That's all I'm gonna do is hit smart Sparky. By the way, Stern did an amazing job on this. this? I really liked the Dirty Donnie one too, so I was a little... Oh really? You were like, oh, Dirty Donnie is now... A little bit, but it's really pretty good. This is really good. Not a big fan of the new art. Oh, there's one. So Fliptronic is not into it. Well, not into it, but it's not a big fan. The side art is pretty nice. All right, I got one more. That was dumb. Mysteries live from the start, yeah. The red-yellow plate It gives me Walking Dead vibes. It does a little bit, yeah. It is. Alright, I'm in a multiball now. Yay! I am not jaded at all, kids. I'm happy to be playing this game. It's very limited. And it's very addition. It's a limited edition. Should I hit Sparky, too? I don't know what to do. Oh! Oh! Oh, hit the picks, the guitar picks. And then I can do the add-a-ball. There we go. There we go. Now I can shoot the snake. And that's my add-a-ball, right? Yeah, that's my add-a-ball. See, my ball save is back up. No, no, I got all of them. I got all of them. Yeah. That's a fun add-a-ball, actually. I'm sorry about the Metallica... If you hit it twice, then they go south. 33? What? 33 more switches. Alright, hit a spinner then. Let's try and hit spinners. I'm just thinking Guardians right now. It's the Guardians playfield, so I'm thinking of... You know? Shit. Shoot the scoop. Now I hit a spinner. Shoot the scoop to do what? Okay, I'm good. Okay. I'll show you how to do it! Okay. Art is subjective, so whatever. Alright, 25. More dead than alive. Hey, what's that? There you go! Take it. Wait, are you playing my ball? I thought it was me. Oh, that's me. Why am I only in for one player? No, we're not doing this. How did you get an extra ball? Because I'm awesome. And then you got another extra ball. Because I'm awesome again. Alright, let's do this for real. I don't know how I was the only one in. If this was a tournament, That would have been on me. Would it have been? Yeah, if I play your extra ball. I think that would have been just a wash. Like, because I miscued. I miscued people. All right. I got you. All right, well then, small change. You go first. dropped by arcade last year but you were not in no if you if you come early in the morning I'm here electric chair if you come early in the morning you'll see me but then after that I I retreat until much later. Hello, I don't drop it off until today. So it's going back to Napster. I'm just trying to check it. So the whole Napster thing is about Metallica. Because of the whole Metallica thing. The mystery is hard to get. Oh, are you in Europe? I'm sorry. That sucks. I'm sorry that you came over and didn't see me. What's the deal with that? We're going to have a very violent game of hockey behind us. Maybe move it a little bit. This is the one thing I hate about here on Thursday. Our violent games of hockey behind us. I need two more of those 72s. Yeah. Oh, no. I mean, that's like your first go-to in this game is Sparky. Now I get it. And then... Nice, here we go. That's pretty awesome though. Pretty cool. That's always been cool about this game. And we had the pro before which didn't have that. Right. I'll bring the music down. I'll bring the music down a little bit. We've got music from the game and music from the speakers combined. Alright. I brought it down 1.4 dB. Let's see, Metallica authorized pinball. How did I miss this? Okay. I like that other song I did. I'm not used to it. I have a lot of songs. Wow. Oh, shoot. You know what I want to start? I want to start with the cross multiball. That's the one that I can never get started. And I always lose. My poor guy. Big sticks. He flips out. Big sticks. Plucky. He flips out. Geez. Oh, no. No. See, whenever I try for the cross multiball, I lose. A shark onesie? No, that's me. Why would I want a shark onesie? I took too long. I took too long. What do I want to do now? Okay, so what you want to do is you want to collect all your crosses, snakes, and coffins. Like these? Yeah. Yeah. So that ramp is lit too. That ramp is lit, yeah. Let's figure it out. After you've done your multiball, what do you do? That's the question, right? Alright. So, you have the same stuff. I got the same stuff left. So let me see, let me check the instant info. Two graveyard targets for a resurrect save. Four coffins to light lock. One captain ball hit the roof. Where's the captain ball? Captain ball? Who's a professional at this game? And here we go. I gotta click. 11, 12, 11, 12. And there's a way to double up on them and stuff. Right there. That didn't work. There's a way to do that, like... Uh-oh. Ah! There's a whole place, man. Rush to keep that down. Okay. Oh. All right, we'll figure this out together, man. We'll watch, we'll watch. All right, so... Dude. Try to detectable here. Oh, no. Uh-oh. Oh. It feels good when you can combo those ramps though. Oh, you do? I'm trying to combo those. When the ramps are lit you get a piece of the Metallica. Oh you do? I'm trying to combo those. Yeah, you've got the L. That makes sense. Okay, so what do you do? Like when the ramps, when the letters lit on the ramps, you hit the lit one, you get a license letter. I'm gonna tell you. There you go. Okay. Uh-oh. Uh-oh. Damn. Okay, you fulfilled all your... One. Filled that. Okay. I still need, like, crosses and snakes and whatever. I think during Sparky