I just met somebody who just hooked me up with all the insider information. Alright, haunted effing house. I gotta take this off. I'm receiving this next week. Alright. It's being dropped. It's being delivered to my house. A joke. I love it. If you can hear me, type part with a Z and a Y. Actually, I don't know how much we might have to pull this forward and angle it in. Yeah, but you want to get the lower place, alright? Yeah, because we can look down into it, but you can't see the flippers, I don't think. Alright, Internet, we're back, we're back, we're back. On Taunted Ebbinghausen. Oh, you can almost see it. Can you see the Spider-Man? I'll pull this forward a little bit. And angle it in. No, it's going to have to come down. I mean, that's probably fine. You're not going to ever see those swimmers. Yeah. They're like in there. Yeah, they're in there. So, Internet, did you know this is the first pinball machine with three playfields? It has an upper, a main, and a lower playfield. Haunted house. It's also the first machine to have three playfields plus one ball that goes to all three. Oh, there you go. It travels to all three. This is not Murph's, but Murph is getting one of these. Are you live already? Stop talking shit about me. No, you talk shit. Yeah, we're live. Hey, Murph. Yeah, Murph Burple here. Ladies and gentlemen. Murph, come on in here. This gentleman is going to be getting one of these. Yeah, on my day. And is going to be streaming the loving crap out of it. Yeah, if you're sick of Solar Ride, you're going to get sick of this one, too. Going to stream the crap out of it. So, eight flippers, five target banks, three levels, four pop-overs. My man. Four players. Made by Gottlieb. Again, we're just finding all the weird games. How can anyone get sick of Solar Ride? That's what I've been asking myself for three years now. We might have to turn this light up a little bit. Alright, I think we're ready. Do you know how to play this? No. I don't either. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Alright, cool. Then let's do a four-point game. Two Fridays in a row you're in Canada. Yeah, I'm defecting like crazy, boys. I'm tired of America. Are they already starting to talk shit? Talking shit about me. Oh, okay. Yeah, that's cool. Have you guys shouted out your shit yet? No, no, we haven't. No? Get it. Hold on. We were being modest. No, don't freaking be modest, dude. It's Canadian. We're in full sellout mode here. Oh, okay. Gentlemen, introduce yourselves. YouTube.com slash the Canadian Arcade. Josh. Yep. Chance. That's me. And somewhere in the back is Cody. Cody! We forgot to shirt it off. This man unscrewed some light bulbs for us. So, yeah, that's us. That's us. Yeah, so we're going to do a lot of arcade, rebuild stuff, restoration. So, like, re-stencil a cabinet, you know, fix the monitor. We'll actually wash monitors with water. Oh, damn. Crazy shit like that. So, yeah, definitely check us out. We've got a video coming up on how to save back glass, so we're going to do some triple-thick on it. Oh, great. And we just did a small series on Star Wars. Yeah. So we did a pickup and unboxing. We did a gameplay and then in the third video Josh actually shows you how to blow the Death Star. Great! Fantastic. And you guys are speaking tomorrow? No, no, no. We're just part of the VIP here like you. It's just we're doing videos here. Okay. Great. I'm just here to get drunk and do my show. And it sounds like you are too. That's where we start. Okay, let's get to the game. 5% beer. Do either of you know how to play this? I have never played this game in my life. It's going to be fucking dope. Okay, so I'm going to... I'll start us off. I'll start us off. So here's the thing. There are two flipper buttons on either side, all right? You have where your normal flipper buttons are. Control the lower flippers. And your upper flipper buttons, control those up there. Oh, I'll figure it out by now. So you got a... Yo, Wax has redeemed a Twitch shout-out. Ladies and gentlemen, can I get a caster command for Wax? 3-3-3. I hate that stuff, man. I love you, buddy. Okay. Wax, I love you. All right. Here we go. Wax plays virtual pinball. My man. All right. So when you plunge, if I'm not mistaken, we'll figure it out. We'll see what happens. All right. So it goes over here. Oh, God. There's separate. Okay. So your flippers down below are controlled with the upper flippers. Oh my god, this is going to get real confusing really quick. My brain? Anyway, good luck. Murph, you're up next. Alright, sure, okay. So, lower flipper violence are the two main flippers on the main plate field, and then the other two... Yeah, so the upper flippers also control the lower plate field. But they're not armed right now, so it's not lit. Right, right, right. There is a flashing one, two, three, four. You try to get those in order. in order. There's a five in that little hole there. That's the only thing I know about this game is you try to get those in that order. Get those numbers in order and it gives you something. Yo, Owl, you're freaking fired, man. I'm going to shoot at one. Can everyone see and hear okay? Yeah, does it sound good, too? It should be. It's gone, baby. It's gone. We nailed it, man. We're going to be playing Godly Mars after this. Scott Lee Barr. That was pretty crappy. All right, well, you beat me. Josh Brown. Josh, let's see what you got, buddy. All right. Well, I have played this on Pimnal Arcade. Please join me next week for when I play my own version of this. There you go. I'm just going at it, too. I'm going to be here if I go after Josh. I have a