famousringo said: I'm still trying to locate a copy. T_T A lot of people who know their pinball call it the best pinball sim ever on a console. I'm pretty seriously into pinball, so I really want this. I wish they'd make the motion responsive enough to let you do a bang back. They never let you pull that off in the simulators.

 

I looked for a month before I found it. A GameStop employee told me the reason why they didn't have it was because it was exclusive to Best Buy and Amazon. It's worth the search, or just use the VGChartz Amazon Widget...

I wish they let you use wiimote motion control for pulling the plunger. Instead they use they stick on the nunchuck. I guess that could be added as a very slight con but gameplay is so good it really doesn't matter.

Hey, this game is showing up in" Bestsells in VG Chartz store". Wonder if someone decided to buy it from this thread. (Surprised to see the gamecube version of Zelda TP in the list though).

Even more interesting is that if you ordered it yesterday it came from Amazon, today it comes from an outside vendor (not Best Buy, so it's obviously NOT Best Buy exclusive). Which means Amazon sold out, good for a great title. And they usually restock in a day or so (good for those interested in the free shipping option).

Am I the only person in the thread to have played this? Love to see what kind of scores others are getting, I just got over 17 million on Funhouse.

I'd now love to see any of these machines somewhere and see if the physics are as accurate as they seem to be. It really feels almost like playing the original machines, and I've played all of those except for 1. And they all play well here. Even the magnasave option looks accurate to original chacteristics of ball play.

Odd, this game is now in the Amazon overall top ten selling games. That's great and it deserves it, but I still see no ads or press for it at all. This site shows 0 sales as well.

I played a lot of Pinball Fantasies/Dreams when I was a kid, but since I started playing a lot of real pinball it's no fun. The pinball emulators can be OK, though.

OMG Halo killer alert !

I bought this game at Costco for $15.99 yesterday. Don't expect to see it anywhere else for that price, though, as Costco is known as one of the best places for gaming prices. Maybe your Costco still has a copy, though. I have yet to play it due to college :( I hope to play it tonight for a few min.

That's a great deal. What is the usual savings at Costco?

Well, at $20, Zelda TP was a great deal.

$5-6 off Wii games but some are more, High School Musical is $42. Same deals for PS2 games. DS games are off $3-$5 for new and off $5-$10 for old. 360 games are $5-$10 off. Costco sometime has the buy 2 games together packs of usually DS or Wii games for $30. GH3 for all systems is $10 off. There is almost no PSP or PS3 selection. Costo also has specials and rebates on games like every other store. The in store selection is better than the online selection. Costco has great prices on most things but I wouldn't join ($50 per year) just to buy games. You could do just as well buying your games used on Amazon 4 months after they come out.

Edit, we do carry plenty of PS3 games.