During Sparky You can collect stuff too Oh, nice shot. You got a snake runner. Now I want to get those snakes, right? Yeah, all the snakes are lit. Trying to get that left ramp shot down. I can't. Try to get that shot. Is that a good movie, George? I'll put that back up, Jordan, for the Christmas vote. Oh, you're coughing. Is the coffin lit? You got the coffin completed. The coffin was flashing. I think you can hit the coffin again. Nice. Good. Live, dude. It's a fun movie? Okay. You get a Metallica letter. So you have an I, you need ICA. Alright. And now you're in something. Hardwired. Hardwired, alright. That's new. All five hardwired shots lit. Hit a shot to collect a value and go to jackpot. Fifth shot, score a jackpot. All hardwired shots are lit. Those I think are the... Oh! Yeah, there you go. I think those are neat. I was always flipping on the scoop when the scoop kicked it out. I was flipping it and then I was like, no, let's just go with the scoop. I was like, no, let's just go with the scoop. We're getting it, I think. Well, see, at first I was always flipping on the scoop when the scoop kicked it out. I was flipping it, but then I was like, no, that's maybe more dangerous. I don't want that to happen to me. You know what I mean? All right, let's see. Is it a Bryan Cranston movie? Nice. Wow Thank you for the follow casual GC. Oh, I love that name casual GC. That's friggin awesome That's the best kind of GC I think that's progressive. No, it's not. Oh! Yeah, it's not. Don't worry about it. Oh, man. I think that's a good feature. I think that would be a good feature for like tournament play and even things out a little bit, like... if the bad player can steal the good player's... Yeah. ...box balls, you know? Yeah. ...basketball dice? Yeah. Any other player would just say it's too cheap. Shit. I'm trying to hit all my... Did I get them all? I don't think so. Oh, you need the right one. Wow. Nice ball. Wow. Come on, game. That fucking guy sucks. Big Snake sucks. Oh yeah. Yeah, you're a bad one. Ah. Oh. That's the sixth. Oh, the Snake's Mouth is not open. Oh, I see what I was doing. So once you hit all the things, the Snake's Mouth opens? Oh, maybe I had a... I thought you had an extra ball in there. I had a ball in there? Apparently. Slappy guns, have a good day. Look at this. This is kind of like... I'll fix it in a minute. It's like, Batman! I want that shot that's flashing. Because flashing shots mean good. Oh, shoot. Oh. There we go. Oh boy. Not good. Okay. Okay. I'm just letting the game tell me what to do. Okay, I'll shoot the scoop. Uh-oh. Crap! Hey, I got it by mistake. Look at me. Look at me. Okay. There he is. he's supposed to be here with us today Matt is in the chat right now he's gonna be yelling at the screen I bet you yeah guys you're supposed to be hitting the thing not the other thing oh I'm alive I'm alive that ball three Yeah, let's go. Main guy came three hours early. Only if you get close to my five. Wow. Man, I'm not getting near your GC. Don worry about it But this game shoots really nice This game shoots really nice God this game shoots so fucking nice. Digging these ramps, dude These ramps feel good So fun, need to watch someone else play Yeah, the new modes trip Where are the new modes at? Some RB wings Thoughts on the expression lighting? Oh, yeah. Oh, she was up. It's good. It looks good. Thoughts on the expression lighting? It looks good. Where are you going? Where are you going? Not really. I don't really have thoughts on them. They clearly don't light the play field enough, because I also have my lights on here, so I wasn't going to rely on those. It's crazy, like, how dimpled it gets. like how when it's brand new, you know, because it's not that many dimples. Yeah. Wow. But then it actually just becomes uniformly dimpled. Yeah. So it looks like, Matt, if you're watching, it looks like everything is lit. And so what do I need to do? Look, I need to hit crank it up. It's lit on there. So I need to hit the scoop. Disgustingly jealous. Don't know if I'm rooting for you or against you. Brooklyn pin says scoop. Okay, let's see. There's a way to hit the scoop automatically. I don't know what it is, though. Matt told me. Was it like hold a flipper and it comes around? I think. I'm not sure. Let's try it. Oh! Oh! I think there's a way to do it. You just let it dead bounce off of there. I just let it devour nothing. All right. What do people like? Which one? This stuff has spinach. Yeah, this is the L.E. This is the L.E. What do you guys like? Which one? For whom the bell tolls? I don't know. I'm just going to try for whom the bell tolls. Fade to black. Okay, fade to black. We'll do fade to black. That ramp is lit. Daniel, thank you for the follow. Welcome in. Mr. Pinball Theater. Okay, fade to black. Switches, advanced next stage. Shot slash switches, okay. Complete items to light. Crank it up for jackpot. Collect jackpot before six minutes. Yeah, seven minutes, which is the full length of the song. Oh, that's mean. That's mean, okay. Hey, right there, right there. Switches sound like spinners to me. Switches sound like spinners to me. God damn it. I'm swearing a lot today. That sounds like pops and spinners. Ooh. Ooh. Oh my goodness gracious. Oh boy. I just did that because it was lit. That ramp wants me to hit it. That ramp up there wants me to hit it. Oh boy. Oh boy. