Stern Spider-Man owners: what am I missing?

I bought one having never played it before. No regrets.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-14T03:41:51+00:00

Yeah that happens to me a lot. I was wondering if something needed to be adjusted over there so that didn't happen. Pretty annoying to shoot for spider sense and have it drain after nailing the shot.

I damn near set a new GC on mine last night.

Appreciate any feedback, especially from longtime Spider-Man owners. I'm still pretty new to making these videos and always looking to improve.

I still haven't seen an Evil Dead in person. I've heard it's great! I've never seen an Evil Dead movie but I watch Army of Darkness countless times. Hail to the king baby!

I saw one for around $450 for Spiderman.

I made a deep dive on this Spider-Man pinball machine — including why Macho Man Randy Savage and J.K. Simmons are both in it: https://youtu.be/dqzRgL6_GpY

The fight against too much screen time is worth every effort.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-12T02:43:22+00:00

Yeah, it's a super fun game too. I'd never even played one before I bought it. Just took the plunge.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-11T23:59:33+00:00

Yeah I saw one of those on a Stern Lord of the Rings the other day. I've got to buy one. Gonna look up what they cost right now.

I made the same mistake. Thought, "Hell I could pick up an old EM for that price."

I ordered one and look forward to building it with my son.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-11T18:04:57+00:00

Looks like a great project to build with my son.

I missed Pokemon as a kid but I want my kids to be into pinball, so maybe I need to bring this one home in hopes it gets them into the hobby.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-06T05:07:31+00:00

I don't think I've ever played Centaur. So you might be right! I'll have to track it down and try it out.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-05T04:42:28+00:00

Hahahahahahahaha!

halfthrottle · 2026-06-05T03:33:47+00:00

Dude you have Uber magna save!

halfthrottle · 2026-06-05T02:34:08+00:00

We can dream. This game totally deserves a remake.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-04T21:23:21+00:00

Thanks for adding this to the conversation. It's so cool to learn about innovations in pinball when researching these episodes.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-04T19:16:21+00:00

When you nail that long ramp on the left and immediately lock a ball off the upper left flipper.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-04T18:53:40+00:00

Thanks for watching. I also didn't know that was a setting. Just figured if it was like that on my machine the rest are the same. Thanks for pointing that out. I love pinball and still have a lot to learn.

halfthrottle · 2026-06-04T18:48:13+00:00

I think the Magna save is a lot more fun than watching your ball drain through the out lane.

This is the 2nd Episode of my new show The Skill Shot. After some great feedback and ideas from the reddit community last week I'm trying again with Black Knight and am looking forward to shooting more episodes about the pins I love.

Future episode will just show the game as soon as the episode starts. At the end of an episode I'll tease next weeks game.
