, I got one star And I got Ball save going on right now So it's not showing me my I got another star And I'm dead Oh man Oh, this is going to be rough Oh, I got a ball save. I keep forgetting I got a ball save. Cray cray. Alright, there's a star. Oh, this is going to be rough today. Okay. And check out the match. Every sound is just a chime. A real chime. That's why I love this. Alright, let's go, let's go, let's go So Thank you to Dick Dick Hamill for Making this Ridiculous Update 2020 Let me see if I can get that I got it I got the skill shot Oh, look at that Oh, did I get it? I don't know if I got it No, if I got it, it would have been locked in No, I didn't get it Oh, shh Do I get ball save? No Alright Yeah, this is ball two, dang it So there's the skill shot again That is a tough Okay, I can't get past this Ball save Alright, full plunge It doesn't auto plunge, obviously See if I can get it Do, do Oh man, gosh. Good thing this is free. I'm going to be here for a while. This is rough. Oh, that was a ball save. Oh my god. Alright, let's play some. Let's play some pinball. Now I should be able to bounce pass, right? Boop. Yep. Oh, that is so cheap. That feels so cheap, but no one would try that. I mean, only pros would try that. That feels so cheap. Ball three. I've got no progress really on anything right now. And it looks like the skill shot keeps going. Keeps going. Oh, it's going really fast now. Why is it going really fast? Alright, gotta collect the stars. Gotta collect the stars. Watch this. Boop! That feels so cheapy-cheap. But it works. Boop. Now that star is not really worth a lot right now, but I'm taking the hits. So I need to collect more stars. Yes. Hi there. Alright, so here's what we gotta do though. Uh, you can put it up there. Ooh, baby. Alright, I'll take that spinner. What's that fuzzy cord? Oh! Is it frozen? Oh, no. It is. Now that's going to give me... Thank you. That's going to give me trouble all day now. I know it. Once it freezes once, it's going to give me trouble for the rest of the day. Let's see if I can unfreeze it. Oh, where'd it go? Where'd it go? I think I'm off the air. Oh no. Oh boy. Oh wait. Come back, come back. Here I am. Alright, I'm back. Okay, I gotta unfreeze that camera. How's it going Fuzzy Cord? Yep, yep That's gonna be So you guys gotta let me know when that camera freezes Because I know it's gonna freeze up a lot It's either working perfectly in the beginning Or it freezes all the time Wait, I think it just froze again Yeah, it literally just froze again Alright, so we're gonna try something We're gonna try something else We're gonna kill it and we're gonna try a different port on the computer Where your money though All right, I'm back. This is super fun, though, guys. And it's quite a challenge. There we go. Let's activate that. All right. It's fun and it's challenging, but you got to know how to play. There we go. You got to know how to play an early solid state pinball machine. get down the flippers and everything. It's way different. It's a wholly different animal than jacked up flippers on stirring tables nowadays. Alright. I've got to keep periodically checking that thing. Alright, here we go. See if I can get that skill shot. Look at that. Isn't that crazy? I would have gotten it. Nope. It's still lit though. Oh, until you hit a star. I think it goes for a certain amount of time until you hit a star. Well, that's my ball save. It's still there. Okay. Boop. Ah, too late. I'm going to do that at some point during the stream. So check it out. Nope, not quite from that flipper. This is the flipper I need that on though because I need to get that spinner. It does it on this flipper. It doesn't do it on this flipper. So... Let's see if it'll do it. Boom! Nope. It's too low. So this flipper is too low. But I saw Bo and Karen's do it on a machine back in like 2016. And it just flawlessly went over to the other flipper. That's one star. It's funny. The stars remind me. Ball save. The stars remind me of the Beatles I'm sure they stole that option from the Beatles Where if you If you Hit George, Paul John and Ringo It advances the spinner on the right It's the same thing So Beatles is the same thing as this Hitting all the stars The Beatles are the stars In that game So next time you play Beatles, check it out It's hard to drop catch on a solid state like this. Let's go for that spinner. Nope. Nope. Nope. Ah, I lifted the flipper up so it would go underneath it. What's up, VP Fiends? Just making sure everything's still working. I can see my reflection over there. We are playing Stern Stars, but with updated code via an Arduino and a really talented programmer who goes by the name of Dick Dick Hamill on Pinside. He has updated this. So this is a Steve Kirby machine. This is Steve Kirby's first machine for Stern. 