Totally random thread but this came to me earlier while playing Big Bang Bar on an emulator (living the dream as always!) did any of them make it over to the UK? Does anyone here own one? And if anyone does own it do you fancy inviting me over?
Dave Bishop used to own one I believe but I think it headed over the water
Hi Mark,I'm sure many people with amazing collections like to keep quiet and "out of the spotlight" but it sure would be good to see some photos of them.
Next time you are round dropping off a mint restore Chris, you should grab a few cheeky photos
I always enjoy seeing Lee Rileys pics on Instagram
Hi JohnHi Mark,
I played a BBB that a very good friend bought when they did those 100 odd remakes. I seem to recall they were around £5k at the time and i thought he was paying an awful lot of money for it. Well i guess i was wrong !
Anyway i liked the game but NO WAY would i even consider paying what gets asked for them these days. Not that i could afford such extravagant prices anyway ! At the end of the day i think it`s a real shame more people didn`t get to play it. With the way prices have gone in recent years that applies to more and more pinballs and in my opinion is not a good thing.
Cheers,
John.
For me the main draw of it is the theme and the gorgeous UV-esque artwork. I find the tube dancers sexual moaning really annoying and a bit crass but the overall sound and artwork package is beautiful. It's definitely a shame Capcom closed their pinball division, they had some great concepts and their Pinball Magic is one of my favourite machines of all timeHi John
At least you can say you have played on one. I'm sure that guy will be laughing if he sold it today.
I must admit to not seeing the greatest of it. From what I have watched on YouTube, it seems to be just a typical 90's pin. Nothing ground breaking or that.
It is a real shame about Capcom as I think they could of put out some really good pins based of some video game licences.
Agree. It's just another middling 9Os title, elevated to trophy status in collector circles.Its not that great a game in my view. I played one in the US a few times. People paying more than 10K for it are total nutters. Its more like a 4K game. Amazing what legend can do to the value of something.
