Pete the games were originally Pinbots.

Turbo yes it was on the block unlocked last night

Oldskool I can't tell you how we did the custom sounds but they were a prototype unit

The sounds were done using one of my dual MP3 sound boards.
Replacement Pinball PCBs that remain faithful to the originals

 Yes the secrets out  &&   The sounds were added using Mikes prototype EM soundboards.   They make a wonderful addition to any game.

  The soundboards come with two SD memory cards one for background sounds and one for your game sounds.

      Being for the block we had to have the block theme song playing which after a few hours of it playing I was ready to drill out my ears so we decided to add buttons so the theme music starts each ball hen with the front door buttons select another song. 

     A huge thanks goes to Mike for getting these boards to us so promptly even with everything else he has going on and can still help out others your a bloody legend Mike

Ohhhh... I think I just got it now! Are these the machines you said you wanted two System 11s for a month or two ago, Dan? I just recognised it as being Pinbot from that video you posted.

Glad you didn't gut some High Speeds instead ;)

Yes it seems the Cow has returned from pasture.  Not sure why when he made it quite clear what he thinks of AP on Pinside.

Dan, any idea what they will be doing with the machines now the series has finished?  Will they be staying put in there?

All 4 games have been allocated
Scotty gets one
A producer gets another
A former contestant purchased one
And one was given as a prize to an advertising company