1978 Steve Kirby also did Meteor So if you are a Old school pinball fan You will know Meteor also Is a liked game We have a Meteor here also at Free Go Watch It's a very liked game And uh So Steve Kirby is Is the man Oh jeez Ball save Look at that Still on ball one. Still on ball one. Ball save. It drives me nuts. The first time we really had a ball save was, I think, right after Twilight Zone. Because Twilight Zone didn't have a ball save. What was the table after Twilight Zone that did have a ball save? Here we go. Bounce. No, you can't do it from a rolling bounce. I'm just trying it out. I'm just trying it out so that when we actually play tournaments, I have an edge. Because I know how to flip or pass. There's that skill shot that I want. I didn't get it. Oh my god, ball save? Yes. Ball save is done. Okay, now the skill shot is over. One thing you want to do is get that horizontal movement out of you. You don't want horizontal, you want vertical. Nope. The four goals in this table are pop bumpers. So notice the score up at the top. Can't trust that post that much. Notice this pop here, right? This pop here and this here will show you how many pop bumpers I need to get to get to the wizard mode of, or to complete the pop bumper. Right now it's showing me ball save. Oh, that's a ball save, though. That's a ball save. Serve it up. Ball three. Spinner. Oh, man, I missed that spinner, and I'm done. Does he get a match? Does he get a match? No match Telling you guys I did much better on this yesterday On the test run And this screen is blocking me But that's okay I don't know No I do mine I'm going to move this a little bit This way Out of the shot Hey, that guy's stealing a bike Hey, somebody stop that guy Alright Give me that skill shot Gosh darn it It didn't hit anything This is why you need a ball save on this game Skill shot's still going Nope Hit a star so the skill shot is over. I can't imagine hitting 60 pop bumpers, really. So hard. So I have double bonus. Now if I can clear all the drop targets again, I have triple bonus. But I want to get my stars. I want to get my stars. There's a star. Oh, that was dumb. Hey, thank you for the sub! What's up, Vaughn? Thank you so much for that sub. How are you today? Alright, I almost got all the stars. Let me send that out. Oh! Oh no! Thank you for the follow. Sure, 2462. You're an absolute legend. Welcome to the pinball theater. Us new school players are spoiled compared to the guys who grew up with those older tables like that. Requires so much skill to play those effectively. Yeah, so VP. This is a lesson here. This is a lesson. This is ball two. This is a lesson on... Oh boy, that was a lot of things. Right? You can practice all day on a fast stern table. But it only translates a little bit. The slope of this table is almost like playing an actual table. The slope is like five. It is not a very slopey machine. So the ball tends to be very floaty. and you have to know what your specific goals are. I want to hit stars. I'm going to hit this star right here. Nope, that's too late. Oh, boy, oh, boy. That a double bonus So this shows me what I have This shows me what I going to get next Roving skill shot on a 1978 machine. Hey, what's up, Pat? All well. How crazy is that? How crazy is that? Ball three. I haven't broken 100 yet. Let's get that roving skill. I didn't do it. I was too early. I can still get it. It's roaming around. I'm not sure what's going on. Jared Star, what do you mean new code? Do you own code? Your own code? No, this is Stern Stars from 1978. someone named Dick Dick Hamill on Pinside wrote new code so it's like a man in the middle you have an Arduino that sits in between the table and the code logic on the motherboard so the motherboard of this machine is basically brain dead and the Arduino is doing the scoring and doing the new rules so we have kind of updated things right now like a ball safe and wizard goals wizard goals on this thing so it is truly an updated version of stern stars for 2020 it takes a bit of um ingenuity to install it but it's not very difficult if oh if you buy the right uh pieces and he gives you all the instructions so if you own this game on pin side he's got a whole pdf that basically tells you how to update your machine non-destructively non-destructively update your machine let's update vp match uh it's cool tech but a shame it's not a new ROM if it was we could put it into vpx I'll tell you what. I'll tell you what. It's not hard. This, like a typical, like a decent level VPX guy like the Fishbowl. The Fishbowl is an amazing level VPX guy. He could code this with pretty much, I mean, Phil could probably code this in an afternoon. Three wizard goals. Three wizard goals. Okay? First wizard goal, complete all the stars. So I have to hit these stars. Notice you have a skill shot going on right now. If I hit the skill shot, then it'll light the first level. So it'll complete the first level of stars. You basically hit the stars, then hit the strobing light to lock it, hit the stars again, hit the strobing light to lock it, hit the stars again, hit the strobing light to lock it. Three times. Dirt star, thank you for the follow. Welcome to the pinball theater. The other goal is, I think, 60 pop bumper hits. There's one pop on this machine So you gotta hit it 60 times to get that next goal Third goal Is to hit the drops A lot Okay So the VPX community did do Guardians of the Galaxy without a ROM That is correct Matt Strife, what's up, welcome to the Pinball Theater 3 and 3 Let me see if I can Now there's a ball save Now look at the back glass Notice it's counting down 18 17 16 That's my ball