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I'm alive. I don't know how I'm alive, but I'm alive. Oh, look at that ball spin. Yeah, brand new rubber. Hit that shot Manu. He loved that shot. Oh hit the other shot now? That's guaranteed to F you. Okay, now you gotta do each of the main piece of shots once to be able to cash out, right? Questionable choice. It was flashing. That's why you're supposed to be here! Questionable choice. You're supposed to be here. Uh-oh, we're missing balls? Oh, they're there. I want to learn from you, Matt. Hey, Matt. You got the wrong map. I got the wrong... If I got that far on my own... Yeah. If I got that far on my own, then... Wait till I learn a rule. Exactly. Well, it didn't work that time. Hell yeah. Oh, he's starting questioning it. He does it. Oh, so questioning. You want to start over? I know. Nah, we don't have to. Game is so fun. Dude, wish I was playing. This game must be really fun because if Matt likes it, it must be really, really fun. What kind of speed are you getting to do that? No, the bouncing. Full plunge. Like, well, you got to hold it. I know. Okay, okay. Well, but not when it hits, right? Right, right. So let me see if I can do it again. No. I guess I... Yeah, I tried it too, and I didn't get it either. It's crazy that it just worked that time. I probably just got lucky. God, it seems really logical. I think it just has to be the right speed, you know? Yeah. Alright, back to Sparky. Wow. What's up, Preppy? Let's try it again. Let's try not quite a full plunge. Hell yeah! The Lars edition? I don't know. The Lars edition? I don't get that joke. Is that a joke? Do you know what that was? Not really. Yeah, but why? What's the joke about Lars about? Somebody said it's just the Lars edition. I don't get that. Oh, Ellie! Oh, Ellie! Yeah, it's the Ellie. Yeah, we're done. It's the Lars edition. I'm the first to be like, I don't get that joke. I think it's still shocking. Oh, so what does it mean when I have 72, this flashing, the 72 down there? That's new. I think that's new. That's still out of law. Okay. This is a nice soothing song, right? This ball too? Let's go. I'm going to try it again. I'm going to try it with the buttons. Oh, that's never going to get around. Doing it with the button is a horrible idea. Oh, that was a good idea, though. Why? Why was it a good idea? To try. No, do not try. Never try. That would be very reputable. Alright. Yeah, exactly. Oh, there it is. You got it. It's one out of three for me, so... Trying sucks Stop trying Matt says trying sucks So we should just You know This is awful But I I never restart a game in progress This could be it I could get I could go back to ball one Never quit. I could go back to ball one on this one, right? Okay. Let's get back to Sparky. Wow! Don't be in a rush, Manu. Don't be in a rush. Take your time. Take your time. So everyone in chat knows that when a multiball starts, that's the time for you to fix your clothes. You know that, right? You know that, right, Matt? Yeah. Whenever a multiball starts, that's the time for you to fix your clothes. So fix your shirt, you know. Are you trying to hit or are you just giving me advice? No, it's the thing I notice everyone does. Right? That multiball start. I thought you were like telling me my vibe was down or something. How many picks do I have left? Where are my picks? It's always that one over there. Yeah, right. Yeah. There it is. Got it. Now I got to hit the snake. His mouth is wide open! Ah! Ah! No! What? What? No! It was like... So, I'm saying, whenever you start a multiball, start a multiball, everyone does this. Oh yeah, for sure. I have a different multiball stance. Oh, do you? Multiball for you is like this? No, it's more symmetric. Oh, so you get in there. So you're like this. It's a lighter touch. Okay, multiball. Present, joke. Alright, got it. Get him. Mystery. I remember you used to say mystery. Mystery is lit. Like that was your mystery. All right, let's get back into these ramps. Because I love these. Woo-hoo. Is that camera still working? Yes. That auto plunger is terrible. What is fuel for? Yeah, I think that should be consistent. It's terrible. It's terrible. I go for the coffin, I get the snake. So is it just bash the coffin and you get the coffin? Yeah. Four times, I think. How many more times? Two more? That's a lot of shots. To the freaking coffin. Oh! Oh! Oh! Damn it. I almost had it. 2x scoring? Wait a minute. When was 2x scoring? I need to know when 2x scoring happens. I felt like this version was doing something weird. Where if you finish... Oh, fuel. So, do I have to... Oh, we're going to flip it. We're going to flip it. Do I have to... hit the bash bar for fuel or hit the fuel lane for fuel oh it says 2x in the lane max out fuel then shot in the back okay so bash bar it's this is literally guardians but not so bash bar to hit fuel is lit and when you go in there you get 2x okay so maybe you want to do that during a multiball. Stand up to fill the lane. Don't go away. No, no, no, no. Damn it, I did it. Stand up to fill in, yeah. Signing back in. This is probably the only way I'm going to learn this game, is for me and Matt to just bang on it. Remember we did this with, I think, was it Mandalorian? I know that game's great. I remember I hates that game. I love that game. I like that game. Oh, whoops. I like that game. It's not a bad game. I love it. It's