pin on my list for sale in the area

Post by Gman »

You know the list right?
Every one has one, you might not have spent the effort to write it down but we all still have a list of things we have seen and think, I would like to have that.

I enjoy this machine, It is one of the few I enjoy playing the emulated version, it is passable on my PS2 title: Pinball hall of fame, the Williams collection.

I like the way this machine plays, I like mini playfields with actual flippers. I like the way the robot knight voice talks at you.

I think I prefer the Black Knight 2000 over the original. I think it was the first machine with "MagnaSave".
These are my opinions and just because I am the admin you don't have to agree with me

good memory! from ipdb:
Black Knight' introduced 'Magna-Save' and the Bonus Ball concept where the player with the highest score won additional seconds of free play. Magna-Save was a feature where a user could press a button on either side and magnets would prevent the ball from draining via that outlane. It would stop and hold the ball and drop it into the inlane. The user had to perform some task to re-enable magnasave.
'Black Knight' was the first solid state game with a multi-level playfield

Wow I actually remember that and actually remember playing it...

The last pinball I played was an Aadams Family machine I was fixing for the guy that owns the Production company I freelance to with the Machines... The "Thing" feature required a lot of micro adjustments... What a Pain, I actually added a piece of aluminum to inside the ball transport under the feature to make it reliable. Poorly designed for a machine with varying angles of tilt.