save right now That is my ball save right now It's counting down Like the microseconds Or whatever Or whatever And now I'm almost done with ball save And also the light's flashing And ball save is done Watch this If I can get that in the groove right Look at that This happens on a lot of Stern Stars machines. Woo! Alright. Oh, I almost lost it. Being silly. It's magic! Got it. I need one more. Oh boy. It's kind of difficult to get it. There we go. Get it up there. Get it up there and get that last star. I got one more star to get and that's this guy right here. Notice how it does a flicker. It's so awesome. It does a flicker to say you hit it and then it stops to a solid. Oh man, this is... My inserts do that. If you have... If you can get a Stern Stars for cheap, cheap, cheap in a good condition and then put this code in it, you're alright. Because you can switch back and forth between the old code Ball save. You can switch back and forth between the old code and this new code. Jeez. Jeez. Ah. Ball three. The same guy who did this did... I'm getting a reflection. I know, I'm getting a reflection on the left lanes. I don't like this light anymore. I think I'm going to get rid of this light. I mean, not forever, but just for now. Because you can't even see my hands. He also did Blackjack. I think it's a ballet game called Blackjack that he updated also. Dick Dick Hamill, Pinside, go look it up. I'll leave a link to his forum post when I post this puppy on YouTube later. There we go. There we go. All right, ball save's still good, so I should flip around. There we go. Okay, I just threw that away. Bounce. Weird bounce. Weird bounce. You get those weird bounces on solid states. It's like it'll bounce back to the same flipper. You don't get that on a... You just bounce back to the same flipper, bro. How many different songs can you make with like What are there? Literally three chimes? Maybe four? What's up Piccolo? I'm done Piccolo I gotta keep closing the door Because the door keeps opening Mmm chimes Tell me about it Times are sweet. Oh, no. Damn it. I need to test where this tilt is, too. I don't know how... I don't know how tilty this thing is. I think it's... I think it's kind of generous. So, I think we might be able to get away with... Oh, this is the way it works, right? I play... Terrible... Oh, crap. This is going... Okay, there we go. Flipper tricks. You can only use so many flipper tricks with these So this spinner should be worth about 400 now I think But the more stars you collect The more stars you collect The higher value that spinner gets I need to forget about wizard modes right now And just try and hit the stars There's No Thank you for the host. The UK Pinball Club just hosted us with three beautiful people. Welcome to the Pinball Theater. Stern Stars, 1978. How old were you, Spuds, Manu, when you... My nickname is also Spuds. How old were you when... In 1978. Tell us. I will not. That is not something that will happen right now. Oh. Oh. Let's break a hundred at least. Oh boy. That's always dangerous. That's good. That's good. Where's that last missing star? Up top. It's really hard to hit that one. Get it. Get it. What the... Save that. Holy smokes. I hope I got that one. Oh, I so hope I got that replay. Oh, you gotta trust the middle post! Can we see that? I know I got that. Dip, dip, boop, dip, dip! Oh, my hat blocked it, too. Alright, I gotta turn my hat around. What is that, 98? Come on, what's the high on this thing? If I hit both flippers, do I get the high? No. 339. Which is, if I was playing a regular Stern, a regular Stars code, once you hit all the Stars, you just play... Whatever. And then, yes. So, welcome back, the Murder Voice and the Chipmunk Voice. They're back. I figured out how to make those work and not crash my OBS anymore. So you're welcome. And the chimes can be very weird sounding. Everything's weird. Alright, there we go. Alright. Oh boy. Oh no! I do have to fix something because I'm hearing myself in my headphones. Oh, shoot. Oh. I have to do something real quick. I just noticed something I have to fix. Um What's up Captain Threatening chimes That was my ball tape right there Murder that top star Murder those stars Murder those stars Oh, it just smacked the glass I got all the stars except for the bottom two Boom, nope All the stars except for the bottom two What the, Dave, thanks Dave Man you went way back to stars Yes Yes But this is stars with new code This is stars 2020 This is not stars 1978 I wonder if If Stern knew If Stern knew that People would be doing this to their machines They had to know Well actually they probably didn't know Because this is This might as well be magic The ability to like Man in the middle this kind of... to intercept the ROM and do new stuff. Give me that star over there, man. Alright, how about the stars up here? Oh, I should have left that bounce. Oh, this is like learning pinball all over again. God. This is... This is like learning pinball all over again, you guys. If Stern knew someone would put new code in it 42 years later, they would have made them self-destruct after 10 years. It's certainly magic compared to 1978 knowledge. That's what I'm talking about. Like, you know what they say, Any