better chance of beating Josh. Because he has something to shoot for. That's, like, weird with those slippers. Where's the trapdoors on the way? There's two trapdoors. There's a secret trap door that's right in the center. That is so sketch, that little, like... Oh, the yellow one. Yeah. On the sled. Mars got a war hype. Hell yeah, dude. The backlash on this is amazing. It's got the infinite mirror nonsense happening. A little shaky janky. The sound is good. You mean the sound is effing great. Okay, so those are the upper flippers. And those are the... The lower flappers. underneath. I think you use the green ones for those up. Those control the bottom ones too. Okay. The light animations on Gottlieb System 80 machines are fun. There's something man. That ramp looks like something from an erector set. Yeah. All right, here we go. It looks like Meccano. No, go up top. What are you doing? I hate you. It's hard to... It's like playing Blackwater 100. Jesus Christ. This game, we never use it. This one's got lightning bolts on it, huh? BAM BAM! It's the only drain! Alright. Yeah, that hits me every time on Blackwater, is the reverse-lippers. Yeah, yeah. Upside down. It's trouble, man. At least this one's not sarcastic. Wow. Weeba! Come on! Oh! Oh! We'll be here all day. The scores are okay. We'll be here all day. It's a warm-up, right? Yeah, yeah. First one doesn't matter. So apparently they made 6,800 of these? Yeah. 6,835. Logster, I love you too, baby. I had that up on my phone a lot. Oh! So this is a mechanical nightmare. Yeah, it's 8 blippers. Eight blippers, four cops, five target banks. It's basically two machines in one. Yeah, well that's what we were saying. We were like, when you read the IPDB order, like the notable features, it literally reads like you're playing, you're talking about two games at once. Yeah, 6,835 units. When in doubt, Murph just tilt. It's true. I want to give a big shout out to Tommy from Nitro for inviting us here to do this stuff. This is an awesome freaking event, I'm having a blast. Oh, I really have to, like, stand over this. Oh, like... This game's confusing the shit out of me, man. You just got boards for your haunted house thing? Nice. Get in there. You son of a bitch! Oh, yeah, yeah. I just like the back glass on Black Hole. It's pretty cool. Like the blue and the... The fish run I think. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah. I haven't seen one. No! What flipper do I use? It reminds me of Space Invaders. The lights all the way around. The double mirror. Oh my god. What do you want me to hit? I don't know. You've got to deal with Mars. Yeah. And Cody. The... Yeah, boy. All right, so what are you shooting for, Jack? I'm shooting for the... Oh, I see. I see. I see. I see. I see. Alright, so what are you shooting for, Jack? That's a great question. Apparently, spider webby things. Yeah, so clear those and you get a bonus down below or something. Did you just realize? Clear the... There's drop targets on the top there. If you clear those, you get a double bonus upstairs. There's drop targets here? Yeah, so... Oh, behind us. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Facing us, I mean. Tell me that's not a rip-off of Star Wars. Get this, yeah. I got a Roman fireball. There's a captain ball up here somewhere as well. Oh, to bash? Yeah, just to the right of the ground targets. I'm done with that. All right. So something is flashing when flashing. I don't know what that means. I also hope that Volcano stops catching up fireballs. Double scoring? Oh, my God. You're freaking done, boys. Okay, you got extra ball lit, too. Make sure you don't hit anything else. What do you mean? Okay, so you extra ball it this little captive area don't hit anything else every time you hit a pop-up or it turns off But then it turns back on again when you hit a pop-up. Okay, I see you're saying I see you're saying it's just chasing that all day What you got to just shoot that little yeah, you're gonna get right there Yeah, I don't know Oh, yeah, you're ripping off Ah! Orange and everything. Okay. Double danger. This is Man-Event Ball. Cut! Josh Brown. Oh, right. Holy shit. I got a GCM all the way up there. Yo, I'm gonna roll this frickin' thing on this next game. Yeah, I hope so. Not content for a keyboard and high score? You wanna do this too? I got a GCM all, baby. Yeah. It adds value to the game. No, it doesn't at all. It subtracts value from... Oh, I didn't tweet that we're live. Come on, get up there. No, no, no, no. We should probably send out our Instagram. Yeah, Serena, I'm going to tweet it. I'm going to tweet it. I got to wait until... I'll do my best. We'll retweet. Yes, I will tag you. Well, here's the thing. I do shit on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter. Is your name the same on all three? No, Twitter's different. Oh, well, okay. I'll get you... Let me know what it is on Instagram and Facebook. Is it the same on those two? Instagram, Facebook, same thing, The Canadian Arcade. And then on Twitter, it's The CDN Arcade. Let me create this graphic real quick. Here's the thing. You're the biggest stepping stone. Oh, that's quick. Just... you can't play, go away. Is that ball three? Alright, fire up four more and I'm gonna go last. Okay. Right here. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. Is that it? Yeah. Fire up four more. Uh... Reverse order or do you wanna go first? Okay, alright. I wanna see what this cake can do. Yeah, there's no way I can do it. Yeah, I wanna do the knife. Alright. In the cellar, that's all I want. Yeah! In the cellar, that's all I wanted. Yeah! Come on, upper footers, damn it! Oh my god. Oh wow. That goes straight down the center. So note that, straight down the center. From the scoop? From the scoop. Right down the center. That's not right. You wanna go? I'll go. Thanks, birds. Thanks, everyone. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. Thanks, guys. It's going to pop down there. Well, you know what? I just got this whole three-floor thing. Yeah. Because it's on an office. Yeah, it's a cellar and it's the attic. It's kind of a crappy house though. I wouldn't want to live there and show up to work or anything. No. And there's a freaking pinball that flies around all the time. And there's all these like monsters and shit going around. Yeah. What about owls? Owls? Yeah. They can tree inside your house. Okay, let's get some control here. Nothing really fun. Josh is in competitive mode now. We're back on this. So you guys fixed the car? So you guys fix these things? You fix machines? More arcade stuff. I just finished a restoration on Days of Ghosts. Oh cool, yeah, I like that. This is so hard. Then I'm going to do a Nintendo Sheriff next. He could make better technology. Nintendo Hellfire. Oh no, right now that's a new one. Alright. No, no, this is like Miyamoto's early stuff. He did Donkey Kong. His first project in Nintendo was Sheriff. And I was lucky enough to get one from a buddy of ours down in the States. And I got a Hellfire that same time. So... All right. Tweet it. Thank you, thank you. I tweeted, girl. Yeah, I think so. So, yeah, you just like basically put your guy around and then you have like a little weapon and then you turn around and then you push down and shoot. I've played like a bunch of games and the thing that comes down and you have to control it like that and you control the direction of it to come down it's not very intuitive at all. So maybe that's why it didn't do very well. Uh... Will you... You just played the Bandito controls. Here we go. How long do you want to spend on this game? Serena, hour and a half, please. Set a timer. Let me know every half an hour. So what's the red? The red? On the feed. Oh, that's when someone specifically mentions me in a chat. So that I know someone's talking to me directly and wants my attention. Ah, yeah. Get them drops. Yes, baby, that's what's up. Oh, we have one more. You son of a bitch. Yeah no Oh it almost rolled in there That was crazy Yes hit it Oh I love you Okay, smack it! Yep, thank you. It's like you work so hard getting your pass, Yeah, to like get good at pass, and then they throw two more fucking flippers in front of you. Uh, so well, we're getting through our ones and twos here. That's good, that's good. All right. I'd go down to play some pinball today, but you have four... Nooooo! Okay... Nope. Wow, I am so good at this. That'll work. Actually, that was, uh, I didn't jump at all. All right. Hey, don't touch the door. Get down here. Yeah, dude, if you're around, let's effing go. Quit work forever for one day of fun. Work's overrated. You know, there's other ways to make money, dude. There's other disgusting ways to make money. Oldest profession, right? Which? Accounting?

Flippers and Bucks, up for that new Twitch Prime love. Thank you so much for the support. And I call you EP. Epis Taxis? How would you say your name? Lover? I love you. Epis Taxis? I'm number four.

Just keep saying your name all night, buddy. This is better than hearing wow every five minutes. Wow. It's like dragon. Wow. You know what this game means? More wow. Thanks for the sub, buddy. I appreciate it. I love you, and I'm in love with you. Wow. It's not always this hectic on your stream, though, is it? It's not like this usually. There's not many people here? Yeah, it's not like this usually. It's usually me and maybe one other person. Josh's wife is apparently watching, so there's at least three people. Yo, Josh's wife is watching? Yeah. Yo, what up? What up, girl? Probably, yeah. What up, kids? Hello, children. Earmuffs. I know you. I still swear anyway. All right. We're going to try and knock down the rest of these numbers, so here we go. Where's Justin at? He's walking around, but he'll be back over here soon. He doesn't want an Interflip Dragon. You're friends with Patrick? Oh, it's a great machine. Alright, here we go. Just for the sounds alone. Got it. It's the one that goes . And then you can say, I own a great Interflip machine as well. Interflip. Yeah. We make pinball machines. This one kind of says wow too, but in a weird, magical way. Why don't the Dekalb people follow you? Right. Come on, you! There's... control is not an option on this game. Alright, I'm going to get back. There is no control! Yeah, where is Justin? He's probably running around somewhere. Look out. Uh... I'm trying to... No, he's right over to which you need. Oh, that's a medical term for nosebleed? Epistaxis? Epistaxis. Epistaxis. Who's up? Yeah. I think you tilted through. Are you kidding? No. Did you? Yeah. That's okay. Can you pull? I think that's yours. This is, like, flashing a little bit. It's me? Zach, who's player one? Who's player two, I mean? Josh's player two. Yeah, so I think you're up. I'm up? Yeah. We're done. We'll see. We'll see when the points go. It's not like this is serious business. It is, man. Oh yeah, there's no points involved in any of this. Nothing's moving. So go ahead and drain the ball. I think that was like a tilt where... Maybe you just kicked down another ball. I'm trying to inception this by bringing it between my feet. I think we broke it. Did we break it? We broke it. Time to restart it. Time to re... Am I supposed