like one of my favorite games. Yeah. I like Fade to Black. Here we go. Nope. Nope. Alright. What was that? skill shot shoot no you're supposed to start it then collect your juice crank it up look short of big ass you're supposed to start it then collect your juice crank it up that's something Isaiah That's all we're gonna do. We're gonna do a couple of single-player games. Too early is the day to play. Is it too early? Because for me, it gets too late to play. I'm really digging John Wick right now though. Why did we play that? Because this is Metallica LA. Because I am contractually obligated by Stern to play all their games that are here. And that is not actually true, but I wish it was. I'll make sure the shooter is clean so it can do that every time. John Wick is growing on you? Yeah, John Wick... Aw, crap. John Wick has... Lights out mode and... Man, I'm getting follows today. That's crazy. I really like the shots. You do? You like them? Yeah. Come on! As far as theme integration, it's still a loss for me. For John Wick. I don't even care what the theme is. I've never even seen a John Wick movie, I don't think. Thank you for the follow, Ross Gerrard. Hey, what's up, Greg? Nice shot. Oh, Greg is here. He's going to kick our ass. Oh, jeez. Very good. Strap him down. Hello from Germany. All right. He's getting caught. I don't know what... Maybe... It's like, I'm apologizing for the game for you, man. He just walks away. Come on Hey I love that I have It's brutal Yeah John Wick is Yeah You gotta be ready for John Wick You gotta be like You gotta have like A shot of Caffeine or something For John Wick Okay Let's see if we can start Sparky And then We'll bash on Fuel This is not a kid-friendly stream Clearly Clearly not a kid-friendly stream Don't board me You got another ball Let's figure it This one was just a loss, but you never know, you had that one good. He started it, he started it. No I didn't. Oh you didn't. Alright, next game, next game. You want to play one on your own? Oh, I played three first. That's alright, you want to play one on your own? No, let's play it as a player. It's going to be better. Wait, I got to go first actually. I'm gonna go first actually. Now you go. No, I mean the order of the buttons matter. Oh, really? Yeah. Left flipper, then start. You want me to go? You wanna play two solos? Yeah. One more together. One more together? Okay. Alright. That's a good one. I'm just saying. Maybe I'm icing you out every time. That's not it. I appreciate it, man. Do you wanna go first or me? Okay. Okay. Okay. Here we go. We'll be serious here. Yeah, he's in the back. We're both doing equally poorly You know that, right? It's... Alright Alright I would feel worse. I would feel worse. I would feel worse. Hell yeah! Alright, let's get Sparky going. I'm going to work on other stuff. That makes you go to the back. I think it's the guy in the electric chair. I almost messed that up. Try them up. Try them up. I think the problem is I said John Wick. What? I think the problem is that I said John Wick. And you're like staring at John Wick and you're like ready to play John Wick. You're playing this, but you're really thinking about John Wick. Maybe. Wait a minute. Oh, I'm player two and I haven't signed in yet. Yeah, he's getting fried. I shouldn't sign in. That is very extremely true. Wow, I gotta see that one. I gotta replay that one. That was pretty sick. I almost threw that one away. Damn Damn Woo! Oh! Ah! I don't know what signals to make. Hit the lights. Wait, what's going on? What mode is this? What have I started? Why is nothing happening? Uh, good question. Why aren't you just starting, uh... Why didn't my multiball start? Maybe two things are happening. We found a bug, Stern. Oh, for real? We found a bug. This is nothing. Oh, cool. Oh, it's back. Kind of. You're still in, uh, mode select. I think we found a bug. I don't think it's giving you points. No. That's cool. Alright, Stern. Alright, well, that makes me feel better about that game. What's up, Hoodie? I'm blaming all of these low scores on bugs. All bugs in the game. That was weird, right? I mean, we could send that in, actually. Something else happened, I thought, on this game. We couldn't sign out. Right? the other day? Was that with you? That was this. That was Wick. That was Wick, yeah. Different bike, different game. I think they have a bug across all games. So we could honestly send that in to Stern. I think I might do that. And you got it recorded, right? Yeah. Invisible ball mode. Oh, that sucks. That sucks. I might go get Greg in here. Yeah. Yeah. I feel you shaking the game. You're beating on our game and we're all just clumping with space. You can't get that left ramp. The block is lit. You can't get that left ramp. That one? Way in the back? Yeah. You know what's crazy? Same one? That's Nebula, right? That's Nebula and Guardians. I can't hit Nebula to save my life. But I can hit this one. Got to meet Gary shortly at the Dutch Pinball Open. Very nice guy down to Earth. Yeah, nice. It happened when we logged in. I tried to say it last time, but you thought I was being sarcastic. Your flipper skills much improved, man. Oh, shit. Now that, I mean, Matt's giving me a compliment, but that's kind of, now I'm going to prove him wrong. Oh, let me sign in. Oh, I see what you're saying, Carl Howland. After I logged in during my ball, that