technology that is so far ahead of normal understanding is basically considered magic to lay people. Like VR is magic. I mean, not exactly, but VR is pretty cool. Putting up 100,000 on this will happen. There are rollovers also. There are rollovers on the game. That just, it just, and I got a flipper on it. And before the VCR was magic. The VCR was like, how are we recording? How? Watch anything you want, anytime. Anytime. And, and, and. What's up, Bert? I'm still trying to figure out how a thermos works It keeps the hot stuff hot And the cold stuff cold But how does it know which one to do? How does it know? You know how it knows? Because you tell it in the beginning You say hey A thermos This is the water Or whatever And this is Oh Frack Here, I'll show you guys a trick I was doing before. Thermos, Earl Grey, hot. Thermos, Earl Grey, hot, please. Thermos, may I have a nice hot cup of tea, please? Give me stars. That's all I'm going for, stars here. All right, that spinner should be worth a good amount. I just realized Picard doesn't say please to the replicators. What's up, Johnny Demonic? Sounds on this game are so chill. Brian Eno of pinball. What's up, JD? In his house. I love the chimes on this. Yeah I have to use my ball save there It's so hard to do stuff like that Like drop catch on this Spinner's not worth it yet Spinner's not worth it Well If you're going to walk the plank It'll be worth it Bounce Drain Stuff your mom hates, what's up? Long see no time Actually I saw you Or you saw me a couple streams ago So that's not true Can we stop sucking on stars? Whoa Let's do this. I want you guys to notice the pop bumper advance. Okay? Let's see if we can do the pop bumper. Now, first it's going to show the... First it's going to show the... Ball save time. It's all about the ball save time first. Oh, watch... No, I can't do it for this one. It's still showing ball save time. I'm getting a lot of pops. Here we go. Pop bumper hits. Pop bumper hits. 51. I have 51 left to go. 51 hits to go. Alright. Here we go. Here we go. Am I still talking like a chipmunk right now? Or is this just great? This is the first time I'm testing out my chipmunks are back. The first time I'm trying to see if it actually works. I haven't seen the streamers do much with channel points. This is funny. Thank you very much. Yeah, I like to try and maybe... Oh, let's be careful. That's okay. I like to try and do a little more with the channel points, but I could never decide what to do. So I just did everything How's that sound Whoa Whoa whoa whoa How many pops do I have left Thank you for that picture Oh that out lane I can't even see it anymore Let's fix this More out lane less shooter lane right let's move this over this this way yeah clean it for me while I'm you clean and I will adjust as a team we will make this thing look awesome thank you look at that how weird is that uh mpt3k is the king of channel points that play field is looking a little dirty let me help you Son of gun Ow, Pez Johnson Come back to me Come back to me Come back to me It doesn't serve my ego well at all Come on Let's get some magic Happening Yeah, go for it Thanks, we need an extension. Oh, okay. Sorry. No, it's all good. Got it? There you go. That's Pat. He's the manager here. You're not the only one filming today. Oh, really? Yes. Somebody's filming? Oh, there's some stuff happening outside. Just one pop bumper up there in the play field. Interesting. Interesting design, yeah. Just one. I got competition. Wait. I'm going to... Wait. Wait, wait right there guys No starts in two minutes I'm so nosy Holy smokes My buddy Victoria is in the other room And she's shooting the The EMs So this room I'm in right now Did I get a raid? Oh but I didn't I didn't get a raid I didn't get a raid just now did I? No Otherwise I would thank people My buddy Victoria is in the other room Shooting a real life raid. Shooting that EM machine. So the electric mechanical, we have a little room on the side called the Lucky Juju Room. And that has about five or six EM machines. EM machine. Electro mechanical machine. Electro mechanical machine. So that's right. And so she's filming some stuff. So that's pretty cool. And of course like a typical video nerd I was like ooh nice ooh is that a Sony camera She like no it a Panasonic I like ooh She's like super smart and she does cool video stuff. Ah, ball save, come on. No, there's no grace period. He didn't code a grace period for the ball saver. Anyway, yeah, she's super smart. She's a very, very talented, talented creator. Way higher level than stuff like channel points and stuff. I got crazy respect for her. And she also is a pretty badass Guardians of the Galaxy pinball player. So there It's not like that Piccolo I'm good, I'm good, I can do this I can do this I can put up a hundy Bounce I just need to get in the groove Of Of an electro A solid state Solid state flippers shhh ball save solid state flippers man solid state ugh ugh yo I hit that or it hit that for me can I play too at some point I can got it I can oh man But she can do this? You think she can put up 100? I mean do you think she can put up 100? Why did my voice go so high when I just said that? Hi boys and girls this is Mickey Mouse