I love this effect, because it makes you think you really accomplished something when the machine goes nuts. Elvira's 'Scared Stiff' pinball machine manipulates this same effect. Does anyone know of any other machines that do a similar 'fake shut down, then machine goes hyper' to indicate the start of Wizard Mode?
@JimHawkwind03411 Attack from Mars doesn't quite go hyper, but it stops for a few seconds after beating the wizard mode and then all of the sudden you hear "YOU RULE THE UNIVERSE!!!!" and then "FIIIIIIIVE BILLIOOOOOON!!!!"
That would honestly make me think that I've just broken the machine or something. If you've ever played a pin with a less-than-reliable power grid, a machine just going out like that usually means it just reset on you. ...And with a score as high as this guy had, that machine would've been kicked around a bit. :P

I would also like to say that machines with modes that just light everything are awesome. Black Knight, Twilight Zone, Addams Family, etc.

@djargus Here's what I can think of:
*Jurassic Park's "System Failure"
*LOTR: After beating "Destroy the Ring"
*The Shadow: After beating "Final Battle"

That is an unbelievable score, even for a 5-ball game. I wonder what his final score was?

About 4,1 billion,5 balls.

@homebarpinball 4,1 billion is a lot. Good game.
