@BabyWetsAllNight Ha ha. I NEVER heard that until I started doing online videos. Now, I get it ALL the time. Honestly, I think it's pretty awesome....loved that movie (and would have LOVED being that role! Ha ha!) Thanks for watching.
Excellent video. Very in depth and entertaining. I just picked this game up a couple of days ago after not playing it for over 25 years, and you're right, its just as fun now as it was then. I'm subscribing to your video's. They're excellent. :)
Ha ha, 'ball control'. You hit the the nail right on the head with this one. Excellent controls, cool design, and I still love playing this game too after all these years.
best pinball video game I have ever played. Devil's Crush was very good too, but I think the bonus stages in this one (something that couldn't be done in real pinball like this) are better.
I haven't played Alien Crush Returns yet. I'll have to give it a shot. Any good? LOVE Devil's Crush, though. Looking forward to pulling that out for a review in the future!
Just downloaded this game on the PS3.. you're right, it's addicting. This is my kinda pinball game. And, on the PS3, there's a save feature! I'm going to see if I can't see the end screen. I'm using the save feature to basically cheat, so I never die (just load last save after dying). If there is one I'll take a crappy iPhone video of it. As for simulating pinball on the small screen, check out Zen Pinball. It's pretty damn close.
I highly recommend you go try "Flipnic" on the PS2, one of my alltime fave pinball games. Also the one on XBLA is awesome too. But my fave as a kid was Pinball Fantasies and Pinball Illusions on the Amiga.
Looking forward to seeing the Devil Crash review! Alien Crush was a great game but Devil Crash was one of my fav pinball games not just on the PC Engine but on any other system!
I'm a sucker for pinball... But I can never find any pinball machines anymore. But the way you described this simulation of a pinball game, has convinced me. After all, you are the pinball champ (and I believe you. The other guy probably cheated).
I try to be "accurate" and "true" and not let my nostalgic / personal feelings get in the way . You know? But, in the end, this is a TurboGrafx review show and I find myself being bias toward the games. So, most of them will get at least an average rating or above, because I feel like they deserve it (where others would be more critical as they would compare it to other systems and games). I try to be detailed in the review so others can form their own opinion if they don't agree with mine.
@TheNintendo101 Well....as of now yeah (that and the pinball-side of the channel). When I finish the series in a few years, maybe I'll sneak off into another territory (though I did do a Super Mario Galaxy review once, somewhere in my uploads). :)
Great review! I was wondering what your thoughts would be on the Crush/Cruise games. I'm currently waiting to receive Devil's Crush in the mail. Looking forward to finally trying pinball on the TG.
Oh yeah! Definitely an awesome "translation" of the regular Pinbot full-size machine. I had that and High Speed. I thought they did a good job with both. :)
I'm not really sure. I know with Devil's Crush......you actually "destroy" the table at the end (something I'll NEVER be able to do, but you can enter a password to maximize the score and see the ending). WIth AC, I'm not really sure.
I just bought this yesterday off of PSN for my PSP. Let me tell you: Playing this and Bonk's Adventure on a portable is pretty enticing. I also heard you need to score 999,999,900 points to see the ending. There's only one thing to make that manageable: Hello save feature! Still a cool game!
@TheBigMan0706 Sigh....I hate this kind of forum. You never can tell the tone-of-voice in someone's message. You know? I was actually trying to be "funny" reacting to your "joke". LOL! :) Oh well, I give up. Ha ha. Have a great one (and yes, I am a sore loser.....dammit!!!.......)!

Ha! Now, that would be pretty awesome. I'll send a letter to Stern Pinball about it.....hee hee! :)
Thanks for watching!

hepwo91222 have you ever played jaki crush on Super Famicom?
You got it. Thanks for watching!
@RossEStern If you do, let me know what you think. Hope you like it. :)
ha ha. Hey, Thanks for watching.
@Harusama Hey, me too! :)
Thanks for watching!
Another perfect review! Still play this on Virtual Console. Just purchased a copy online :)!
Yeah, totally! They definitely are. Thanks for watching.
I remember being a kid and my family and I would spend hours playing this game.
Now, this is a game I got just months after I got the TG16 console.
The best pinball/video game for me was Pinbot for the Nes,it was a fun game!
I haven't played Alien Crush Returns yet. I'll have to give it a shot. Any good?
LOVE Devil's Crush, though. Looking forward to pulling that out for a review in the future!
I'll check it out! Thanks for watching.

Have you heard about Alien Crush Returns on the Wii?
It is coming. And, I have to agree with you. As far as pinball on a home-system.....DC is one of my definite favs!
Not having a save feature could actually end up being a major problem if you're having a super long game and you can't finish it all at one time.
I'm a sucker for pinball... But I can never find any pinball machines anymore. But the way you described this simulation of a pinball game, has convinced me. After all, you are the pinball champ (and I believe you. The other guy probably cheated).
@SoulWarrior265 Yeah, I'll never see the ending of this one. But, it's okay...ha ha. I can submit to that. :)
Thanks for watching!!!!
One of my favorite turbografx-16 games
: ]
I still have this great game.
I played and played for hours then just gave up. Does it stop at a top score?
A great review from someone who KNOWS pinball!
Great review! wow, I diidn't know there was that much you could possibly say about a pinball game, haha! You keep surprising me! Fantastic!
@BalooRJ That's great you won a TurboGrafx. Congrats! Great job!
One of my favorite games on the TG16

@Corad4 Yes, I like Zen Pinball. It's quite good. The Williams Pinball collection is also a good representation of the real thing, surprisingly. :)
Alien Crush is so much fun!
Great review! I was wondering what your thoughts would be on the Crush/Cruise games. I'm currently waiting to receive Devil's Crush in the mail. Looking forward to finally trying pinball on the TG.
Oh yeah! Definitely an awesome "translation" of the regular Pinbot full-size machine. I had that and High Speed. I thought they did a good job with both. :)
Great review once again! I hope to see a review of Devil's Crush or Time Cruise II(another pinball game)maybe in the future.
A game which I think I somewhat similar to this us mile high pinball for n gage though that came out in 2005
Woo! Great. I hope you like it.
holy hell! i gotta download this right away!
Oh and another kickass review Chris!
Never played those two. I'll definitely check them out! Thanks!
And yes, DC is just the best!
@BalooRJ ha ha! Did they toss in a bunch of sports games? Lol!
4:14 LOL.
Great, thanks! It still holds up pretty well today, especially once you start formulating a strategy to try and keep the game "going." You know?
@Bylga Totally agree! :0
looks like a good game i should get it
hehehe... Ball Control...
Great Review!
I'm not really sure. I know with Devil's Crush......you actually "destroy" the table at the end (something I'll NEVER be able to do, but you can enter a password to maximize the score and see the ending). WIth AC, I'm not really sure.
@TheBigMan0706 Take it easy TheBigMan. It's called a joke. :)
Hope you're having a great New Year so far. Take care.
LOL! There you go. I SO would have! :)
Alien crush is a good video pinball game for me to play. 😀👍🎮👽
@spida1a great game!

@spida1a i was making a joke too
"Yea it's 2nd place, but the other guy cheated.." Are you sure you're not a poor sport?
@TheBigMan0706 Sigh....I hate this kind of forum. You never can tell the tone-of-voice in someone's message. You know? I was actually trying to be "funny" reacting to your "joke". LOL! :)
Oh well, I give up. Ha ha. Have a great one (and yes, I am a sore loser.....dammit!!!.......)!
