Crow Pinball – Third video in a monthly video series looking back at the things that I’ve done or seen in the last month. This video contains a few new upgrades for the series as well as a pretty lengthy pickups portion as, well, it was Christmas and everything.
Paul Quinn (aka DrunkenMasterPaul) visited PuckBrandedGaming and I a few weeks ago and we took him to the Roanoke, VA Pinball Museum and StarCade. He had a blast and since it was the first time for all three of us, we had even more fun than we expected thanks to the awesome people there and all the machines available for play!
We each purchased the “Double Play” pack which (at the time of recording) was $17.50 per person and covered both the Pinball Museum and the StarCade (which are treated as separate entities).
Both areas are located in the “Center in the Square” building located in downtown Roanoke, VA.
For the uninformed, The Pinball Arcade will be removing all Bally/Williams tables from purchase after June 30th, 2018. However, if you’ve purchased those tables before that date, you’ll be able to keep playing them and even redownloaded them on the platforms you’ve purchased them on.
I’ve been getting quite a few requests on recommendations for which tables people should get, but that’s a difficult thing for me to do. I wasn’t planning on doing a video like this, but I figured I would try and nail down a list of 10 recommended tables for those wondering what to purchase before they are gone.
Chuck Van Pelt of the Portland Retro Gaming Expo shows us what a new Pinball machine collector needs to know to get started collecting! Plus he talks about some of the more fun or collectable games, where to look for problems with machines and websites and books for reference.
