My #1 favorite machine ... everything you do and have makes me jealous 😂😂 keep Killin the game ..I want to do a mod on my 1up machine that you did but I suck at stuff like this😩😩😩 I need new tables😂
This was one of my all time favourite tables as a kid. I played it a handful of times back when my local mall had an arcade in it. If I didn’t live in an apartment and could afford it I’d love to own one of these tables. I’d even do research and any repairs and cleaning it needed 😊
No way! I used to play this when my grandma would take me to the McDonalds on Glenstone! The gun handle with the trigger as the launch button blew my 10 year old mind.
Keep coming with the physical pinball restoration videos. I love to tinker and have been wanting to mess around with a good 90's pinball machine for the longest time. If you could also convince Mindy to let us put one in our house that would awesome.
THATS A NISSAN SENTRA IN YOUR ROOM!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎈🎉🍾🎊 BEFORE I RETIRE, I’M GOING TO PURCHASE A FEW CLASSIC PINBALL MACHINES MYSELF AND MOD IT MYSELF!!! ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF YOUR INVESTMENT
I just picked up the new Stern jurassic park home edition and I couldn't be happier! I love it! I've had lot of people over to play it. I grew up playing this DE machine as well!
CoolToy, So cool you got your DREAM MACHINE! It's funny, I've never played this Data East Jurassic Park pinball, real or virtual. Not being a fan of the first two films, I know sacrilege, I always passed this one up in the arcade. However, if I would've paid attention and saw noticed the Data East branding, I might have given it a try. Data East made some fantastic pinball back in the day, Star Wars, Star Trek (with the beaming animation on the backglass) and Tommy were some of my favorites! Didn't know about the T-Rex eat the ball action... SO AWESOME! Thanks as always for sharing and again, congrats on the dream find! vgv
Hey hey! Congrats!! What a score!! I think it's amazing how extraordinarily complicated a Pinball machine really is. I think very few people really understand and you're off to an excellent start at keeping a true classic alive!! 👌 One thing, I hope you'll keep some of the original art. Patina is character. I know some people like their machines to be as perfect as new, bit I'd say used with life preservation is perfect!
This was my absolute favorite pinball machine growing up in the 90s. I used to play it at my local pizza place. I loved, of course, the t Rex eating the ball. Was at my local barcade recently, and asked if they knew this machine, and could maybe get one? They said it is nearly impossible...so congrats! Dude, you gotta get that second pterodactyl....
Congratulations. One day I'll get a pinball machine. Don't have the room in my a house right now. Williams Big Guns is the table I want. Fell in love with it playing it in college. Wish Pinball FX would add Big Guns to their library.
Yeah Zen really needs to start releasing more of the Williams tables digitally. They've had the Williams licenses for several years but have only released a handful of tables to date.
LUCKY DUCK!! :D Digital pinball is fantastic - and has come in leaps and bounds over recent years, but there's nothing quite like playing a real pinball. That tactile, light and sound experience, there's nothing quite like it. And you got a beauty... definitely one of the best pinballs ever made!
I just finished my virtual cabinet build - much of it was the help through your videos. This was one of the first virtual tables I got running and my theme of the table is JP! Such a great table - very fast paced action - lots of difficult shots. Congrats on grabbing it!
coming from addam's family I thought it wasn't a good pinball, but it was actually super hectic active and fun to build high scores, a top 5 pinball in my world
Amazing find Doug. People rag on this old Data Easts but they have some gems such as LAH and JP. I recently sold my VPIN and picked up my holy grail pin, Williams Congo! I was terrified to even lift the playfield, but now I'm quite comfortable working on the machine. Problem with real pinball is that you can't own just one lol. 3 for me so far lol. Enjoyed the content my friend.
Great find, 👍. Also if you want an extra views link your video link to Facebook Jurassic Park pinball group and go on pinside and link it to Jurassic Park pinball video section.
I'm envious. I've been trying to get one for ages. My father in law has a business of arcades and pinballs etc. Been working on them for over 30 years. Never seen Jurassic Park. I have my heart set on Revenge from Mars myself.
@@cooltoy indeed. I think it's because pinball is just one of those dying things you don't see in the little bars anymore. They wind up in private hands and given their price are rarely sold except when the owner dies.
Congratulatulations :) although there is a lot of work to be done, I'm sure it is very rewarding :) Maybe one day I'll get a hold of one since this game is my wife's favourite pinball game.
absolutely, there is just something about doing your own repairs/upgrades that make the end result that much sweeter when one accomplishes the task(s) at hand.
Congratulations on your beautiful Jurassic Park pinball machine, Doug! It's the machine I probably played the most growing up too, and I'd love to own one myself some day when I have the room. In a few weeks my very first real, full-size pinball machine will arrive here, Stern's Jurassic Park Home Pin! I am so excited, but I still have to make some room for it, my house is too full of Arcade1Ups. When Data East sold the JP pinball machines, they included the replacement slingshot plastics either as replacements or to give operators the option to customise the machine, so they're not an aftermarket part (there's a video on TH-cam showing the unboxing of NIB Data East JP where you'll see they came included). It's interesting that a few of us home arcade people are getting JP pinball machines lately, I wonder who will be the first of us to add a Sega Lost World to their home arcade.
I’m thinking it but unfortunately responsibilities are calling and I’ve got the new kiddo on the way. So unless I strike it rich somehow a third machine is going to be hard for me to expense and justify
