Re: WTB Fish tales or Wolrd Cup Soccer

World cup soccer is a nice game. I played it for the first time at the Ottawa pinball show and loved it. If I wasn't invested into a STLE I would have tried to buy it.

Do you remember who had it for sale?

It was Warlock's game and I enabled someone who bought it already :)

I always seem to be missing these two titles by a week.

I didn't know these were on your radar or wish list so I promise you if I come across one expect a PM from me.

Re: WTB Fish tales or Wolrd Cup Soccer

Of the two of these, both of which I have owned and loved, World Cup is an amazing package, but the game play got predictable for us since it's fairly linear and easier to achieve. Fish Tales, which I never thought would be a keeper has become a favourite because it's not an easy game to master, and because its modes can be achieved in a non-linear fashion. I can't help tapping my foot to the music now. :FP:

Re: WTB Fish tales or Wolrd Cup Soccer

I never really enjoyed Fish Tales (not a huge Mark Ritchie fan) until I played it with lightning flippers at Adriano's. It plays much better with those.. VERY fast.

Does FT not have EOS switches too Brock? :lol:

Fish Tales are suppose to have lightning flippers from the factory and yes I enjoyed playing Adriano's too! It cleaned up real nice "as is" from his latest container buy and in queue for restore after he does Cactus Canyon and/or TOTAN.

It does, yes.. though from what I can recall you can actually play the game without them :p

I know, but many lightning-flipper games got switched out for regular flippers. Lightning flipper replacements were hard to come by until recently. I had never actually played one with the proper flippers until I tried Adriano's.

And that's one of the reasons I want one of those pins.... I want a challenge and speed.

World Cup features lots of "breaks" in the action to further the game's narrative. Of the two Fish Tales is far by far a faster game (particularly with the boat and turn about making a very risking short field) with the occasional ball whizzing by you to the drains leaving you saying "Whot! No! Where! Whoh."

Yeah I saw, just don't trust the product he's selling.

Very wise decision...in the words of Menace.."one minute the boat ramp will be there, the next minute it's gone"! :FP:

Too bad he can't make pins disappear from your storage to my basement.