happened. So I'll still send it to Stern. Yeah. Yeah. I'll still send it to Stern, because that may be something that they might want to look at. Pressure's on? It doesn't happen that often. Yeah, well... It's on. It doesn't, you're right, but... During testing. It should happen. It should be part of the testing. Yeah. Alright. I see what you're saying. Oh, shoot. It's kinda hard. It's not hard. We're just bad. I know a lot of games harder than this. Like, I find Lebowski harder than this. I feel like I can play all day on Lebowski and not drain. Oh, cool. I didn't even know that was lit. Alright. Hey, pinball! Mystery Pinball Theater. Hello, Raiders. Welcome to Mystery Pinball Theater 3000. Of all the streams on the internet, this is definitely one of them. This is definitely one of them. Thank you for the raid. I hope your stream was terrific. Oh my god, dude. What was that? Why are you smacking the gate? What was that? You're like, bad game. I'm not an option. Thank you for the raid. Pinball, is that Retrony? The remake of Metallica is lit. Yeah, it's very, very, very awesome. We're having a great time right now. We're kind of getting brutally murdered, but it's not the game's fault. Thank you for the rate. Once again, what were you playing? What were you streaming? How'd it go? Let me know what you were streaming. Nope. I don't know if you can backhand that. I know. I just figured you couldn't, honestly. It was on a little bit of a roll. You can't. You can't backhand it, but I did. You can backhand this one. Nope. Oh, V-Pin. Nice. You know, V-Pin's one of my favorites. One of my favorites. I was just streaming Tuesday. Serving Safari. V-Pin. Super skill shot. Can't get that. I'm not afraid. I may want to stay away from Sparky. Sparky is trying to get stuff on you. Yeah, that's true. Close, right? Slide save. What's up, Six? How many more are those, like two more? Are we still underneath the camera? Because he split the game like half a camera shot. I haven't tilted yet. You haven't tilted yet. One more. Get it there. Okay, now you're there. Thank you. It's really hard to hit that shot from there. But he did it! Still didn't get it? No, but one more. One more. It's all flashy-flashy. You're good. Thank you for the follow! Cool! Up! Don't touch on me! Hey, hey! Don't get... You know what? Don't hate the game, man. Hate physics. Hate physics. Pinball Retroni. Thank you for the follow. Appreciate you. What's up, Six? Six, when are we going to do this game? I haven't even started a ball. I haven't either. We're both terrible. By the way, next Tuesday, I'm revealing Nightmare Before Christmas pinball. So join us next Tuesday if you're into that. Wait, what do you do? There's a pinball machine based on the Nightmare Before Christmas that a couple of cool pinball people have put together. Homebrew? Yeah, a homebrew V-pin. Oh, V-pin. You're loading up on yours. Yeah. And so we're going to show you guys that. That'll be cool. You still up for it? We got a match. We win. All right, let's change the order. Let's change the order. I will go first, and then you will kick my ass. All right, ladies and gentlemen, we're playing Metallica Remake. Those were all warm-ups. L-E. Which, they were all warm-ups? Yeah. This one has... Oh, you know Matt's getting Precision Flippers for this now. The metal ones? Yeah. He already ordered it. I like them. You know the Godzilla Pro at Mad Dog? I heard. Has Precision. You got to go over there and play it. Very nicely controlled. They feel pretty good. I'm not going to sign off and say, everybody go out and buy Precision Flippers. I'll play this Godzilla and then I'll go over there and play that one. Yeah, they feel really good. Okay? So he saw a picture of somebody, I think a pin side, that put, you know. He's good on this. Well, yeah, because I know Matt. He took one look and he was like, I have to have it for me because I have to have things that other people have. So we put a pin woofer on here, which you guys can't hear. But Manu said we should immediately go out and buy something. No, I didn't. Pin woofer on here. a pooper, exactly. I put a pooper on here. And the nice thing about the pinwoofer is that it has direct it has an auxiliary output which is why you guys are getting direct music right now. Plug that right into my streaming rig and um Okay. I'm just checking the time. Alright, here we go. And I signed this both out. I just wanted to take a break and talk to you guys through this brand new artwork big giant freaking hammer for hammer time it's been some of the problems with the old Metallica we actually have the old Metallica in the back room some of the problems with the old Metallica have been sorted out and I guess some new ones have been introduced yeah so that's don't hurt him hammer don't hurt him That's the thing. A lot more songs and more modes. Lights. And lots of lights. This has the Expression Lighting Kit plus the Metallica on the back. And Sparky, you can see his bones when he, um, it's very, very, very neat. There we go. Oh, you got it? I got it. Hell yeah. You can see his bones when he lights up. up. No, honey, we have Metallica at home. I don't get that one. Oh, damn it. The older Metallica? Oh, crap! Is this level? It doesn't look level. Don't kill me! Woo! Wow. Do you have, like, power from that? I don't know. You probably can. You can set the level of the scoop while