You are off to a great start! Having OCD should be a prerequisite to owning a real pinball machine. You have the Stranger Things machine too, right? They may battle each other for Supremacy! What a great addition! Off to a great start cleaning because it already looks pretty damn nice!
Yep got Stranger Things, this new one and a slew of digital pinball machines now. It’s been fun to share this hobby with my wife as she has become quite enamored with pinball.
Welcome to the pinball collecting obsession. Be warned, they breed! The data east JP is an awesome machine. Still miss the one I used to own. Great theme, modes, rules and toys. So much fun. Enjoy!!!
Awesome you found one, I have one too. My favorite as a kid. I bought mine in KC in 2004. Really good shape came from a German night club. Coin door has DM instead of quarters otherwise same. Always wanted the led mod. It's alot of labor. I don't work on it myself beyond basic stuff. There is a local guy that does quality repair. One thing since 2006 ish when stopped researching there was a count of 7700 not 9000? Wonder how that's happened. Honestly if you take 7700, and factor in about 2000 went over seas....the amount of tables in the US drop drastically. Even in 2004 a good one locally was hard to find. Good on ya!
9,008 produced is the number I've always seen on this machine. Glad you've got a local pinball repair guy locally, they are becoming fewer and fewer in number these days.
Congrats man on your purchase. DATA EAST made some great tables. My favourite is Tommy. Have fun! P.S. Is The Simpsons really that much smaller than JP?
Congrats Doug! I’m so happy you found this one. I love Ounball and want a real table so bad and this video did absolutely nothing to dissuade me. Sounds like a ton of work though. Awesome man
Yeah it’s very similar to owning a vehicle, things will invariably go wrong with it and they require regular maintenance to keep them operating long term, but man are they fun 👍
Haha that's great I knew I guessed it when you didn't reply to it! You're going to love it i had it in my house for almost 6 years was the first game I wanted when i got a machine! Only sold it cuz of elwins new masterpiece!
The Elwin one is very fun. If it wasn't for the Pro version not having a moving T-Rex I may have bought that machine instead of my Stranger Things machine.
Yeah as great as the new one is you gota go premium there is no way I'm selling my 28 year old machine for a JP with a static T-Rex. Tho they did create a mod called T-Rex alive or something like that for the pro you may want to look into for future reference. It's very cool it fooled me in a twitch stream but it still can't interact with the ball. Plus that raptor pen on the new premium is amazing. Anyway I'm thrilled your part of the community looking fwd to more pinball content from you happy new year!
It's all self taught, I've always just been one of those people who needed to know how things work. As a kid a got in trouble a lot for always dismantling toys and things in the house just so I could better understand how they operated. The internet is chock full or great message boards and helpful videos, so if you are curious to learn more about the repair side of the pinball hobby, you can rest assured the information is out there somewhere.
Hey, Cooltoy!! We just managed to find a good deal on a Jurassic Park Data east as well. We're wondering if the MPU has to be replaced with a newer one though. What capabilities does the newer MPU do for the machine? I want to add a color dmd and upgrade to the 6.0 code as well as add the pinsound setup as well. Do you know if the new MPU is necessary to make these newer additions?
MPU doesn’t have to be replaced for any particular reason. The Data East ones are just known to be less than bullet proof and enough have failed over three years that the third party boards are often the best course of action. If yours is still working without issue though, there is no need to swap yours out to prepare for any of those mods you listed
Rubbers are incredibly cheap and rather simple to install for most machines, so there really is no excuse for people to not keep up with regularly changing them out when needed.
Fantastic pick up!!! I have one myself… absolutely no regrets… still a fantastic game after all these years!!! Check out mine on the page and I left some links on my review if you wanted to hit up some mods for it.. nice pick up buddy!
Dang, I've always wanted my own official authentic pinball machine but I have no knowledge of how to maintain or repair them. Nor do i have any interest in learning, LOL. I just want a pinball cabinet that works and is reliable haha! But I know that because they are mechanical, they need an owner that would be able to expand their lifespan. That's not me. I'm probably not worthy of owning something like this.
Yes, yes, yes, but can it play space invaders? We in the UK come January will have a stockist of the Atgames Legends pinball cabinets, £800 or $1,073. It is on my bucket list to get, even though I am not a massive fan of pinball. I just hope that we do not get old and unsold models from the States as that would be a kick in the teeth, they were supposed to have been here May 2021. I will be looking for when you release that video about hiding the usb and input ports at the top. It honestly looks disgusting with all those cables attached, I do not even like the d-pad, and please don't get me started on people butchering a pinball cabinet with a joystick control panel. The flipper buttons should have been used since day one for up, down, left, right and then enter keys for the coin door.
hey cool toy, u gonna make a video on the arcade 1up premium cabinets? just awful news for the people who just paid $799 for the ki cabinet to only find out weeks later, today they announce ki premium cabinet. wat a waste of money! terrible on arcade 1up.
Nope, no video from me. I prefer to defy conformity on my channel, so you won't see a video from me on that. Too many people making the exact same video today already about the same thing, and each video is the same as the rest.

