    Many of you have asked to see more pinball videos. So, here is a quick "close-up" of one particular machine in my collection. I hope you enjoy it and look for future installments coming soon.

    Great review! I just received this pinball machine from a friend it sat in a storage unit for 10 years I brought it home and it turned on I removed the double a batteries that had corrosion so i will have to replace that holder and all the rubbers need replacement but can't wait to play it machine looks great!

    I played Whirlwind tons, but I've never been able to find an Earthshaker... in any case, thanks for another excellent video!

    I used to play this game in a small bar in college known for always having the 5 best pins available at the moment. Whenever someone set off the shaker, the whole bar shook. Someday I will own a mint copy of this game. I'm glad you do.

    You're right. The mid to late 80's Williams pins were the best. I like their early dot matrix ones also but have a soft spot for the pre dot matrix ones. I just picked up an Earthshaker myself. Great game.

    @shorty1k Haunted House is a fun game. It is not one I would buy personally (I'm not much into the System-80, early Gottlieb machines). But, it is fun. That's a tough one to buy as well...notorious for being a wreck and always busted. Make sure to pick one up from a collector who has gone through it and re-worked the whole thing. Hee hee.
    Thanks for watching, as always!

    loved this vid. it took me right back to when i was 14 !!!!!
    they used to have this in an arcade called " seapoint " in salthill , galway.
    the arcade is still there , but sadly 95% of the games are not, inc this pinball machine. they only had a small collection , namely this and addams family , and the others were T2 and star wars, revenge of the sith , which is my fav of all time.

    @MultiDrJekyll It is from a "royalty free" set of music I purchased called "Flying Hands."

  • @texaswerewolf
    @texaswerewolf 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Wow that just brought back alot of memories for me as well. I played this at my local arcade ( when we still have one ) and the local bowling alley. I agree that the older pinball machines had a special something that the newer ones do not have.

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @Konuvis Yes, I have seen that one . I actually own the original release on the Wii (that doesn't have the MM and couple newer tables). It plays pretty well and surprises me how good they got the physics on it. You know? Thanks!

    @123Sideshow I shot 17 total segments (with the 17th segment having quick looks at Family Guy and Big Bang Bar, didn't need full ones of those, and two project games Pinbot and Banzai Run). :)

    I remember this one as well, My dad owned a pool hall. Nobody new what the hell was going on when it started shaking, but the girls seem to like it, they kept leaning up against it. lol

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @DragonHunterG There isn't any way to show a cabinet shaking on "camera." You can only feel it shaking. :)
    Thanks for watching.

    Thanks a bunch for watching!!

    i love earthshaker and whirlwind. although i did play more of whirlwind instead given that it had the cool spinning cyclone in the middle of the playing field. unless i'm thinking of another pinball. it's been about 15 years since i played any pinball games. can't seem to find them anymore.

  • @spida1a

  • @propcycle
    @propcycle 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very nice example of an ES you have there.. You don't seem to be aware of how the jackpot works; it is sequentially advanced with each served ball and every time you clear the drops (billboard). It's one of the most important parts of the game since you want to try to nudge it to 1.5M+EB or up to 2.5M during multiball.

  • @nlafavore

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @sfchris Hey sfchris! That's great. Thanks for sharing the memories.
    It definitely isn't mint....but an excellent above average game. You know? I'm glad to have it. Thanks for watching!!!!

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @Corad4 The "shaking" doesn't mess with you as much as you would think. It's more of a little rumble that you feel in your hands. You know?
    Electro-mechanical games? Yes, I have played many of them. :)

  • @modbradshaw
    @modbradshaw 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Another awesome review Chris. Please keep them coming! Can't wait till you let the genie out of the bottle, talking about the movie-bomb license games that are easy to miss....but absolutely should not if your into pinball (The Shadow & Johnny Mnemonic).

  • @zfcamaro
    @zfcamaro 14 ปีที่แล้ว

    Very well done and nice editing. I just picked up a BK2000 and Earthshaker is the next pin I'd like to get. 1989 is when I started playing as well and those were the two that I pumped the most quarters into. Do you happen to have any footage of you playing the game??? It would be nice to see a few minutes of someone who know exactly how to beat it.

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @linkuofcourage I always liked it as well. :)

  • @trumexballer
    @trumexballer 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Hey, Chris. I was looking into picking up an Earthshaker machine. And, I was wondering if you could help me out with a few questions: The offer price is $1500, and he claims it's in OK condition. At that price, and considering I'll need to do some work to put in good condition, do you think this is a fair price? Also, what major flaws or areas should I be most concerned about fixing up? (What costs the most to fix?)
    Thanks a lot! Love what you've done for the pinball community!!!!

    @dickcheney6 I don't have any experience with older Stern machines. But, I do enjoy Meteor. I would post on the rec.games.pinball newsgroup with your problem. Someone will have the answer for sure.

  • @spida1a
    @spida1a  14 ปีที่แล้ว

    @mnkycmkydu It really all depends on make, model, rarity, condition, etc. Too many variables to judge. But, you can look to pay about $1500 for an average "Earthshaker" (that has some wear, more so than mine does). Give or take of course.

    Another game that has a nostalgic partner just like Fish Tales / White Water.
    Williams should have not been cheap with removal of the prototype collapsing building.
    A honorary remembrance again when many sound clips were REUSED in Creature from the Black Lagoon.

    1:12 Once I got a replay just as I smacked the game to get a really lucrative target (different game) and the knocker triggered. I thought for a second that I broke the machine!

    After TZ, and Roadshow, Earthshaker is my 3rd favorite Lawlor table - I think Addams Family is an overrated remake of Whirlwind. But Whirlwind has the charm that Addams Family doesn't.
