This machine actually got me in trouble with my mother once. I'd been sent to the corner store to get things so that she could make dinner, and on my way out I decided to play a quick game. Turns out I spent close to fifteen minutes on that single quarter- far, FAR better than I usually did. Mom was less than impressed with my story of pinball domination.

Mom's NEVER get it! Lol!

One of the greatest pinball machines of all time. I remember when a group of my buddies saw that the first time and heard about the Magna Save! Plus the classic Williams sound effects did not disappoint. It was like Firepower on steroids.

This was a refined Firepower.

This machine made me permanently switch from using my index fingers to middle fingers for the flipper buttons, because of the Magna-Save buttons.

One thing that stands out in my memory about The Dark Knight is how friggin loud it was! It was awesome!

Wow, after almost 40 years, I now realize that the Black Knight wanted to "slay" you, not "play" you...

i am 55yrs Old . Once I Got 9,356,350 Points On This Pinball Table. One Of My Favs!!!!

This guy is a good player, this table is not a very forgiving one.

All of the high scores on this machine at the local bowling alley, were held by someone with the initials LSD

Oh boy this brings back memories I loved this table back when I was a teen

One of the easiest machines to play back in the day... when we were skint we'd go on Black Knight because you'd be on there for ages... a blast from the past!

I remember playing this at S.O.S. at 8th and Gordon Sts. in Allentown, Pa. Oh the memories! Mike T., this video's for you, R.I.P.!!

My grandpa had this game, Eldorado the city of gold and two dime bingo machines he fixed pinball machines in his prime, when He passed away the pinball machines were inherited to me and black knight was inherited to my cousin before a lot of things happened in his life where he couldn't take it with him/keep it so me and my parents kept it for him. Sadly as time went on the pinball machines started getting wear and tear that required repair and my parents couldn't afford to fix them so sadly we had to sell them to a person who collected and fixed/sold pinball machines ,where ever you are now Black knight, and Eldorado I hope your repaired and being played and bringing joy to those who are playing you.

My dad's high school buddy owned this pinball machine. Lots of fun on this machine was had while I was playing it.

holding three balls on one flipper... impressive... best PB game, ever!

We had this game in our house when I was a kid!! So many memories!! And a great game.

Played this frequently at Ali Baba's Cave in Lewiston Maine circa 1980 or so.

Seriously? I was there at the same time! I lived in Lisbon Falls and we went to Lewiston frequently. I remember Ali Baba's!

Easily the best table from my youth.

The bell rings and the floor vibrates. This game freaked me out man!

*Odd, at the **6:15** mark the player sent the ball through the left ramp when the EXTRA BALL was lit and wasn't awarded the extra ball. That gets lit when you drop both sets of upper drop targets 3x and EXTRA BALL lights and by sending the ball through the left ramp you can see the light go out but the game died after he lost the 3 ball multi-ball.*

I believe this is a setting to award points instead of an EB

MAGNA-SAVE!!!

Epic sounds and speakers. Very recognizable by its sounds in the arcade.

It brings back some teenage memories! I was 17 when This machine was released!

If I spent as much time in class as I spent playing this machine in my dorm, I might have graduated from college ....

If you ever played "David's Midnight Magic" on a Commodore 64, this layout may seem REALLY familiar :-)

My friends and I spent many hours playing this game in our local bar, and in 1987 I even bought one for two hundred bucks! I can still play this game on line! It turns out that several years ago I paid for it on the "Pinball Arcade" website! - It was "grandfathered" over to me after they eliminated all Williams games. But there's no way to activate the Magna-save on my desk top.

Plugs in early models didn't pinlocks so if u plugged in wrong u cooked the board. N costs a lot of moolah st the time

I recently played this right after bk sword of rage and it is just amazing how different the speed of play is. I love both, to be fair

Great souvenirs, tks man

i really wanted to hear the song

good stuff!!

Learned some paddle tech from this. Thanks!

Think this is Karl playing here; very well done sir. This looks like it has a new PF and plastics and its playing in great condition. Sadly Its gone now, I wonder what happened to this incredible BK. Thanks for the vid. -Mitch

The sound effects really reminded me of Space Cadet

1:14 sick dead drop

I have that machine

What ROM version does your machine have? The Bell acts different than mine.... I like your bell sound better.

Well done, massive ball 3. Flippers might need to be rebuilt, the right cant hit the left ramp; or maybe its from the coil getting hot and losing some power. -Mitch

I thought that as well. Either that or they've got the incline jacked up too high.

Great game

Catfished by KZread Suggestions... Thought this was Sword of Rage!

Der erster Flipper mit 2 ebenen.

Stressful beast, but it doesn't seem to offer much gameplay apart from multiball and targets.

For the era it was released in. It's pretty loaded compaired to the other early SS machines that were still using EM playfield layouts. Gorgar is pretty popular but it's essentially a dressed up EM with sound clips.