you want to hit this it's hitting this you want to hit it harder so I need to hit a hundred switches spinter up to spinter up to How many switch hits do I need now? Ah, shoot. Lock for what? What lock is lit? I know. All kinds of stuff is happening. Hang on. Oh, I got it. Okay. My asshole's on fire! He literally... Oh, it's stuck! See how it's stuck? I shouldn't have done that. I should have just left it stuck and then beat Math High's score. high score Late, late ball save to the rescue. Hey Greg, are you out? I gotta go home and take out the dog. And then I start at 3. I'll be back around 3. But I'm hanging out for like 2 to 3. Australia. Just kidding. No. This kid's about to fly. Nice. Greetings from Australia. Finally caught up with you. Now, now, multiball. Oh, now? Okay, okay. multiball fan. A little different. Welcome in from Australia. Oh, he's looking. I can smell it. All right, multiball stance. Different stance for multiball, guys. Different stance. All right, 60 switch hits left. 15 more switch hits. Nine, eight, seven, six. Five, four, three, two. Now you hit Sparky. Oh, you're super... Don't forget your add-a-ball. There you go. There's your super. Work on your add-a-ball now. What do I need for add-a-ball? You need kicks and a... I think you got it. I did, yeah. And then hit the snake. Yeah, hit the snake. And... Oh, hooo! Oh, God! They're gonna have to go up with this thing, bro. That's a snake. That's a snake. That ball will not stay in that snake's mouth! You got it right here. Where? Oh, snake! I thought it was that. That's alright. This snake just sucks! How do you get it in his mouth? There we go! Boom! That's your add-a-ball. No, that's a locked ball. So you already got your add-a-ball. You got a locked ball right now in this snake. Or did it come out? They just want to hit Sparky, right? You got 58 more switches. You're still in the multiball. I think you locked the ball in the snake. Let's see, what is that chat saying? Nothing. Yeah, you lost the ball. Okay. Nice. So get back to your two ball. Boom! Back in the snake! So you can play with the one ball in multiball mode while that ball is in the snake. Sparky, another Sparky! Boom! You just beat my score. Sometimes I tie bananas to my feet at home. they make excellent home slippers. I think I can probably redo the Adaball thing now if I wanted to, maybe. No, you're only going to get one Adaball every time. They don't give you another Adaball. Even if I, alright. So yeah, that was excellent. That put you at a 37. I've never seen so many things you did before. You've got James collected. Now I can hit it. All you need are crosses for your crank it up mode. So choose crosses. Man I need this game. Hahaha what's up Erbski? This game is great. This is like a perfect game. It was like a perfect game already and then they just redid it. Cuff in. That's my boy right here. Let's go. Alright, I wouldn't worry about the cuff in. I got two balls locked, though. 2x scoring. 2x scoring. 2x scoring. Don't I want to maybe start that multiball? Start that multiball. Oh! Oh! I want you all to clip that. Alright man, alright, focus, focus, focus 2x scoring for the next Oh shit, no, please don't No Oh, they get stuck, I got it They get stuck in the truck Oh my god, I was gonna be so mad We do have to fix that though Alright, well, if you know how to fix it Let me look at what you gotta do You're at 50 Oh, did I get more balls? Was there one stuck in there? I guess. I don't know. It gave you all the balls. I might have had one or two stuck in there, and then I locked a couple. All right. Focus, focus. 61. The snake's mouth is open. I think you're going to add a ball on that. I don't know if there's a ball to add. You're getting jackpots on the coffin, too. Okay. Yeah. You're at 63. Oh, nice, but you got your You started your other multiple I wonder if that gives me the ball save for that last one Okay, picks, add a ball, then cough it Oh, then cough it I thought it was snake, Matt Picks, add a ball, and then cough it Nice, he can destroy, done Oh, it is snake, it is snake, okay Oh no! Okay you're still good. I got both of them back. That's cool. 42 hits. Oh come on! Look at that. Oh careful. Oh! Man! I had extra ball there. I don't know what that bonus was but I hope the game is not bonus heavy. Did he lose a lot of bonus? He lost something. Now I know. I got another extra ball. Another ball. Jeez. Blown it. You can break a hundred, man. All right, wait, wait, wait. Oh. I'm sorry, never mind. I was gonna say, see what you gotta do. You gotta hit the shots. You gotta hit the scoop. Crank it up, crank it up his leg. Full punch all the way around. Oh, it's all right. Don't shoot the ramps. Bug the ramps. Hey, shoot the scoop. Yeah, shoot the scoop. And then he shoots the ramp. Oh, man. That's so cool. Come on. Those ramps were worth a lot. Those ramps were worth a lot, though. He wasn't lying. All right, Snake, but he wanted jackpots. Yeah, yeah. So Matt is way ahead of us. Those ramps were worth a lot. All right, so now you are in hard wire hurry up, but you're also in crank it up. Yeah. That's when I hit those ramps. What's my action button for? I don't know what's the action button for? Oh, probably just select this. I don't know what I want here. Fine. Which one do you do? Just choose. Just choose. Anything but points. Yeah, bell tolls. Okay. Action button adds 200 