Played this one a handful It does have EM vibes Yeah Yeah Um No free stars If you hit this If you hit that strobing Skill shot You get some free stars I might try and get some free stars Can I get free stars See if I can get free stars Got it Hey I got it I drained, but I got it. Look at that. Look at that. It's right back to nothing. Oh, this game is so hard. 49. I got it, though. This is... I gotta stop saying this is fun. But... This is a nice change. What the... No! Some of those early solid states do Like lecture mechanical I like that one Even though it's not chimes Johnny, can you do the center post pass? The bow and trick on start I can Johnny, but only from one So only from this flipper to that flipper From this flipper to that From right to left doesn't work And I'll show you So I can't do exactly the bow and trick I can't do exactly the bowing trick. Damn. That's a ball save. But I'll show you the reverse bowing trick. Now, that's not the right way because you want to hit the right spinner. That's the... So this bowing trick won't work. I'll just show you. So I'd have to nudge forward for that to work. And I guess I could do it, actually. George Starr, the biggest retro arcade in my area just permanently closed because of... Permanently closed. Negative. It didn't go in. Just a packet on the surface. No one ever types negative. That's hilarious. Thank you, Fergers, for doing that. I haven't heard that in a while. Electromechanical has that sound card that sounds like a guy or con. Permanently closed. Where is your area, Jerd? Tell me where your area is. On my similarly powered EM, I tap pass for flipper to flipper. Yes. Probably because you don't have a center post. Thank you for the follow, Fergers, by the way. Thank you for the follows. Boise, Idaho They're moving the collection to Salt Lake City So I just got word today That Places are opening Or attempting to open in a limited 25% capacity Here in San Francisco Which is cool but a little concerning at the same time I will say that But Oh, I got the skill shot But I got the skill shot And that's the most important thing So Ball save So if I can Did I get the skill shot? I got three stars I don't even know if I got the skill shot It's kind of hard to tell on this Weird Oh, I was going to show you the other center post pass if you would call it a center post pass. Oh, stop flipping, Manu. Just stop flipping. I have a better chance if I just don't flip. Just don't flip. See that chance? Now I can go from here to here. Boop. Just fine. But I can't do the other way. Unless I give it some help. Or I think unless it's already moving. Don't panic or flip. Isn't that a sweet pass? That looks baller if you're a tournament player and you rock one of those passes. And then you hit your shot that you need. It's like wickedly cool. But I saw that leaving. But realistically I needed to go for that From this flipper to this flipper Because that prepares you for that spinner The time machine needs some of that What's up the time machine Welcome to the pinball theater Back up there See those Those drop catches I'm trying to do just don't work here. Ball save. How are you enjoying the new code? It's incredible. Andy, it is incredible. It is incredible, actually. I was like Yeah Matt whatever I don't mind Sure new stars code sure cool I played it once and then I looked it up On Pinside Dick Dick Hamill the guy who created it He did a little video about the wizard modes In here Yeah so you played it It's incredible Like if I had a Stern Stars For like $500 I don't even care if it Well I do care if it works But it has to mostly work and then I throw this code in it, and then it would be like... Because you feel like a boss. If you can hit this skill shot... Oh, that's weird. If you can hit this skill shot... Which I just did. Then you've got to hit it again to lock it in, I think. Okay, I think that was it. Then you hit your spinner. Oh, no. Nope. Oh. Oh boy. Is that a reflection or is there a french fry laying in the left out lane? That is a reflection. French fry there, french fry gone. French fry there, french fry gone. French fry there, french fry gone. I have my shielding on the wrong side of this light. Here we go. French fry gone? French fry gone Been having a bunch of fun on it Yep the stars with the new board Might be one of the best value machines around Now I'm hungry Yeah this with new code Is And Andy Did you know that the same guy who did this Did He did a version of Blackjack too Bally's Blackjack I've never played Blackjack The time machine, thank you for the bits Very, very nice Much appreciated the time machine star star ah you just mean to me two stars drop down we got double bonus we got double bonus we got 85 Matt was telling me about that sounds great blackjack is a great machine I've never played blackjack I would love to play blackjack now I can play a VPS version of blackjack I think in fact I'm I'm gonna go look for a VPX version of Jack. I should at least flip. But that was a ball save, so I'm good. I'm good. 44 more. 44 more. We're doing it. We're getting over 100. We're doing it. Oh, look at that. We got double bonus. We need a star up top. We need a strike to win, Fred. Oh, that was just... That was poor play. 133. 