The Pinball Podcast Episode 18 – An End to the Madness

Pinball March Madness is just about over and now Jeff can finally get some rest. Thank you everyone for participating!

CORRECTION:  On the show, I incorrectly recommended using an emory board to clean contacts.  Joe Zenkus caught the mistake though and said not to use it!  He’s right!  Use FLEXSTONE.  I swear I use flexstone, and just called it the wrong thing because I have a limited vocabulary.  I swear. *cough*  400 grit sandpaper is also acceptable. – Don

MORE CORRECTIONS: 

  • Mike Goss pointed out that Checkpoint was the first game that allowed you to select your music.  We weren’t disputing this, but it may have come out that way.
  • Rob C felt that we were overlooking the Stern Premium model.  We will probably talk about this again, but we were more going to the point of ditching the Pro model, keeping the Premium and LE.
  • Zaccaria made a railroad themed game called ‘Locomotion’, not ‘Locomotive’.
  • Featured Machine: Whitewater
  • Top Five: Favorite Mindless Fun Pins
  • Virtual Pinball: Whitewater and Space Shuttle join Cactus Canyon and Central Park on The Pinball Arcade.  Zaccaria Pinball hits iOS.