million points. What does the action button do? It adds 200 million points. Sweet. Geez. All right, you're good. You have a ball state right now. You have plenty of time. Okay, so you can take a rest. You don't have to flip soap. I think you're getting it back. You're getting it back. Be careful. No more shaking. All right. Okay, you need to hit... I need those ramps. All right, here we go. Hit the hard way when can he cash out Matt? I don't know what you need to cash out. You did it in 100, though. You did it. Keep going, yeah. You need to shoot each of the main four shots to cash out. And I think it's telling you which one. I know. I'm trying to hit him. I know, I know. I'm not sure. I'm not sure. Oh, my God. There. As soon as you see that scoop light up, cash out, okay? I'm not used to these shots. Here's a shot he needs to hit, right? I'd like to know the inserts and the fippers. Oh. Oh. Light the inserts right above the footrest when you close it. Yeah! Oh, bro. Oh, that was so good, though! I was totally confused about what to shoot. So that was saying these light up when you're close to being done. You had only two lit. Need grave marker. Oh. Oh. Oh my god 1.38 Let's go close the screen No it will Because I'm almost out of time What? Tilt champion Alright I'm not getting anywhere near that Needs cross for collect So everybody was like The cross But we didn't know So let me just be clear because I'm joking and stuff, but I really want to know. During that crank it up mode, he had to hit the major shots. Is that just every shot? Orbit? Is that Orbit, Crosses, fucking Gamora? That was your ball one? That was your ball one. I finally have a good one. I need somebody in chat to tell me, please. During that mode, is it all shots? All right. Depending on the song, all the stuff that does or does not add to the crank it up jackpot. Okay. So it depends on the song, obviously. It was my ball one, but I had two extra balls. You had two extra balls. That's true. But you need the main four to be able to cash out on the scoop. Cross, Sparky, Captive Ball, Snake, Delight to Collect. So you just got to watch. All right. You guys are awesome. I really don't want to step up to this game and be like lost oh I forgot to hold a flipper alright didn't I do my sparky oh I do have X-Baller and I had a locklet that was one though oh that was at two that was one oh crap that We have a few more things to do. One of them is cleaning these balls. Brand new balls can have excess oil on them. So if your game is new, it's a good idea to wipe down the balls before you use them. Thanks, Emoto. It's awesome. I still got that extra ball in it. Come on, this is your game, man. It's not my game now. No, I'll blow it. This is your game, bro. Hell yeah. Hell yeah. So you want to do it again and start another crank it up. That's what you want to do. Do what again? Collect your stuff, start another crank it up. While you're working towards crank it up, they show which one are done. Oh, he's got another one. Did I get that because I hit it at the right time? You hit it a lot of times. It was pretty much ready to go. Oh, okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, I could manu nicely. Back to multiball stance. Get that. So remember, you can do your picks. Do your picks. You can get your add-on ball. That's from the back. You got three more picks to get. On the left, right? Yeah, to the left, but to the right. I think you're fixed. So the snake is red. Got my last jack, but... I blew it! It's over. I know. It's over. That was three. That was one, dude. 2x scoring, let's go. That's the second time he accidentally... I didn't mean to get that, but I got it. Second time he accidentally started 2x scoring. That's at 153 right now. Oh, that... They should give you a ball save on that. Yeah, you think? I think you get it once. God diggity, my man is wrecking me. 153. I just let it bounce, but I let it bounce one time and it didn't work. Yeah, it didn't work. I don't like scoops that are like that. Shooting a major shot will move the spider insert there. Spider insert, right? Hitting the electric chair snake or gray marker will then light a corresponding insert that lights the shot. All shots made there for the rest of the ball will spot one of those crank-a-bots. You know, Sir Snarf. I remember watching a tutorial by Sir Snark back in the day on Metallica. And I didn't know. It blew my mind. It was so much. It was so much to figure out. There it is. Nice. That backhand though. That. I backhanded this to cross. I need fuel. Badly. Backhand kids. I need yondu. That's coming back. Got him. I know, right? Alright. What lock is lit? Oh, the hammer. Hammer time! I felt good that I just hit that fuel when I needed it. I don't notice the light on the hammer sometimes. I know. It's kind of... It says Metallica. Yeah, man, you should only be backhanding that. Oh, oh, the grave. Yeah, yeah, yeah. The crosses. But I would mess up that all the time. That backhand is a little trickier than it looks. Yeah. Hey, Marty. What's up? Hey boss, do you think they have a Prince off sound for this machine? Pinbox! Pinbox! Well, I got an extra ball. An extra ball and that sparkly is ready to go. How is it not ready? I hit it 27 times. I know. I feel like it's going to take some more. Yo this, Marty, this isn't, I mean look I'm not a big Metallica fan. This is fun! And I don't