Re: when can bars turn pinball machines in again?

We visited Targ on Friday. The set up is about as safe as it can be, with plexiglass dividers between the pinball machines, and marked traffic lanes To circulate around the bar. Masks on if you are not sitting at your appropriately distanced table. The games are on free play (cover charge instead) s...

Re: Panthera Party

Speaking of a couple of rough Pantheras.... I don’t mean to crash your Panthera party, but I thought I’d share this... So the wife and I were touring Morocco last Sept-oct and the weirdest pinball thing happened. I was not expecting to find any pinball in Morocco, but on a strange hunch I poked my h...

Re: Iron Man NEW code 01.85 ten years later!

A new acdc code, with an actual Oi! Mania mode would be sweet. While they are at it, a mini wizard mode part way to Encore would also be a nice. I have to set it to 10 balls to have a chance at Encore! Even Bowen couldn’t do it on a 3 ball game... so the “play better!” option is probably out of the ...

Re: Northstar Pinball bar (Montreal), no free games

I voted yes please, but the poll is a bit like asking if you’d like the cherry on top of your sundae, or not. Cmon, for sure I’ll take the cherry. Tell you what though, it’s the ice cream that makes the sundae and they serve a delicious and generous helping on The Main and unless the weather turns f...

Re: Northstar Pinball bar (Montreal), no free games

Location pinball without the chance to win a free game just feels wrong to me. I am planning to hit the North Star this Saturday, and this news will in no way change my plans, but I must say I am a tad bummed to learn this...I had visions of winning a game or two :D That said, if there was a way to ...

Re: Amusement arcades in downtown Montreal, circa 1980s.

Does anyone remember Amusements L-Z on ste Catherine or maybe de maisonneuve about two blocks east of the forum? It would have been open until 1984 at least. It was a bit dingy if I recall, with a modest line up of pins, including a defenceless Harlem globetrotters. I remember the name of the arcade...

Re: FT STTNG, AF, Judge Dredd, The Shadow

I don’t have anything close to what you’re looking for (I have Bally Eight Ball, Paragon, and gtb Sky Jump) but I’d be interested in a cash deal for one of your available games. I’m in the Saguenay region at least once or twice a year, maybe we can work something out.

Re: Welcome to MAACA! Introduce yourself!

I am Steve. I’ve played pinball my whole life practically, but only started “collecting” (if you can call what I do collecting lol) three years ago when my wife spearheaded an effort to get me a pinball machine for my 50th bday. I am up to 3 now with pre-approval for more! Hit me up if you are looki...