Have you ever played this machine before? Let me know your thoughts on it in the comments below!
Jurassic Park Premium or Avengers Infinity Quest would probably be next on my wish list
I own one as well! Chaos multiball is my favorite!
My #1 favorite machine ... everything you do and have makes me jealous 😂😂 keep Killin the game ..I want to do a mod on my 1up machine that you did but I suck at stuff like this😩😩😩 I need new tables😂

This was my absolute favourite pinball machine back in the day.
No way! I used to play this when my grandma would take me to the McDonalds on Glenstone! The gun handle with the trigger as the launch button blew my 10 year old mind.
Keep coming with the physical pinball restoration videos. I love to tinker and have been wanting to mess around with a good 90's pinball machine for the longest time. If you could also convince Mindy to let us put one in our house that would awesome.
THATS A NISSAN SENTRA IN YOUR ROOM!!! CONGRATULATIONS 🎈🎉🍾🎊 BEFORE I RETIRE, I’M GOING TO PURCHASE A FEW CLASSIC PINBALL MACHINES MYSELF AND MOD IT MYSELF!!! ALWAYS TAKE CARE OF YOUR INVESTMENT
Interesting. Buying an 'old' pinball machine is not for everybody and a lot of work. But it is, or becomes a hobby. Thanks for the tour!
It's definitely work to keep the older machines in working order, but it's very satisfying to bring them back to life and their former glory.
I just picked up the new Stern jurassic park home edition and I couldn't be happier! I love it! I've had lot of people over to play it. I grew up playing this DE machine as well!
CoolToy,
So cool you got your DREAM MACHINE! It's funny, I've never played this Data East Jurassic Park pinball, real or virtual.

vgv
Data East really had some gems in the 90s, they were the kings of pinball when it came to securing big IPs.
Check out pinsound sound board, headphone station, shaker mods.
Second that- DE stock sounds and repetitive call-outs let their machines down; otherwise I like them as much as most WPC games. Great buy Cool Toy 🦖
Yep, pinsound is definitely on the list of upgrades I’ll be making
Glad you found this. Nice having games that you cherish from childhood
Hey hey! Congrats!! What a score!! I think it's amazing how extraordinarily complicated a Pinball machine really is. I think very few people really understand and you're off to an excellent start at keeping a true classic alive!! 👌
One thing, I hope you'll keep some of the original art. Patina is character. I know some people like their machines to be as perfect as new, bit I'd say used with life preservation is perfect!
Yep, no worries I’m still going to preserve a lot of its original charm. I enjoy a good patina as well
H1 says "wow, what is Doug doing?... thats so cool"
lol I'm just playing with dinosaurs, you know the usual.
What a dream come true!!!

