Jacks Open is also quite cool with the way the drop targets sequence/reset works !
But it is a single-player game.
Unsure if you are looking for a 1, 2 or 4-player EM...

As AMX mentioned above, Williams EM machines have a lot more zip,
due to their usage of DC on the flippers.
But, hotter flipper coils can be purchased from PBR for Gottlieb...

Cheers,
- Sylvain.


Looking for 1966 Bally Capersville, 1967 Bally The Wiggler, 1981 Stern Viper, 1986 Pinstar Gamatron,
1986 Williams Grand Lizard, 1991 Williams Bride of Pinbot, and a few others.
Cash or some trades available. Could also repair a machine of yours +/-$ if needed, in exchange for
one machine on my want list, non-working/unshopped welcome!

Williams EMs are rapid and sonic ' s using williams technology . I ' m sold to sonic due to its polyurathane clearcoated colourfull playfields . Backglasses are good as well . Sold my mars trek and faces , but we decided to keep the super straight . Flippers, slings and pop bumpers are in DC , as fast as many SS are . I was lucky to get one that clean .

Hi Max

Royal flush or card whiz seem to be a good choice and you don't go wrong with a gottlieb. My father have a jake open also, so if you want to know more let me know...

Thanks guys, i prefer 2-4 players game but Jacks Open look also a nice game to play.
You confirm my first choice. I will look more for Royal Flush and Joker Poker in the future  
Williams are less attractive in a first view but if you know a very nice title from Williams i can check more.

I own both these (JP & CW), and they are both good, and both different.

On est plus dans les cards game mais Williams Grand Prix semble une excellente pin, j'aime beaucoup sont playfield. Je vais garder un oeil dessus. Space Mission je ne l'aime pas car on ne peut pas capturer la balle avec les flippers.

Je suis ouvert a d'autre possibilitées !!

Donc pour le moment:
Gottlieb Joker Poker
Gottlieb Royal Flush
Williams Grand Prix

Although it is a single player, I really like Top Card, a classic Gottlieb wedge head. To make it a bigger challenge, people recommend 3 ball play but wired for 5 ball rules.

If anyone finds a good one please let me know, its the only EM I want to own right now. Love the negotiable outlanes.



Ten SS games...but 8 is my limit!
