TL;DR

Schelberg showcases Galactic Tank Force dev process and pinball's pop culture presence at Expo 2023.

Summary

Jim Schelberg presents a multimedia retrospective at Pinball Expo 2023 featuring video clips and interviews about pinball culture across TV, film, and history. Primary focus is a detailed behind-the-scenes look at American Pinball's Galactic Tank Force, including designer Dennis Nordman explaining the game's mechanics, animator Jessica Derbala discussing 3D modeling work, and actress Carrie Huskins describing her role as Empress Anoia. The presentation also includes pop culture pinball references from shows like The Simpsons, Cheers, and others, plus a trivia segment revealing Sarah Jessica Parker's childhood pinball nickname.

Key Claims

  • Sarah Jessica Parker earned the nickname 'Pinball Parker' during her Broadway run in Annie due to her arcade playing skill

    high confidence · Direct quote from Sarah Jessica Parker in video segment: 'I was really good at it, and I came to be called Pinball Parker... I was introduced once on stage as Pinball Parker.'

  • Dennis Nordman designed Galactic Tank Force to reintroduce randomness to modern pinball, contrasting with typical 6-8 skill shot designs

    high confidence · Nordman states: 'I wanted to get more randomness back into pinball because most of today's games are like seven or eight skill shots... that would make families, like sons and fathers playing, that maybe a kid could do as well as his father because of the random element.'

  • Galactic Tank Force features gameplay inspired by Buck Hunter video game mechanics with tank battles and progressive difficulty

    high confidence · Nordman explains: 'The rules are a lot like Buck Hunter, the video game... One of these targets will be lit red. If you hit it when it's red, that's an instant kill. Otherwise, you'll take three damaging shots to destroy the tank.'

  • Paul Reno is co-designer/builder of Galactic Tank Force with Nordman handling design and Reno handling wiring and cabinet construction

    high confidence · Nordman states: 'I brought Paul Reno in to help me build this because I don't know how to wire a game or anything. He helped me build the cabinet and the play field, and he's my partner in this game.'

  • Carrie Huskins has 25-year video industry career starting from Jack Hager requesting cheerleaders for NBA Jam arcade game

    high confidence · Huskins: 'It all actually did start out with Jack Hager. He gave me a call at Playboy when I was working there... needed a couple cheerleaders for NBA Jam. So that game led to Revolution X with Aerosmith, and then Mortal Kombat was looking for a new Sonya for their third game.'

  • Galactic Tank Force narrative involves Empress Anoia battling over a moon where cows make ice cream

    high confidence · Nordman explains: 'The whole reason for this tank battle is because this crazy queen, Empress Anoia, is trying to capture this moon that these cows are on where they're making ice cream, and she wants to become the ice cream queen of the galaxy.'

