I lived in Germany for a bit as a kid in the 80s. This game was in the game room at a hotel we stayed at on one of our road trips. I got obsessed with it during our stay but haven't seen it since. Thanks for the video.
the music in this was inspired by alice cooper gutter cat vs the jets as the sound designer was a fan. you can recognise some of it if you hear the song and activate the wheel in the middle!
A lot of the Williams pinball games seemed to have a steep tilt to them, which made it hard to get up the ramps a lot of times. If the game was just at a quick stop or other location, they likely would give the machine even more of a tilt. I remember some guy came in and carefully cranked up the lifts on the front legs, very slowly though, over time to give the game less 'gravity'. The only downside to that is it would make it so the game would 'tilt' if you even brushed against it in the front.
How much is this one worth i just saw it at a auction tv program on german tv and the expert valued it at 2500-3000 euro but they were only offered 1500 and declined. According to a us site that sells it its sold at 5000 dollars but out of stock
Not too impressed with shopping skills. 1) seafood kick out should be fast, not stop against the rubber like that. 2) trash can should kick out into the bumpers
I remember skipping school and playing this for hours in the local laundry mat. ahhh.... the good ol days.
I was literally just telling my son the same thing! Back in the day we would skip school and play this! It was the best game ever!!
Even to this day I go "meow, mew meow meow" at my cat for no apparent reason. All because of this pinball machine.
😂😂😂👍❤️
Me toooo!!!!
I was 8 when played with that in a sports club in my neighborhood 👌🏻
Happy memories of too much time spent on Bad Cats!
My all time favorite pin ball machine

I still quote this game all the time, "Bad kitty, meow meow meow meow"
It was nice when they used to make pinball games based on original ideas instead of all licensed stuff like they do now.
OMG I couldn't agree more!
TRUTH
If they made this game today it wouldn't sell at volume and would be a loss. You're free to make your own pins?
@dangerdonk6670 no one denied that, that doesnt mske the current reality suck less
edit: actually American Pinball and P3 might dispute this
The designer famously hated making this one lol
1:44 meow meow meow meow. Love this game its so quirky
;P
haha i love that too xD

Love this game. Thanks for posting this.
Man, playing with the glass off drives me bonkers.
My fave pinny
oh man, I could never have this one in a collection. my cat would rip my legs off!
I understand what you say. ...but im glad they are producing pinball machines again..... pinball was almost exctinct......
I loved this game. It's the only pinball machine I was ever "good" at playing.
me too use to love the sound when you got the ball up the ramp three times god I.wish I could have afford to buy this when our game room closed

Gosh I remembered playing one of these at the Ft. Knox PX store.
The old Ottobar brought me here.

I can play the machine better than that