What a cool toy Doug ,but it proves why a real pinball machine may never be in my future. Enjoy!
it's like owning a car, regular maintenance and things breaking down on them are just part of owning one.
This happened a lot sooner than expected! Wonder what #3 will be? 😉
We went to a pinball arcade the other day and played this one a lot
Wise choice!
I used to love playing this pinball machine back in the 90s!
LUCKY DUCK!! :D Digital pinball is fantastic - and has come in leaps and bounds over recent years, but there's nothing quite like playing a real pinball. That tactile, light and sound experience, there's nothing quite like it. And you got a beauty... definitely one of the best pinballs ever made!
Much appreciated, nothing beats the feel of real tactile gaming
Congrats on your Machine!! Beautiful!
Thank you 🙏
Omg, how fast the collection is growing, im so jelly, if you need to make room, i guess i could take your Simpsons pinball off your hands 🤔😏😷😎
Thanks Adam!
I just finished my virtual cabinet build - much of it was the help through your videos. This was one of the first virtual tables I got running and my theme of the table is JP! Such a great table - very fast paced action - lots of difficult shots. Congrats on grabbing it!
Great to hear! Hopefully you are enjoying your virtual cabinet.
Congratulations on getting one of your dream pinball machines.
Thanks you very much!
That's an awesome find! Can't wait to see the full restoration!

Congo is such a fun game!
A local place near me has a modern jurassic park pinball table set to free play along with a deadpool table.
that's awesome, very rarely do I see modern machines set up for free play anywhere
Looks great. Congrats on the find/buy.
Thanks!
Nice addition to the collection Doug. I can't believe that sweater came with a free pin! :)
Right?! What a deal! 😂
Great job fixing it Doug! Looks amazing and I’m extremely happy for you that you scored this
Thank you so much!
That’s awesome, congratulations!!!
Thank you very much!
The real deal! Awesome
That's awesome bro Congratulations on the new pin
Thank you so much 😀

Such a dope pickup congrats on the holy grail
Thanks, I appreciate it!

Isn't that strange! Like I said, over 9,000 of these machines were made, but for some odd reason I rarely see them in the wild.
@@cooltoy indeed. I think it's because pinball is just one of those dying things you don't see in the little bars anymore. They wind up in private hands and given their price are rarely sold except when the owner dies.
Awesome pickup. Big JP fan. I have my stern on order. Won’t get it until March most likely.
Nice! March isn't too bad, I've heard of many people who are having to wait until August for their order to get filled.
Congrats probably one of the best - just curious you getting the new stern version? I hear that one is really amazing ;)
That one is a fun game to play for sure, but there are other Stern machines I would purchase before buying that one personally.
They have this machine at a arcade place the town next door and it's a awsome pinball machine. I play that and the adams family
Congrats on the new pin!!! Getting real machines is so addictive. I'm itching to get another one so bad
Got your eye on anyone game in particular?
Yah all the tubers that were into arcade1ups are now chasin pins. You guys are gonna love the hobby even more!@
Congratulations 🎈🎊🎉 Brother
Thanks Adam!
CONGRATULATIONS brother 👏
Does this mean no GODZILLA PINBALL?
HAPPY NEW YEAR IN ADVANCE..
No Godzilla pinball for me unless I win the lottery or find out I have a secret rich benefactor just waiting to offload a large sum of money to me 🤑
Nice get! I was going to buy one last year but it was in worst shape than I thought. Fun machine for sure!
Congrats on the machine! Its a fun one!.Excited to see what you have planned for it
Thank you!