    • Yeah? Yeah, but you can see it. I can't see it. That's what you wanted. Can you just play that one, the first video? Yeah.
    1:59
    I tried that. I dragged that over. Yeah. I thought I'd fall through with the movie. He's gonna get what he deserves.
    2:42
    It's time for the show. Take your places. Fun at Cinemark is contagious. You're ready to party. You're ready to rock. You're a winner at Cinemark. Okay, normally this would be quicker. I'm trying here.
    3:00
    Tap, tap. It's not doing anything. I'm sorry, Martin. Oh, yeah, how about... I don't know. I'm working at it.
    3:15
    Yeah, it's not dragging. I know, I'm sorry. I have it there. I went to the desktop. Yeah, that's what we had. That's kept happening. Okay. So you wanted to play that one? Huh? You stopped clicking. I tried that. I did try the normal stuff. Okay. Yeah.
    3:47
    What's happened? Okay. I don't know what's happening to that. Let's just kill that. Turn off that again.
    4:07
    Yes. Can I pause it for a minute? Yeah. You have to go over to it. Oh, over there. Press the space bar.
    4:18
    No, just press the space bar. Oh. Okay. All right. So a number of years ago at the whatever show in the West, at the Denver show, I made a video trivia segment. And it's trivia, but it also has clips, which I like to show. So anyone, while we've stopped, anyone know the answer to that? Roy Parker. I'm sorry? Roy Parker. Roy Parker? Okay. No. Sarah Jessica. There you go. Oh, here, wait.
    5:26
    That's the answer. Take off in three minutes. What's up, man? Oh, shit, what's up? I thought you were someone else. Pinball Parker. I'm Rob Arsh and this dope fiend. I'm a hell of a nice guy. I just got caught.
    5:53
    Goddamn. So that's what happened to Pinball. Cut him loose. He's slowing us down. Dead weight. Bye, pinball!
    6:06
    Although TV and film star Sarah Jessica Parker doesn't have a game named after her, in the days when she appeared on Broadway as Annie, her lunch hours were spent at a local arcade playing pinball, thus giving her a new name. I was really good at it, and I came to be called Pinball Parker. I mean, I'm not kidding. This is truly my name. In fact, I was introduced once, like, on stage as Pinball Parker.
    6:30
    I could have edited the words a little shorter, sorry. There are so many things of pinball in this show. I don't have a third of them.
    7:00
    Okay, everyone. Straight ahead is my big surprise. Look out for the stairs. You redid the basement. Whoa, feel the pile on this shag. Whoa, baby. Will you look at that paneling? I feel like I'm back in wooden times. Check out this pinball machine. Chevy Chase and foul play. Pinball, eh? I've always wanted to try this.
    8:03
    Wow, the graphics are amazing. That ball almost seems real. Sir, have you had enough exercise for this morning? No.
    8:14
    Let's go another 20 miles. Yes. You gotta help me. My daughter found out I'm a jerk. Oh, Krusty, I'm sure she just needs time to get used to you. Marge, may I play devil's advocate for a moment? Sure, go ahead. Come on. Get in there. Go.
    8:36
    Stupid game. Hey, Chief, look what I got in my lappy meal. Oh, mini pinball. Hey, give that back. Give what back, Lou?
    8:46
    The beast looks something like this, only without the saucy T-shirt. Check. Okay. He's been down in that icy water for hours. How can the lad survive such brutal punishment?
    9:18
    Jill, you monster! No, don't do that. That hurts. Careful, careful. Hey, what's the big idea of getting trapped under that thing? Uh, long story. Uh, we were trying to impress some girls, and things kind of got away from us. Just for the record, I regret nothing. Eh? Yeah!
    9:40
    Homer, how'd your right arm get so strong? Just lifting this dumbbell. 49,999... I opened for the who at Woodstock. I came out in a beetle wig with a ukulele. Hendrick said he almost plot. His exact words. Oh, I'd never tire of that story.
    10:03
    Hmm, not like the Who to be tardy. I'm worried. What's that? Yeah, it is the Who. By my reckoning, they're in the scurvy depths of New Spring. Almost all our rock performance. That fat, dumb, and bald guy sure plays some real hard ball. Magic Bus! Yeah, Magic Bus! Okay, we'll play magic bus if you tear down this wall.
    10:30
    Pinball wizard! Audio of music 400 In a Rolling Stones song a Siamese cat of a girl was under this It was under my thumb Lane Body of Music 800. In the Who's song, Pinball Wizard, the title gamer has such a supple this.
    11:10
    Dan. What is thumb? No. Oh. Annette. Wrist. What is wrist? What is wrist is right. Okay. So, yeah, the first wrong answer got, or the first answer, thumb, right, got him in his mind. And he, I think, knew the right answer. All right, now we're coming to the peak, David. We're coming to the peak behind the scenes in American film.
    11:48
    Mostly it's about their current game, Galactic Tank Force. So this first one, and I'm sure it will take me a second to get it up there, but as Dennis Nordman, no, it didn't. Don't get old. Dennis Nervin explaining the beginnings of the game.
    12:14
    Let's see. Yeah. Media player. This is my atomic tank core game. That's what the name started out as. I was looking through my collection of tin toy pictures from the Internet. And I discovered, well, I knew about them, but I saw these space tanks, which had a lot of straight lines. So I thought, well, maybe I can use one of those as inspiration for a pinball cabinet.
    12:47
    So I started sketching and drawing, and I realized I could use a standard pinball cabinet. I added these treads to the side, changed the back box a little bit, and added this turret on top with the gun barrel. So it looks a lot like a giant tin toy tank.
    13:06
