"Big Bang Bar" - Capcom Pinball Repro, 2007 (unboxing and review)

[8Complex]

Thanks for making this fantastic video! Really a great overview of the game.

I was involved in the designing of this game, and I haven't seen it since it was being assembled on the line! Unfortunately, I'm a long drive from you, otherwise I'd be begging at a chance to come by and play it!

Glad to see it was reproduced for enthusiasts, and they did a pretty damn great looking job of it, too.

[Ferny84]

How much do you think machine #1 would sell for?

[spida1a]

@Ferny84 Ha ha. Wow. That's a good question. I'm afraid to ask. Lol. Thanks for watching.

[johan123326]

i played a big bang bar

it's a very very very very cool machine.

it's weird that's not in the top ten on ipdb.org

[spida1a]

@johan123326 Thanks for watching!

[johan123326]

@spida1a your movies are great!

[ChrisMolyneaux93]

That waitress kinda sounds like Lois from Family Guy.

[spida1a]

@ChrisMolyneaux93 Yeah! Totally. Thanks for watching!

[elosevilla]

Excellent pinball and excelent video, congratulations for sharing them with us!!!! Your friends must be proud of you, sincerely.

[spida1a]

@ThePinballSmith Of course my friend. Sure! :)

[nlafavore]

So it was YOUR Big Bang Bar that was used in the P3 Tournament at Rochester 2008!

[spida1a]

@nlafavore Ha ha! Yes it was! I donated it to the tournament (and also brought my Taxi to the show in the free-play area). ;)

[drunkeykong12]

Ok, thanx. Hopefully I will be able to find some good pics of the head side art somewhere. The cabinet work I can get, I just have to clean it up and improve the quality of the images abit. Thanks again eric

[drunkeykong12]

Hi Chris, I was wondering if it would be possible to get High res pics of the sideart and Head art of your BBB. I am working on a Pinball project and can't find any good quality photo's anywhere. I want to Incorperate some of the art from BBB into my project. If you could help that would be awesome, if not, thanks anyways and keep up the great vids. DK aka Eric.

[spida1a]

@drunkeykong12 Hi Eric! Unfortunately I do not have my BBB with me at the moment (they are all in storage as I moved to Manhattan). I don't have any high-rez stuff to give you. Sigh!!!!!

:(

[sae887]

@spida1a haha u got creative with this vid

[djargus]

@spida1a I hope you make a trip to Asbury Park one day (or maybe you already have) for the pinball museum. I am in the town next door to there and have a membership there (if you give me a heads up, I can get you in for free as my guest for the day). You make great videos and I enjoy them. I hope your move to Manhattan went well and I hope your machines will follow you along shortly. :) Take care.

[spida1a]

@djargus Hey, thanks my friend.  I would love to go someday! :)

[crocodile2linux]

I like this review. Very funny.

[spida1a]

@crocodile2linux Thanks my friend!

[Dsvkb]

Nice video! I heard about you through Pete's channel, and I'm impressed! Your videos that I've seen so far have been top notch, and look professional! I subscribed, and definitely look forward to more videos from you!

[spida1a]

@Dsvkb Thanks a lot. I appreciate it. I wish I had time so I could put as my effort into the vids today like I did when I created this one. Ha ha. :)

Thanks again!

[xhardwarex]

Chris, Think I seen you playing the CV I bought at Pinfest., or maybe you were playing Scared Stiff. Should have introduced myself. Great Video!

[spida1a]

@xhardwarex Hey! Yes, that was probably me. I haven't played a CV since I sold mine about eight years ago. It was fun digging into it again.

Congrats on the purchase!! :)

[dogmd7]

Great video... well done.

[spida1a]

@dogmd7 Thanks a ton!

[TheWiiHackerz]

You mention that you were let down by some "minor" stuff but you never state what they were. So what exactly let you down in the game?

Also now that you had the game for a few years do you consider this one a keeper?

[spida1a]

@TheWiiHackerz They aren't really worth mentioning..mostly just things in the "rules" of the game. I like it a lot. I rarely get to play any of my games (since I mostly stopped collecting about 2008) so I can't really say right now. It definitely gets OLD, just like they all do. As for a keeper, I would love it to be (as its unique and wonderful). :)

[spida1a]

@HornetFellow Thanks a lot. Obviously, this one and the Family Guy one were HUGE projects (verses the impromptu ones I do now). I wish I had the time to do indepth stuff like this for everything. Ha ha.

Thanks for watching!

[123doomdoom]

love it!!! your videos warm my heart!

[spida1a]

@123doomdoom Yay! I feel like I am doing some good in the world. Ha ha. :)

[simplyvk]

It is ironic that u seen rocky 3 during/after my last comment lol..this review was just to awesome, very very humorous, again, detailed info n your acting was just perfect. The way u were sleepin at the begining was histerical. I died laughing at the Looped in space mode..locked balls in their mouths haha..I also died laughing at one of your friends comment on the green erotic dancer: at my age, the color doesnt matter, green, purple **ookk lets move on..haha..histerical!!