133. Come on, Fred. We need a strike to win. 133. I'm getting there. I'm getting the hang of it. See, what I love about this is the emphasis is taken off of just the stars and that spinner. Real Sergeant Muffin. Thank you for the follow. Welcome to the pinball theater. There's Matt. There's the guy who can blame for this. Blame? Did I hear the word blame? Yes. This is beautiful. This is so much fun You're liking the Stars 2020? This is so much fun Should we call it Stars 2021 because 2020 is such a wash? Did you hear that? F-2020 I want that skill shot I hit it twice, right? Don diddy don don don? I haven't heard that one before. Don diddy on don don. Oh, save! What was that? What did somebody just do? Don diddy on don don. That was a cool chime. Get that star up there. Steve Kirby, the man, the myth, the legend. The designer of stars. Shoot. Fuzzicles. You know the same guy who did this to Meteor, right? Steve Kirk. Steve Kirk. I was going to say Steve Kirby. Steve Kirk. Kirk. He's got the Kirk pose. That's Kirk Post. Is that what it's called? The Kirk Post thing? Kirk Post, yeah. That's cool. I think he even tried to trademark it. I swear there's a thing where he tried to trademark that post. Really? Yeah. So this was the first time a center post was used? I don't know if it's the first or not, but I think, I swear I know something about talking about a Steve Kirk-like TM post. Yeah, yeah. Well, Bowen mentioned the Kirk Post, or Steve Kirk Post. Pretty slick. So if you do it right, you're supposed to be able to hold a ball. Well, you can do it from this flipper to there, but this flipper to there, this is the flipper you need to do it on, though. Because you need to serve that spinner. So I tried it on this flipper, and it kind of just dribbles. Because I think the end of stroke is not high enough. Unfortunately, this game is not mine, so I'll tell the operator. Oh, okay. All right. He's got to fix that. Thank you for the bitties, Johnny. Awesome. Man, how long have you been into pinball? I've been into pinball since I was... My first pinball machine I ever played was Nippet. Nippet. Look that up. I played it when it was basically... Well, I don't know if it was... Can somebody look up Nippet and see what... Because I'm not going to say I'm that old. But my first pinball machine was Nippet. Nippet. Doesn't that have some kind of funky mech? Yeah, it does. It has an alligator mech. Can we see the mod kit? You can see the mod kit, Vaughn, on Pinside. Hang on a second. If you jump on Pinside, look up Stern 2020, Stern Stars 2020 on Pinside, and you'll see the whole thing you have to do. Somebody say Neteor! SevenEyes, what's up? He's been listening to Civil War Chronicles. Happy Days. Yes, happy days. Nip It was on happy days. Nip It, real good. Boom, boom. Wow, a 1932 pinball machine. No, stop. Pickle up. Greg, bro. Oh, shoot. Really? Really? Wild Dog put the link up to, I guess, Nip It, right? Thank you, 1973. Now here's the trick 1973 but I didn't play it when it was new People I wasn't playing it I wasn't like 16 years old playing nip it Alright All I said was my first pinball machine I played was a nip it And it was in a pizza joint Okay So you could roughly guess Things But not that bad of things Um I'm going to put up another one Zipper flippers, yeah. Zipper flippers are not the best flipper type to be introduced to pinball to either. I've got to tell you that much. It's a 1x12 inch board. That was a good first ball, I think. Go back. Go back. Ball's eight. How many pop bumpers do I have left? I don't know. Ooh, baby, baby, baby, baby, baby. Oh, no, no. No. No, no, no, no. Give me a star. Oh, the star, star shot. Oh, I definitely want to replay that. One star to the next. Oh, crap. There is a generous tilt on this. Dangdiri-yang-dang-dang. There it is again. That's my favorite chime in this game. Da! Is this still working? Yes. Dangdiri-yang-dang-dang. There's that skill shot again. And I hit it. Holy crap. That is not a skill shot. They should call it a luck shot. How much is that spinner worth right now? Not a lot. Get out there. Thank you. Two little trickle spins. 44 pop bumpers left. Ooh, that would have been a good spin if I had hit it. That would have been so good. And like my mama always said If shit had feet it would walk Wouldn't it Average and a hundredth per game Is not bad I have a little more time left too Pinball newbie I like how Stern released Stars Meteor and Galaxy In the late 70's Almost like they were on an outer space ship. All the colors. The colors are all very close too. I didn't even know that. That's cool. Stars, Meteor, and Galaxy. That same blue and orange on the play field in this game are all over Meteor. Yeah. And then, you know why? Because they ran out of ideas for card games. You ever notice how many card games, card-based games there are in pinball, early pinball? You know, Blackjack, Royal Flush Uh, uh, blah, blah, blah I can name two That's how many, that's how many there are God leave his wife No Two stars. Whack-a-whack-a-woo! No! Okay, okay, okay, okay. Oh, shoot. Oh, crap. We need some action on this machine right now. Don't let it push you around. This is like Beatles. You can't let Beatles... Beatles pinball by Stern. You can't let it push you around. You gotta shove back a little bit. The freaking coin door just opened Oh, 15, that's not good Columbia was just about to make its first flight Oh, wow There were 10 I'm going to say that's a trillion How many zeros is that? 