to? No, I... Yeah, maybe. I don't know. No, I couldn't find the power button. It's like D... Oh, really? Yeah. I was wondering why you were asking me if you were stupid. I was like, is this a trick question? Wait a second. Alright. Alright! Start from scratch. Same order. Except Josh, you broke it. So we have to start getting some replays because this is credit. You want to go first? Yeah, I'll go first. Apparently he does. And there's a window. Apparently, uh, currently. So you said you're getting one of these? Yeah, it's going on Monday. So the thing's being chopped down. It's not being played right. They had a really cool, like a professional place. Basically, a place called John's Juice. John's Juice? Yeah. And they had a place with a lot of good people. I know John. Absolutely. I'm so glad you guys picked me up here. What condition was it in when you picked John up? It was nice. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Because two months, I've heard of some people taking like two years to shop at E. They know they're called to. Oh, God. Yeah. Alright. Alright. I'm so excited to figure out how to play an all-in. What's the reasoning for that? Just so no reason. My stream I make the rules I wear the cape And I'm gonna have a lot of content uploaded the old Q2 after this So it's hair it's tricky because it's terrifying Yeah. I see. You're gonna go down that other one, I always get that right, Tramp. Yeah, it's the overabundance of flippers. I don't like it. Is it sacrilegious for me to say that I think this game would be slightly better if there were only two flippers on the bottom? I don't mind just being a boy. That's easier. I like it. It's a weird game. Try it, number one. Who's number one? Can you put this one back? It's uh It scares me That I feel like Once you figure it out It's like in a fight This one random Fucking dream here that you can sit through Is so beautiful Oh come on Or even when it just spits it out And goes straight down Well, that shouldn't happen, should have gone three down the center, should have gone to the air, and then, you know, the deck has to go back. The one? No way! What's a DDT day ever? Yeah, that's how it works. So it's worth a half-time for him, or me, or whoever. No way, no, all three. Well, okay, that's the same side of the bill. I need hand sanitizer and... Oh no! I don't know what that is. Just get the little digital level and put it up on the... Oh come on! That's it! Nice move. Yeah, that, the head, that scares me that the head's gonna shake this way. She broke the game. Go ahead and give it, give it a little, give it a little pop. Nothing? Alright, we'll pull the glass off. Yeah, no that's, uh... We'll get the glass off. Woohoo! Um, we gotta find Dale. Dale. Dale. Dale Garbutt. Sorry, guys. Dale Garbutt. Is his name Garbutt? Oh, wow. Good job. Yeah, bravo. Yeah, I think that's there. Um, oh, Dale, my man. How's it going, brother? up top there. It's a very unique place to be stuck. So that's Dale, the owner of the machine? I don't think that was Dale. That was not Dale. That was a random tech. Could be Dale. Let's call him Dale. He's now Dale. His name is now Dale. Josh's wife just texted me She says tell Josh to quit breaking the game Yeah he's got the keys coming dude That head scares me the way it's wobbling like that Oh is it? Oh yeah How am I the voice of reason? I don't want to pay deal with us I don't understand that Maybe I've just got Star Wars on the brain Oh, Josh, if you want to pull it down, I'll... Yeah, just return it to the shooter lane, I guess. I don't think so. I think we're draining that on you. Put it back in the shooter lane. What a guy. I bet it's stuck again. Get some penalty for that. Is this that? You ready? Yeah. Jesus. Did you just let it go? You don't have to rush, dude. It's good. It's good. You got plenty of time. Plenty of time, plenty of time. Do you have to lock the lockbox? Yeah, there you go. We got you. Ahhh! That was your penalty, sir. Am I up? You're two, you're two. Yeah. How do you lose track of that? Oh, I don't know. Alright, so I don't know what the skill shot on this thing is. There is one? I don't know, like what are you trying to do? What are you trying to do? Yeah, do you want it to go through the very first one? There's like three holes, right? There's three holes, actually. Yeah, do you want the cellar or you want the up top? What do you want? Up top, she says. Soft plunge. Soft plunge? Soft plunge so that it just goes over and flips the top. Yo, she knows what's up. OK, like really? Yeah. You've got to make it all the way around, but you're just trying to get in the first hole on the right. Pop it, pop it. Yep, you did it. Okay. I really feel like I have to lean in to see this. Nope. It's switching. I looked away. It's switching between the playfields. That's messing me up every time. Yeah. And you gotta switch fingers. This is a good game. I hate it when it's a good game. Oh yeah, it's the worst. No, you suck a pen-a-pen! I don't understand head draft. Alright, let's see if we can get Josh to strike again. So what was she saying? Soft plunge? Yeah, soft plunge and get it... When it comes through, get it right up. Oh, I've been doing that. He said the technique is just to try to keep it up. Oh, I've been doing that all night. Keep it up or down, but never in the middle. Right there. This is what you want, right? Damn, Captain, that's awesome, dude. Come on, you bastard. Internet, again, thank you all for the subs and resubs and stuff like that today. You've been very supportive. Again, thank you. Yeah, short ball times for sure. Oh, right down the middle.

