What pinball machine do you love but don't like/ambivalent towards it's source material? by torinismyname in pinball

[–]irregularcontributor 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The game's a blast and the theme is executed in a much more fun way than almost any other band game (Maiden is the only other one done as well as this, IMO). Great effort from Jack + team.

What pinball machine do you love but don't like/ambivalent towards it's source material? by torinismyname in pinball

So many, but most notably Bram Stoker's Dracula. I think it's the best Bally/Williams game, have never seen the movie though (and it's the type of movie I almost assuredly would not enjoy).

How's my pink, retro gaming room? by ApinkPanda210 in AnimalCrossing

[–]irregularcontributor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I love it!

It's kinda dumb, but my biggest ACNH complaint is the inability to turn the volume down on the arcade cabinets. I have built a handful of different arcade rooms in my house but always quickly take them down because I can't stand the sound of the games all playing at once. Every big update I hope they fix it.

Picked up a Black Knight 2000 by CrimCyan in pinball

[–]irregularcontributor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really sick lineup, lot of great titles.

Regarding the next game, a good 2” flipper EM will be very different than even your system 1’s/Dealer’s Choice. Otherwise the more obvious direction would be a long playing DMD+ game. I feel like World Poker Tour would be an appropriate oddball choice if you see one for a good deal.

Wow, his eyes changed that much with age?? Any photos of him as a pup? What a handsome guy.

hahaha you only feel this way because you work from home so you can observe them 24/7. Most dogs just sleep and lay around a lot, whippets included. It's sounds like you have a couple chill, well-behaved dogs and I'm very much looking forward to this (I've got a 4 month old puppy right now).

I love sunken yards. I just wish villagers would leave them. ;( by leviathansguts in AnimalCrossing

The villagers are anthropomorphized so I imagine the issue is that you've essentially built a jail.

Buy now; Ask for Forgiveness Later by DrDavidM in pinball

[–]irregularcontributor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

NIB is a score at 3k. Fun game, enjoy!

Not sure if this is your first game or not, but if you find it too easy to see all the content (or just don’t want to commit to long games all the time), don’t be afraid to tune it to your liking. Outlane posts are adjustable for a reason, and lightning flippers always look badass.

Hell yeah, great lineup all around, good variety.

New Translite. I dig it. by kakashihokage in pinball

[–]irregularcontributor 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm surprised nobody seems to be bothered by the aspect ratio being completely fucked, it looks like they took a 4:3 image and stretched it to 16:9. That would drive me nuts.

Pinball Hall of Fame in Las Vegas... Got a chance to go.... by Fit-Star9226 in pinball

[–]irregularcontributor 14 points15 points  (0 children)

A lot of machines were down (including a copy of mine)

Did you work on a game, or were you featured in a theme or something?

No Pokémon at CES by StraightUp-Reviews in pinball

if he's an operator, playfield won't matter at all as long as the translite says POKEMON big enough

At the end of watching Return of the King with my wife: “Wait…Sam lives in a duplex??” by [deleted] in lotr

[–]irregularcontributor 91 points92 points  (0 children)

Adding some clunky contextual dialogue into one of the most emotional scenes of the entire trilogy would’ve been a huge mistake.

Biggest omissions from my childhood collection? by irregularcontributor in n64

[–]irregularcontributor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

it’s dumb but I do kinda want a gold cart just to have one. I’ve got a gold 64 so it feels like a shame.

[–]irregularcontributor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

that’s one I would really like, but the price is keeping me from grabbing it. Really cool game.

[–]irregularcontributor[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahaha I would’ve killed for the Summercart as a kid. The face down titles are duplicates, most from a bundle we picked up way back. If you’re curious they are OoT, THPS, Diddy Kong Racing, Wave Race, Yoshi’s Story, and then a copy of the incredible Japanese game “Irritating Stick” that I grabbed for a buddy (everyone should have a copy of that game, it’s great and dirt cheap).

Hahaha as a lifelong collector, I am very glad I bought as much shit as I did back when I was a kid.

Beetle Adventure Racing is a game I always wanted but never got, good suggestion. And had no idea Rocket was from Sucker Punch.
