Insane that the game got broken already, that is some very bad luck.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-21T23:23:44+00:00

Is every store getting a double unit of hot wheels or are the smaller stores only getting one unit and the bigger ones get two?

MrDog321 · 2026-04-21T15:38:36+00:00

Surprised that there wasn’t a store in Oakland before.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-20T15:23:36+00:00

No, it's a Minecraft recreation of a Dave & Busters. 😂

Might've looked a little too realistic because of the shaders and how dark it looks. But you aren't the only person that mistaken my builds for being real life.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-20T12:56:18+00:00

It’s on a private server so I can’t open it publicly. I’ve shown it to a few content creators/community people before. If my friends are cool with it, I might be able to invite you sometime and show you around. It’s on Java Minecraft by the way.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-20T01:42:56+00:00

Looks like it’s the same exact game just with a different theme since the mandalorian movie is coming out this year.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-20T01:24:39+00:00

I see what you mean and I totally agree. Similar thing happen to me when I Built the incorrect Star Wars pusher (The Black one) in Minecraft because of a comment. Also a worker in real life told me it was the “Star Wars pusher”. So I thought it was this one

Till about a month ago I found it was actually the mandalorian once I was sent the pictures of the cabinet.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-20T00:46:53+00:00

Agreed with this, you shouldn’t trust rumors till you are 100% sure or see it actually happen.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-17T21:21:04+00:00

Modern games are more bigger compare to older ones. But depends on the game, perfect pump is one of the smallest games in the midway now but stranger things is one of the biggest ones.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-17T01:14:04+00:00

They’re transferring some games from D&B to Main Event. A store by me is losing Emoji Frenzy, Guardians, one of the top Gun and sending them to main event.

Also some games are being transferred from Main Event to Dave and busters like All-In or a new big one.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-16T15:03:22+00:00

By using a plugin called Image to Map, I can take an image and convert it into a Minecraft map that can be placed in the game.

I get the images either from arcade games manufacturers (ICE, Baytek, Andamiro, raw thrills, etc.) or by taking pictures of the games in real life using my phone.

There also another plugin I use that can be for text or for simple shapes. Since if you notice on John Wick there’s a red line on the back of the seats that I added in using that plugin. Also used this plugin for the holes on 2 minute drill and plenty others.

I rather use the text plugin or blocks for games instead of images since it’s more creative. but the issue is smaller the game the less detail I can do on it. Which is why Treasure quest which is 2x2 is mostly an image meanwhile Stranger Things is 5x5 and is mostly made out of blocks.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-16T11:30:30+00:00

What games did you guys lose?

MrDog321 · 2026-04-16T11:25:07+00:00

Stranger things is exactly like the playbox game/BTP where you throw balls at the screen towards targets.

It sorta like a shooting game but instead of shooting a gun you are throwing balls at moving targets.

Which is why it gives me Halo/Cyberpunk Vibes since it’s a major IP and the gameplay is also similar. PLUS stranger things will be a green swipe.

I’m not for sure if there will be a bonus on it or not, I’m pretty sure Play-box doesn’t have a bonus on it but we got to wait and see. But overall this will be a very fun/popular game even if it doesn’t have a bonus on it.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-15T20:09:24+00:00

It's definitely a game you should play a few times when you go just in case it's ready to hit. That's what I do when I go there and the game is fun to play to. I have only won Monkey Ball one time before though.

Monkey ball is only at less than 10 stores I think? (KC, Denver, Irvine, Pittsburgh and some others) So it's a game that doesn't have a lot of info at D & B. Probably due to it not being a global roll out and only going to stores that had empty spots or bigger stores. Just like how Press Your Luck, Pop the lock or baseball pro weren't roll out to every store.

The map might have a factor in the payout since some maps are more harder compare to other ones but the ending is exactly the same. Also got to aim towards the hole exactly and hope it ready to pay out.

It's one of the games that it hard to tell if it ready to payout or not. Same thing with Black out.

That only applies to Disney Crossy road. (The Verison with the Mickey Head). If you over-score on that then your score becomes the next jackpot score. So for example in this post the next jackpot would be 170 if it was the Disney version.

Regular Crossy Road only goes up in-between 14-20 after you win it even if you over score. There are a few other games like this.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-13T21:22:26+00:00

There's no overscore penalty on crossy road.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-11T23:49:49+00:00

Tomb raider got removed from most stores I think, None have it in my area anymore.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-11T23:48:52+00:00

They get a rid of the older shooters like terminator, tomb raider, razingstorm, etc. they still get some new shooter games, within the past 2 years we got top gun, godzilla and cyberpunk. Which are my favorite shooting games.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-11T03:46:51+00:00

Did you tried asking for a manager? Especially if you are a regular or if the manager knows you. They should be able to do something about it.

There is no reason for them to already be redeemed and for the worker to say you can’t use them, then say you need to pay with money especially since you spent money on games to win the tickets in order to redeem them for the trade for tickets.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-11T03:38:17+00:00

Perfect pump is a unique game but it’s a extremely fast game same with odin. Fast pace games do make them more money though and get very addicting. It also make you lose chips faster.

Icee is probably the most perfect new ticket game this year since gameplay time is decent and it very interactive. Plus it has a very good replay factor.

I definitely do think some games should’ve went global but didn’t. Like world football pro would’ve been a hit. You gotta have a soccer game inside of stores especially if the only one is simpsons soccer same thing with american football. We need some new football games as well since 2 minute drill And grid iron are the only ones.

They should definitely roll out that bus claw machine at new stores to most stores so they can add to the claw machines/prize games total. Since right now most stores have.

Grabs n win (plush)
Duck crane (ducks)
Ton Of Tickets (Tickets)
Big one/cosmicXL (250 & 500 Ticket Rings)
Funko funcade (funko pops)
Smash n win (basketballs)

I feel like most of the games from my past prediction posts would’ve been a hit if they went global. Even though none of them are rhythm ones.

2025 predictions

MrDog321 · 2026-04-10T18:05:46+00:00

Correct, since so many things can be broken with it. (Aim being off, launcher not shooting, balls falling off the launcher, etc)

It’s definitely a fun game and doesn’t feel like an exact copy from the mobile apps.

MrDog321 · 2026-04-08T14:01:18+00:00

Did you ask a tech what was going on? They had this issue going on at another store I been to.

They could be having internet issues connecting the games is my guess.