Someone donated like 10 bucks, and we're like, oh my god, this is weird. Hell yeah. It's the first time. I remember the first time I got a donation, I thought something illegal was happening. Yo DDT Dave thank you so much Folks can I get some hearts in chat please You fucking gorgeous I thought we were going to have to show our boobs or something Wait I did But I did that. I'm very lucky.

Yo, DDT Dave, I'm going to drink so many Molsons with that. Yeah, coconuties, man. The best is Tommy came to Calgary to, like, we had a tournament in Calgary, and Tommy and his wife came in and he was getting all choked up because his wife kept bringing up pictures of him when he was younger in the band. And he was actually getting kind of embarrassed. He was a little adorable. Pretty boy. He made me pictures. Yeah, a little bit. No, Tommy's good people. Yeah, man. Really good people. There's no breaking in this game. There's no taking a break at all. Yeah, you don't get a minute to slow the fuck down. Yeah, you just can't. The only time you can stop is when you drop the ball on the top of it. Yeah, I can even do that. I don't know, I've been able to do it a couple of times. No! No! Well, we're done. Let me try again. See if I can do it. Yeah. Where's it coming? Where's it- Oh my god! What the f- Alright. So I'm gonna try and trap it up there, again. If I can get it up there. Sorry for yelling at him. Just a little bit. I didn't swear. It was what the fuuuuuck. So we were gonna... It's like your syndrome. What the fuuuuuck. Your donate to kids shirt, we were gonna make a shirt that said kids on it for me. Wait, what? So like... You were looking for that money? Yeah, so like you had a shirt that said donate to kids, and then I was just gonna wear a shirt that said kids. Now I need a bunch of people to buy weird shit. We can do that. We can go down the street and there's a t-shirt company. You got a t-shirt deli? I love those. It's a company called Bang On. I have so many freaking one-off shirts in my wardrobe. The shirt that says Dad Flip that someone made me. Yeah, I saw that. We're gonna set by Tommy's wife at Hynberg. Nice. We walk between balls. Yeah? We talk between balls. I'm an idiot. It is possible. Trap it up, baby. But you can't pass. Oh, you can do it. Yeah, but you can't pass. There's no way. Oh yeah, what are you gonna do then, Ray? It's called a pop pass. I guess. Dude, that's awesome, DDT. What is five? Just like another target? Ah. I'm playing like you, kicking the foot. Wiggle your legs, baby. I'm the Elvis Carson-y pitbull. My knee hurts a little bit. Oh, no, no, no, no, no, no. Go back. You have that stupid hoodie that's ripped off my head with, unless you never got one of those. What are you talking about? What? I don't know of any rip-off Deadfoot, but he's... Chinese knock-offs? You know you've made it when everyone starts ripping you off. No kidding, man. That's like, uh, who's that good artist copying great artist's steel? I mean, unless you're dealing with Nintendo stuff, then they're just gonna gut you with their lawyers. Yeah. Remember lawyers? Oh! I am rolling the shit out of this man. Yeah, you do it. Oh, there we go. Wait, that's a ferry target? Yeah, did you see that? That's freaking awesome. It just like swallowed it. I didn't even know that was gonna happen. Holy shucks, that's cool. So there's that one there in the middle, and there's the little trap door on the right hand side here. Someone a long time ago made Bootleg donate to kids shirts that said Dead Leap on the back. That was Adam Chrysler that started the North Star Pinball in Montreal. They made them in their hotel room. You're Player 1. Me? You're Player 1? Yeah. Better. I was, uh, heading down to the cabin. Two Canadian beers. That was so fast. Wait, was I Player 4? That's me. Or I was Player 1. You were Player 1. I was 2. That's the one over here. Yeah, I like it. I like it. Do you like it? I still don't have a cramp. I think I'm up to a quarter. Eight flippers. Eight flippers, four pops, five target bangers. Yeah, it's a lot. It's a whole lot. It's dope. Okay, go ahead and stop it for a second. Alright, so... Wait, who was player three? Jason. Oh, God. Ah! All right. Pardon, eh? I... You know, I think when you're, like, ending and, like, sort of tilting, it confuses the game. But it picks it up, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know. There we go. There must be a trough issue or something. It looks sort of like there's, like, a gummy material on the trough. Ball's probably just getting hung up there. How do you score points in this game? You don't. It scores points on you. I score H-A-U-S. House. How do you get to number two? Frog flippers you dumb son of a bitch! Sorry for yelling in here buddy. Alright. In this fucking game! Me now? So you feeling better? Yeah. Yeah? Yeah. I feel like a ghost. Woo! I feel like a ghost. Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! Woo! It was those ketchup chips they did you in, really. It's something that we have to, in our country, we have to work our way up on. Anyone who's on the stream right now from Canada is like, shut this kid up. All right, let's break 200 here. I'll take a car. Nice shirt, dude. My man. Great guys make a life. You should get a picture of Timmy to feed. Now let's do that. Let's go. Oh, we're good. Oh, you bastard. You just unscrewed those. Dude. Oh, you bastard. Thank you, Serena. Oh, I get to shoot again. Oh, la-di-da. I did not mean to hurt you. Awww. I didn't give you guys team health like that. I just flipped over you. Yeah, what's the acutely score right now? Now he's fighting. Yeah, there's no way. Aww. Back to the back. Can I get bonus points? Of course. Do you need bonus points? I don't think you need bonus points. I think you need bonus points. Is there an exile here? How about you give him a chance to walk around? It's awesome, dude. It's pretty great, man. All right. Jared, are you in on this? I don't think so. So Jared knows what's up. We're out of credit. Okay. Now we have a problem. The thing is, we need the keys to this because it's not on free. I don't think it has free. Oh, no, we need... You know what? We need to go play Modem. Do you need it unlocked? Don't let it appear. No replays means we shit the bed. Oh, they have a list of the games? That's awesome, Kitti Neko. Do you have any more of those... Can you give me more? Can someone find a staffer? Hold on. Is that my back beard? I'm walking around with it. Yeah, well, you're walking around with it. It's licensed up here. Oh, you can zip it in your own beard? What? Yeah, that's why I said like it was... You can't bring it here. It might be licensed, but I don't think they want the... They don't want the... They don't want the... They don't want the... Um... I'll go grab some of the... I think there's a guy right there. Sorry, Internet, we need the keys to open the steez. Drop in the D's, lick in the T's. What? Come down to Sacramento with Justin, I'll hook you up with one to play. Aw, yeah. Is there a doorbell under the cab? A doorbell? No. Hey, who's that rando that gave me that throat lozenge? I'm feeling funny. And I want another one. I'm like talking to you. I'm just trying to like see the old throat. I'm like... Yeah, right. I need a weed gummy bear, please. Oh, my bad. Here you go. I don't know anymore. Are you sure you're okay? You're just like staring off at me. I don't know, man. Oh, something's wrong. All I hear is go to my room. Go to my room. I see a Red Bull. I'm not selling that. Huh, are you the right key? Uh, is it like a little switch thing? Yeah, this guy here? I said I bought it. Oh, shit, my bad. Oh, you got it. No, I, that's, that's, uh, yeah. I'm going to turn this off real quick. Are you tired? So the bottom of the point bag is a little tiny thing. Yeah, I feel it. Oh, Jesus Christ. God, thank you. Sorry about that. Cheers. Okay, we're back. I didn't break it all the way. Some good music on here. So I'm just gonna flip like this. All the flippers at once. You trust the game. You ready to play? Go for it, brother. We were about to go meet Jersey Jack. He's like, is that Jack? And I'm like, yeah. He's like, I've never met him before. I'm like, go say hi. He's like, uh, okay. Is that a lock word? Man, a ball one veg shitter. Damn, Tony. All right, Jared, you're up. Big boy. I got you. Yo, what's up? Show us what you got. Show us what you got. Show us what you got. Oh, well, that's not for us to mess with. We can probably pull the tech over or drop the replay value or something. Which would probably take more. There you go. Some people wire it to the start button. See, here it's playing right. It's all calm and collected. I'm gonna wiggle that right out of the bubble. Murph was gonna beat the pants off you. What happened? I don't know, guys. He choked? Oh, it's like Murph is going to be in pain, so what happened? He choked. He saw Jersey Jack. Oh, I saw how he dressed Jack. Yeah? Yeah, he's the best guy. You ever been to Canada? No. You guys ever been here? Alright, Murph, you're up. Hey, JK, thanks for all that stuff. Don't choke. Yeah, no choking, alright. No choking, no choking. How many people are in there right now? Uh, 72. Crazy enough. 100% It's always 72, right? Like, oh yeah. Wait. I don't think Jared's physically here, but I don't think Jared's actually here. Every time you shake it. I'm trying to get it back. Remember, if you're stuck on an island for the rest of his life, you've got to show him what's up. From the pizza vanilla icing. What? It fell out. I know what they're talking about. I think I got him. You're very good. Nailed it. Oh, almost nailed it. Back in it. Oh wow, I gotta catch up. Is that, Jared, your three, right? Uh, yeah. Yeah, he's playing. So maybe he's just never played before. Yeah. Pretty unique, the game looks frustrating and it turns out to be frustrating. I had a second thought to the white one. No, really? Really? Yeah, it was awesome. What's it like? A lot of fun, but it's shallow. Length of day, dude. Gimmick games sort of wear out a little faster than normal games So I got to where I kept skipping it you know And plus it very valuable It about a game Really Oh yeah So I got a good deal on it and had to wait until I checked what he had in it so I was able to roll it into something I like a little more Oh yeah. Yeah, we just played one of these coming on Monday. I did that for myself. Great game. In Dallas, like, a fish tails and a Carmen house would be about the same price. Yeah, yeah. So like, for free? I don't know that has anything. This is awesome though. I hate fish. Big corks. They call me a big cork. That's my favorite part about it. Yeah, the theme is pretty dope. My wife and I are big fish. The theme is so good. Can I use your suit though? Absolutely, go for it. Be as loud as you want buddy. Come on buddy. Are those Tardis? Yo, you're coming? Let's go! Echo's engine. Echo, are you going to wear a special shirt when you come over? So folks, buttholes. We