Congrats on getting the JP Home Pin. Jack Danger designed a really cool machine in that one.
Nice! This must have cost at least $2k! Sweet you now own one!
Happy for ya bro!
Thanks man!
Cant wait to see this one updated. Very sweet find👍
You and me both!
What's the one to the left of it? Oh, nevermind. You've been busy with the pinball. Wow! Getting caught up. Travelling too much.
Congratulations Doug!!! What will be your third pinball machine? You know you are thinking it!!! 🤣🤣🤣
I’m thinking it but unfortunately responsibilities are calling and I’ve got the new kiddo on the way. So unless I strike it rich somehow a third machine is going to be hard for me to expense and justify
Really interested in a video of how you fill and level out the scoops. Mine look almost exactly the same and want to keep them in good condition
You are off to a great start! Having OCD should be a prerequisite to owning a real pinball machine. You have the Stranger Things machine too, right? They may battle each other for Supremacy! What a great addition! Off to a great start cleaning because it already looks pretty damn nice!
Yep got Stranger Things, this new one and a slew of digital pinball machines now. It’s been fun to share this hobby with my wife as she has become quite enamored with pinball.
Nice pick. I've had DE JP for 2 years and I still love it.
Awesome, that’s what I like to hear.
Try to close out the chaos multiball and hit the ramp to put up some monster scores. Easier said than done for sure.
Hey Doug Clean the playfield really well and put some superbands on the flippers
I've been partial to getting all my pinball rubbers from Titan
@@cooltoy Whatever it takes man hope you got a good deal on this pin
Super nice man
Thanks Glen!
Was. That what you were hauling??? So jealous!
Yep, I’ve found my wife’s SUV does an excellent job of hauling pinball machines easily. Much to her dismay 😆
Make sure to clean the subway ramp. Will make game quicker and stay clean.
One of the first things I did when I got it home 👍
👍 nice
You need to get a color dmd for it. Congrats!
Absolutely, it's at the top of my list of things to get.
Welcome to the pinball collecting obsession. Be warned, they breed! The data east JP is an awesome machine. Still miss the one I used to own. Great theme, modes, rules and toys. So much fun. Enjoy!!!
they definitely do multiply!
Rad! Definitely one at the top of my want list, I know where one is sitting in a garage, going to have to ask about it next time I'm there for work.
Do it!
Awesome you found one, I have one too. My favorite as a kid. I bought mine in KC in 2004. Really good shape came from a German night club. Coin door has DM instead of quarters otherwise same.

A very nice build if I may say so myself
Congrats man on your purchase. DATA EAST made some great tables. My favourite is Tommy. Have fun! P.S. Is The Simpsons really that much smaller than JP?
The Simpsons you see is my modded AtGames virtual pinball machine. So that's why it's much smaller.
@@cooltoy Well you did a great job on that mod.
Congrats Doug! I’m so happy you found this one. I love Ounball and want a real table so bad and this video did absolutely nothing to dissuade me. Sounds like a ton of work though. Awesome man
Yeah it’s very similar to owning a vehicle, things will invariably go wrong with it and they require regular maintenance to keep them operating long term, but man are they fun 👍
Please give us an update after you do all your upgrades!
absolutely will do 👍
Doug how excited are you for Cobra Kai Season 4 tomorrow? Would love to see a video from you on your thoughts on the show.
I'll be binging through it this weekend for sure!
Great find 👍. Is there anything in the diagnostics that shows the total running time, just out of curiosity?
Haha that's great I knew I guessed it when you didn't reply to it! You're going to love it i had it in my house for almost 6 years was the first game I wanted when i got a machine! Only sold it cuz of elwins new masterpiece!

What game is your most wanted?
@@cooltoy Mine would be PINBOT, or Elvira.... What's your most wanted one?
You should open an Arcade!
no way, then I 'd have to pay even more taxes to the government
will you do a pinsound mod?
I did in a later video: th-cam.com/video/ut6kX9QGtWs/w-d-xo.htmlsi=_ASw-Jf3KkUSsHOY

Hey, Cooltoy!! We just managed to find a good deal on a Jurassic Park Data east as well. We're wondering if the MPU has to be replaced with a newer one though.

Replace your rubbers. Sage advice.

Nope, no video from me. I prefer to defy conformity on my channel, so you won't see a video from me on that. Too many people making the exact same video today already about the same thing, and each video is the same as the rest.
@@cooltoy i hear ya. i ran respect that well take care and hope to hear some news on the ces even if ur going attending it.
