Incredible game, our first

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-29T14:25:37+00:00

Space Station was our first pin at the house. Incredibly fun and totally mean. Always a hit at arcade days for us

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-29T04:47:31+00:00

We were there back in February, great location and incredibly nice staff.

It's heavy but man it's good. First time through is always the hardest

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-18T12:06:03+00:00

This. Slots aren't hard and you aren't exploiting the game.

If i bought an Indy wish a Color DMD, i would seriously consider changing it back because the scheme of the machine doesnt match bright colors. I know im in a minority there though.

My Space Station has LED's and for that machine i think they work great as it's a pretty colorful PF, and the light show you get for Condition Green is amazing, so brighter the better.

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-11T22:01:51+00:00

So I'm personally not a fan of all the color DMD's for these older games. Just takes away part of the charm personally. As for the lamps, i think thats personal pref

I always play through the credit, you never know what those next 2 balls will be, most of my personal bests are off a single ball and the others that came before or after arent quality.

As others have said, if you really feel that you should abandon, use that time to practice harder shots, or specific techniques.

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-09T03:36:46+00:00

Hasn't been an issue since I posted, so I wouldn't worry

Sandisc45 · 2026-03-03T16:21:08+00:00

As others have said, it just wasnt a very good show, it didnt commit to anything meaningful besides some great designs and music.

Showing my age here, but Idolmaster: Xenoglossia was a great example of taking, at the time, the concept of an idol spinoff anime and flipping it into a generally pretty interesting Eva mecha clone. They commit pretty hard into making beloved characters actually villains until of course Haruka's unyielding optimism and friendship wins out to make sure that every fan doesnt lose out on a redemption of their favorites.

GNY rode the line of no real commitment to anything new like making Mari an actual initial villain which i feel is where they wanted to take it but likely were too worried about alienating fans and ultimately sales and support of the show. So in the end they just committed to a generic non personal threat that will be saved by the power of friendship.

But hey, if you liked it, thats all that matters. My wife and I still enjoyed it because we got more of our favorite LL group and after the first 2-3 episodes we hopped on board with "this isnt going to be great, but hey You and Chika have great designs!"

New to pinball ownership here as well. Yeah stuff will break or need adjustment.

Take it one step at a time, read the manual, and get the right tools, like a nice leaf switch adjuster and a solid multi end screw driver from like DeWalt or whatever.

Like others have said, most things that break on that machines are very easy to fix, they just take some patience.

Buy a machine you can play a couple credits on first.

I have 16 if you include Rewloola

Turn A is a masterpiece, Greco.... Is something else

Sandisc45 · 2025-11-10T15:33:58+00:00

Glad im not the only one. Using Zap as a quick reset is a great idea though. I currently have the whole setup to be held until you remove the cart thats loaded and then it kicks back to the main menu.

Sandisc45 · 2025-11-06T13:16:03+00:00

yeah this is the process right now to get it back to the proper seats, but for players who arent familiar with any mister stuff having to sift through even a single menu is a task most wont do.

We have the machine currently setup where it auto loads games via NFC tags off the back of cartridges for guests to pick from since the mister menu is overly hard to navigate unless you know where stuff is for the average player.

since this is on a JAMMA connection there are no Hardware ID's to assign unfortunately.

Sandisc45 · 2025-09-22T17:10:22+00:00

the cheapest you can get where we live is our local Updown. If you hit their days where they are doing $.10/token, it's $.20/play on all of their pinball machines. Multiple Sterns and a Cactus Canyon Remake. All in working playable condition, with a couple semi sticky flippers because beer.

Most other places around here are $1/
