*Wisconsin Pinball

I am in the process of trying to get my Alien Poker ready for MGC. Previously it was having issues with the board not booting (GI comes on, but it doesn't go into attract mode and the diagnostic LEDs on the board come on solid signifying that the board did not boot properly). I moved the machine to ...

Congratulations Eric! It's nice to see that a lot of the new pinball designers are from WI.

I got into pinball in 2014 after hearing on a retro gaming podcast about how they just play pinball at retro gaming conventions. Soon after that I found Madison Pinball and saw that they had just put in their first machines at Schwoegler's, which was convenient for me since it is only a few minutes ...

Sorry no help with finding one, but that statement made me think of this classic Seinfeld episode.

Good luck.

Congrats on the new rig Noah! I know how much you've been looking forward to it! Now learn the rules so you can teach me. Thank Ken. I am looking forward to learning this game too! the welds are pretty strong. you can put a good amount of pressure on them. one thing to check first though is to see ...

Here is a picture.

Thanks a lot, Chris. I'll be sure to call you first when I am ready to buy a new Stern or JJP machine. Speaking of which, let me know if you hear of Stern releasing an R2-D2 LE for their upcoming Star Wars machine. My wife told me that we may have to buy that if it comes out. :D The only issue I hav...

Thanks Maya. Were these the inserts for the beast popups? If so, I believe my game came with them already installed. Thanks for the offer though.

Gotta get the basement finished first; don't have the room for any more right now. Hopefully that should be done by the end of the year. I think this game will keep me busy for a while. Besides, there is plenty of great location pinball to play in town.

I normally have the curtains closed in that room, but that's a good idea for when I do have light coming in. As far as the game, I really like it. The latest code is a big update from what I have played before. Still need to learn the rules. Already did a couple tweaks. The ring button wasn't quite ...

Thank you. I managed to get it all set up with the help of my wife and four friends. I learned that if you are going to use the $30 handtruck that you bought at Menard's a year ago, you should make sure that the tires are filled before putting 350lbs on it. We managed to get it up onto my porch with...

My Hobbit as delivered today. Yay!!! I did notice that the box was caved in a little near the bottom on one side. The delivery guy from R&L was very helpful in helping me lay the machine down so I could open the bottom and check for any damage. The caved in part was the empty space below the hea...

Thanks Mike. I see that Target sells Meguier's wax, so I'll pick some up. As far as getting the box off the pallet, do you just slide the box partially off and then tip it onto the handtruck? Just trying to figure out how to do that.

After waiting many moons, my Hobbit pinball machine is finally getting delivered tomorrow. This is my first machine, so I have a couple questions. 1. From what I have seen from unboxing videos online, it looks like it comes in a box strapped to a pallet. Should I take the box off the pallet before m...

I have had my room booked since they went up. Very much looking forward to MGC! My wife and I had a great time last year. Hopefully things work out so that we can bring a couple games and experience the Saturday night party that I have heard so much about.
