Main Feature Jackpot Detail |
Where purchased: Hoboken NJ, May 2012
Paid: $40 (talked down from $100)
Some menacing Brass pins |
Remember 'Plinko?' The Price is Right sub-game where you dropped a dollar sign disc down the board with the metal pins, and it dropped into the $0 slot at the bottom? well Here's the inspiration...
The Best Game you ever played |
"Deluxe Super!!" |
Super cool, super fun Vintage Game. I noticed it from the back as we
were walking up the block during the Hoboken City-wide garage sale. I
haggled for the life of me, mentioning about the expense for buying new
balls, no key for the front (although you don't really need one...) and
overall condition. I carried this about 3/4 mile home that day. And
this thing is heavy. I found some jammed pachinko balls, ordered 500
new balls from a sniped eBay auction for $28. Cleaned her up, polished
the metal, setup the plug for the jackpot and ball-out tray lights, and
we were well on our way to hours of clacking, ding-dinging fun. It's a
game of subtle pressure, and you want to aim for the payoff pockets,
tulips, and the main feature jackpot in the middle (which just pays off
the same amount) Start with 50 balls and see how much you can score.
My current high score is 222...