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 I don't know what that is Space and pinball just meshed so well. I've got no use for those card games, but I do like to chuckle in the art of some of the card-themed EMs. It feels like Space Pool. Yeah, there was Pool also. Space Pool and card games were the most produced themes. Furriers, fight back. I'm trying. Wild Dog Arcade, what's happening? Put some plastic coasters on the legs and I'll help you fight back. Yeah, this machine is sitting on concrete right now because we're in the back room. You can see the main room is out there. I'm in the back room because they have just... Look, there's the workbench. They had just done this this week or last week. 100 million. Okay, thank you. I remember all two. Laser cue. That's right. Laser cue is cool. We have a laser cue out there. Wait, laser cue? Laser cue. Why does that... Oh, laser cue. I love Laser Q. Isn Laser Q the one with like the red green and This is an expensive machine man Isn Laser Q the one with the red green and This is an expensive machine man Isn LaserCue the one with red green and yellow and you have to hit the shots and then you get the multiball and then you get it up the ramp Maybe that's wrong. Maybe that's wrong. Well done, RK. Hi, I hope you're doing well. It's been a while. What's happening? Welcome to the theater once again. No workbench is complete without the flip side. well done that was blackout okay dig that out bro I love how I love how I said I said oh all the card games that exist and I named two card games just two I was like oh those card games. It's like that song, what's that song? Rainbow Connection? Where they're like, why are there so many songs about rainbows? There's like one other song about rainbows. Um. Think Gottlieb Pinball Pool kind of made, kind of mixed future plus pool. Hey, yeah. Where is this game? This game is in the back. This game is in the back of the thing. In the back of Free Go Watch. This game is is way in the back of the free-go-lunch. Oh my god. I feel like destroying things. Ball three. Here we go. Three, two, one. Hit the skill shot. Hit the skill shot. Oh. Oh. Hit the spinner. Hit the ball fade. Future Spy is the ultimate future game. It can future with ultra low vspandex you guys go on go on pinball database look up future spa look at the back look at the back glass that's all I'm going to say and tell me what's that guy doing with his hands under the water there's a dude with like his hands under the water I don't know what he's doing with his hands I mean I guess I do know what he's doing but I don't want to say what he's doing with his hands Close Scorpions Fly to the rainbow Okay the time machine He's lifting a laser weight Bruh I literally just streamed Future Spa today Did you really I love Future Spa don't run me serious 70s porn backlash i like future spa existed in a world where like men were men and like um like totally what's the word when you exploit women? Maybe that's the word. What's the word? What are the words that you use when you want to talk about exploiting women? Maybe it's just exploiting women. Maybe those are the words. I don't know. Dickheads. Thank you. Yeah. That's what I was looking for. I got a hundred of them I got a hundred and I'm laughing I think it's called Pinside Johnny What's the word you use when What's the word when you exploit women? Dead Lots of body hair Yes, lots of body hair Grammy on that too Fat glass Close enough Spicy alright let's do a couple more let's see if I can break 200 200 with stars by Stern updated by Dick Dick Hamill from Pinside send some thanks and send some love over to Dick Dick Hamill for doing this because this is not a small endeavor this is definitely labor of love and everybody who owns Stern Stars should do this or get somebody to do it for them you can switch back and forth between both versions definitely highly recommend it to play it Oh my god, I never noticed the guy in the water on Future Swallow. Yeah, now you can't unsee it. You're welcome, Greg. You're welcome, Piccolo. Ah, come on. You're not going to get 200 by crapping all over your thing. Zach Kenny Gardner, thank you for the follow. Two stars. What was that? Damn it. I forgot to mark this... I forgot to mark this stream as not kid-friendly. But I'd like to be kid-friendly. But sometimes when I play pinball, I'm not very kid-friendly. Can I say kid-friendly one more time? What do you get when you keep wailing on the same star over and over again? you just gotta have like spectacular saves sometimes um pinball for life zach kenny garner watch this boing I was showing my girlfriend Stern Sea Witch online and she was like Oh another sexy lady pinball machine Real cool I was like Sea Witch is a feminist game She is bad And she will kick your ass She is free to dress and express her sexuality I feel like reading it's like this See which is a feminist game. She is bad and she will kick your ass. She is