    And the way this works then, so then it transforms into a pinball machine. This part folds up, sits on top of the back box, and the back box lifts up. Now it's a pinball game. And that light you can see while you're playing, so we can use that for jackpots and stuff. and so the play field, I wanted to get more randomness back into pinball because most of today's games are like seven or eight skill shots or six or seven skill shots. So that's why I had all these lanes, and I've got targets by the pop bumpers that you can't shoot. You have to get them randomly from the pop bumpers. I just thought that would make, like families, like sons and fathers playing, that maybe a kid could do as well as his father because of the random element.
    14:04
    Or even somebody like me playing somebody like one of the top pinball players. You've got more of a chance if there's randomness involved. So what the game is, is you're driving this kind of space tank and you're battling an enemy tank. And it's right here on the play field.
    14:28
    Right here on the play field. So you try to destroy the tank. The rules are a lot like Buck Hunter, the video game. I really like that because I kept coming back to that game trying to get a head shot for every round that I played. So that's the same way the tank works. One of these targets will be lit red. If you hit it when it's red, that's an instant kill. Otherwise, you'll take three damaging shots to destroy the tank. Once you destroy the tank, it pops up and a monster pops out.
    15:02
    Then you have to kill the monster. Then you kill like five tanks and five monsters. You become an ace.
    15:10
    I brought back the swinging target. It'll have a UFO on top. and he's trying to capture the cows. There's a planet. So there's a mirror back here. So the planet looks like a full planet with rings.
    15:27
    Yeah, that's cool. That was Paul's idea. I brought Paul Reno in to help me build this because I don't know how to wire a game or anything. He helped me build the cabinet and the play field, and he's my partner in this game.
    15:40
    Oh, so here. So when Jack Hager saw this, he comes up with this idea because he saw the cow. So he comes up with this idea. The whole reason for this tank battle is because this crazy queen, Empress Anoia,
    15:59
    is trying to capture this moon that these cows are on where they're making ice cream, and she wants to become the ice cream queen of the galaxy. So that's why there's this whole battle going on, battle for ice cream. So this white wood had no rules or anything in it. It just flipped, so we could at least test our shots. Now we have a white wood with some rules and stuff in it, and we can go look at that if you want to. Yeah.
    16:36
    Here's our first real white wood, starting to get some rules and stuff in it. 3D printed ramp. These are going to be wire forms, but it takes so long to get the wire forms in that I handmade these ramps in this one and I handmade this ball popper ramp so we could at least play Now this one I've added some drop targets on each side. I don't know if those are going to stay or not. I've been debating that today. One of the reasons is this one is down. There's a ball trap here because these aren't angled enough. The other thing I don't like is now you can smack this post. I don't like hitting posts and not getting any kind of sound. That's why I got a target. There's no posts on here that you can hit. So everything you hit is going to give you a sound. New pop bumper caps that look kind of spacey. It's just three stacked discs. They will be red translucent acrylic, transparent acrylic. And there will be a clear dome with an RGB LED in it. There's a diverter here. We're debating for the idea to make a player controlled with another button so the player can either divert down here or if the rules make it better, he can go down this way. That's about it for now. Okay, well, yeah. Boy, first here's 3D printed UFO. It looks nice in 3D printing. The ridges, I like them. It looks like Flying Saucer. And then this is just for some dumb display. Well, yeah, you got to have fun. Yeah. All right, Dennis, I appreciate it. You're welcome, Jim. Thank you very much. Thank you. It always amazes me how much it takes to make a game, or a car or whatever. I mean, I think people sometimes think, oh, well, they'll draw it out, and then they'll make it. And that's just a teeny little bit of, like, they had a two-, three-hour discussion about those drop targets. And we put them there, and we should not have them, and we do this. It's just unbelievable. So as you heard, there's a whole other aspect to the game now, the video, story, and all that. And I happened to be there during the filming for one character, Princess Anaya. And this is like a just quick summary of some of the stuff that she did there. Oh, but first there's an interview with Jessica, who's the animator. So you'll kind of see her. She was involved in the filming. but Jack Hager was the real director of it. So if this keeps working, I'll have to mirror it. I'm Jessica Derbala, and I am working on the animation and modeling for American Pinball for the game Galactic Tank Force. So right now I'm just doing some basic research and transferring different types of files between the different 3D softwares. somebody else on the team is modeling one thing like a spaceship and so I'm trying to convert because I use one software and I use a different one for animating and texturing and lighting and all that so because I usually work from home so you have a bigger computer I have a much bigger computer at home where I do all kinds of things animating and modeling and all that this is just like one test video I'm doing of a force field being hit. It's the first draft and I was kind of figuring it out when using the new software. So that's just one. Oh yeah. So just a little test run here for a force field tank battle.
    21:14
    Yeah. OK. So that's the test. So right now, I'm working on a lot of force fields. And then I be modeling the environment and the moon surface and animating cows and all kinds of fun stuff I bet All right hey thank you very much Thank you. Appreciate it. Yep, no problem.
    21:38
