@jeriellsworth I meant in this game particularly. I'm fully aware of the utility of this gimmick however it needs to actually add to the overall game play and purpose. How does this work to enhance this game, alter/benefit the game play?
This is awesome. A funny sound drop for starting the multiball woudl be, "Not only will you get one pinball..but wait, there's more! 2 pinballs for the price of one. MULTIBALL!!!"
Here's an idea: When the ball lands in the chair, there's an electromagnet under it and when you hit the chair an accelerometer or something senses the jolt and releses the elctromagnet. Just a thought :P
make the botton (the foot rest ) of the chair into a flipper to kick the ball
use the kicker assembly that came with the old style pinballs that had the rubber band bumpers and lights (usually above and to the right and left the bottom flippers)
I'm with you on that. The ball has to be put there some how. A solenoid should be put under/in the chair that would be fired when the couch is rattled. That way when and if you load up the couch the game continues, but if you lose your last ball the solenoid kicks the lazy ball out of the chair so the next player has to load it up again.
Love the chair, brilliant! How about having the leg rest be a kicker? Do you have a plan for the leg rest? As Seen On TV is becoming all growed up! Enjoying watching it take shape. Thanks Jeri! See you in the chat room. -Plexar
Are you going to put a solenoid under the recliner to actuate it at the end of the game?
A living room is a pretty novel design. It looks great!

Ok, how or why does storing the ball enhance the play of the game?

@HaikuAutomation It's like any other lock in a pinball. Stall the ball somewhere and deliver another for multiball.

@HaikuAutomation It is like in Whirlwind Pinball, where you can store them in the cellar. :)

Lame, but totally fitting to the theme.

use the old style kicker that was in the sides and had the rubber tube and lights to power the foot rest (great spot for a ball flipper!)

What if you lose you first ball by tying to knock if out of the chair? Then you're in a wrong state, how do you get the ball out?

Ow i think i understood it wrong, the extra ball is always in the chair.... :)

@mrtroy you also don't want 2 or balls to get stuck there with no way for the game to able to force it out.
