Pinball machines (movie, the simpsons, Kiss, movie theater)

[skel1977]

I thought Id just say i love them. Even though there arent many arcade places around, when you do find one..the pinball machines they have are normally crap.

I thought about buying one for my basement, AKA mancave but the woman wouldnt let me because of the price of a new pinball machine was pretty high.

My favorite was

A friend of mine had four pinball machines in his basement until about a year ago when he got rid of three of them to make room for his new kid's play area. He had:

The Simpsons
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom
Terminator 2
and I can't remember the other one

He still has Terminator 2. I think he paid between 4-6 thousand dollars for each one.

I remember the good old days, late 70's early 80's. That's all we did all day long as pre-teens.

Some good old machines:
Paragon
Future Spa
Six-Million Dollar Man
Mata Hari
8-Ball
Playboy
KISS
and my fav Evel Knieval

I was always fascinated by pachinko games. We had one in a local movie theater back in the 1970s and I was pretty good at it. One time I had to leave multiple extra balls after playing it for almost half an hour because the movie had started.
If I ever have a game room/den/bar a pachinko game is going on the wall.