    So we're here at American Pinball with Carrie Huskins, and they're filming parts for Galactic Tank Force. and you became famous in the video world. How? Well, it all actually did start out with Jack Hager. He gave me a call at Playboy when I was working there, and I happened to be in the office, and he needed a couple cheerleaders for NBA Jam. So that game led to Revolution X with Aerosmith, and then Mortal Kombat was looking for a new Sonya for their third game and they asked me to do it.
    22:26
    So here I am 25 years later. So Jack asked you to tell us? They were looking for a character Empress Anoia and Jack called me and thought I would be good for the part. So we've been having fun ever since.
    22:40
    Thank you. You'll never escape this one. No. You're defeating my magnificent forces. No.
    23:00
    No, it wasn't that. No. I'm just trying to accept. No. You're defeating my magnificent forces. So there's still force in it, but you can push yourself back.
    23:13
    No. You're defeating my magnificent forces. I won't go with the first one. You're fine. Behold my indestructible spider.
    23:29
    Behold my indestructible spider. Can you do it with your arm hooked out a little bit more than up so you don't get cut off?
    23:38
    Yeah. Okay. Behold my indestructible spirit men. Tanks, rumble forth and destroy. Looks like you lost all your models.
    24:10
    Looks like you lost all your balls. I can do this a hundred times.
    24:26
    I can just feel it. Okay, moving on. Bingo. Another jackpot.
    24:57
    Incredible. I'll go for the big one. I stuck a screw in there and then poured some plastic in there. So then it hardened with the screw and I just twisted it into there.
    25:21
    My very first one. My first scepter I've ever made. Really good. Your first one. I was thinking about doing a rainbow of colors.
    25:31
    What, ink? I've been told I'm talented. Oh, geez. It's a lot in here, isn't it? This is when you use it. This is my first time.
    25:50
    How is this after a very good year? God, you would never know. This is the first time these two ever met, and it's pretty amazing how the chemistry starts right off with them.
    26:14
    So you're going to play as teams. Press the left button to be on my team. Let's do that one more time.
    26:21
    So you're going to play as teams. press the left flipper to be on my team no press the right flipper to be on my team left right left right hamburgers take one okay so that was again that was just that was very again they did that with four characters and that was just a little snippet of spots. I like the, you know, you've lost all your balls one was her favorite, I think, too.
    27:07
    All right, so on to something else. And I just discovered, anyone know the TV show Bluey? Anyone? Yeah, okay, not too many, but okay.
    27:19
    It's from Australia and it's a cartoon show and it's these family of dogs and it actually is a really good show. I know like adults that don't have kids that watch it and like it. And I like to talk about who does the voices with my grandkids about like for Elsa and Frozen and like she loves Idina Menzel now and she likes whatever. So I'm looking for the voices for Bluey and I ran across the guy that does the father and then I clicked on something about a band that he was in in the 90s and then I kind of got a surprise. So let's see if this works.
    28:02
    My name's Dave McCormack and I play the part of the best character on the show, Bandit Healer. Let's do this! I'm not taking advice from a cartoon dog.
    28:17
    Yeah, I'm pretty similar to the dad, except maybe I don't look quite the same. When the show started, I had two daughters about the same age as Bingo and Bluey. So what was happening in the scripts is pretty much what's happening in my life. So I didn't really have to dig too deep. I'd be reading the script, we'd have a laugh, and I'd think, that exactly happened to me today. using the kids as musical instruments and playing keepy-uppy with the balloon so much so that my wife Lucy said to me are you giving them story ideas? I said no, it's hard to believe but I'm not.
    28:59
    Anyone who's seen the show knows this is me. Some people when they go oh you're a bandit healing, can you do the voice? And I go hey how you doing? Oh my God, he's doing the voice. How do you do it? I said, what do you mean? He's still doing the voice. This is amazing. I'm going to talk to my kid. Hey, kid.
    29:22
    You've eaten band and he's inside you. The band was custard. Custard now, back in our studios to play once again a new song off their forthcoming album, We Have the Technology, out around September. Please make the most welcome now is Pimbal-Less! And three, three, four. Pimbal-Less, three, four.
    29:56
    Pimbal-Less is shy, dog. With Nance Cormorant. Reconditioning pitfalls. He comes around again. Just for one year. So now, something different. and I played this before, you may have seen it, but with the Roger Sharp movie coming, we're going to see it tonight,
    31:00
    they really handled that same subject on a show called Drunk History. And at first I said, what? I had never heard of it. But it actually is funny, and Roger says they got it completely right. and there's one time where you'll see where the guy says midst in the midst of something and he can't pronounce it because he's very drunk it's Roger's favorite part also just so you know so let's see that
    31:42
    so here's a quick clip that I have shown many times before, but it's election time and we're all talking about election. So I thought we'd put this in. This is amazing. It's working. One of these two men will soon call this White House home. But to get there, they had to roll through some very tough issues Now it all comes down to election night And for an election this historic Only ABC News Taking over Times Square New York and turning the crossroads of the world into your super election headquarters for a live global viewing event Charlie Gibson, Diane Sawyer, George Stephanopoulos, ABC Election Night, tonight.
    32:29
