I worked at Capcom and was on this team. My name is in the credits between Ritchie and Python in the special thanks. Something not many people know is Stan drew the characters you see based on real people in the office. The tube lady was the front receptionist, and the large woman's head the n front corner the f backglass was Allison S. The HR manager, etc. I had a chance to buy one of the lab prototypes for 4998$ but of course, that was not possible for me at the time. Looking back, what a loss. It's really a shame that corporate closed down this pinball division. They had such amazing talent and would have done amazing things well never see :(
Another fun and informative video Trekkers! I played a BBB at a place called Flippers in a Sunoco station in North Carolina a couple years ago. The thing I remember most was the electric hum from the old flipper coils. Does this one you played a Troy's have that hum you can feel in the buttons?
Thank you for the kind words. I love the phrase Trekkers! I hope you don't mind if we use that in the future. I do not recall any hum in the flippers, but I was so giddy it could of been stabbing me in the gut and I would of just blindly played on. I was listening to a recent episode of Silverball Chronicles and they reported that Capcom flippers were the strongest ever, so I wonder if that was related to the hum.
Editors note. While trying to catch up on my podcasts, I listened yesterday to the Silverball Chronicle's episode regarding Capcom. In their episode they discussed our artist, Stan Fukuoka. He was responsible for more games than just Big Bang Bar. Now I need to find out why someone remade his game Kingpin and not this one. Come on someone redo this game!
@@kman190 according to the rumor mill we may all get a chance. It may need to be imported from overseas, and maybe 2030 something, but as Craig Bobby would say we shall have to wait and see.
That rumor has been going on for years. I thought it would be CGC. Whoever finally remakes this game will be getting a license to print money. It will sell out for sure.

I love this! Seems to me we need to find a Capcom game, play a little pinball together, and swap a whole bunch of stories.
So why do you think nobody has remade this one yet?
@@cyrusoverland8461 it's a good question. @JackpotMike77 any insights?
Pinball Magic 🎩 is the only good Capcom
@catsaretasty I disagree, though Airborn is the game that lost so much money and caused Capcom hq to close shop.
Played this one a few times and have enjoyed it everytime I have played it ..would love to get some alone time with it! 😅😂
Troy from Tilt was needing to get out of the building while I was filming this. I also would welcome much more "alone time".
Great Video. Am I in the wrong place to ask about a game called " TARG " ?
Thank you. The only TARG I have heard of is the House of TARG in Canada. I don't know if that is what you are looking for

There's something amazingly soothing about the pacing and tone of your videos. Very enjoyable and informative to watch:)
Wow thank you LegoYodaX. You made my week!
Nice one man, how great is it? Worthy of one of the greatest? I'd love to have a game on it.
It is a great game. If we could ignore the price, this would absolutely be one of my favorites.

I would 100% love to order one!

Isn't there a rumor that "some pinball company" is working on a remake of this?
That would be smart.
That rumor has been going on for years. I thought it would be CGC. Whoever finally remakes this game will be getting a license to print money. It will sell out for sure.
@@cyrusoverland8461 I am not sure I will still be alive if its CGC...lol
@@TiltTrek I know. I waited forever for my MMr.
@@cyrusoverland8461 At least then we know the quality will be good.