have beaten 700 matches. I don't want to believe that that's the high score that we can't beat on this game. Where's the big money on this? Is it all gone? I'll have to pay attention to someone like Josh is not over there. He's put almost $400,000. Yeah. All right, let's let's go to the dope. There was a prototype ROM for this game that did an add-on ball, but they never released it to the public. Some people have gotten a hold of it. You can buy it so you can make it into a two ball game. Nice. A lot of people don't like that this game doesn't have a multiball. That's another one of the big complains you hear. So around when they got to Black Hole they fixed it. It has a two ball multiball but you lose the upper plate build. But they added the interactive back lines. So it's really just sort of like what do you enjoy more. But this theme is really awesome. Pretty fun man. To be honest, do you really need a multiball? Yeah. That'd be too crazy with three playflips. Yeah. Look at this, there's just no... It would be bedlam. The kick-out is so filthy, freaking dirty. Yo, Tarek, thanks for the bits, dude. So, you know what? I think all your money comes from staying down there. Yeah? But no, like, think about this, like... A multiball on this with four flippers down here in that third level, like, that would be too much. Yeah. I know this display here, we can see the bonus, but you have to hit a target to collect it. I thought you were playing downstairs to get the bonus for upstairs. We're basically switching between the two. I think you have to make the upstairs. I thought you were building the bonus for upstairs. I think you have to make the upstairs. I don't think so. Oh, you missed that bonus. No, I don't. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. Oh, okay. I think I can trap the ball on the left one too. You're VIP whenever you want. Most people? We might do one or two more games. There'll be Mars and then one other game then. Alright, internet, we'll stream one or two more games and then call it for the day. Machines I mean. Machines. Oh yeah, that's what he said, he got like new boards or something. Yeah, he's been trying to chop it out. These are not easy machines to fix. I wouldn't imagine. So I've got mine and a guy named John's used. No! He's got like a... No! ...Grammar, right? Dang good. And he's had it for like three months trying to fix the thing. He's a professional. He's been doing it for 40 years and he's had it for three months. Three months. What's the next machine? I'm thinking... Gottlieb Mars, God of War. It's right next to this so we don't have to go far. Machine inconvenience. So we've literally only been playing machines by two guys all day. Dale? Dale and Warren. Yeah. Dale, Warren. Dale, Warren. I think those are the two guys that have most of the games. Yeah. I think we're good for one more. Oh, did you get it? Yeah. It just forgets everything. Maybe it misses the sugar lane or something like that. It did it last time, too, where you just had to wait. Three matches? Yeah. That's scary. Yeah, baby. Here we go. Sharks. Uh, yes, uh, dammit! Not like this! Ah, get in there! Yay! Oh, yeah, thank you! Um, I just, uh, I don't, um, usually I'm up here to, um, travel around So if you like seeing this machine and you want to see it for the next three years, tune in to my stream. Alright, it should come straight down, that's for on and off. Sorry about that guys. Jared's on his phone right now, so I'm going to play with you. You look busy, I didn't want to... You want to be free? So we lost Josh and Cody for something uniquely Canadian. What's that? I'm going to go grab a case of beer. I was worried about that. I mean, probably wasn't raining every day, but this beer was a lot. Yeah. Just a case. All right, might as well. I think I'm a Cooper. Cooper. That's more of like an Eastern Canada thing. No, we have Cooper. Well, no, it's like May 2-4. Like May 24th. The girlfriend's from Ontario, from Kingston. And every time May Long Weekend comes up, she's like, oh, May 2-4. I'm like, May Long Weekend? Yeah, May 2-4. It's like a 2-4. I love you. Who are you? I did not eat any poutine yet, man, but I think Jared wants to go poutine it up with me, man. What's that? Get that poutine. Yeah, I want to get some poutine badly, but I don't want to do it alone. What are you afraid of? No, I just... He has a bag of ketchup chips and two tinny beers and he's out cold for an hour in his hotel room. Yeah, is that why you're not getting some of them? No, I don't... I saw... I saw that about Billy Bob. MOTHERFUCKER! I feel like I'm low on batteries. We laced the ketchup chips with some. Here's the thing. After this four player game, I gotta play a game just by myself. Just to get the shit out of my system. And then we're gonna switch over to Mario's Voyager. have to kill the stream. We can kill the stream anyway to go get another air. At some point. Decompress in between the games. It's a frustrating game. And plus at some point Jared needs the buddy system to go get some food. Yeah. It'll be a good game to learn on though. Is there a poutine around here? Yeah. Right around the corner. Oh sweet. A real close one. Yeah. We rolled into one when we were in Texas after a wedding once. I'm just looking at her like we're the idiots at the box. Boutinerie! So close. Boutinerie. Boutinerie! Yeah, Budweiser, this game's a f***ing... I wanna open up freaking scenery and down the world's first boutinerie. We're like big