Ari [APz] Sovijärvi<p>I&#39;m investigating ball trough issue on Jackbot. I haven&#39;t seen this kind of repair approach yet. I guess I can&#39;t fault it either, I bought the game in &#39;02 and this has been in it before that. <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pinball</span></a> <a href="https://mstdn.games/tags/pinrepair" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#<span>pinrepair</span></a></p>

gene x<p>accomplished some things this past weekend by making the B-division playoffs at Pinburgh and getting a perfect round medal as well!

Out of Print Archive (meppi64)<p>A little tip for the people who have never tried this before. </p><p>Pull your joycons off, flip the Switch on its side, but any of the pinball games in vertical mode and play it like you have a mini virtual cab right in front of you. </p><p>You’d be amazed at how great this feels. </p><p>Pinball FX is a free download btw and comes with the incredible Fish Takes table </p><p><a href="https://retro.pizza/tags/pinball" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>pinball</span></a></p>
