Someone needs to build a TNT pinball machine. With a Rudy-like Todd head on the playfield, Imbecile droptargets, CURT! multiball, Chase the clodhopper video mode, coffee maker animation in the backglass, all the TNT characters of course and "GET OUT!" at the end of the game.

Motordome was my first functioning pinball machine. I enjoyed it a lot actually, the sound didn't bother me too much. It doesn't have the replayabilty of other pins, but for the price you can't beat one of these for your first pin. Would be best in a big collection IMO

I remember playing the hell out of this pin back in the day at my local arcade. Always started on level 3 and get ridiculous scores.

The worst one is one that you have open the bottom and service like a car. It is too wide to lift the play field up. I forget the name of it.

@@lylejohnson7591 The Hercules' playfield would most likely bend if this gigantic pinball machine could have the playfield lifted in same way as in any standard sized pinball machine, such as one featured in this video. This is due to fact that heavy motors are used to drive mechanisms near the front of the playfield. This might be reason of having the doors on the bottom of the cabinet.

Yes, layers of programming to keep the player coming back to the same game!

I think the most irritating part of this machine are the plastic ramps covering the playfield. Most games put them towards the back and the sides to keep the playfield open, to see artwork, and, you know, to see your ball. That music though... I have to ask if the person who created this machine ever played it? 10 seconds of that and everyone I know would have said "O.k., let's find something less harsh, like a phone continually ringing or metal grinding."I did enjoy the last part after trashing most of the machine. "Oh, there is a color changing bulb right in the very back here. It's a nice touch." That had me laughing!

Great Video Todd, looks like I'm picking one of these up for pennies on the dollar. Do you have any tips on what to look for on the sound board (Apart from removing C30). It crackles when the pot(s) are turned up and down, but no sound. Any ideas?

Nah, I think the worst pinball ever made was Taito's Sure Shot, not only is it an Eight Ball Deluxe copycat, the designer decided to use a normal bonus counter instead of using the billiard balls, which looks weird because now the balls are the wrong color and there's no 20 & 30 ball in real pool. And to top it off, the sounds that get old fast. I know they wanted it to sound like a banjo, but instead it sounds like a toy keyboard you'll find at the dollar store. kzread.info/dash/bejne/fZl7lJWKm8W8hsY.html

Motordome was not one of my favorite pinball games. I was not a big fan for the background noise, and if I remember correctly, the match feature was different because if more then one player played the game, each player had a different number to match do if 2 people played the game player one the number to match would be 50 and player two the match would be 80

Not sure why this one is so universally hated. God-awful sound and cheap cabinet construction aside, it’s got a lot going for it as you mentioned in this video. I think the biggest knock against the actual GAMEPLAY is that if you can master the ramp shot it becomes a one-trick pony that ends up making all other scoring pointless, because the point reward is so skewed. I just picked one of these up for $135 that had been sitting years in a warehouse and for under $300 I should have all the kinks worked out + LEDs and whatnot. Not bad, even if it is “the worst pinball machine of all time” lol Glad I watched this video as I had no idea on the 912 bulbs on the sides..I was just putting 555s there. :/ I did end up with a couple of problem sockets trying to install the bulbs elsewhere under the PF; these wedge bulbs stink!

um..... probably a good thing. but wouldn't surprise me if some of the employees have. for free I've helped them find mucked up links when they moved servers. But since kids might be watching I'll let the audience figure out what ALS stands for... and they aren't balding either. Easier put in the early days of the net and dial up. nobody thought pictures would get as big as say 100megapixels that Hegre shoots in (a certain type of art that isn't quite Fine Art but isn't the P word either) not many people own a $40,000 + digital camera Bentley might cost more though :P but anyway we could fit several pictures on a 2.5 inch diskette (hardly a floppy :P and the glue's rotting on the metal spindles on those making the actual floppies maybe lasting longer if they were well made. but didn't hold as much. so 1/2 a megapixel seemed like rather big on a 13 inch screen. Not so much on 32 inch screens let alone 17 inch . So some sites have been so called remastering their old 1/2 megapixels photosets to at least around 5-6 mp. If it's from a negative can go much higher than that although typically I scan most negatives around the 30mp mark (prints around that as well.. Either way when you said Steven had remastered the cabinet. In movies it's restored. In the net and photosets it's remastered. Unless your talking about the sound :) and a movie that was originally in mono doesn't always sound better in 5.1 True HD or DTS Master Audio like say Once Upon a Time in the West. And I'm a bit of an audiophile I guess because I wanna here the sound like it should sound.... I would say the music on the above machine isn't the worst I've heard... Diner isn't a fav.