[spida1a]

@simplyvk LOL!  :)

[spida1a]

@sygo7g Ah, yes. Data East Simpsons. Good little game. I played that and Back to the Future side-by-side waaaaaaay back in the day.  Ha ha. :)

[TheNukedgamer]

ahh man i wish i had a pinball machine!

Great video!

[spida1a]

@TheNukedgamer Thanks for watching!

[BarbieOnWeed]

You're videos of Pinball and TurboGrafx 16 är the best on youtube!

[spida1a]

@BarbieOnWeed Hey, thanks a lot BarbieOnWeed!  :) :)

[metalcoola]

Thank you for another great and funny video,Pinball look really beautiful

[spida1a]

@metalcoola Thanks metacoola.  As always, I appreciate it!

[boverhof3]

Hate pinball, love the videos.

[spida1a]

@boverhof3 Why do you hate pinball? Just curious of the reason.

Thanks for watching, as always!

[Konuvis]

Wow that looks like a really really fun machine! I love the Space Quest vibe.

[spida1a]

@Konuvis It is really fun. I like it. :)

Thanks!

[TheLumberjackass]

lmao at the tube dancer !! that is excellent !!

ive never seen this pinball game before but i love it just by looking at this vid. would love to play it, but something tells me its ultra rare. great vid tho dude !!

[spida1a]

@TheLumberjackass Ha ha. Yeah...not the easiest in the world to find in order to "play" (since there are under 200 of them out there). Thanks as always

[futurematt5]

Fantastic video!! Wow you realy are a pinball head. More so than a Turbografx head??!

[spida1a]

@futurematt5 Ha ha. Total pinhead! Totally! :)

Hmm....I'm not sure which one I am the bigger nerd at. Ha ha!!

[MrDebauch]

hey that was great, what an excellent film

[spida1a]

@MrDebauch Thanks a lot. I spent a lot of time on it a few years ago and...I'm glad to share it.

[phoenixlich]

i had no idea capcom even made pinball games! thats cool! it's also cool that you got one of only a very few! luckiest guy i know!

[spida1a]

@phoenixlich Yes, it was a subsidiary of Capcom that developed pinball here in the US. Many of the people who ran the thing were actually ex-Williams employees (such as Mark Ritchie). They didn't make many games overall because of various reasons, but they were really doing a great job (and it almost is a shame they weren't allowed to move forward farther, you know?).

Thanks for watching!

[paridisegrowth]

loves it

[spida1a]

@paridisegrowth Ha ha. We need a "love" button here, eh? :)

Thanks a lot!

[fvgotch]

Wow... very well made thorough review on this machine. Great job!

[spida1a]

@fvgotch Thanks a lot. I'm glad you enjoy it!!

[condeszadek]

Yesterday I played the simpson's pinball machine, but I suck in Pinball, i think, i need to practice, any recomendations to improve my skills? Anyway, good video, greetings from Mexico.

[spida1a]

@condeszadek Which Simpsons game did you play? Simpsons Pinball Party? If so....that is not an easy table by any means. So, don't beat yourself up too much. It's a complex one. Ha ha. :) :)

To improve just keep practicing. Maybe find someone who has some games so you can play for "free' (and not waste a TON of money practicing, ha ha).

Thanks!

[TheLoadingScreenz]

Where was this uploaded first? Great video BTW.

[spida1a]

@TheLoadingScreenz I uploaded it here first back in 2007 originally. :)

[TheLoadingScreenz]

@spida1a Oh I see, I couldn't find it on your channel that's why I was wondering. I thought you would have put it on a different website or something. :P

[TwigsInc]

That machine looks amazing. I am very jealous of this one. :D

[spida1a]

@TwigsInc It is a fun little game. It's just neat having something..."very rare" and special. You know?  Ha ha.

Thanks for watchin'!

[nlafavore]

@spida1a Yeah, I've only played it on Virtual Pinball. I'd have to go to your house just to play it!

[nick12882]

why are you reposting all of these videos?

[spida1a]

@nick12882 As I said in my description, because of the higher-quality YouTube has now (and also, I don't have to split it into two anymore).

[nick12882]

@spida1a gotcha! makes sense looks great quality now.

[spida1a]

@nick12882 Actually, this version of BBB is a couple minutes longer (with more interviews) than the one I originally posted. Otherwise, it's the same.

Truthfully, part of me almost didn't re-upload them because I HATE the way I look. But, at least the quality is better now. Ha ha.

Thanks!

[nick12882]

@spida1a no problem man. I have a pinball machine myself 1978 "vegas" cocktail pin made by game plan.

[spida1a]

@nick12882 Oh yeah? Cool. I haven't seen that one before I don't believe. 

[nick12882]

@spida1a I am not sure of rarity of cocktail pins.

[TopGHZ]

has this video ever been on your channel before, i remember seeing this... i think.

[spida1a]

@TopGHZ Yes.
