Any pinball fans here?

Pinball in college - it got us students out of our heads, and hanging with our buddies.

Now with smartphones - students are always in their heads.

Years ago, late 1990's I had a 1979 Williams Time Warp that when I bought it for about AU$300 had one jet bumper not working, cost me AU$70 to have the control board fixed, played it for a few year then sold it for AU$450.
Also had a Williams Terminator 2 Judgement Day not long after it came out paid AU$5000 but later sold it for AU$4000.
Wish I still had them as they go for AU$15000 for the Time Warp and over AU$25000 for the Terminator 2 now on Gumtree.
Both were in A1 condition.

I did an experiment with the Time Warp where I set the high score to 999990 then got a score of 000000, this made it flip out making a rising and falling noise then a crash noise and fire all solenoids at once which blew all the fuses, I thought it was fucked but replaced the fuses and it worked fine.

My highest score on the Terminator 2 was over 1,580,000,000 from 5 balls, I got so good at the cannon shot against moving targets I couldn't miss.
