Williams Hyper Ball on e-Bay project game
« on: August 31, 2011, 11:41:21 PM »
Had thoughts about bidding on this game, looks complete but the parts for the cannon look like its missing.
Played Hyper ball once and thought it was not a bad game.

I think it would fit in with a larger collection as something different. Definitely not pinball, but a bit of fun nevertheless.

Everyone i know who has owned or do own this machine reckon its a blast... must admit, ive wanted one for a bloody long time.
They are noisy though and if you look up Hyperball , any restoration recommends lining the inside of the machine with carpet to dull the noise down.
From what i can see cos Marks pics are always so crap.. this looks complete to me.
Better hope my customers dont settle their outstanding invoices Daniel, cos you might have some competition... besides... i still havent forgiven you for the gun game!  !*! !*!

I would need to know in what shape is the Screw-thing that lifts the balls from under the playfield

There's some info on the common problems (and there are many) with this game here - http://www.edcheung.com/album/album07/Pinball/hyperball.htm

I think it is more of a novelty machine, or a talking point more than a pinball machine.

I only want it for. Different challenge and something different for the shed.