Canadian flags at the top, and there's like a beaker... Turn the base camp into a walkthrough. No, man. The moment people realize you don't have the proper cheese curds, which is gonna be your expense right there. Cheese curds have to be good, the gravy's gotta be good, and then you got business. I get it. If you ship that in from Montreal, you're good. Get the coin. So why is everyone playing with me? I don't know. Alright, number two. Number two? Aargh! Bow and arrow. What is it, four, though? Bow and arrow. Alright, let's play a three. Here? Here, a two again. J-Ram. Internet. Um... That's not like what I know. Oh, that's not, that's not... Here's the thing. The Cleveland Indians, you just don't... Redskins, you just don't think about it. Huh? This is sort of what tomorrow's gonna be like too. There's a bunch of off and on random games that we're gonna show. And at 5 o'clock our time, which is like right now, tomorrow, Tomorrow, we're going to be streaming dialed in. It's going to be a big to-do out in the hallway, and it's going to be lit. Very well. Very well lit. You're doing it with Jersey Jacks, though, right? I don't know. I don't know. We'll be in the neighborhood if we need someone to play. I mean, I do the show by myself all the time. I almost prefer doing it by myself. Well, fine then. I'm just going to... Oh, man. The party vibe's where it's at. You're gonna walk away anyway? What time are you going to start tomorrow? Uh, we're gonna start early. I think I'll start around 10 o'clock, 9 o'clock, 10 o'clock this time. Uh, local time. Trevor! Nooooo! Nailed it. Oh, you son of a gun. So early. You didn't. You. Pull my hair out, man. Yeah. My hair comes out. Alright, number 3 is the next stop. This is a resident sleeper free zone, thank you very much. No problem. Mucho. Sorry, bro. That's the way it goes. Leitre. Mucho gusto, me llamo Jack Danger. It always sounds like Solaris is a good game to learn on, It's gonna be a little bit of everything. And fresh. And I don't know, I just gotta get this thing out of here. It leaves itself. It's a weird one too. It's not like anything makes sense. You're not draining the same way every time. Jared, you just blew my mind. What was that? It was a beautiful save to a shitty trade. There's a... there's a stool if you want to take a seat. Time out. Beautiful save to a shitty grey. Alright, yeah, after this I'm going to play a solo game and then I'm going to go get a Molson. After this I'm going to go charge my phone and then go find that case of beer that the other two got. Probably won't be cold yet. Double danger, I think you're missing two more flippers there, buddy. Two on the left, two on the right. Two underneath. No! That's cheap! All right, let's see if I can blow this baby apart. Okay, well I'm outta here. All right, brother. Be good. Nice to meet you. Yep, absolutely. See you guys later. This is it. This is all the cash. There it is. So what are those drop targets doing? Those drop targets are your bonus, I think. Is that right, Drop Market? I don't remember. It's a weird game. I don't want to miss a quote. I don't want to miss a quote. I'm a live viewer. I'm not sure. It could be a live test. So early. Yeah, the solo's not going to take me there. I can already feel it based on that first ball. What? Dude, this game hates me. It hates everybody. Don't worry about it. So what do you do? Collecting one through five. What does that do? I think that's your multiplier, your bonus multiplier when you hit the drop targets goes up. Alright, one more, here we go. So you're saying, oh that? That's what I'm thinking because the bonus multiplier went up when you dropped those targets. Okay cool, let's check it. Let's check it. We're going to open this wide up. Now it's up again anyway. Oh, you know what it is? Now it's up again anyway. Oh, you know what it is? When you go to the attic itself, that increases the multiplier. Oh, just going up there? Just going up there at all increases that. Thank you, Serena. I almost... Well, I did hit the wrong flipper button, too. I want to learn that freaking ramp shot. Let the heat flow through. Alright, so you hit the cellar. Your bonus multiplier went up again. So it's going up and down. So going in the cellar or in the attic will get you the bonus multiplier. Great. Get in there. No, you turd. Oh, we did it! No! Did it go up again? Double scoring down here, huh? So it's not double scoring anymore. Okay, okay, we're getting somewhere, we're getting somewhere. That works. I'm trying, I really am. Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha. Yep. This is a beloved game, everybody loves it. By who, sadists? How's it going? I'm just over here yelling at myself. Okay, I'm gonna go get a beer I love you guys I love you guys Tune in Half an hour to 45 minutes We're gonna be on Gottlieb's God of War It's right next to this I love you, F this game I'll see you soon, goodbye, forever I'm never coming back It's intermission time Wait, what the hell is happening? Are we still live? Wait, what did I click?

    product_concern: Haunted House's eight-flipper design creates steep learning curve and potential playability issues for casual players despite historical significance

    medium · Player commentary: 'Is it sacrilegious for me to say that I think this game would be slightly better if there were only two flippers on the bottom?'; 'It's like you work so hard getting your pass... and then they throw two more fucking flippers in front of you'