know, I don't know what the hell I'm doing. I have no idea what the hell I'm doing. Alright, my 2x is ready. surprised you've not converted it to print yeah take so when the VPW one comes out I will convert it to print all right switches and picks go for switches go for picks I'm sorry, but we need to get going. My buddy John said we increase the slowdown to see if you feel better about the start. Hi, where your buddy John? That was a fast 100 switches. Snake! Snake! Snake! Shoot! Snake! Got it. Oh, for fuel? I think I want fuel. Oh, I'm dead. I'm not dead. I... Damn it. I still want my fuel. I don't care. Oh! Oh! Still going. Cool. Keep going. Okay, forget it then. I'm not going to even get that shot anymore. Shit. No, no, no, no. Up and over. In. Nice. There is no captive ball game. It's just a big metal block. Am I going to be going for a while? No, this is the last game, Marty. And then we're done. This is the last game. I'm trying to catch Matt right now. Give me something good. Add fuel. Okay. Whatever. Oh, crank it up. Can I put coffin with crank it up? We have a date with Bandit? Okay. Marty, if you get started, I'll raid you. I don't know. Whatever. Fade to black. Can I do... I wonder if I could do that. shot switches, fade to black, advance next stage switches complete items complete items and why do I have so many items right now alright that is the most pathetic auto plunge ever Why is that so hard? Why is crank it up hard? I'm not in crank it up anymore No, I don't. I thought I broke it for a second. Go for what? Oh, I see. 1.25 for that shot. And there's a mystery. Which is what? I know. That's the Guardian scoop. Yeah. Oh, because you can collect a 2x, it's gotta be. Can you show the high scores before you start the next game? Yeah, we'll show the high scores because this is the last game. Oh my god. Yes! Three! Let's go! Did they go down? Oh, no, not yet. They didn't go down. There we go. There we go. Alright. I see what you're talking about. We gotta get in there and look at that. We'll lose that one. I want fuel. I want fuel right now, but I don't think that shot is lit. Look at the shooter lane. Can you help that please? Oh. Just help it. Thank you. This game, I swear. Couple bugs. We got to increase the shooter strength. Oh, what was that, Manu? That was honest. I could have kept him there if he had reserved three balls. I know, but I don't want to do that on stream, especially. I'll do that on like a Saturday if I'm here. Oh, man. Are you still going? Still going. Oh, I still have it. You're still going. I had one in the snake. Oh. Alright, here we go. Oh, no! No! I'm coming to get you, Matt. Later, Matt. See how hard it is to backhand that? It's hard for me. I don't know why. I heard that all men are scoring now. No! No, no, no. I didn't mean that. I didn't mean that, Matt. I don't cheat. Oh, that looks good. 72 seasons. Oh, shit. I figured I'd take a sparky hit. Oh! Oh! Mystery! Oh no! Oh no! Okay, good. Oh no! all right mystery oh my god just get in there just go in the mystery just go in the mystery just go in the mystery okay forget the mystery forget forget it forget it forget it forget it I think I'm I'm out of warnings Crank it up as well. Now you definitely want to spin. It's good to actually wait and now get the speed. It's not telling me my warnings. Don't tell it. Don't give it any warnings. Yeah. This is a bad feed right here. What did I say? What did I say? You hit me with the bonus, though, and then I got one. What did I say? That was a bad feed right there. Who cares about the mystery? Well, it wasn't really the mystery. At that point, it was the crank it up. Bro. That was a very big bonus game. I'm glad I still got those. Bonus! Fuck! Let's finish it up here Oh man Oh yeah Right as I lift the extra ball Whatever Alright That was worth it right? You kind of learned Oh yeah Yeah That was a lot That was super worth it. So what do you think, Matt? Which Matt? That Matt. What do you think? You think? Matt wants to see how it scores. Oh, it's like 320 to get on the... Yeah. Yeah. Oh, boy. 435 They're all pretty tight though Very tight 435, 434, 410 385 and then 330 So you could I had the 200 something 160 160 is my best And that was like my second game Yeah me too Yeah my first or second game Fuel champ 72 seasons Yeah so that's you, MCS, Hardwire Champ. If we actually read the rules, we might get really good at this. And utilize fuel. It's a Metallica game. I know, I know, I know. Hey guys, thank you so much for joining us. Bro, thank you for stepping in. That's good. I'm glad we had one good one there. Yeah. So Metallica, L-E remake. If you can find yourself a game, if you can find this game, lay the shit out of it. Because it's really good. I'd even say, if you can find yourself a Metallica, an old one, which they should be on the market, and they should be pretty cheap, grab it, because it's always been a solid game. It's always been a solid game. All right. Thanks, guys. Oh, I got to see if I am raiding. Guys, you guys want to stick around? Because we're going to do a raid. I think... I think we're doing a raid. I think we're raiding Marty. Yes, we're going to raid Game Club Central. So... This should be great. Alright, guys. Thanks a lot. Make sure you come down to Free Gold Watch. And... Bye. Stick around for the raid. Marty is awesome. Game Club Central. © BF-WATCH TV 2021 You
