what do you think about using ceramic wax on pins

I think you guys need to accelerate your airing. This is all 2 week old news or older now. Or change the name maybe? Bro, don't listen to other podcasts before we air ours... later.

I was having trouble with the bounty hunts, until I did the recommended adjustment to the reel. Now that I get more spins per shot, I find that the bounties naturally happen more frequently. Regardless, I still only get to the second shark. I agree the rules are fine for the bounties the way they are, but maybe they could guide you into starting the next bounties another way. I purposely don't shoot the reel unless I have too, which causes me to forget that I need to shoot it to start the next bounty.

I agree Jaws is my favorite Elwin (other than 60th for me, but that's a bit of an outlier). Love the wave ramp to upper pf ramp shot. It's so unique and challenging. Also don't make the shark challenges easier. I've only had ~500 games on my LE and I've already been very close to capturing the 4th shark.

I have concrete floors, so the rubber footies go on every game. They work great plus make it a bit tougher as slide saves are really tough. Overall just less ability to physically move the machine.

Episode 74 time index 29:09

Stern makes a habit of lying, brazenly; Gomez said “both versions” of Godzilla Premium would “be available” in the 70th release video. 🐴💩 👎 I traded a highly collectible pin to my distro for a NIB (COLOR) Zilla “due in July.” They even lied to HIM. He’s now got four buyers who don’t want that ball-camouflager B&W one. 😖😮‍💨 At least he lent me an AIQ Premium till they DO release the color ones (“early 2025”!). Stop lyin, George; you sound like a little kid. 🥴

Can never catch your show live. Have notifications on RUclips. Maybe live on twitch first ? Do you use FB to announce dates ?

I like the leaderboard idea. They should be able to highlight a single game while maintaining a leaderboard for every game. This could align with the I.C. badge events, or their efforts to promote games that aren't moving... Having an 'on location' board would help the operators, so Stern should definitely do that. I want to say Mr. Gomez made a comment around the time of the Wick interviews that global leaderboards have a privacy/infosec concern that isn't trivial. I think I noticed that my son/daughter's minor I.C. accounts have a few more restrictions (doesn't display their real name, for example). I think they want to do it... deploying it sounds harder than we'd expect.

Ocelot is 37 min from me.

Where is my LoTR, Tron, Indiana Jones, Matrix, Fifth Element, and Goonies pins? Give the people what they want! I dont own a JJP but if they release Matrix I will be buying it.

I hit this recently for the first time-by luck alone! Had no idea what the hell was going on!

I am thinking about buying one of these tomorrow for $900! With the topper!

What makes the ramp lift? Like what decide when it happens in the rules?

Some thoughts on it after playing it at Next Level Pinball: I know newer machines won't show mechanical failures the same rate as old ones but I am shocked at how well it holds compared to other companies machines like Spooky's or even modern Sterns. No lateral translation to another machine, either to another Jersey Jack machine or in general. This might be a positive or negative depending on how you look at it. I personally dislike the in-game screens on the other JJPs but the artwork on all of them are stunning just like this one. Each section of the playfield feels cordoned off. There's no unexpected bounce shot or anything. Outlanes, personally hate them here. At least its different.

$1600 for this table is a great deal.

I think this is going to be a legendary game and great success

Does Nick still love this game all this time later or did it go?

You guys seriously need to fix the Tilt factor on that game. Never seen anything that touchy.

If I have a physical table, then why would I want to play digital pinball on it?

the king of pinball

What do you recommend to use on the outside of the game around the flipper buttons and the start button?

Do you do 1 or 2 coats of wax when waxing whether touch ups or full playfield?

Man I love that the graphics are magnetic. These machines are ahead of the times. I have to get one of these one day. Awesome job

Great show. New subscriber. Let's get Spooky to make a NIGHT OF THE LIVING DEAD cabinet all black and white with neon green accents

Arent American pinball doing Masters of the universe pinball table ?

Great episode you two! Theme is important but along the same lines as you Nick I wasn’t interested in GF, EJ, or Jaws and now we own all 3 and love them! Can’t wait to see what the next JJP release will be. Wait….. my wallet is not as excited about that. 😂

Sounds like the only legit criticism could be that knew many people find PF difficult when you asked "is it easy?". Had you acknowledged you had an outlier experience that brought up questions, maybe the response would have been different (or not...pinside forums are pretty terrible)

9:47, the alice in wonderland white wood with black sketch, with no gradient fill looks pretty cools as is. Even white plastic ramps. I am sure it wouldn't stay too clean, so maybe its not terribly practical, but it looks neat. They should do the the godzilla b&w like this. No gradient grey fills, just outlines, and maybe a few colors here and there to make things pop.

How the fuck is Dutch still in business?? Lmao. What a horrendous business model. They probably have some billionaire backing them like JJP now does. 😂

Have a Zeppelin premium and Godzilla LE….objectively Zep has better combo shots and light show/music but that’s about it. Zilla has it beat in every other metric from code/rules , art, playfield layout, fun factor. For me Godzilla is not the greatest pin of all time but still top 10 pin & Zepplin would be lucky to be in top 25.

Hey guys. Interesting show here. First Nick I’m still blown away that you aren’t a fan of Godzilla. That being said, pulp fiction was hard for me. Great job getting to DI. As for your interest in Wick; I just played it this weekend and I was blown away even with the early code. The public is crazy. Keep doing what you’re doing. I might not agree with everything, but opinions are subjective… people can’t accept that then eff em! Except BBQ challenge… that just sucks lol. Appreciate the content.

Humble brag guy. Haha. Just surprising you did it so fast. I tend to crush games when I first play them cause it’s just getting back to your natural skills and playing before you’re too concerned about the rules. I probably just set mine up too hard, but I haven’t lit more than 2-3 of the requirements. I guess just don’t be surprised if there’s a long drought until you play that mode again. Haha I will say the ones we compete on we took rubbers off and use bouncy red rubbers on the flippers and tight tilt as it was playing long.

Houdini seems like a fun game and a good theme everything else about American pinball looks like shit lol

I found it interesting you almost never passed the ball between flippers like I have seen other people do. I have a favorite flipper to shoot from depending on what i need to hit. Also, you shift that game a lot to save balls...must not be a tilt warning.😉

Cut to the chase 6:00

My college had one and I spent $1.25 on it every day. Now I own my own. I know it's not the greatest pinball ever made, but it's my favorite. Still looking for the gopher topper though!

Star good. Got it! Lol

Most early SS machines are boring. Nothing in the lower playfield and the same sounds on every machine.

Man this is one weird and cool table!

This channel & the boys really growin on me. This makes me wish I were back in Tonawanda (did I say that out loud? 👀🥸-shoutout to Colasso Taco’s sausage sub 🥳). 😅 I’ll never get why so many people squat over this pin-it’s a GREAT target shooter w good ball times & modes/upgrades. 🤷‍♂️ This one looks CLEAN, too. 👍

man Jamie from progressive gets fucking pissed about pinball

You used to have a video of you beating the game...what happened to that one?

Guaranteed neither buy a John Wick hahah Ugh, too shilly anymore. “Artwork looks great” ……..

I'm sure open source code won't cause ANY issues. God homepin is such a joke.

Jeffery ~ Alright, what do I do? I wasn't even paying attention.

You got the lvl 1 skill shot by bricking the shark shot and then hitting the pop bumper. No switches til the pop.

I got that pinball but I had the road show. But it stop working so I got the pin ball that u got I want to get to that part that park scares me

Super cool! Awesome to see a 3rd party game for a 3rd party module!
