BTW,Adams Family is probably my all-time favorite,I had high score on it at an old pizza place here in St Joe and racked up a ton of free games on that machine.

I liked The Creature from the Black Lagoon when I was a kid. Think I played it at a Godfathers Pizza.

they are more reliable but fall short of bulletproof. I really liked attack from mars. the sequel to that table was Revenge from Mars. RfM utlized pepper's ghost to project a hologram over the playfield.

all my favorite tables were from Williams electronics.
-Firepower
-Wizard
-Revenge from Mars
-Gorgar
-Defender

if you want to play some pinball on a tiny budget... I'd recommend buying a copy of Williams pinball hall of fame for ps3 or xbox360.

there are a couple of virtual pinball games on PC too.

the pinball arcade has tables from 5 former manufacturers.
Zaccaria pinball has 30 tables from that Italian manufacturer
------------------------------------------------------------------------

use the database at http://www.aurcade.com to find arcades and specific games.

there are 43 Attack from mars tables in the lower 48 states. there are 3 AfM remakes. none of them are in CA though.

there are 140+ arcades in CA. several are in SF

Great information, thanks. I saw the Attack From Mars SE which looked awesome but 8k is steep for me.

Played Black Knight 2000 a couple weeks ago. We have a small local chain of arcades here in the Austin area now (https://www.pinballzarcade.com/). Sadly they do not have my all time favorite at any of their locations, 8 Ball Deluxe. I used to own that game back in the day!

They do sell a few of them but yes, they are expensive. That BK2000 was available for about $5500. It was in great shape but damn!

I can justify spending the money if you are going to use it for a few years and sell it. They seem to hold value really well. It's repairs that really gets me.

Lol! I had a Black Knight 2000 pinball machine and sold it in 2006. Had a guy drive from Oklahoma to purchase the pinball machine and my arcade machine so he could setup a game room for the neighborhood kids.

I'm seeing a lot of remake consoles that you can put into a cabinet that have 200+ titles. I don't want to spend a fortune but I think it would be cool to have a couple of donkey kong and other favorites...just because. Might even think about something like operation wolf for my gun vault.

Yep - this is my next home-arcade project (already have the mame/console cabinet).

Skip to 12 minute mark if you want to see how it looks. Done right, they are pretty impressive!

Kiss and Xenon were my two faves growing up!

Never seen lone wolf, pretty cool.