free to dress and express her sexuality in any way she sees fit and if men can't handle their hormones, well, when they see her, well, that's not her problem. This means something in like, you know, that urban sector. When a woman looks at you and goes... I don't know what it means, but my cousins would do that to me all the time. What's up, Ken Swift? Do you have to wind up that thing before you can play it? I think mbt3k is auditioning for the mask singer to be honest fathom is a bunch of water ladies drowning a white dude so there's that oh my god mermaids captured yes we have a we have a we have a fathom here also we have a fathom here Ken Swift, I will tell you this. This is an updated version. This is running new code. This is running code from 2020. So unless you get the fishbowl or somebody else to code this, the Stern Stars that you will play on VPX is very different from this. Very different from this. Oh, and I got a flipper on it too Lifting my leg up That helps When you lift your leg up Merman Merman That lean is murdering you Is it leaning? I don't think this I don't think this game is Actually Level in here I kind of don't care Is it leaning? I think it's leaning What are some of the changes in this 2020 code? I'll do that real quick Stern drop targets from this era are so much better than the valleys Oh, cool Real quick, Pinball Newbie The differences are If we start the game And I mentioned this a couple more times But I don't mind saying it again There's a skill shot now As you can see would explain why the Bally Post Pass only works on one side. Yeah, actually, Fergers, you're a genius. Yeah, it's supposed to work on this side, but it doesn't. So there's a ball save, also. See how this light is flashing? Pinball Newbie. There's a skill shot. And there are wizard modes. Normally, your goal is to light all the stars. Star, star, star, star, star. Get this up to a thousand, and that's it. Now, if I can hit this skill shot, it'll light the stars for me in wave one. They'll be dimly lit. If I can do it again, they'll be brightly lit, which is even more points. And if I can do it again, I get the wizard mode. Pop bumpers have a number of hits. 60 to finish them. And then this drop target area has a goal. So there are goals in this now. Notice the ball save. That's why it looks like I'm having 65. So I'm going to get that back. without a penalty. So now my ball save is over and so is my skill shot. So now I kind of have to get the stars the hard way. I don't know. I feel like trusting that Kirk... the Kirk post too much. The Steve Kirk post. Once again, the ball save. And the skill shot. No. I was so far away from that skill shot. It's still happening? I think the skill shot just keeps going. It's still happening! Maybe it goes around a number of times. Maybe it goes around like three times. I'm not sure now. Yeah, you know what? There is something very satisfying about those drop targets. There is something really super satisfying about those drop targets. God, this feels so good, guys. The chimes. Oh, my God. You have to wind that thing up to play it. Ken Swift. Oh, my God. Almost nobody makes me laugh as much as you do, bro. 49 hits. 49 hits. 49 hits. I got double bonus lit. All right, double bonus lit. I hit that spinner. That was a terrible swing. Oh man, when it comes at that angle That's the exact angle that Bowen talked about I'm just kidding man I heard the machine was Moses' favorite to play Why do I read your chat? Von, what a cool way to modernize an older game I want a 2020 update From Meteor It probably is coming If Dick Dick Hamill from Pinside can get his hands on it He probably can do it Or you, Pinball Newbie We have electricity back When we have electricity back, then you know Now it came from a water wheel Oh, I'm not getting that But maybe I'll get it later when I read this back How can you tell how many hits you have on the pops? This right here Is it still working? Yeah. This right here will show you... That display has to show you a lot. So it'll show you... Ball save. Thank you for the bitties, Ken Swift. You must be a millionaire. It'll show you ball save, but after ball save is done, it'll show you pop hits whenever you hit the pop. If you look at it, when I hit the pop bump, you'll see it count down. Let's do it. Ball three. 65. I gotta hit my 100 quota. which may not happen. Okay, ball save is over. Let's hit the pops a couple of times, maybe. Oh, no, let's go right past it and not even touch it. Let's do that. Let's make that happen. Here we go. You'll see. There we go. 47, 46. There it is. It's really hard to get to the wizard Finish the wizard mode on the pops Damn It's really hard to finish the mode on the pops Color red You just made the logo red And you made my office at home turn red.

Like, I'm not sure if you're going to find the Stern Stars. Not sure. I don't know how many they ran and I don't know how kind of sought after they are. But if this is the thing that starts happening where people are telling you, my dude, roll this game. We believe in you. You can't roll this version, by the way. He will shift the score in the display so you can get over a million in this and it will keep track of a million. I've seen it.
